My Ride or Die (She's my Alibi) - Hambebe AU

Chapter 4

a little flashback of Sky's POV earlier that day

Skylar's POV

Here I am in the land of the free! Finally, freedom muna from anything related to my family.

I'm happy naman. Pero why do I feel like, para akong pinatapon sa ibang bansa ang peg. haha.

Anyways, I don't really care at all as much as they don't really care din naman for me.

Good thing, I visited mom's grave muna. Mom's musileyo is so freaking big. It can even pass as a house na eh. Pero siya lang naman andun. Kaya pag sobrang lunod ako sa kalungkutan, I actually sleep there. I talk to her all night, eat with her and spill jokes and chika minute with her.

Lalo ko lang din kasi nararamdaman na malungkot siya don. Ayaw naman kasi niya kong dalawin. It's been years pero she never really even visited me.

Even in my dreams. Pero hindi ako nagtatampo. Why? Kasi mas lalo ko nafeel that she truly cares and loves me. She knows how much I am afraid of ghosts and the likes.

Pero I told her naman na she can show up, as long as hindi white yung gown niya like the typical white lady.

If she can request sa heaven to go down in style. Like wear purple gown ganon, with matching flower crowns.

Para naman hindi talaga siya mukhang ghost diba? Kidding aside. It's been more than a decade, but the pain of her absence still feels like she just left me yesterday.

Oh wow.. ano to.. Tears?! Sky! Stop crying. You're supposed to be enjoying your vacation! And that assignment of yours? Later na yan, reserve natin yan for cramming hours para may thrill! haha.

At the Airbnb

Ang cute naman naman ng tiny house! Good thing na I already bought some grocery stuffs before heading dito.

Kudos na rin ng konti kay dad for making sure na may rented car na ko here. And it's a freaking Tesla baby! Kaso black, boring ng color. Black isn't even considered as a color!

Contrary to the belief of people around me, I hate being followed around by security and helpers. It makes me feel like a prisoner of some sort.

I wanted freedom and independence. Oo maluho ako, I like me-some dollar bills. But ever since mom passed away, mas ginusto ko na lang to be alone all the times.

Although wala akong magagawa if dad will still put security sa house and so many helpers like a typical rich man would do.

Though I still find it weird bakit walang Caldwell property here sa states? Like resthouse ganun?

Sa Australia lang ata meron eh, kaso puro spiders, snakes and kung anu ano pang creepy creatures andun sa bahay na yun!

Last time I went there, I woke up na may katitigan na pala akong non-venomous snake sa paanan ng bed ko!

Chills everytime I remember!

Anyways, baka ako na lang ang bibili ng property here once I get a hold of that money.

Such a coincidence that the first four numbers of the code is my birthday.

I started roaming around the house, the kitchen, the living area. So cozy!

If sa pinas, I stock some alcoholic drinks sa small fridge ko sa bedroom to help me sleep at some nights na inaatake ako ng insomnia, here I feel like drinking milk and eating cookies like a child.

I wanna relieve my childhood everytime I am given the opportunity to get outside the country.

I put the cookies and milk muna sa fridge.
