How can someone have beautiful eyes like his? My world slowed down for the second time as soon as I stared in his light chocolate brown eyes.
"Hello." That's what I managed to say then I felt Kirsten looked at me and said "I'm Kirsten and this is Clary." And nudged me to snap me out of this cloud nine feeling.
"I know you." He said.
What? Did I heard it right? He knows me? What?
"You're the elevator girl." He added then smiled.
"Uh yeah. Thanks for giving back my phone. Hehe." I awkwardly said and inalis ko na yung tingin ko sa kanya and made myself busy.
Kirsten cleared her throat. "Uhm. Sige. Later na lang ulit. Clary's feeling uneasy eh. Kanina pa." Tapos umalis na rin si Lucas.
Phew.
That was really awkward! Buti na lang dumating na rin si Sir Ruiz and nag-start na ulit kami mag sketch.
Yes, he is nude again. I know.
Hours had passed and sa wakas natapos rin yung klase namin. Sabay ulit kaming uuwi ni Kirsten. We're just going to stop by at the mall kasi may bibilhin kaming material.
"Ayos ka na?" She asked.
"Yeah. Tara na. I have to be home before 5." I reminded her.
"Jeez, Clary. Ang tanda mo na may curfew ka pa rin?" Sabi nya habang tumatawa tawa pa.
"What's wrong with that naman? Ayaw lang kasi nila ako mapahamak kaya ganun! Nakaka asar naman 'to. Di na kaya kita samahan no?" Pikon kong sabi.
"'To naman! Joke lang naman kasi! Tara na nga eh diba?" Giit nya nang tumunog na ang elevator signaling us na nasa ground floor na kami.
Condo kasi 'tong lugar ng art class namin. Bale, yung 5th floor ng condo, kalahati nun art room namin. Tapos may iba pang room. So basically, sa amin ang buong 5th floor. Taray diba?
"Lucas!" Sabi ni Kirsten. Yung totoo? May gusto ba 'to kay Lucas? Tapos ito naman si Lucas, lumapit ulit sa amin. Tinawag pa kasi nitong babaeng 'to. Hay nako.
"Uuwi ka na ba?" Kirsten asked Lucas.
"Uh. Nope. May bibilhin ako saglit sa mall. Kayo ba?" Sagot nito.
"Uhm... May bibilhin din kami saglit then uuwi na rin. It's getting kinda late na eh." Sagot ko.
"What? It's almost 4 PM. What do you mean late, Clary?" He said. Okay. Hindi kami close bakit niya tinatanong yung ganun. Pakielamero woot woot!
"Ay! Clary's family doesn't like her staying outside pag 5 PM na." Explain naman ni Kirsten.
"Sige. Alis na kami." I said then grabbed Kirsten hand and went to the parking lot.
"What was that all about?" Kirsten asked me when we sat in the car and when she started the ignition.
"I... just don't want him meddle like that. That's all." Kiblit balikat kong sagot habang nakatingin sya sa akin.
"Weh? Ako pa lokohin mo De La Fuente! You like Lucas!" Kirsten punched me lightly then umalis na ng parking lot at nag drive na papunta sa mall.
"I don't! Will you stop that?" I said. Then I sighed kasi I'm done tolerating her teasing me.
"Okay, okay. Jeez. Halata naman kasi sa'yo na you like Lucas. Ayaw mo pang aminin sa sarili mo." She said.
Hindi ko na lang sya sinagot. Saka, I really don't like him! Bakit ba nya pinipilit sa akin yung kumag na yun. Nakarating na kami sa mall at pinark lang saglit yung sasakyan at bumaba.
"Oy. Sumagot ka nga sa akin, bakit mo pinagpipilitan sa akin si Lucas? Eh ikaw nga 'tong parang may gusto sa kanya." Bigla kong sabi.
Then she gave me the 'dude-what-the-fuck?' look. "What? No! I have a boyfriend and I'm only doing that because both of you kept on staring at each other tuwing may klase and I'm playing the fairy god mother role here! Don't question my doings! Oh! We're here na pala." She said. Napatingin din ako sa shop na nasa agenda ni Kirsten. Nandito na pala kami.
-x-
"Lola? I'm home!" I said when I just opened the door.
"Natutulog si Lola sa kwarto, ate." Rina said. Nagla-laptop sya sa may dining table habang kumakain.
"Ugh. Can you focus on eating first before facing the laptop? Hindi pinaghihintay ang pagkain, Rina." I said. Sinigang na bangus for dinner! Yum!
"Where's mom?" I asked then nakita kong kumakain na ng tuloy tuloy si Rina. Good girl.
"Oh. She called earlier. She told Lola na may last meeting lang sya then uuwi na rin." She said.
"Dito ba kakain ng dinner si mama?" Umupo na ako then nag start na kumain.
"Dunno. She didn't tell Lola. Tirhan mo na lang sya ng ulam."
And so I did. Buti na lang maraming naluto si Lola. She know me too well. Weakness ko ang sinigang at chicken adobo.
And LASAGNA!!!
"Hey mago-order ako ng pizza. Anything you want?" I asked Rina na hindi matanggal tanggal sa harap ng laptop nya.
"Uh. Carbonara. Make that 3! Kulang sakin yung sinigang eh." Ibang klase 'tong kapatid ko. Tapos biglang bumukas yung pinto. Yay! Mom's home!
"Ma! Mago-order ako ng pizza, may gusto kang ipadagdag?" I asked her agad while jotting down the list of food na io-order ko. Then bigla kong narinig yung footsteps ni Lola. She's awake na.
"Ikaw, Lola? Ano gusto mo?" I asked.
"Bakit? Mago-order ka? Eh may sinigang dito ah?" She said then sat at her rocking chair.
"Kulang yun para sa amin eh." I said then laughed. She said what she want then I ordered. Thank god for delivery. Woop!!
Dumating na yung pinadeliver ko then we watched some movies 'til our sleepy selves came. Buti na lang Friday night na ngayon. I'm staying up late. Shh! No one knows!
After I took a shower, agad kong kinuha ang laptop ko then pumwesto na sa bed. I checked my social media for updates and shit. Oh you know, typical teenager doings. Bagal nga lang ng net.
Ganito ba sa Pilipinas? Nubayan. I checked my f******k account and biglang may nag message sa akin. My account's on private. And by private, I mean really private. No one can add me agad agad unless I'm the one who adds them. The ones who can't add me can only reach me by f******k message.
I clicked the message box only to find out that it's Lucas who messaged me. How on earth did he found out my profile? Ang stalker ha. Tsk tsk. Anyhow, I accepted his message request.
Lucas Samonte:Hello.
Clary De La Fuente:Hi.
Lucas Samonte:So you're a De La Fuente.
Clary De La Fuente:Yeah. Why?
Lucas Samonte:Nothing.
Clary De La Fuente:Okay.
Lucas Samonte:You're cute.
Clary De La Fuente:And you're creeping me out. Bye.
Then I turned off my chat and notifications from him. I swear. He's really creeping me out. Imbis na kiligin ako, nac-creepyhan ako sa ginawa nya.
...
Oh shit.
This is such a great night.

