"Erin, come on! Make it fast, you're wasting our time." My sister shouted from downstairs.

"Yes, coming!" I shouted back while putting on my sweater.

"God, mahuhuli tayo sa flight natin dahil sa 'yo!" Sigaw na naman ni Ate Zaf. There's no need for her to shout kaya. At nakakairita na rin ang boses niya.

"Iiwan na talaga kita, Zephyrine. Ang bagal mo talaga kumilos. " Naiinis na si Ate kaya bumaba na ako.

Papunta na kami sa airport pero ang ingay pa rin ni Ate habang panay ang tingin sa relo niya. Pinapagalitan pa ako kasi nga ang bagal ko kumilos. Kung mahuhuli raw kami sa flight namin, iiwan niya talaga dito sa Manila. God, nakakairita eh paulit ulit lang naman ang sinasabi niya!

"Ate, pwede bang manahimik ka muna? You're ruining our day. Umagang umaga sinisira mo ang mood ko. Chill ka lang, okay?" I told her.

"Chill? Look at the time, it's almost ten! Alas onse ang flight natin!" Inis niyang hinagis sa direksyon ko ang travel pillow na hawak niya.

"Aray! Baka masira ang makeup ko, Ate. Mapanakit ka talaga kahit kailan." I groaned before checking my face on my handheld mirror.

"You're just eighteen yet you're obsessed with makeups." She rolled her eyes.

"I'm already eighteen kaya hindi na ako bata. I am free to do whatever I want kahit lagyan ko pa ng paint ang mukha ko."

"Try mo nga." Paghahamon niya sa akin.

"Okay. Magugulat ka na lang isang araw may paint na ang mukha ko." Ngumisi ako.

"You're such a rebel." She rolled her eyes and told the driver to drive faster. Gusto niya bang paliparin ni Manong Rico ang sasakyan? Fifteen minutes na lang makakarating na kami sa airport, she's just overreacting.

I'm sure my sister found her inner peace when we finally arrived at the airport. Tapos na kami mag-check in. Nakapila na rin kami to board on the plane. Pero ang bagal umusad ng pila, mangingitim pa ako sa kakapila dito dahil sobrang taas ng sikat ng araw.

"Stop frowning." My sister whispered. Hindi ko alam kung bulong pa ba 'yon, ang lakas pa rin ng boses niya. Nakakahiya na talaga sa ibang pasahero.

"Bakit kasi kailangan pa nating pumila? You know how I hate mabilad sa araw."

"Bata pa lang tayo, nagttravel na tayo, Erin. Hindi ka pa ba nasanay? Magtiis ka, hindi naman nakakaitim ang masikatan ng araw ng ilang minuto. Maarte ka lang talaga." Litanya na naman ng kapatid ko.

Hindi ko na siya sinagot pa dahil walang tigil ang pambabara niya sa 'kin tuwing nagrereklamo ako. Lagi talaga siyang naiinis sa 'kin tuwing may lakad kaming dalawa. Ako naman eh maraming reklamo tapos magtatalo lang kami kasi tinatarayan namin ang isa't isa. Parang tanga lang. Wala talaga sa vocabulary naming magkapatid ang salitang decency.

Halos mapatalon ako sa tuwa dahil sa wakas, nakatungtong din sa eroplano ang mga paa kong nangangalay na sa kakapila kanina! Pinagpawisan pa ako dahil nagsiksikan kanina ang mga pasahero.

I don't know pero sa tuwing nasa eroplano ako, bigla akong nakakaramdam ng antok. Minsan hindi ko na lang mapapansin eh nakatulog na pala ako kahit wala pa sa himpapawid ang plane. Antukin ka lang talaga siguro, Zephyrine.

"Erin, gising na. Nandito na tayo." Inaalog ni Ate Zaf ang balikat ko kaya nagising ako. "Wake up, sleepyhead."

I opened my eyes and when I looked outside, iba na ang environment. Nandito na kami sa Cebu. Parang ang bilis naman yata. Nakatulog kasi ako buong byahe. Medyo nangalay nga ang leeg ko.

