Pagkagising ko ay pinaghanda na naman ako ng madaming pagkain. Akala mo everyday may fiesta dito sa bahay nila eh. Mukhang tataba ako lalo kapag nagtagal ako sa bahay nila kahit karamihan ng food nila maanghang.
"Good morning Brianna. Any plans for today?" She asked while placing lot of foods in my plate. Mukhang balak niya talaga akong patabain ng sobra. Noooo! Hindi ako pwedeng maging mataba dahil baka hindi na ako mapansin ni Baekhyun. "Gusto mo ba na ihatid o samahan na kaya kita sa pupuntahan mo ngayon? Baka kasi maligaw ka."
"Aniyo."
Aniyo means no. I said it while shaking my head.
Oh diba? Dami ko nang alam na Korean words.
"Okay na po ako Tita. I want to experience Korea all by myself. Plus, gusto ko po na sumakay ng train at bus."
"You are a fearless and independent girl, Brianna. It's good for you."
Nabuhay ata ang swiftie feels ko nang marinig ko ang fearless word na iyon.
And yah, I am brave. I am fearless.
Nagbow ulit ako sa kanya. "Kamsahamnida, Tita."
Nagpaalam na ako kay Tita Ely. She gave me the small map and emergency contact numbers of Korea. Very prepared, huh.
Sumakay lang ako sa train at bus papuntang Namsan Tower; one of Seoul's famous tourist attractions. Meron din love locks sa Namsan tower just like in Paris and of course di ko papalagpasin iyon. I will put Baekhyun's name together with mine in the padlock, para maging forever na kami. Oops! Wala palang forever.
Habang naglilibot ako sa Namsan Tower ay natutulala talaga ako sa mga Koreans na nakakasalubong ko. Sobrang kinis talaga nila, sobrang nahiya ang skin ko sa kanila. I wish I have theirs. Baka mapansin pa agad ako ni Baekhyun.
Korean people, how to be you po? Baekhyun, how to be yours po?
But of course, I am happy and satisfied with the color of my skin. If I know ay sawa na din si Baekhyun sa mga mapuputing babae kaya I will stand out when I am in crowd. There is a 0.001% that he'll be able to notice me.
Go Brianna, make yourself believe na mangyayari yan.
Eh? Libre naman mangarap eh. Pangarap na nga lang ipagkakait pa ba?
I take a cable car up to the peak of the mountain para naman makita ko ang magandang tanawin dito. I paid nine thousand Won or kulang four hundred pesos kung icoconvert mo sa Philippine peso, to go up to the top of the tower.
The feeling is really soothing. It offers the opportunity to get one of the best overall views of the city of Seoul, somewhat like Menara KL Tower.
Nagutom naman ako kaya I decided to eat. Naghanap ako ng murang makakain. Muntik pa akong mapakin sa expensive restaurant pero buti nalang I am disciplined enough. I always need to put in my mind thatI need to save. I can't be broke while I'm still here. May pupuntahan pa kaya akong concert.
I bought some hotdogs and potato curls. I have watched this in a TV show in Korea. In fairness ah, mas mura to ng hamak kumpara sa kakainan ko sana but it is delicious too. Kung hindi ko lang napigilan ang sarili ko baka nakawaldas na ako ng libo-libong pera.
Pagkatapos kong mabusog, nagdecide na akong maglibot ulit. Pumunta na ako sa bilihan ng love padlocks. Bumili na ako ng dalawang padlocks at naghanap agad ako ng pwesto kung saan ko siya ilolock. Sa unang padlock, I wrote Baekhyun's name and mine. Sa second padlock naman ay EXO at pangalan ko.
Brianna and Baekhyun Forever ❤
Brianna ❤ EXO
Pinagkasya ko talaga siya sa padlock. If there's a will, there's a way. Kung sana a y may way nga lang din papunta sa dressing room ng EXO ay pinuntahan ko na.
Ugh, dirty thoughts again.
Sobrang worth it at unforgettable ang trip ko sa Namsan. Most of my pictures says it all though puro selfies and scenes lang siya.
And yea, may naachieve nanaman ako. Sumobra pa yung nilaan kong pera para sa trip na ito. Buti nalang ay unti-unti ko nang natututunan ang art of saving.
Maaga akong umuwi dahil ayokong abutin ng hating gabi at isa pa, ayokong mag-alala si Tita sa akin. I'm still not familiar with the places and streets here so I better get home early.
Habang naglalakad ako ay itinext ko si Jennie na tumawag siya sa akin. Medyo madilim na din pero marami namang ilaw na nanggagaling sa posts.
"Bes! I saw your pictures! It seems like your enjoying it! I'm so happy for you!" She said in an excited tone.
"Thank you bes, I wish you were here." Malungkot kong saad.
"Ugh, don't be sad. We'll go back there soon, okay? My treat! Just enjoy your stay there and think of the concert. It is just few days away! Aren't you excited?"
"Of course I am. I'm already thrilled about it. Imaginin mo, makikita kosi Baekhyun at ang EXO. Kyaaahh!" Napasigaw ako pero di ko iyon pinigilan, besides wala naman akong kasabay na naglalakad.
"Well, good for you. I'm sorry but I have to go. I just wanted to talk to you even for short time. I miss you, Brianna. Take care, okay? I love you, bye."
"I love you too. Bye"
Kaya nga she's my bestfriend. She's like a sister to me. Para bang not sisters by blood but sisters by heart. She helps me in everything and she is one of the reason why I am here.
I'm really grateful that I have a best friend like her. She is the medicine for my wounded heart and vitamins for my hopeful soul. She's always there for me. She is one of the people who's happy for my happiness and sad for my sadness. She has a special place in ny heart.
While walking in the streets, I feel like someone is following me. Binilisan ko ang paglakad dahil natatakot na ako. Nang lumingon ako ay nakita kong nakatingin sila sa akin at tsaka sila patakbong sinundan ako. Wala na rin akong nagawa kung hindi tumakbo. Nangingig na ang nga kamay ko at nangangatog na din ang tuhod ko.
While running for my life, I bumped into someone. Uh oh! He is tall with a mask and a cap that's why I can't see his face. "Help me please, help me. There were two people chasing me." I pleaded. Nanginginig ang aking boses.
Nagulat ako nang makitang nasa harapan ko na ang mga lalaking humahabol sa akin. They were about to caught me but a hand from someone took it away from me. The stranger with a mask and cap twist the hand of the one who's chasing me like a pro. He throw it's body like it is just a paper. The stranger is unbelievably strong! The fellow of the bad guy who's following me attacked the stranger but the stranger held his fist and kick him on his back causing him to fall. Wow!
I heard a siren of cops. The stranger took my hand and pulled me somewhere. He mumbled something but I can't understand it. We enter a dark place and he signal a 'shh' sign. The cops passed by and didn't saw us. I look at the guy who saved me.
"Who are you?"