Oblivion Prologue
What if one day, everything and everyone you've ever loved and cherished the most in this world will be erased from your memory? Did you even have a cat? Did you even have a car? Did you even learn how to ride a bike? Did you even have friends like that? Why does everything feel so familiar? It's like, being born the second time around. Everything. No memory is spared. You're living in oblivion. But does living in pure oblivion deter you from ever experiencing nirvana? Will you ever, experience the feeling of being loved? Especially by those closest to your heart? Who am I, really?

[1] "Clary! Apo saan ka ba nanggaling? I called Kirsten earlier and she said you were not there. Saan ka pumunta?" That was Lola Minerva talking. She almost had a heart attack because I went somewhere with her not knowing. "Lola, I just went back to the tailor shop to buy these! You mentioned that you're running out of blue thread and needles last week." I said. I showed her the plastic bag containing what I bought 30 minutes ago and gave it to her. "Then why didn't you tell me? You told me you were going to Kirsten's to get supplies for your art class next week." She said as she rummaged through the bag. "Kulang naman yung binili mo pero, okay na ito. Sa susunod magsabi ka sa akin kung saan ka pupunta

[2] "Clary wake up! You have art class today! And what's with this mess? Clary! Wake the hell up! It's 9:30 already! Wake your damn ass up!" Oh dear lord. That voice. Hearing a rooster's voice is so much better than Lola's voice. I'm pretty sure na amazona 'to when she was younger. "I'm up! I'm up! I started unpacking the rest nung friday! Mom told me to unpack! Kinulit nya ako!" I yelled back. Nasa kabilang kwarto kasi eh. I groggily sat in my bed scratching my head. Eww. Wala naman akong kuto. I swear. If meron man, I'm shaving my hair. IMMEDIATELY. I went to my turntable and put on a classic vinyl. A Star Wars classic, Star Wars theme song to be exact.

[3] As soon as I woke up, I feel overwhelmed. I went to Kirsten's house after ko mag-ayos para sa class ko mamaya. Sobrang aga ng gising ko ngayon. It's so weird. "Hey dude." I saw Kirsten who just went out of her room. Kakagising niya lang. "Fuck! Why are you here?" She said. "Good morning to you too, Kirsten Eloise Van Zandt." I said while taunting her more. I'm really playful today. Don't worry, I'm asking myself why din. "You shut up and wait for me. No need for saying my whole girly name, Clary." She said and followed her to her room. Her room is really awesome, I must say. She has
