❝ The Man I Fell In love With ❞
—✦ Elara
Year 2007, it was a bright summer day with the luminous sun ruling over the sky. Sun rays were scattered in every corner of my surroundings, casting collection of shadows on surfaces.
The trees danced along the gentle wind. The clouds in the sky fluffed into shapes of cotton. The vibrant hue of the grass covering the ground tickled my sole. What a perfect day to play.
Subalit ang mga tao sa paligid ko ay nagluluksa—and my 9-year-old self wasn't having it.
Everyone's grieving over an old woman who was unfamiliar to me. Napatingin lamang ako kay Dad at Mom na nakasuot ng itim na damit na tulad ng suot ng iba pang tao sa paligid ko.
Nakatayo lamang sila habang pinakikinggan ang nag-ii-speech na isang matandang lalaki sa harapan, sa likuran niya ay naroroon ang isang kabaong. Mukhang asawa n'ong lolo ang matandang babaeng nakaratay roon.
We're at a wide garden in a big mansion which was bigger than ours! But the event today was tedious, I don't even get why everyone looked melancholic.
Kaya naman ay tinakasan ko sina Mom at Dad nang hindi nila napapansin. Humagikgik ako dahil do'n. They were easy to sneak from!
I went astray throughout the garden. Ang lawak nito at ang daming puno't halaman! May mga magagandang flowers din at may malaking fountain pa akong nakita.
Lumapit ako sa fountain na iyon at sumilip sa tubig nito, ngunit nadismaya ako nang makita kong walang isda roon.
Tsk! A fountain with no fish? How disappointing.
Malayo ang napadparan ko mula sa kinaroroonan nina Mom at Dad, subalit hindi man lang ako nag-alala na baka hinahanap na nila ako.
