His Name Is
Leviathan, Not Ethan
“Lets go to Fun Land beaches!” napa face palm nalang ako habang nakikinig sa voice message ni Gabriel. I am now currently holding my towel while slowly lowering my phone's volume.
Minsan na trauma na ako sa mga voice message na yan, naalala ko kasi noong time na nasa sala kami ni mama and I played the voice message that was sent by Gabriel. I was expecting na it's a recording of a song but guess what? Ungol ng isang babaeng na parang nasa hentai.
I almost cried and I wanted to throw my phone away to the other side. Ang lakas kasi ng volume tapos nandoon pa si mama. I got grounded for a week because of that.
I looked at my phone again.
Fun Land...
A place where sadness doesn't exist. It's an amusement park owned by Nathaniel's family. Maraming mga rides and stuff that can entertain all people, bata man o matanda. I haven't been there for a while.
Last time na pumunta kami doon ay mga bata pa kami and Gabriel didn't want to go home, gusto nalang daw niyang manirahan doon kasama ang ibang mga bata.
He kept on crying and saying that he didn't want to leave hanggang sa nakatulog siya at isinakay agad ng parents niya sa loob ng kotse.
“Celestia Luna Ven Valderrama! Maliligo ka o hindi?!” narinig ko na sigaw ni mama.
“Maliligo na po! Celeste Laurel Valderrama!” sigaw ko habang papunta na sa bathroom.
After a few minutes, I already found myself slowly going down stairs habang may tuwalya sa buhok ko. I just finished taking a bath and now I want to eat.
There's bacon and eggs on the table, I really enjoyed eating it while my mom is now in the living room. May kausap siya sa telepono. Saan kaya siya galing kagabi?
When she's in the dining room, I asked her, “Ma, saan ka galing kagabi?”
She didn't respond for a few more seconds and there is this awkward silence between us. Is she keeping a secret from me.
“Business.”
Yeah, I am starting to doubt this business thing. My eyes squinted as I am currently holding the plates. I already finished eating and I already know that I am going to wash the dishes.
Mom went upstairs at ako nalang ang nagligpit ng aming pinagkainan.
Today is really boring and then I remembered that they will probably come and pick me up to go to Fun Land.

Tick, tock...
Tick, tock...
Said the clock...
Nasa kwarto na naman ako, it's already afternoon and the sun is slowly going down. Siguro gusto nilang gabi kami pumunta. I already changed my clothes and I'm looking at the ceiling while laying down on my blue bed.
I'm wearing a pink dress with little floral designs and I tied my hair using a sky blue ribbon.
There are little stars painted on the ceiling at ngayon ko lang ito napansin and then there's a painting of the sun and moon, I was about to touch it when I heard the doorbell.
“HELLO!! MAY TAO PO BA? O MERON BANG ALIEN SA LOOB?!” ang lakas ng sigaw. It is Gabriel's voice.
“Walang tao, alien lang ang nakatira dito!” sigaw ko pabalik sa kanilang habang binubuksan ang gate.