It feels amazing to be back here in Cebu. It's been a while since the last time we visited here. Na-miss ko ang mga pagkain at tanawin dito!

"Can you please let go of my hand, Ate? Para akong bata nito." Nakasimangot kong reklamo kay Ate while looking around. Baka kasi may nakakakita sa aming dalawa, iisipin pang ignorante ako.

Paano kasi eh hawak niya ang kamay ko habang naglalakad kami. She's over protective of me! Nandito na nga kami sa village.

Nahihirapan nga akong hilahin ang luggage ko.

"I find it sweet tho." Ate Zaf grinned that made me frowned more. My day will never be complete without her being loud and teasing the heck out of me.

Hindi na lang ako nakipagtalo sa kanya kasi pagod na ako kahit nakatulog naman ako sa eroplano. I saw how the sun is slowly starting to set so it made me feel more excited na makarating sa bahay ng Nana namin dati. I want to watch the sunset on their terrace which is my favorite spot sa bahay nila and take some photos of it.

"I just hope Nana did not forget that we are coming today." Ate Zaf said while ringing the doorbell.

"I thought you called her the day before our flight?" I asked her.

"Yes, I did. Pero alam mo namang busy si Nana sa restaurant kaya nga hindi tayo nasundo sa airport eh. Baka nakalimot na dadating tayo."

"Hindi 'yon basta nakakalimot." I shrugged. "Kasama niya rin naman si Jam, panigurado nag-set pa 'yon ng alarm." Natawa kami sa sinabi ko.

We stopped talking when we heard someone opening the gate for us. Then, a middle-aged woman welcomed us with a warm smile.

"Nana!" We hugged her tightly. Siya ang dati naming helper, she resigned years ago at umuwi dito sa Cebu.

"Hi, mga anak!" Nana hugged us back. Nana is caring and loving. Siya ang nag-aalaga sa amin ni Ate since mga bata pa lang kami kaya sobrang close rin namin sa kanya. She's like our second mom.

"Akala namin nakalimutan n'yo na ngayon ang dating namin." Ngumuso ako.

Natawa si Nana. "Pwede ba naman 'yon? At saka maaga pa, sobrang excited na ni Jam makita kayo." Napangiti kami.

"Nana, how are you?" Ate Zaf asked Nana.

"Ayos lang naman ako. Kayo bang dalawa?" Tiningnan niya kaming magkapatid.

"We're doing okay din po, Nana." Ate Zaf replied politely.

"Maganda pa rin po, Nana." Pagbibiro ko kaya natawa sila.

"Mas maganda pa rin si Nana." Ate Zaf said. Totoo namang sobrang ganda pa rin ni Nana kahit may edad na siya.

"Ikaw talaga Zaf, binobola mo na naman ako." We laughed at her reaction. "Tumuloy na muna kayo, sa loob na tayo mag-usap. May hinanda rin si Jam para sa inyo."

"Foods po ba 'yan? Gutom na po kasi ako eh." Sabi ko bago humawak sa tiyan ko.

Excited kaming pumasok ni Ate sa bahay nina Nana. Being here always feels like home because I'm surrounded with good people.

"Welcome home, girls!" We heard Jam's voice. May pa-confetti pa siya kaya nagulat tuloy kami ni Ate Zaf pero syempre natuwa rin dahil kahit kailan ma-effort talaga itong si Jam. She even baked a cake for us! She's so sweet.

Jam is Nana's one and only daughter. We're of the same age. We get along really well since we were kids.

"Jam, I've missed you so much!" We hugged each other tightly.

She still looks so lovely at sobrang cheerful niya pa rin. Matagal na rin kaming hindi nakabisita dito kaya na-miss talaga namin ang isa't isa kahit nagkakausap naman kami online. I have friends in Manila but having Jam in my life is much different. Para ko na rin siyang kapatid. She knows my secrets, I know hers. We are that close. Distance doesn't matters to us.

