(Mom's Story)

"Hey mom, I'm gonna be fine here Paris. Alam ko po kung saan ang bahay ni Aunt Clarice." I said to mom over the phone.

"All I'm saying hija, wala ako para bantayan ka. You are my only daughter." She said on the other line.

"Mom I'm 24, do you still think I'm 15? Sige na po mom I gotta go."

"Okay, okay. Pero take care ha? And my pasalubong dont forget."

"Haha. Okay mommy. Bye."

Moms, why are they so over protective. Anyways my name is Shannon Guevara. I'm 24 as I have said. And I'm here in Paris to shop! Haha. Just kidding, eto lang naman ako ineenjoy ang young life ko.

I just wanna travel and live my life. Gusto kong pasyalin ang buong daigdig! Lilibutin ko ang whole universe kung pwede lang. But I want half of my exploring with my family. My own family.

Pero malayo pa yan. Di pa nga ako nakakalahati sa daigdig eh nagiging excited na ako sa other half. I'll just enjoy this first.

Anyways, I'm off to my aunt Clarice. She owns a clothing business here. Kapatid sya ng mommy ko which happens to be my bestfriend too. Baket? Eh shopping lang naman nasa isip namin eh. Hahaha. Edi Wow.

Ay wait. Andito na pala ako sa Grand ******** Subdivision. Daming magagarang bahay! Naks! Maka pasok nga.

"Excuse me Miss, do you have an appointment of zee people here?" Sabi nung Guard nung papasok na sana ako.

"Ah yes, I'm off to Clarice's house. Clarice Ferd." Then he smiled.

"You maybe Shannon? Well her house is that second house over there color blue."

"Merci!" And he nodded.

Nakakanose bleed yung accent. Hahaha. Pinay ako di ako French. Pero I love this country so much. Because of FASHION.

Well I'm here. Now I just need to press the door bell.

*DING DONG*

"Shannon? Is that you dear?" A lady said by the window.

"Yes aunt Clarice. Its me."

Then I heard her squeel. She opened the door in excitement and she almost even fall.

"Dahan dahan lang po."

"Oh clumsy me. Haha. But dear I'm so glad you're here! Welcome dearie."

"Grabe aunt Clarice ang laki ng bahay mo. Kagaya talaga sa dream house natin."

"Aba syempre naman! Pinaghirapan ko to eh. Come inside dear and feel at home. Shopping tayo after you fix."

So yun, pumasok na kami at umakyat na ako sa room ko. The house of hers is way so grand. Ganito ba talaga dapat mga bahay dito?

Pimasok narin ako ni aunt Clarice sa room ko para makapag chika. Finifix ko gamit ko habang nag uusap sa kanya. And not too long natapos narin ako.

"So lets go?"

And we went out to shop finally. Dinala nya ako kung saan saan. Marami narin kaming nabili. I had fun so much.

Right now nasa isang coffee shop kami. I'm going to pay for this kasi she toured me around. But as I looked to my wallet wala yung CC ko.

"Auntie naiwan ko credit card sa Forever 21. I'll just go get it and I'll be back."

Nag nod lang naman si auntie. At yun pumunta na ako sa Forever 21. But on my way there nakabunggo ako ng isamg lalaki. He's not French but yet he's..........British.

"Sorry. Here." Inalalayan nya ako.

"Thank you."

Wala na akong time para makipagflirt. Naghihintay si Auntie sakin. Kaya nagpaalam na ako at umalis na.

Goosh! That dude is totally handsome. Navy Blue eyes. Brown haired. Gosh! The nose man! Landiiii! Haha. But he was my ideal man.

Nakuha ko na ang CC ko at nagmadali akong bumalik dun kung saan kami nagbangga baka nasa stores lang sya. But he's gone. San na kaya sya?

(Back To Reality)

Di ko na kayang makinig pa. My eyes are so tired na. But I wanna finish the story. But I'm so sleepy.

I closed my eyes then I felt my moms gentle kiss on my head.

"Sweet dreams my princess."
