I heard the announcement ng isang flight attendant, marami pa syang pinagsasabi pero hindi ko na pinakinggan ang iba. Hindi nag tagal ay unti-unti ng nag silabasan ang mga pasahero. Ayokong ipagsiksikan ang sarili ko kaya naghintay muna akong makababa ang lahat, nang mapansin kong iilan nalamang kami ay kinuha kona ang mga gamit ko.

I felt the air touched my skin as I stepped outside the plane. I sighed and continue walking down the plane.

"Finally, naka uwi na ako ulit dito sa manila. I missed this place but i think this place don't missed me." Pagdadaldal ko habang palinga linga sa paligid at sinasamsam ang masarap na halimuyak ng hanging tumatama sa porselana kong kutis.

Na tigil ang pag mo moment ko when someone interrupt, wala sa oras kong na baba ang shades ko at napa tingin sa bata.

"Excuse me ate kindly move pa harang harang ka kasi sa daan eh." Ma arteng saad nito.

"Awh sorry for that, pwede ka ng dumaan." Ngiting saad ko sakanya.

Inirapan nya ako tsaka na sya nag lakad. Hindi makapaniwalang sinundan ko lang sya ng tingin. Hindi kona lamang iyon pinansin.

And when I looked around l'm not surprised knowing na walang sumundo sa akin dito sa airport, well wala naman kasing nakakaalam na uuwi ako ngayon.

Dumeretso ako sa labasan at pumara ng taxi.

Habang naka sakay ay hindi ko ma iwasang balikan ang nakaraan ko dito.

It's been five years since I left without him knowing. Yung mga panahong ginawa ko ang bawal pero dun ako sumaya.

He introduced me to his world, he accepted me into his life. We are so happy back then, everything seems to be perfect until that happened, everything crashed.

I signed heavily, reminiscing the past is fun not until na aabot ka sa part kung saan nawala ang lahat.
For the second time, I signed. I turned my gaze at the window.

Big establishment, a big company owned by a rich businessman. I slightly open the window letting the air outside came in. I admit I miss this place, yung mabigat na traffic na hanggang ngayon hindi parin nalulutasan, the polluted air, the black smoke from a vehicle. I smiled in my mind at those stupid thoughts.

Hindi nagtagal binagtas na namin ang isang pamilyar na daan. A path and the end of this path is where my life's beginning. Nang maka baba.

"Ahh manong just pit it there na lang po, thanks."

And i'm now standing in front of this huge gate. I tightly grip my bag as I slowly walk towards the entrance, I don't know what's waiting for me at the end of this path, hindi naman kalayuan ang bahay sa gate.

I looked around the area. I can say that nothing is changed, same as before. A warm breeze touches my skin and I can feel the fresh air coming from the trees around and their branches make a shadow preventing the sunlight come into contact with my body.

I knocked three times as I reach the door. Hindi naman nag tagal ay may nagbukas na ng pinto. It's one of our housemaids, halatang nagulat sya ng makita ako.

"Ma'am Emethys" sabi nya at yumuko.

I just smiled in response. Isa sya sa mga katulong na nagtagal dito sa bahay because of my bratty attitude back then maraming kasambahay na sumuko but it all changed when I met him.

Iginaya nya ako papuntang sala pero I insisted na dumeretso nalang sa kwarto ko.

"Paki hatid nalang po ng gamit ko sa taas." Tumango lang sya at nag simula ng kunin ang mga gamit ko para ilagay sa taas.

I looked around the house, like at the outside nothing is changed here. The living room screams with elegance with all the expensive things around.

There is our big family picture hanging on the wall. In that frame there is my mother smiling gracefully as if an angel is just staring straight in front of the camera while sitting in the throne-like chair, there is also my father standing at the left side of my mom with the looks displaying his serious face as he stood there with full of authority, and lastly, there was me, my teenage version, I can see how intimidating I am, I'm fiercely standing at the right side of my mom with that black dress.

I could still remember the day of that pictorial. We almost take ithundreds of shots because the photographer can't get my right angle, I'm so pissed that time that's why I end up with those looks. I smile as I remembered the past.

I continue walking towards the stairs. I don't know if going back here is a good idea. My parents are not around, obviously busy because of work.

I stood in front of a familiar door and inside is my place, a witness of my agony.

I slowly open the door. I feel nostalgic as I looked around, I don't know what the maid did but my favorite bare vanilla frosted scent lingered in my nose. I close my eyes and let the fragrant last in my nose. As I open my eyes, my gaze directly locked on the frame at my bedside table, I stared at the picture and I just feel like a needle prick on my chest.

I slowly walked towards my bed and sit near the table where the picture is. I reach the frame and look at it closely, in the picture of a girl smiling with her hands clinging at the man standing next to her, with those dark tantalizing eyes.

Aish! Okay I won't talk about that. Past is past diba? I sighed and open the drawer on my bedside table and I put the picture frame. Itatago ko nalang ang mga bagay na magpapa-alala sa kanya. Kung ano man ang nakaraan doon nalang yun. Hindi ako aahon sa kasalukuyan kung hanggang nayon ay nakukulong parin ako sa nakaraan. Maybe I should stop thinking about that and focus on the reason why I came back here.
