Wings of Tomorrow
I realized that i've only read until Chapter 6 so i'll say what i think about the subsequent entries.
Chapter 7 was incredible. Jaden's admission of his weakness says something about his character while Hitomi's show of support and comfort for Jaden was really touching, a sign that even the most uncaring people can show some emotion for others in need. As Grimlok said, the rain was a really nice touch. Hearing Hitomi curse again was a good counterpoint to the compassion she showed earlier. Parang may pagka-schizo tuloy sya.
Chapter 8 showed just how much Jaden has come to care about Hitomi. Risking your life to save someone else is a really noble thing and what Jaden did was nothing short of heroic. That kiss afterwards seems like it came from some movie but i can't place my finger on it. Not romantic but still has a good bit of WAFF.
Chapter 9 was good but a bit of a let-down. I really thought they would get around to confessing their love, just like in the movies but all i find was awkwardness. Parang may pagka-torpe tuloy si Jaden, haha. Seriously, the awkward part was realistic. Most people would continue kissing but seeing as how screwed-up the two's childhoods were (the conversation in chapter 4), love may be a bit difficult to come by. At least they did realize that they had something between them. Hah, Beauty and the Beast nga talaga!
)
Chapter 10 was the longest chapter yet. Again, i find that the first scenes in which Jaden and Hitomi think about their feelings was like something from out of a movie again. I must say that the part in which Hitomi was thinking about her childhood was rather sad, it actually made me tear up a bit. Afterwards, the part in which Hitomi kisses Jaden seems a bit OOC for her. The line Jaden said after the kiss seems a bit clich
