STELLAR
There is a saying that no man is an island, but at times, solitude is necessary for individuals to process things better
or simply to know themselves better
And now, I am thinking about her, the woman who treated herself less than she deserves.
It's been ages since I sincerely listen to her thoughts and ideas, it's been a long time since I acknowledge her abilities and strengths, I am too dumb ignoring her
She needs my trust
She needs me to believe in her
Because after all, I am her

Finally! After almost an hour, I finished setting up my tent. Hindi ko na rin namalayan na madilim na pala ang kapaligiran dito sa Camp 2 kung saan kami magpapalipas ng gabi bago umakyat sa summit ng Pulag.
I decided to get my portable camping lamp then seated comfortably sa bukana ng tent. I stretched out my legs dahil ramdam ko na ang pananakit ng binti ko mula sa pag-akyat kanina
Hindi ko maiwasang mapatingin sa kalangitan, madilim pero nagniningning dahil sa hindi mabilang na mga bituin
I hate to say that the stars are terrifyingly beautiful up here—they even looked unrealistic
But the reality is, those freaking shining things above are only bringing back memories to me that I know will never happen again
So even I might look weird, I put on my cap and hoping I can say I am alone but not lonely
I put on my earphones, shut my eyes and escape for awhile
"Kain tayo"
I heard someone talking to someone else.. hindi ko rin gaano naintindihan dahil naka full volume ang music ko
so I kept my eyes shut and just vibe with the current song playing
"Kakain po"
Now it is clearer but not quiet sure if that person is talking to someone else or to me
Just to confirm, I glanced to my left, and there I saw a smiling face before me.
How on earth his tent is here right beside me?!
will you stop smiling? not a big fan of dimples.
I smiled awkwardly and just shooked my head in response
Kumain na ako bago ayusin ang tent ko at kahit gutom ako wala naman ako balak sumalo sa pagkain ni kulot o kung sino man dito sa camping site.
As what I said, I am in my solitary mode
I keep vibing with my music and enjoy the smell of nature and the cold breeze
Good thing that I brought my bubble jacket and thick gloves
After spending an hour dealing with my mixed up thoughts, I decided na matulog na lang ng maaga so I will have a full energy tomorrow
Patayo na sana ako nang magsalita nanaman si Kulot
"wait"
Out of nowhere, he blurted, and I gave him a questioning stare in response