"Weh? Wala ka ngang gift sa akin eh." She playfully rolled her eyes.

Binati niya rin si Ate Zaf na kanina pa natutuwang panoorin kami na mag-asaran kahit kakarating pa lang namin. Ganoon talaga ang bonding namin ni Jam.

"Ate Zaf, ang ganda mo pa rin po!" Puri niya kay Ate.

"Ikaw rin, Jam!" Ngumiti si Ate Zaf.

"Wow ha! Hindi mo ako sinabihan na maganda eh ako best friend mo tapos si Ate lang pinuri mo." I joked that made them laugh.

"Hindi ka naman talaga maganda." She stucked her tongue out to tease me.

"First day ko pa lang dito, inaasar mo na ako. Paano pa kaya sa mga susunod na araw?" Nakakastress din pala magkaroon ng kaibigang mahilig mang-asar. Kung maarte ako, mahilig naman mang-asar itong si Jam. Perfect combination nga.

"By the way, sorry kung wala kaming dalang gifts para sa inyo ah." Sabi ni Ate nang makababa siya galing sa kwarto ni Jam. Kakabihis lang namin ng pambahay.

"Ano ka ba, Ate? Ayos lang 'yon! Ang dami na naming damit dahil palagi n'yo kaming binibilhan." Jam said cheerfully.

"Oo nga. Tsaka magluluto rin naman kami ni Jam ng mga paborito n'yo kaya ayos lang 'yon. Ang mahalaga safe kayong nakarating dito." Sabi naman ni Nana.

"Na-miss ko tuloy pumuntang Manila." Biglang sabi ni Jam.

"Sumama na kayo sa 'min ni Ate pagbalik namin doon." I suggested. Matagal na rin silang hindi nakadalaw doon. May trabaho rin kasi si Nana dito na hindi niya basta bastang maiiwan.

"Kung ganoon lang sana kadali na umalis papuntang Manila. Pero alam n'yo naman na ang dami kong dapat asikasuhin dito. May pasok din si Jam at walang maiiwan dito sa bahay." Aniya Nana.

"Gagawan natin ng paraan 'yan, Nana. Don't worry! As of now, let's enjoy our time together!"

"Oo nga naman!"

Nagtilian kami na parang mga timang, nang biglang tumunog ang phone ko so they all looked at me.

"What?" I asked.

Kung makatingin sila sa 'kin, akala mo naman may nagawa akong mali. Alam ko ang mga tinging 'yan. They're teasing me! Akala nila boyfriend ko ang tumatawag sa akin.

"Your phone is ringing. Hindi mo ba sasagutin?" Ate Zafie asked mischievously.

I rolled my eyes. "Fine! Stop teasing me, okay? I don't have a boyfriend!" Sinagot ko na 'yong tawag. "Hello?"

"Erin! " Inilayo ko ang phone ko sa tenga ko. Feeling ko mabibingi ako sa lakas ba naman ng boses ni Jake. He's my closest male friend and I can tell na pareho sila ng ugali ni Jam, laging energetic at mahilig mang-asar.

"Bakla ka ba?!" Inis kong tanong sa kanya.

"Of course not!" Mabilis niyang pagtanggi kaya natawa ako.

"Ang defensive ah! By the way, anong atin? Kakarating lang namin sa Cebu."

"Gusto lang kita makausap." Mahina niyang usal.

"Ikaw ha. Miss mo na ako agad, 'no?" Pang-aasar ko sa kanya.

"Yes, I miss you. My day isn't complete without you." He straightforwardly uttered that made me stunned.

Beat. Woah, that was unexpected. Where did he got the courage to say that without stuttering?

