"She who becomes my sister"

As I finished saving the files I'm working for almost a week already, I had a deep sigh and silently celebrating for the job well done. I closed my laptop and readied my things to go home.

I don't know what has gotten into me, when I decided to just walk and have some fresh air for the mean time.

While walking, I noticed the old playground. So, I stopped for a while and sit in the wooden bench. I've always been curious why it is abandoned. When in fact this place is great.

Minute passed I played a music to broke the silence. It's already 5:30 p.m. and the sky is starting to get dark. I was about to leave but some weird noises stopped me.

I looked around but I didn't find anything. Until my sight went to the colorful slide. I noticed a light under it.

So, I slowly moved and walked my way to the slide. I'm still hearing the noise, it was like a glass clicking together with a soft cries.

They always says that "Curiosity kills a cat" but nah, I'm not a cat. So I continued, and What I found out almost give me a heart attack.

A shocked little girl is looking at me holding a glass plate in her left hand, while in her right hand she's holding a broken knife.

I looked around and I saw some dirty clothes, plastics, food in a styrofoam, which is obviously a leftover from trash and a lighter that has a flashlight. So, I guess that was the light I saw coming from.

I looked back to the girl, I saw tears in her cheeks and she's now hugging her knees while saying " Kuya, 'wag po."

I tried to reach her when she cried aloud while saying "kuya, 'wag po." over again.

I felt sorry for the little girl that I almost cried because of pity.

"Hey there, baby girl. Hindi ka sasaktan ni kuya, ok?" I said calmly but she still hesitated.

After an hour of talking, I finally convinced the girl to come with me. I brought Nana to our house and introduced her to my Mom.

Mom, had so much questions, So I explained to her on how Nana and I met.

We learned from Nana that both her parents died due to a car accident and they Owned that playground. It is a gift from her Lolo to her Mom.

When Momma heard Nana's story she cried and hug Nana. She bathed Nana and let her sleep in my room.

After a week, Nana officially became my sister. Mom adopted the 8 years old girl. And it turned out that she really is my sister, a half sister.

Nana is my dad's child to his wife. He ditched his responsibility to Mom when he learned that Mom was pregnant with me when they are still 16, very young to have a child. So, he run away to avoid responsibility. He married Nana's Mom after he graduated and have Nana as their only child.
