Aliyah's POV

"When tomorrow comes

I'll be on my own

Feeling frightened of

The things I don't know

When tomorrow comes

Tomorrow comes

Tomorrow comes"

I started singing while playing the piano. Hmmm.. It's been 5 days since umalis ako ng Pilipinas. Nasa Miami ako this is one of my Dad's gift for me sa 18th birthday ko.

And though the road is long

I look up to the sky

And in the dark I found, I stop and I won't fly

And I sing along, I sing along, then I sing along

Today I decided to play the piano. Namiss ko ang pagtugtog. Playing the piano makes me feel better.

Naalala ko na naman ang mga nangyari before ako umalis ng Pilipinas. Naiinis pa rin ako kay Evan kasi ang tanga-tanga niya para sa konting bagay lang ay sinampal niya ako. Pero ang tanga ko din kasi ang irrational ko.

I snapped out of my reverie ng someone hug me from the back. Agad naman akong napatingin sa kanya.

"MACY!"

"stop playing aalis tayo." sabi ni Macy saakin sabay ngiti.

"Naaa! Just want to stay here." 

"Come On Ali! Ate Whine's in town she wanted to see you. Wag ka ngang kj diyan."

"What in the world is she doing here in Miami?" 

"I don't know."

"Aish walang valid reason. I am not going."

"Ali naman! seriously? Nagbreak lang kayo ni Blake ayaw mo nang lumabas ng bahay at makipag socialize? Urggh!" 

"I just love to be alone."

"Urgggh! You're impossible Aliyah Glaise Watson!Nakakainis ka." sabi niya saakin at nagwalkout. Tumingin naman ako sa kanya  habang naglalakad siya palayo saakin.

Voila! Lumingon ulit siya saakin. Knowing Macy hindi yun susuko paghindi ako pumapayag sa gusto niya.

"What?" Tinaasan ko siya ng kilay.

"Ali please. Sige na sumama ka na." nagpuppy eyes siya. Nakakatawang tiningnan, misan lang maging ganito si Macy kaya naman I'm going to enjoy this moment.

"OMG! Am I really seeing this?" Sabi ko habang pinipigilan ang sarili kung matawa.

"Ali naman! I know tatawa ka any minute from now pero sige na." 

"Ayaw ko pa rin!"

"Ali naman."

"Sige na nga! Ang kulit mo." I said at nagmadaling pumunta sa kwarto ko para magbihis. I looked for a dress to wear but I ended up wearing a crop top and shorts plus my fave sneakers. 

*ring ring* 

I know it was my phone. I immediately look for it and voila nandoon lang sa bedside table ko nakalagay. 

I looked at the caller ID before answering but it was an unknown number. I have a feeling na kilala ko ang sino ang tumatawag pero I set aside that thought and then I answered the call.
