I sit by the window where cool air blows
I think of you while looking at the far sky
I must be a fool who can't be helped
Even when four seasons changed, I don't

I sang softly as I watch the busy street across where I'm seating, waiting for my bus to arrive. It's really great to have a time where you can appreciate the world around you 'no? Great time to reflect and realize things. 

What comes to your mind in the moment of silence? 

Me? A lot. When I say a lot, I really mean a lot. Sometimes unrealistic, sometimes unimaginable and most of the time, out of this world. 

*Beep beep*

Oh, here comes my bus! 

As soon as I sat on my seat, I instantly plugged my earphones in and allowed myself to feel the music. 

This is gonna be a long travel. Tiring yet fulfilling. 

My thoughts where interrupted when suddenly someone excused himself and asked, 

"Is this seat taken?"
"No, po" I answered as I adjusted my seat and took my bag so he can seat beside me. 
"Thanks", he said as he rest his head on the back of the chair. 

He is wearing our school uniform so I figured out that we go to the same university. 

I think he fell asleep. Maybe he's exhausted. Me either, though. 

We have Youth Gatherings every Friday night and my apartment is far from my church so I have to travel 1 and a half our at least. Alam ko malayo, pero gusto ko eh. And the people around my team is my stress reliever, kahit na napagod ako sa pagtugtog kanina at pagdaldal sa kanila hahaha

"Sandigan na, sandigan" sigaw ni kuyang condoktor. 

Welp! Dito na pala ako.

Tatayo na sana ako pero naalala ko na tulog pala ang katabi ko. Hala, papano ako dadaan niyan? 

As soon as the bus stopped, I panicked so I said to this stranger,

"Kuya excuse me po"

Tumingin siya at nagbuntong hiniga. Ang sama ng tingin sa akin.



Wow ha?
