Byenn's POV
Its already 2 in the morning when I check my phone and there's messages from Keisha.
I opened it and see a picture of her in a white dress, I smiled. She's glowing like an angel in her new look. Masaya ako nage-enjoy siya dun. I scroll down and she has sent a message.
In 2hours magde-departure na kami. Hindi na ako makapag-intay na maka-uwi diyan. Miss ko na kayo. Ikaw, si Tita at Prince. I can't wait. See you! ;3 ;3 ;3
The message say, I slightly smiled.
That soul... Keisha-- she's deeply inlove with him. I uttered and heaves a sigh as I remove my specs. I massage the bridge of my nose at nangalumbaba na nakatingin sa screen ng laptop.
I was working on a research requested by my academy professor in Psychology in California.
He's just the only professor that I keep in touch afterall these years because of a reason.
Before, I hated the subject psychology because it tackles the worse of worst. Even though, I manage to pay attention in class. As I heard dreams...
I mean it, I get curious.
When I'm little, I always have nightmares. It doesn't foretell the future but the past of someone who I don't know. I wanted to stop those nightmares because I think I'm getting weaker and weaker as it whorsen. Every night I whine in my sleep and end up crying so hard when I wake up. It was tiring.
Not until my Mom always bring me to a Christian church where I started to worship God. The nightmares slowly faded as the nights pass until it just stopped.
Psychology behind made me curious why people believe what they do, even in the absence of evidence to it.
I don't believe in alien abductions. There's no such thing as alien. I don't believe in past life regression, ghosts, or psychic medium that can speak to the dead. There's no such thing but the work of imaginations. We are the one who invent them. We are the cause and made its effect. My view of psychology of paranormal and pseudoscientific beliefs stayed the same... until it happened.
The moment he stand in front of me, the way he looked at me, touched my face, say those goodbye's...
Dahil dun, nagbago ang pananaw ko sa teyoryang iyon at nagawang pag-aralan ang spirituwal na dimensiyon ng buhay.
I heave another sigh before clicking enter to send the file to my professor.
I don't think if makakatulog pa ako dahil sa dami ng iniisip ko, so I decided to leave my room and go downstairs for a coffee.
I want to learn about soul after dahil sa sitwasiyong kinabibilangan ko ngayon. I'm going to overview neuroscience because most of the details say it is the only branch of scientific study relevant to understanding the soul.
I didn't get some sleep that's why I keep on yawning as I stretch my arms and move my head when I got up of the chair.
I stay till dawn and now I feel sleepy kaya tinapon ko na ang sarili sa malambot kong kama ng makaidlip kahit ilang minuto lang.
Wah... tignan mo nga naman. bungad ni Mayenn ng makita ang pinsang si Jerome na kakababa lang ng hagdanan habang siya ay prenteng naka-upo sa sofa sa sala at nanunuod ng variety show sa tv.
Naka-uwi kang buo. I'm sure may hangover ka pa. Siguro naman natatandaan mo pa ang mga pinanggagawa mo kagabi. sarcastic ngunit mapang-asar na turan ni Mayenn kay Jerome na siyang parang pagod. Hindi nito pinatulan si Mayenn at dumiretso sa kusina.
Uminom lang siya ng tubig at tumalikod na ng tawagin siya at lapitan ni Manang Muning para tanungin kung ano ang gusto nitong kainin sa breakfast.
Wala po akong gana, huwag na po kayong mag-abala. pagod na sagot nito tsaka naglakad paalis.