    My sister and I decided to go shopping the day after. We thought of buying gifts for Nana and Jam. I can't choose what to buy for Jam. Nakabili na kami ng mga damit at bag para kay Nana. Bumili rin si Ate Zaf ng dress and shoes for Jam. Pero wala pa rin akong maisip na gift for her!"Bagay kay Jam 'to." Itinuro ni Ate Zaf ang kulay pink na relo. It's so cute!"Omg, yes! I'll buy this for her." Pumila na kami ni Ate papunta sa counter para bayaran ang mga pinamili namin. Kaso nga lang, ang haba ng pila."God, bakit ba ang daming tao? Kailan pa kaya tayo makakaraos dito." Inis akong napapadyak. Pet peeve ko kasi ang pagpipila ng matagal."Marami talagang tao kasi nasa mall ka, Erin. Wala ka sa bundok.""I know. You don't have to talk about mountains. You're so random." I rolled my eyes.Hindi na nagsalita si Ate. When I looked at h

    "Hey." A voice said behind me.I looked over my shoulder and saw my sister. "Ate Zaf." I gave her a small smile."I'm sorry about earlier, sissy." She said softly.I just nodded. Wala lang naman talaga 'yon sa 'kin. She was just stating the fact. And it's a good thing that she did not tolerated my behavior earlier.My sister sat down beside me. Nasa terrace kasi ako ng bahay nila Jam, pinapanood ang paglubog ng araw. This has been a habit of mine ever since bata ako. I love to watch the sunset."You never watched the sunset with me before. Ngayon lang." I smiled bitterly while remembering our childhood days. Naalala ko na umiyak ako ng umiyak noon dahil ayaw niya akong samahan sa seashore para manood ng sunset. Mas maganda kasi panoorin ang sunset kapag nasa tabing-dagat ka. Nagtampo ako sa kanya ng ilang araw no'n. I was really upset that time.

    I woke up earlier than usual the next morning. I immediately got up to wash up and brush my teeth before I went downstairs. Nagugutom na 'ko kaya dumiretso ako sa kitchen ng bahay nila Jam. "Gising ka na pala, Zeph." Sambit ni Jam nang makita niya ako. Siya pala ang naghahanda ng agahan namin. Nasa garden siguro si Nana. "Yeah." I said, yawning. "Obviously." "It's too early for you to be grumpy." She told me before handing me a glass of hot chocolate. There were mallows, just exactly how I want my morning drink to be. "Thanks, Jam." I sat down on the chair. Nakatulala lang ako sa kisame habang uniinom ng hot chocolate. Ganito talaga ako kapag bagong gising, tutulala muna bago magising nang tuluyan ang diwa. "I'll help Nana to clean up the house," I told Jam who was busy scrambling some eggs for breakfast. She raised her brow at me. "Sure ka?" Tinaasan ko rin siya ng kilay. "Why? You don't think I can do it?" She shrugged. "Mayaman kayo, eh. Malay ko bang may alam kang gawai

    Everything hasn't sunk in my mind yet! How come the asshole who spilt the mango shake on my dress is the cousin of my sister's friend? Bakit ba ako pinaglalaruan ng tadhana? "Erin, do you know my cousin? May something ba between the two of you? Or may nagawa siyang mali sa 'yo?" Mahinahong tanong ng kaibigan ni Ate Zaf na si Jarie. I tried my best to flash her a smile. "No! I don't know him po, Ate Jarie. And there's nothing between us! We're strangers po..." I lied. "You don't know him but you're acting like that? Sinalo ka na nga niya mula sa pagkahulog mo sa hagdan tapos ganyan ang approach mo sa kanya? Kung hinayaan ka lang niyang mahulog edi sana nasa hospital ka na ngayon. Umayos ka kaya, Zephyrine." Halatang naiinis na sa akin si Ate Zaf. I bit my lower lip. "I-I'm sorry." Then I immediately left the room. Anong kahihiyan na naman 'yon?! Parang pinapalabas pa ng lalaking 'yon na ako ang may kasalanan dito! I thought I will never see him again but what did just happen? Ba

