"I'll go now."

Pagpapaalam ko sa kanila. Im going to transfer my belongings sa condo ko na binili for me years ago. I am entering Med School here in the Philippines even though gusto nina Mama na doon na lang sa Amerika but I insisted here. At the end,I'm here.

"Be careful some other time. You might really hit the tree."

Seeing that lady almost bump her forehead in the tree makes me worried. For some reason,sa puno ako nagaalala. She was wearing her uniform. May hawak pang libro. She's probably reviewing. Nakasuot pa siya ng specs. She is also wearing her Medical Uniform. Katulad ng suot ko.

"Please introduce yourself."saad ng Prof.

I'm not really a fan or introducing. I don't want to introduce who am I. Not that I hate my name but I don't want other people would interfere my private life. I mind my own business the way other people does. Having her friends with me shake my whole system. They were so loud and talkative. They never went silent kapag magkakasama. I found out her name too. And I could say,right from day one that her family and my family are related.

Madeline Teresa Filippe

That's her name. I became one of her friends. Madalas ko na silang kasama other than my old friends. 

"Theron!"a lady approach me out of nowhere in this freaking bar.

Kiron,my DLSU friend drag me in one of the bara here in Manila. This fucking asshole! Right after knowing na nandito ako sa MNL,tinawagan agad ako to send my location at sinundo just to drink. Wala sa plano ko ang makipag-inuman but for some reason I did. It was Lana. A friend of mine back in the village we were staying before.

"Why the fuck you don't tell me your here na?!"singhal niya sa akin.

"Why are the both of you here? Don't tell me you drag this man here! You punk!"she accused. Inambahan niya pa si Kiron ng suntok.

"Ikaw? Why are you here?"tanong ko sa kanya. I saw her smirked and conclude she's a party girl.

Nagkipag-usap pa siya sa akin until she drag us in their couch where her friends were. And I saw her again. Madi is a friend of Lana too. Small world! She looked nervous. I don't know why. Lana is so wild that night that we ended up taking them home. Kiro,their friend took their other friends home. Si 'Sab',their one of friends,he was taken home by her cousin. The famous actress. I don't know her name. But Kiron did. And I ended up taking Madi on my condo. I don't know where she lived! I took out my cleanser and remove her make ups. Hinayaan ko siya matulog until,I woke up and cook something for her. Her Mom keeps on calling through her phone but I did not took it. Baka magulat ang Mommy niya na Isang guy ang kuma-usap sa kanya.

"Hey...What's our problem?"

Seeing her crying and looking devastated that night,I can't help but to feel this un-usual feeling inside me. Right after hearing her side,I calmed. Her Dad slapped her that's why she walk out and drove her car here. Ewan ko kung paano niya natandaan ang condo building ko. Talas ng memory!

I let her stay for the mean time. Being with her in my condo feels home. I never felt this feeling ever since. I guess,I'm falling. We started getting to know each other more now we're in one place. Madalas,sabay kaming nagre-review,gumawa ng assignment, and even shared every dinner kada uwi namin. She cooked for me and I did also the same thing. That's our routine for the days she's been staying at my condo.
