Voice Behind A screen

You Again

Winter Break will be over soon, and Taylor has just been in his house for the past five days. Not only that but most of the time he has been on his own in his room passing time and not doing anything, his parents did say that they will probably be going on a road trip to the hills in two days but deep down he doubts that because of his parent's busy schedule, he understands and respect that his parents are even trying to spend some time with him and he is grateful for it.     

                                                                              Being on his own makes his mind go silent and for his thoughts to go deep and loud. He is reminded of the time he lost his close friends because of a misunderstanding and even till now he still feels like his friends might be around and they can insult and hurt him which he had gone through. That feeling of people invalidating him and leaving him alone, making him feel useless, hurts him too much. There were times when he would secretly drink and just sleep while being drunk just to get things to pass on, he misses his old friends but he now knows that they are not the best for him, because they are dangerous. 

                                                                             So do not think he decides to go to the park with his Pitbull and German Shepherd love child, Exca. Exca became his dog when he was at his lowest, his parents knew that something caused him to be upset and decided to surprise him with Exca when she was just 7 months, she understood his pain when she was separated from her family and needed comfort and receiving one from Taylor's family and experiencing abandonment makes her understand Taylor's feeling, although "just a dog" they all have better sensibility than most humans.   

                                                                              While in the park he realizes that he will have to meet Adrien, the guy who has been picking on him for six to seven months. Adrien is loud and annoying when it comes to Taylor, it is like he cares but he doesn't at the same time, and with the additional fact that his parents aren't always home because of their busy schedule at work, the "caring" side that Adrien sometimes gives to him makes him happy and fulfilled, he does find Adrien "interesting". Who can blame him, a six-foot-four inches tall guy who is lean muscular, dark brown eyes and strong jawline and browline, not to mention his amazing skills at sport and his voice which is considerably charming.s But he still stands by his words that even though Adrien is hot and respectfully charming, if he is mean and disrespectful on the inside, he is just ugly.   

                                                                            Thinking about how attractive and "cool" Adrien is reminded him of the crushes he has had in the past. Fiona, the one who threw him aside just because he had a crush on her. Jean, the one who humiliated him because he wasn't cool enough and Katherine more known as "Kat", the girl he had a crush on and then realizing why she never loved him back was because she is in love with another girl. All these crushes are nothing compared to the one who made him "realized" that he was not just into girls only but guys too.

                                                                            Gaddiel was the first guy he had a big crush on, he looks amazing, everybody knows him as a gentle soul and polite, the teachers loved him and he had all heads turn to him when he walks up into a room, his charisma is so attractive and the way he speaks and his voice makes you want to just sit and listen to whatever he is going to say. He is all Taylor wished to have in a boyfriend. He had hoped that by each day, Gaddiel might talk to him or maybe bump to him in the halls or just waved by Gaddiel, but it never came, and Gaddiel who is as old as him moved away and all of Taylor's hopes and dreams of dating Gaddiel disappeared. He felt deep scars from loving Gaddiel, the toxic cycle, although just 3 months was more impactful than the other crushes he has had in the past. Taylor was so head over heels for Gaddiel that he would have done anything for him, He was so keen of being with someone so unattainable.

                                                                              After walking Exca, he came home and he sees cars parked outside and his house brightly lighten, surprised to see that, he rushed in and he sees his parents doing housework and their bags on the sofa and jackets on the table. He was filled with excitement and joy seeing his parents back home again. He knew that these moments don't come so often so he tries his best to do all he can to make it memorable and fun. They ate and talked about live and especially their son's love life and some parents would.

                                                                            Fillen Haylind, who is Taylor's father, works as a doctor, specifically a vet. He loves animals and how unique they all are compared to other living beings, one thing that he always says is that "Animals sees the everything in those little things we call nothing" meaning that animals can sense the most little thing and has the guard up and down at the same time. The ability to understand and be present but let loose at the same time are the things that makes animals so interesting to Fillen. Exca is actually a dog who was sent to his clinic and never picked up, the name "Exca" which kinda sounds like the word "Exactly" is the reason why Fillen named the dog Exca. Because of the timing of is "Exact" and hence the name given to the dog. Fillen does not really interest himself in anything but learning, reading and more knowledge is his passion and caused him to have big thick lensed glasses.

                                                                           Nina Haylind or by her "Before Marriage" name, Nina Seda Odyssey Violet Martinez is, well you can say Chemist or Herbalist, put it in simple terms, she is a doctor who creates and looks into ways to improve medication, both modern and homeopathy. She loves to take care of her garden when she has some spare time and just listening to old classics while tending her plants. She has had first hand experienced with plants and herbs, when she was a kid she got a burned mark on her hand, thinking that maybe she could heal it without specialized burned medication, she took some random plants outside her house and then making them to a mud like consistency and putting it on her scar. The next day she got a skin infection and the doctors had to do a quick incision on her scar and open it up, now a few decades later the mark is still there, as a reminder of how powerful the knowledge about plant is and the thing that made her interest in plants and herbs come to life.

                                                                          It got to twelve o'clock sharp, the big clock in the house made a noise, signing that its late. Although sixteen, because his parents aren't always around he was tucked in bed by both of his parents and kissed good night.He can't wait to wake up and pack for their trip tomorrow evening, the listening to music and having fun is all he could think about, right before he closed his eyes. 

                                                                          It is the morning and Taylor wakes up with more excitement than usual, he packs all his thing and goes to his parents's room to wake them up and when he saw how tired and deeply in sleep they were, he decided to drop the "waking up" and just made breakfast. And then in the afternoon they went on the trip and had some time bonding with each other after some time of not being able to.
