You can listen to the song.. or not. Enjoy reading!

The sun seemed to be falling as earth wore its wings, hovering - flying. Gloom outreached like a giant hand while the remaining yellow rest upon my face.
Ever and still..
"A beauty, isn't she?" A humming notes rose for appreciation. His words hung on air as Atlas awaits my deviation from silence. But I only stood there, displaying my refusal to entertain his concern.
"Brooklyn,"
"Brooklyn.. hey."
"Do we.. do we have a problem?" Our eyes met.
We?
I had glowed with the silly lightness of solitude -like a bird's peck plucking the earth alone. And beyond this, I remember how my life had been plunged up, only doing the things at best.
His.. his question, it was as might narrated from oceans, mountains and a song. Like a songbird had sung, rather than something I have lived.
We...
I really thought I was standing on a field alone.
I dragged my look upwards, stifling it into his. Helios had almost ushered his rays somewhere, enveloping everything pale and dusk.
But until the line between my brows immediately distort ng salubungin ito ng araw. Umiwas agad ako.
"Hindi mo na ako kinakausap." It was then I realized a weight of emotion floated on.
"Why would I?"
"Why would you not?"
As triumphant Helios and his rays moments ago, Atlas only made it momentary. He closed our distance, hence immediate and closer, I was no longer bathed with yellows and oranges.
"Do we have a problem, Brook?" Ulit nito. His faint waver of straightened posture betrayed his desperate feigning of not showing his despondence.
"No." I did not explain any further.
"Please, tell me."
I hauled a deep exhalation for my about-words but immediately dropped when I saw his tilting head.
I looked up, wondering instead.
"So what if I won't talk to you?" Napakurap ito before stifling it after me. It encouraged afterthought and pulse beating thickly in veins.
"I put value on my people." He breathed.
"I'm not your people."
"I know." I will tell you how he gently whispered, but oh, you should have seen his smile.
Why?
"But how could you not know?"
Napataas ang kilay ko sa tanong nito. He smiled before slightly scrunching his nose.
"Your affect on people."
My effect on people?
"Should I tell you?"
Apparently, father had been absolutely clear on that part.
"Dissatisfaction.."
"Disappointment.."
"A fool of a daughter.."
My ears prickled from the faint encouragement of his words. The ringing within my ear pounded involuntarily claiming the about words I wish to not hear.
