Shaking my hand I put the cellphone in my bag, suddenly my brain went blank on what to do. I was just thinking of going home and not worrying about the entrance exam because of mama's shout on the phone that made me nervous.Dave looked at me, frowning. I know at times it is pale. I am restless and I want to go home at these times.“What happened? You look nervous…” Dave said worriedly to me, he held my hand which was cold with nervousness."I want to go home." That was all I could say and he nodded.He talked to them Syrien, I just didn't pay attention to that because I wanted to go home to Pangasinan right away. AC came up to me and hugged me, as well as Syrien and Ty

It's August and the grade 12 STEM students will be camping. I don't know if it's just us because I haven't heard from HUMSS students. I decided not to go, but when I told my mother, she forced me to go camping. I had no one to talk to there, except Syrien. I also don't enjoy what's happening because almost all my classmates don't like me. "I'll buy you a tent later, so come along." Mama forced me to kiss her on the cheek. I was about to go to school and every time I go to school she reminds me the camping. I snorted and ignored what she said. I saw Dave heading towards me, but I had already met him halfway towards my house. "Did you eat already?" I asked. He nodded at me and helped me walk. The road wa

I don't know if I am being too dramatic or what. I suddenly hugged Dave who’s waiting outside the door of our house. I know he was surprised at what I did. He also hugged me and felt his lips on my head."Are you done?" I nodded at his question, he gently stroked my hair.I pressed my head to his chest, he's wearing a hoodie and nightgown pants. He is also carrying a plastic bag. I am addicted to his smell, I will never get tired of smelling him for the rest of my life."I contacted your groupmates, others responded to my message." I looked up at him. I couldn't see his face, but I know he's mad."You shouldn't have done that... that is not your business." I rolled my eyes, he caressed my cheek and gently sque

22 | SHSMy senior high school journey began last month. I’ve been a STEM student for a month and I’ll admit I’m having a hard time. It is twice tiring than in junior high school, it's a good thing this semester didn't include basic chemistry subject. Right now, pre-calculus is the most difficult subject, but somehow I'm able to cope. Next sem, I will have a basic chemistry. It's good then because I'm sure I'll go crazy.Dave, on the other hand, always take me and picks me up in school. We also always eat together even though we are now in different sections and strands.My classmate is Syrien, while Dave and AC are classmates. Alex took ABM, if I hadn’t met her the last time, I wouldn’t have known. Dave also had no idea what his cousin had taken."Does anyone know who owns this paper? There is no name." My oral communication teacher said, many of my classmates looked at the paper, but no one knew. "I know your strand is diffic

Dave arrived in the house at evening, still accompanied by Sirius and AC. Tyra can't go because maybe her family are on vacation in japan. They go there every year, so I have no problem if she can’t go to my birthday.Dave is carrying a cake and a paper bag with Cartier on it. He kissed my mother's hand and bowed to my father as a show of respect. Syrien gave me a gallon of ice cream, while AC gave me a basket full of fruits.Dave opened the box of cake, mama lit the candle and they started singing happy birthday.Ofcourse, before I blow the cake, I have to wish first. I looked at Dave who’s smiling at me now, I sparingly smiled at him.I closed my eyes.Today, I wish that my family and friends a good health and, I wish that I will reach my dreams with him... with Dave, my friends and my family.We ate dinner together, my mother asked many questions to my friends especially AC. Dad remained silent and sometimes adds question as well.

There are things that I've prayed before but it didn't happen, but there are also things that I didn't pray for but it happened.I didn’t expect Dave to come into my life, I didn’t even prayed that someone else would like me. I always There are things that I've prayed before but it didn't happen, but there are also things that I didn't pray but it happened.I didn’t expect Dave to come into my life, I didn’t even pray that someone else would like me. I always have in mind and I pray for the good health of my family and Tyra because she was my only friend, back then.When Dave came into my life, I thought he was one of the people who would add to my suffering. Every day I experience the pain caused by people's insults, I also cried every day then. But he came, it stopped. That pain stopped, I lost track of people’s insults, because he always keeps me reminded that I’m beautiful, that I have value, and that I deserve to be loved by other people too.I'm afr

Agad ko chineck ang profile ng comment niya at nadismaya sa nakita. It wasn't him, it was from a fan of mine, who appreciates my songs. Mabilis ang pagkauwi namin sa Pilipinas, sinalubong ako ng mga fans na tawag ko ay dishwashers dahil sa Joy ang pangalan ko. They gave me a lot of things, such as teddy bears and clothes. Some gave me food and cute things.Madaling araw palang pero ang dami na nag-abang. Hindi nagtagal ang pakikipag-usap ko sa mga fans dahil may aasikasuhin pa akong endorsement mamayang hapon. Hance reminded me to sleep and get ready before the contract signing of my new endorsement. Halos hindi ko na nagawang kamustahin ang kapatid pagkauwi sa sobrang pagod, hindi niya na rin ako makausap dahil abala siguro siya sa kaniyang projects sa kaniyang school. Hindi pa nag-iisang oras ang tulog ko ng may tumawag. Galing iyon kay Syrien, kaya kahit hindi ko maibuka ang isa kong mata dahil sa antok ay sinagot ko pa r

