5.00 a.m pa lang gising na ko, hindi ko na hinintay na mag-alarm 'yung clock ko. I didn't even know kung nakatulog ba talaga 'ko. My face felt hot, I looked into the mirror and stared at my face for a moment.

"Gosh! Rieanne Jeung, you're such a mess. Grabe 'yung dark circles mo. As if hindi ka natulog for a week." I whispered to myself.

What was I doing last night? No, more like, what was I thinking last night? I feel sick.

I immediately took a bath, the fixed myself. I applied a minimum amount of makeup just to cover up my tired looking face.

"well, I think this is enough." I softly said.

I was sitting in front of my mirror for a few minutes, I was spacing out. Hindi ko alam kung ano ba talaga ang nangyayari sakin.

I didn't even notice na 6:00 a.m na pala.

Knock! Knock!

Naririnig kong may kumakatok sa door ko pero hindi koi to pinapansin until someone called me...

"Anne, nakahanda na 'yung agahan, bilisan mo, baka malate ka" she said.

It was my mama, bumalik na ulit ako sa katinuan.

"sige po ma, bababa na po 'ko niyan" I said,

For the last second, I checked myself on the mirror again.

"Okay, this is enough. Time to go." I said,

I tried to act normal and energetic.

Pagkababa ko, nakita ko agad 'yung toasted bread sa mesa and inamoy-amoy ko ito, kunyari gutom na gutom ako. Ganun din 'yung ginawa ko sa sliced apples and hotdog na nakahain sa lamesa. Hindi ko napansin 'yung gatas kaya inamoy ko din ito pero napalakas ata 'yung singhot ko. May konting gatas na pumasok sa ilong ko.

"urgh!" I groaned,

Lumabas agad si mama sa kitchen para tignan ako. Nakita niya kong mejo namimilipit sa sakit.

"Anung nangyari Anne?" She asked

"'yung gatas" I just said habang tinuturo 'yung gatas at the same time covering my nose.

Ang sakit! 'yung feeling na parang dumiretso agad sa utak ko 'yung liquid. Katangahan 101. -.-

"ano?! Anong 'yung gatas?!" Tarantang tanong ni mama.

I gave my mama a stop hand sign, pinahupa ko muna 'yung sakit.

"okay na ko ma" sabi ko sa kanya habang naluluha

"anu bang nangyari?" tanong niya habang tinatapik 'yung likuran ko.

"nasinghut ko 'yung gatas" hiyang sabi ko kay mama.

As expected, mama laughed at me

"anu bang ginagawa mo't sinisinghut mo 'yang gatas?" tanong niya

Maging ako 'di ko alam kung bakit ko ginawa 'yun, 'di ko napansin eh.

I just looked at her with a blank expression.

"Oh siya, maupo kana diyan at kumain kana, baka malate ka" sabi ni mama sa 'kin while smiling.

While eating, we talked about lots of things related to my studies.

"Sasabay ba ang kuya mo sa'yo mamaya?" she asked me,

"Siguro ma, magkikita naman siguro kami sa school." I answered

After drinking my milk, tumayo na 'ko at nagpaalam kay mama.
