Augustine's POV
I was dreaming of hot girls when I was woken up by the sound of my alarm. I smashed the alarm to stop the annoying ringing coming out of it. Tangina! Sino ba gumawa ng sounds na 'yan? Nakakarindi!
I got up and I immediately checked my phone. Yes, phone muna, baka may emergency kasi kaya ito muna ang unang tinitignan ko palagi.
Ini-open ko ang messenger ko para tingnan kung may nag message ba sa'kin pero wala naman. Sino ba naman ako para i-message? Haha. Nilagay ko sa side table ang phone ko para i-charge bago pumunta ng banyo.
Nasa harapan ako ngayon ng mirror ko at pinag-aaralan ko ang sarili ko. A lot of people praise me for my looks, but they don't know how insecured I am. Kung alam kaya nila ang tinatago ko, mata-tanggap nila ako? I doubt it.
Ganon naman ang mga tao ngayon. They praise you because you're good looking, but once you show them you're true colors, aalis sila. Mga punyeta.
I decided to take a cold shower to brush off my thoughts awhile ago. I don't want to overthink this early. After 30 minutes, I got out and went to my walk-in closet. I chose to wear a khaki-colored polo shirt partnered with a pair of trousers and white shoes. After doing my rituals ay bumaba na ako diretso sa kusina.
"Good morning, darling," My Mom greeted me. I kissed her cheeks before sitting on the chair beside her.
"Morning, Mom. Where are the others?" I asked while putting some garlic rice and a sunny side up on my plate. Sabay-sabay kaming kumakain ng pamilya ko kaya nakakapagtaka na wala ang mga kapatid ko at si daddy sa lamesa.
"'Yong Papa mo nasa trabaho na dahil may meeting sila sa kumpanya and 'yong mga kuya at ate mo naman ay tulog pa. Hayaan mo na ang mga 'yon at mga pagod iyon," She answered while reading the newspaper she's holding. Nag-inom pala sila kagabi kasi birthday ni ate, pinapasali nila ako kaso hindi ako umiinom. Mabait ako eh.
My Mom is a doctor while my dad is a business man. 'Yong mga kapatid ko naman ay graduate na ng kolehiyo habang ako naman ay nag-aaral pa.
Apat kaming magkakapatid. The eldest is a girl, si ate Vivian, she's currently in law school. The second and third one are twins, si ate Stella and kuya Khalil. Ate Stella is now becoming a doctor and kuya Khalil naman is in aviation.
And lastly me, Augustine Silas. Isang palamunin sa bahay, char! I'm in 3rd year college, psychology major.
I like to study people and their behavior hence why I pursued psychology. I also have a passion of helping. I want to help those who suffers from the inside, people who are imprisoned by their minds.. like me.
Aside from psychology, I also have a passion for music. I like singing because it helps me relax. I'm not talkative, but I turn into a monster when I have the mic.
This talent is something I hide from people that even my closest friends don't know I sing, only my family knows. I can't sing in front of a crowd, hindi ko kaya. My mind clouds with thoughts of me disappointing everyone.. of everyone judging me.
I play instruments such as piano, drums, guitar, and violin at ito ang kaya kong ipakita, ito ang kaya kong iharap at ipagyabang sa mga tao.
I looked at my watch to see how many minutes I have left until my first class starts, I still have 1 hour left so I took my time eating. Pagkatapos ko ay nilagay ko na sa lababo ang ginamit kong plato at baso bago umakyat sa kwarto ko para mag toothbrush.
I grabbed my things and my keys and went down stairs. I kissed my mom goodbye before going out of the house. I went straight to our garage to see my baby... My black Ducati XDiavel. Classic na motor, napakapogi! Bagay sa'kin hehehe.
I stand 5 foot 11 in height kaya kayang-kaya ko ang mga malalaking motor. I'm also fit because I go to the gym religiously, na influence ako ni kuya Khalil na kulang nalang ay tumira na sa gym.
I turned the engine on and waited for a couple of minutes, pinapainit ko muna ang makina para maging maayos ang circulation ng oil. Tinuro sa'kin iyon ni dad na mahilig rin sa mga sasakyan. I love cars too, pero iba pa rin kapag nakasakay ka sa motor eh. I feel free.
Sinuot ko na ang aking helmet at pinaandar na ito. I turned on the speaker that's in my helmet to listen to some music.
