The Fragile Living in Paradox

Not all people think twice. Not all people THINK.

We all have one thing in common, but all of us is extraordinary person.

Admit it or not were all scared to get old. Physically and mentally...

Am I the only one who thinks about this? Am I overthinking too much? I always change and changed the same. I always smile like my heart has never been broken. Everything goes back to the way it looks before. We, all in this world is always rolling and spinning endlessly. Which is the right one? Which one is the truth? Even right thing becomes wrong. Even truth can tell a lie. This makes no sense for most of the people. People care for themselves... Seeking for selfishness happiness, seeking for love that ain't even call love. People think what they want. People doesnt care unless youre the source of 'needing'.

Thinking is never been selfish! I think because I cared. So as far as my life goes on I'll keep on thinking.

***

What an intro, my name is Kyre Lexan Cucio... 16 years old yes I'm sixteen I just love thinking if you want to know me. I know I'm matured enough, I don't even need school or parental guidance. NO need for that. But still I need to go... for the future I supposed?

Kyre! A sweet voice called my name. I really hated my name. I don't like it to be heard nor to be told. I look backward and I saw the bright smile of my best friend. I really hate her but I didn't have the guts to tell her face to face that I hated her. I just smile back to her.

"Saan ka mag-aaral this coming grade 10?" She said, while running towards my direction and now she's catching her breath. This lil asdfghjkl

"Mag-ingat ka nga! Ayusin mo lakad mo, hindi yun tatakbo ka lang ng bigla pag may nakita kang kakilala mo." I said to her irritatedly. Ang hinahina mo na nga mas pinapalala mo pa. I rolled my eyes not in maarte way. Well rolling eyes means maarte right? Well whatever! Asthmatic kasi siya kaya mabilis lang siyang mapagod, that's the reason why I hated her. Small hatred lol.

"Namiss kaya kita! Dalawang Buwan kang nawala!" Sagot niya at napakamot siya sa ulo niya. Oh, I spent my vacation in my hometown Nueva Ecija. I enjoyed the nights and the days I stayed there. Not here in my current place. Not here in Davao... And remembered something. I hate this place! No, I hate people here! Err. I just don't like this place! Kung pwede lang pumili ng matitirhan... or magulang. I sighed deeply.

"I'll be transferring again." Sagot ko naiirita na nga ako dahil palipat-lipat nalang ako palagi. From Public to Private, Private to Public, vice versa! Kung magsta-stay man ako ng school mas gusto ko sa public. Actually I never disliked school, fun interactions with humans with brainy head. I want to know about how they live.

A moment of silence....

"Whaaaaaaaat?! Diba sawa kanang mag palipat-lipat? Tanung niya, actually I can see it in her eyes na hindi niya gustong umalis ako sa previous school ko, She pretended to look calm and normal."
"It was all my Moms decision not mine." I said to her sarcastically. She slightly bow her head and I can feel her eyes want to pour. I tapped her on her forehead and smiled sweetly to her to bring back her soul."

"Okay, what school?" Saang school ka lilipat? Tanung niya. We start to walk and planned to go in to the nearest cafe.

"Rosales University" I said in despised. She reacts in amazement. And I turned my face side, she longed and dreamed to study there though. Yes it is the most popular and well-known school. But should I be proud? I never dreamed on studying in an expensive and exclusive school. I never dreamed of my own future. Or I was just so tired to plan my future. If only fate can just be reversed, I would love to reverse the fate of my bestfriend's life to mine, and mine to hers. Maybe the one thing that I dreamed and still dreaming about is I've never been a Cucio.

Since dreams is only an imagination, it will never happen.

"Wow, Baka makalimutan mo ako ha! At baka magbago ka, pag may kasama kanang iba! BAKA IPAGPALIT MO AKO!" pahina hanggang palakas niyang sinabi. Napalingon ang mga tao sa table namin I blushed and stopped her because she was freaking out too much."

"Hindi! Ofcourse hindi. I'll still visit. Dont worry it will always be my treat when we meet." I said to her and gave her a big wide warm smile. She smiled in approval and we both ate our snacks. Later on we wave our goodbyes.

Alessia Kaye Samson POV
Nagpaalamna kami sa isa't-isa. Habang naglalakad ay unti-unting nawala ang ngiti ko sa mukha. Nakakita ako ng bench at umupo muna dito bago umuwi, nagmuni-muni. Gusto kong umiyak pero what for? Hindi ko sinasabi na hindi worth it kay Kyre ang luha ko, its just that na wala lang akong mapapala kapag umiyak ako. I shaked my head and looked up to the sky. "dazzling sky of blue" I murmured. pinikit ko mga mata ko para marelax.

"Oy miss" bulong ng lalaki mahina niya lang sinabi. Dinilat ko ang mata ko nakita ko siyang may hawak na ice cream.

"Manhid kaba? Nakuha na ng magnanakaw ang bag mo."Kinapa-kapa ko sa hips ko ang bag ko.

"Waaaaaaaaaah yun bag ko!" Sigaw ko, "hala ang phone ko!" Hinawakan ko ang bulsa ko, napabuntong hininga ako dahil buti na lang nasa isang bulsa ko ang phone ko at nasa isa naman ang wallet ko. Ang problema ay nandun ang card ko. (report card)

"Bakit hindi mo pinigilan! o sinigawan!" Sigaw ko sa kaniya, nakakainis kung saksi siya dapat may ginawa naman siya! Tinawag-tawag ako kung kailang huli na. Saan utak mo? tanung ng mga isip ko.

"Mahuhulog ice cream ko." Sagot niya nainis lalo ako. Hindi ako nagdalawang isip na itapon ang ice cream niya palayo. Tumakbo ako at nag-berat sa kaniya. Nagulat siya sa ginawa ko at nainis siya, ramdam ko ang init ng ulo niya. Narinig ko siyang sumigaw pero hindi ko na ito masyadong narinig dahil tumakbo ako papalayo. Hanggang sa marating ko na ang tahanan namin. Hinahabol ko ang hininga ko, Haa... Haaa.. Haaa.. Ha...

"Nakakapagod" pabulong kong sinabi. Wala pa si Papa at Lola. Kinuha ko na ang nebulizer ko at nagpastart na ng pausok at nakahinga na rin ako ng maayos. At nakatulog.