    While we were both acting oblivious, everyone was looking at me and Ethan. I aggressively bit my nails, a habit of mine whenever I'm nervous and embarrassed. "Pag-usapan nga natin 'to." It was Kuya Jude. They're now examining our facial expressions and, our actions—as if we were some criminals under scrutiny. Grabe ba! Nag-isip pa ako ng sasabihin sa kanila kanina, in case tatanungin nila kung bakit kami magkasama at kung bakit kami nakita ni Ate Wry sa kitchen na magkahalikan kahit hindi naman! Sure ako na nagtanong sila kung bakit hindi kami sumunod agad kay Ate Wry. Well, we have our reasons. And for the record, hindi kami nag-kiss ng gagong katabi ko. "Wry saw the two of you kissing inside the kitchen. God... Hindi n'yo na ginalang ang kusina nila Jam at Nana?" My sister looked at me. She is overreacting as usual. "Kalmahan mo muna, Zaf." Ate Zelle tried to stop my sister from lashing out. My sister is getting hysterical. Para naman kasing tanga itong si Ate Wry. Hindi niya

    I asked permission from my sister that I'll go out to buy some snacks. I've been eating the same foods since the day I arrived here in Cebu. And I also wanted to breathe some fresh air outside. Nabo-bored na ako sa loob ng bahay nina Jam. I don't know if when are we going out to stroll around the city."You're not going out, Zephyrine." My sister said firmly while typing something on her laptop.Tumaas ang kilay ko. "But why? Hindi naman ako magtatagal sa labas, Ate. Tungkol na naman ba 'to sa age ko? My god, I'm already eighteen! Hindi na ako bata.""Mapapagalitan tayong dalawa nina Dad and Mom kapag nalaman nila ang ginawa mong paglabas ng bahay mag-isa. Gusto mo ba 'yon?" She asked back.I rolled my eyes. "Edi magalit na sila kung magalit. I don't care.""Zephyrine! Anong malay natin kung pinapasundan ba tayo ng mga tao nina Daddy at

    Ethan walked me home. Kahit na sinabi kong hindi na kailangan, since I'm already inside the village. I know I'm safe in here. But he insisted. His reason was that his cousin, Ate Jarie, had a house here just a few blocks away at doon siya tumutuloy. I have no strength to argue with him so I just let him. Hindi kami nag-uusap habang naglalakad pauwi. Hindi kami close pero hindi ko siya sinusungitan. He saved me twice and that's enough to treat him casually. When I got home, Nana was watering the plants in their front yard and she saw Ethan with me kaya inaya niya ito para sumabay na rin sa aming magmeryenda. Ayaw pa sana nito pero pinilit talaga ni Nana. Magkatabi pa kami habang kumakain ng leche flan at fruit salad. Pero hindi kami nag-uusap kasi nga ang awkward! Tinanong nila kung bakit ang tagal ko raw sa labas kaya kwinento ko sa kanila ang lahat ng nangyari. "Ay naku! Ba

    Ate Jarie rented five hotel rooms for us to stay in! Kuya Jude also ordered a lot of foods and drinks para mamaya. Ate Jarie told us to not worry about the bills anymore dahil sagot na niya lahat. "Mag-ambagan dapat tayo, guys." Ate Zaf suggested. "Come on, Zafie. It's alright. Ako naman talaga nag-aya sa inyo na mag-beach. You just have to relax and enjoy the moment." Ate Jarie said with a smile while hugging my sister. Out of all my sister's friends, I like Ate Jarie the most. She's very nice and sweet. Not to mention na galante rin siya sa pera. I like her presence, too. "It's settled already, okay! Don't worry sa babayaran dahil sagot ko na lahat. Magbihis muna kaso saka tayo mag-swimming. Enjoy yourselves, guys." Ate Jarie said. We went to our respective rooms to change our clothes. Mabilis lang akong nagbihis dahil simpleng swimwear l

