Her Journey

Everything happens for a reason. Yan lagi ang tinituro ni lola sakin mula pagkabata. Just think positive and accept consequences of your doings.

"Your lolo died because he save me from pain. It is not just physical pain but also from emotional pain. Thats why he's my superhero." Ngiting kwento ni lola noong 16th birthday ko.

" In the future, you will find your own superhero. Who's always there for you, who always saves you from everything. Sometimes, you can't stop pain that even your hero cant stop it. But don't turn your back on him. Instead, understand his reason. Because sometimes, we can learn a lesson through pain." That's how I'm attracted to Jomarie. He's my prince with shining armor who saved me from misery.

He let me experienced love, happiness, care and fun. But I didn't know that my prince with shining armor would hurt me. I didnt notice that he stabbed my heart directly, that I learned a lesson. I will guard my heart. I will build a cage that is made by the mist strongest metal we ever encountered. But as my prince with a shining armor, he again entered my heart.

"Babe, please wake up already. It's been 3 months. Please, hindi ka pa ba tapos sa panaginip mo? Pwede ka namang managinip sa susunod na araw eh. Basta gumising ka lang ngayon. I love you so much babe."

I want to open my eyes and see his handsome face. I surely love to see the man I loved. Pero parang may humihila sakin palayo sa boses ni Jomarie.

Napunta ako sa madilim na lugar kung saan dinig na dinig ko ang mga masasakit na salita galing sa kanya noon.

Malandi ka!

Bestfriend mo, pinapatos mo!

Hindi ko pinakinggan ang mga yun dahil alam kong maaapektuhan ako, di na ako makalabas dito. It is like an illusion na parang sinasabing wag na akong babalik sa realidad dahil puro masasakit lang ang nararamdaman dun.Totoo naman, simula nung iwan ako ni Lola at Jomarie, parang nawalan ako ng buhay. Nakamit ko ang aking tagumpay dahil lang sa galit at sakit na nararamdaman ko.

"Dont let your emotions control your decision." Isang anghel ang sigaw ni lola sakin dito sa bangungot na ito. Tama, di maganda ang magiging resulta kapag binabase sa ating emosyon ang ating desisyon. Just think positive, Nycil. Makakalabas ako rito at makakasama sila.
