The Dying Angel

"Go Odeth! faster!"
"Odeth! faster! you can do this!"
just a little bit faster... yes.. i can do this.. I'm near to the finish line.... fastteerrrr........
"Prrrttt!!!"
"AND STILL OUR DEFENDING CHAMPION, ODETH MAURICE SMITH. FROM DELTA ACADEMY."
the host announced... i was almost deafed by the crowds cheers...
Yes.. I did it again! Apat na taon na di parin ako natatalo. Umahon na ako mula sa pol.. Sinalubong ako ng coach ko..
"anak, that's okay.. better luck next time" napalingon ako sa narinig ko, nakita ko si Jamie na pinupunasan ng mom nya... and again there they are. May family sya na sumusuporta at nagcocomfort sa kanya....
"Odeth, nice job!" nabalik ako sa sarili ko pagkasabi nun ni coach..
"oh no, thankz to you.." i answered with a fake smile on my face.. ayaw ko naman na madis-appoint siya.. pinag hirapan nyang i train aku tapuz di ko manlang siya pasasalamatan... im not like that..
"hahaha... Sige Odeth, mauna na ako.. may pupuntahan pa eh" sabay wink sakin
"k coach! ingat" then i waved goodbye
That's my 24 years old coach.. Actually he's to young to be one, pero dahil hes to good, kaya siya ang napili ko. He is a tall guy with a masculine body, blonde hair, blue eyes,.. that's how i describe him.. He's every girls dream guy. But despite all the girls that is chasing after him, he remains loyal to Amanda Douran. BUT THAT'S A NOTHER STORY.. hihihi
DAhil sa imagination ko di ko namalayan na nag-iisa na pala ako.. *sigh*
I let go a deep sigh.. As always.. im alone
I hurried to the bathroom and changed into my jeans, blue t-shirt and black converse. I took my bag from the locker which is only located outside the bathroom..
I took a final glance of the pool, my battlefield.. Till we meet again..
Then i sprinted out of the gym...
I slowed down and walked normally when i reached the gate.. I waited for my service for almost an hour but still my service isn't here yet.. so i fetched my phone from my Roxy backpack then dialed my mothers number.
"hello mom"
"oh! hi dear" she said in her sweet voice
"mom. my service isn't here yet, it's almost 6"
"oh.. didn't manong told you that you won't be fetched by him beacause he's mother is in the hospital?"
"ohh.. okay... I will just go home by myself"
"ok, bye dear"
"bye mom.. ahhhmm mom!! I-lo" *totoot*
she ended the call "mom i love you" i said softly
I walked until I reached the bus stop.. I waited patiently...Then after 5 minutes a bus stopped in front of me. Sumakay na ako and then umupo sa natitirang vaccant seat sa likod. I sat next on a guy with an earphone stuck in his ears. I think he's sleeping.
I gasped when his head landed on my shoulders.. oh maybe hes too tired.. I just let him sleep.. He's too peaceful to be disturb..
Pero nung malapit na ang bahay ko, nag-alala na ako.. He's still sleeping peacefully.. How can i wake a complete stranger sleeping in my shoulder?
"WEST HILLS VILLAGE!!!" the conducter shouted
I just don't know what to do.. I stood up then ran off the bus
The guy looked startled. When i'm already safe out of the bus, i shouted
"SORRY MISTER! NEXT TIME DON'T JUST SLEEP AT ANYBODY'S SHOULDER"
Then i sprinted inside the house
"MOM-DAD!! im home!!"
"at the kitchen!" i heard my mom's sweet voice
I placed my bag at the sofa. then i hurried to the kitchen, shouting
"MON! I WON AGAIN!"
"god for you dear" she said casually.
i felt a sudden pain at my heart when she reacted just like that but eventually I removed that tought from my head..
"hmmm.. pasta.."
"odeth, go change you clothes.. Dinner is about to serve"
"ok"
inakyat ko ang hagdan papunt sa room ko.. nagpalit ako ng damit, i am now waering my navy lue short and white sleeveless... Pumunta na ako sa dining table then umupo na sa usual seat ko..
"Odeth kindly call your dad, he's in the office"
"ok mom"
I went to he's office which is at the third floor near the library..
i knocked at door
"OPEN!" i heard a deep voice
"Dad, dinner is already served"
"I'm coming odeth.. just wait for me there"
I went back to the dining table and mom is already eating a plate of pasta.
After 5 minutes, dad joined us...
While i am busy chewing my pasta, dad faked a cough
"ehem-ehem"
now our attention is on him..
"Odeth,,,"
"yes dad?" i said waiting for him to say something
"Odeth, your mom and i decided to enroll you in a Musical School"
muntik na akung mabulunan sa sinabi ni dad..
"Ehem-ehem.. " i cleared my throat
"but dad why? Im already doing great in Delta Academy"
"We realized that your talent in playing the piano should be enhanced.. And you will also join the 35th International Recital Contest"
"But mom dad..."
"no buts odeth!" dad cut me off
"ok. but what about my swimming?"
"odeth at first we already told you to quit swimming. You already know that were not favor of it"
"Ok" i said with frustration.. im defeated again...
When things go like this, I cant anymore argue with my parents.
After that discussion, no one said a single word..
When we finished eating, i hurriedly ran to my rome. As my body hit my soft bed, my tears also started to fall. All i can do was to cry when im frustrated..
After hours of crying, my eyelids began to feel heavy..
'Maybe i need a rest'
then all i can see was darknest..
I feel asleep..