    The first time he saw her, he only thought that she was not even his type. Maarte, isip-bata, at mataray—all of these traits were just so far from his liking. Yet, here he is, looking at her with nothing but admiration and love, reflecting on the journey they've taken together. Ethan stood by the window, watching Zephyrine in the garden. The sun cast a golden glow over her, highlighting her hair as she tended to the flowers. He marvelled at how far they had come, both individually and together. He thought back to when he was just a playboy, flitting from one girl to another without a care. Meeting Zephyrine had changed everything. "Ethan," Zephyrine called out, breaking his reverie. "Are you just going to stand there and watch, or are you going to help me with these flowers?" Ethan smiled, walking over to join her. "Can't a man admire his beautiful wife in peace?" Zephyrine laughed, a sound that always filled Ethan with warmth. "You can, but I'd prefer if you also helped me pla

    After the reconciliation with my sister, I called our parents to come over. I did not expect them to come right away. But they really did. Nagulat na lang ako na wala pang isang oras ay nakarating na sila sa rest house na kung saan kasalukuyang tumutuloy si Aye Zafie. Mom was hysterically sobbing as she tightly hugged Ate Zafie, apologizing for her shortcomings all over again. Dad was silently watching them but I know better. He's breaking down deep inside but he just wouldn't show it off.They were both worried for my sister. We all are. My heart tugged at the sight of them embracing one another as I stood from afar. I couldn't help but break into a small smile as I watch my little family slowly getting back together. I've longed for this ever since. Despite all the issues, the disappointments, the hatred, and the betrayals... I've always found my way to them. I've learned how to forgive my parents especially my mother who had made my teenage life worse than it could have been. T

    I guess love can actually drive us insane. It's terrifiying at most times. I could attest that."She's still not answering her phone?" Ethan asked while driving the car to the cafe where my sister frequent. At least that's what her friends told me over the phone a while back.I puckered my lips as I shook my head. I also couldn't help but let out a heavy sigh. It's been hours since my sister went missing in action. And we still couldn't track her. Pero hindi naman ako susuko sa paghahanap sa kanya. Kaya lang ay pagod na talaga ako sa ngayon. I felt like my body's about to give up any moment from now, but I didn't make it obvious to Ethan. Alam kong pagod na rin siya. The least I could do is to not stress him out more. Kahit na hindi ako sure kung anong ginagawa ko ngayon. Kasi sa totoo lang, hindi naman na dapat nandito si Ethan. This has nothing to do with him. And yet he's here—to help me find my sister. I heard him heave a deep breath as well. He then carefully pulled over near a

    "That wasn't your fault, okay? It was mine. I'm sorry." Ethan said repeatedly even if he didn't need to. "Let's stop putting the blame on ourselves, please. And stop apologizing. We just slept—that's all. Mom was just overreacting. Didn't know she had that attitude." Napailing na lang ako.Seriously? Siya talaga magdidikta sa aming dalawa na gawin nang official ang relasyon namin ni Ethan? That sounded so weird for me."Still... ako ang lalaki. I should've known that it would put you in the bad side."I rolled my eyes. "Duh? As if sleeping together is that big of a deal. We didn't even kiss. Inaantok na nga tayo pareho kagabi. OA talaga ng mom ko, for real. Don't worry about it that much. We won't rush things the way she wanted us to."He let out a deep sigh before nodding. He looked so stressed out about what happened. Mom's pressuring him, too. I wasn't mad at her, I was just pissed. Kaya nga kami umalis agad after breakfast. I didn't want to hear mom's opinions about Ethan and I an

    "Love-" I was about to say something to Ethan but stopped when I realized what I just said. Nanlaki ang mga mata ko nang lumingon si Ethan sa 'kin. And his eyes widened as well. Of course, we're both shocked! He obviously heard what I just called him. Magkatabi lang naman kaming dalawa. Umawang ang labi nito at nagtatanong ang mga mata. "Did... did you just call me 'love'?" He asked, amused. I bit my lower lip. I didn't know what to say again! Pasmado talaga ang bibig ko at kung anu ano na lang ang lumalabas mula dito! Palaging nadudulas, eh. "I mean-" Umiwas ako ng tingin nang mapansing sumeryoso ang mukha nito. I'm never ready to talk about 'this' yet. Para akong kakapusan ng hininga kapag pag-uusapan namin ang relasyon namin or whatever. Kasi alam ko na kung saan 'to patungo, eh! As I said, I don't want to commit myself to Ethan for now. And I don't to disappoint or hurt him in any way. "Alam mo bang ilang beses ko nang pinangarap na tawagin mo rin ako ng ganoon, Zephyrine?"

