“As I began to pedal, Luis jumped on the back seat. “I wish I could stay here forever,” I said. “But I can’t.” I could feel his breath hot on my nape. I wished he would wrap his arms around me and never ever let go. Pain was like a beast caged in my heart. I wanted to tell him that I liked him, or that I already loved him.”
Danton Remoto, Riverrun

“I envied the river that tongued his body. I watched him swim farther and farther away from me, until his hair had become one with the sound of the rain.”
Danton Remoto, Riverrun

“He laughed, and began wading into the water. I was torn between lust and the fear of drowning. Perhaps, I thought at that moment, they’re the same?”
Danton Remoto, Riverrun
