I felt like the world crashed. Like it's the end already. It was as if everything you believe, everything that you hold most dear is now gone and in shambles. And it could never be repaired again no matter how much you try.
Now, as I sit beside Aki with the beach infront of us, it was as if she have the magic to repair all of it, healing all the wounds I hide using my sweater, and wiping the tears that dried.
Aki is always been there for me. She would somehow heal the wounds as if she was meant to do that in her lifetime. It's no wonder why I like her.
"What are you scared of?" She asked with her hands behind her supporting her weight. She's not looking at me because she's busy looking up at the stars.
Humiga ako at tinitigan din ang tinitingnan niya. Natahimik ako sa tinanong niya at napaisip. There's a lot of things I am scared of, that's for sure.
"It's probably a lot, Seni." She added. Tahimik lang kami sa mga dumaan na minuto.
"Aki, how you manage it?"
"Living with the fact that my parents are divorced and they now have a new family?" She chuckled after that. She looked at the sea infront of us, stretching to hell knows how far.
"You just get to use living in that reality and somehow you will realize that you have to manage things, good or bad. To keep the balance in your life. Kasi kung hindi, lalamunin ka." She looked at me and smiled.
"That's reality, Seni. 'Wag mo ikulong sarili mo sa ideyang kung ano ang gusto mo, ganoon na rin ang mangyayari. Hindi natin hawak ang mundo."