    "Are you feeling better now?" Ethan asked me, but I didn't look at him. Namamanhid ang labi ko nang dahil sa kanya! "Hey. I'm sorry. I was just tempted to kiss you." I groaned. "Ugh. Can you please just shut up? Masyado ka nang nakadagdag sa problema ko sa buhay." "I'm sorry, okay? I just wanted you to feel better through my kisses." Tingnan mo nga 'to at binibiro na naman ako! "Tumahimik ka na lang, please. Tama na kaka-mention tungkol sa kiss na 'yan!" Naiirita kong sambit. At tawang tawa naman si gago. Ang sarap talaga nitong suntukin, eh. Hindi ko na ulit pa pinakinggan ang mga pinagsasabi niyang hindi magandang pakinggan para sa 'kin. Mahawaan pa ako sa kaharutan niya. "Hoy. Kung gusto mo talaga ako, samahan mo nga ako sa loob ng house nila mommy." Paghahamon ko sa kanya. I thought he was going to say no but he immediately offered his hand to me. "Take my hand and hold on to it tightly. I'll always be by your side, no matter what happens." I rolled my eyes after hearing

    "Hey, you can do this." Ethan told me as he gently hold my hand. We were in front of my parents' house and I am feeling a little nervous to get inside. Actually, halo halo ang emosyon ko ngayon. A part of me hated the fact that my parents were not really caring and nice to me ever since. They were blinded by their fame. They enjoyed their spot under the limelight. They caused me both emotional and mental damages. I could feel anger boiling up in my heart again just by thinking every cruel thing my parents put me in, so I tried to execute the breathing exercises for me to calm down. I can't be like this right now. I needed to get things done. I needed to fight against my own monsters. "Masama ba ang pakiramdam mo? Let's just go back when you're ready to face them again, Erin. You need to compose yourself first, okay? Please don't push yourself too hard. May nakalaang oras para sa lahat ng bagay. There's no need to rush." Ethan tried to make me feel better with all tho

    "Hey, I'll just buy something downstairs." I told Ivory who's now busy with the report that she had to do as the president of the student council. "You sure you're okay to go out alone?" She asked. "I'm a hundred percent sure." "Okay." She replied with a nod. Her eyes didn't leave the screen of her computer. "Wala kang ipapabili?" Tanong ko. "Nothing. Just be safe. Diyan ka lang sa baba, ah." I nodded and made my to the convenience store. When I was inside the elevator, I had a hard time composing myself. Ang daming tao sa loob, siksikan pa. I almost couldn't breath, not only because it was crowded inside but because I was triggered by that traumatic memory I had in Cebu when I went out alone.This is so tiresome. Lagi na lang ganito nararamdaman ko every time I try to do my usual routine alone. I am already breathing heavily and was about to get back to the unit dahil sa takot kong baka maulit na naman '

    I was waiting for Axi and Ivory to come back from the lavatory. I was so hungry that I didn't mind going there with them. Besides, I have a feeling that I am already starting to hate going to lavatories, rest rooms or comfort rooms because of Ethan and Wry. So, I just minded my own business and ate lunch since I am really hungry. As in, for real nagugutom na talaga ako. Ang dami ko ngang biniling pagkain, eh! I don't eat a lot but whenever I'm stressed out, I would unintentionally eat a little bit more. I already had two cups of rice and two pieces of fried chicken. I felt so full but still had a can of a carbonated drink. I also am planning on buying hash browns. "I know you're here." A familiar voice spoke that I almost spit out my drink. What the heck?! I had a sudden mix of emotions inside and I hated it. I don't want to be in my whirlpool of thoughts and become vulnerable again. Hindi na ako magiging marupok, I promised that to myself.