Dalawang taon simula ng magkacollege ako ay wala akong ginawa kung hindi mag-aral ng mabuti. Sa dalawang taon na iyon ay napabilang ako sa Dean Lister, hindi na ako nagtaka ro'n. Knowing that i put all of my hardwork and perseverance to finished my school task. Hindi na nakakataka, pero hindi ko rin maiwasang mangamba. In the past 2 years, inabala ko rin ang sarili sa paghahanap ng trabaho. Syrien build a coffee shop near at my university. Kaming dalawa ni AC ang empleyado na nag-aasikaso tuwing umaga, sa gabi ni naman ay si Kuya Renz at si Syrien kung may libreng oras. "Joy! Paturo naman ako sa solution nito. Nakakabobo mag engineering pwede bang maging patatas nalang?" Natawa ako sa sinabi ni Claire, isa sa kaklase ko. Pumayag ako sa gusto niya, mabuti na lang at wala gaanong customer sa coffee shop at hindi ako gaanong napagod, kahit papaano ay nakakapag-isip pa ako ng maayos. Ang kapatid kong si Jun ay kahit papaano ay nakakarecover na sa nangyari sa mag

“Ma!” tawag ko kay mama na kasalukuyang nasa labas ng presinto, napalingon siya sa gawi namin kaya naman napabilis ang paglakad ko papunta sa kaniya. Ang hawak-hawak kong si Jun ay tumahan na. Nang lumapit ako kay mama ay mahigpit niya akong niyakap, sa yakap niyang iyon ay sunod-sunod ng dumaloy ang luhang kanina pang bumabadyang tumulo sa aking pisngi, my heart felt warm as well suffocated. Nanghihina ako sa nangyari, nanghihina ako sa kalagayan ni mama. “Ang papa… Ang papa mo…” paulit-ulit na sambit niya, marahan kong hinagod ang kaniyang likod. “Nakulong siya… pinakulong…” aniya ngunit hindi niya matuloy ang sinasabi dahil sa paghikbi. Narinig kong tumunog ang cellphone ni Dave, napalingon ako sa kaniya. Kunot noo niyang pinapakinggan ang kung sino mang tumawag sa kaniyang cellphone. While Syrien stayed silent while watching us. While watching the tragedy that happened to my family. Pinanunasahan ko ang a

Nanginginig ang kamay kong nilagay ang cellphone sa bag ko, bigla nablanko ang utak ko sa gagawin. Iniisip ko na lang na umuwi at hindi alalahanin ang entrance exam dahil sa sigaw ni mama sa telepono na nakapagpakaba sa akin. Napatingin sa a kin si Dave, napakunot ang noo niya. Alam ko sa mga oras na ito ay namumutla. Hindi ako mapakali at gusto ko ng umuwi sa mga oras na ito. “What happened? Mukha kang kinakabahan…” Nag-alalang sabi sa akin ni Dave, hinawakan niya ang kamay kong nalalamig sa kaba.“Gusto ko ng umuwi.” Iyon lamang ang nasabi ko at tumango siya. Kinausp niya sila Syrien, hindi ko na lamang pinagtuunan ng pansin iyon dahil sa kagustuhang umuwi na kaagad ng Pangasinan. Lumapit sa akin si AC at niyakap ako, pati na rin si Syrien at Tyra. “Saan ba Dave ang sakayan rito papuntang Pangasinan? Yung isang byahe lang sana para hindi nakakapagod pang maghanap ng sasakyan…” “

Buwan ng agosto at magkakaroon ng camping ang grade 12 STEM students, hindi ko alam kung sa amin lang ang mayroon dahil wala akong nabalitaang kasama ang mga HUMSS student. Napagdesisyunan ko ng hindi ako sasama, pero ng ibalita ko iyon kay mama ay pinilit niya akong sumama. Wala akong makakausap doon, maliban kay Syrien. Hindi ko rin naman maeenjoy ang mga nangyayari dahil halos lahat ng kaklase ko ay hindi ako gusto. "Mamaya bibilhan kita ng tent, kaya sumama ka." Pamimilit sa akin ni mama ng humalik ako sa pisngi niya, papasok na ako ng school at kada pagpasok ko sa eskwelahan ay pinapaalala niya anng camping. Ngumuso ako at hindi pinansin ang ibinalita niya. Natanaw ko si Dave na papunta sa bahay, ngunit nakasalubong ko na siya at hindi na tumuloy sa bahay. "Kumain ka na?" Tanong ko, tumango siya sa akkin at inalalayan sa paglalakad. May pagkalubak pa ang daanan sa amin kaya minsan ay natatapilok ako."Sandwich lang, papunta rito.

I don't know if i am being too dramatic or what. Niyakap ko bigla si Dave na naghihintay sa labas ng pintuan ng bahay namin. Alam kong nagulat siya sa inaakto ko. Niyakap niya rin ako at naramdaman ang pagpatak ng halim niya sa aking ulo. "Are you done?" Tumango ako sa tanong niya, hinaplos niya ng marahan ang aking buhok.Siniksik ko ang ulo ko sa dibdib niya, he's wearing a hoodie and night gown pants. May dala rin siyang plastic bag. I am really addicted in his smell, parang hindi ako magsasawang amuyin iyon habang buhay. "I contacted your groupmates, ang iba ay sumagot naman sa naging mensahe ko." Tumingala ako sa kaniya. I couldn't clearly see his face, but i know he's mad. "Hindi mo na dapat ginawa yun... that is not your business." Umirap ako, hinaplos niya ang pisngi ko at marahan pinisil yun. "Nagawa ko na eh..." he reasoned, mas humigpit ang yakap ko sa kaniya. "I bought you some banana milk, just incase you are ha
