It's already midnight ng ako ay bumaba ng bahay. While going down stairs I saw Vana on the balcony leaning on a railings while sighing repeatedly.

I know we both have a problem but I think mas malaki iyong sa kaniya and I don't want to middle on to it co'z I know kusa niya iyong sasabihin sa akin. And when she's done saying it to me, it would be my sign to help her willingly.

Kaming dalawa iyong tipong hindi mo mapaghihiwalay na kung nasaan ako ay susunod o dapat na nandoon din siya. Maybe because the trust that we give to each other are too strong that even our greatest secrets are we both know, kaya wala akong maitatago sa kaniya unless it's too deep than the sea, na hindi ko pa o namin nararanasan.

I sighed before I go and be in her side.
Tumanaw ako sa kalangitan and I can't see the shining stars. The wind is also keeps blowing that make my hair mess na pinabayaan ko na lamang.

"Hmm, why are you not still sleeping?" Vana asked me.

"Maybe because you're not sleeping too, I guess." I said.

" Hindi ako makatulog... Make me," she's pouting while saying that to me at bumaling sa akin.

"Nope, I don't want to," I said while having a face palmed. Hindi ako maalam magpatulog ng parang bata.

Vana' s a type of girl that could have a childish side pero hindi malala and I think it's normal because even me, I could be have a childish side too.

"You're so mean to me," she keeps pouting that I don't want to see in to her dahil naasar ako sa ganoong mukha.

"No I'm not, para ka lamang talagang bata. Really, patutulugin kita?.. No. Way.." I said with a deep serious tone.

Humarap na muli siya at tumingin sa kalangitan hindi na nagreklamo pa kase alam kong naiitindihan niya ako.

Ayokong magpatulog ng parang bata kase feeling ko maaga akong tatanda. I'm so mean right?

"Do you wonder why we have already fucked up ng tumira tayo dito? Magdadalawang linggo pa lamang pero we already experiencing difficulties." she said but it's actually a whisper type.

"Maybe because sinusubok tayo ng panginoon at hindi ba iniwan natin ang malalaking problema sa China? Our problem here is not like a half of our problem there kaya... I think it's part of a lesson to us na dapat kampante tayo kasi maliit na problema lamang ito. " I said.

"No, I don't think so kase kaakibat ng pagpunta natin dito ay nakasunod pa rin ang mga problema natin doon sa China at kung sasabihin mong tumakas ka, that was lame. " she got a point though mali pa rin.

"Hindi ako tumakas at kailanman ay hindi ko dadalhin ang mga problema ko doon, dito." I said as a matter of fact.

"Hindi ko sinabing dalhin mo, ang sinasabi ko ay nakasunod ito sayo na sa halip ay nakatakas ka, maaring lumala pa. Why don't you resolve and face it?" Naasar naman ako sa sinabi niya kase feel ko naapakan ang ego ko dahil doon. It's too personal for me at alam kong hindi niya naiitindihan ang reason ko.

I sighed.

"Just trust me with this one, okay? Hindi ko dadalhin ang problema ko sa china dahil mananatili iyong nandoon." I asured it to her. She's just worried about me na baka lumala lamang ang mga pangyayare na hindi ko hahayaan.

She nodded and smile.

I smile too and sighed after that. Pareho kaming natahimik at muling tumingin sa kalangitan.

Pumasok lamang kami ng bahay nung tuluyan ng umulan. Maybe because of the storm in the news earlier that's why I can't see the shining stars.

MORNING CAME and I was humming while cooking in the kitchen of our breakfast. Wala na ding ulan at medyo malamig dala ng pag-ulan.
