The Long Lost Princess

Part 1

Looking at the stars feeling the breeze of the air gave me goose bumps. Everything feels totally wrong it's like my mind is going to explode.

Overthinking sucks.

No one really understand me that's why I don't talk about it to anyone not really wanting them to care. I used to talk about it to my mom but she woudn't understand. Para saan pa ang pag eexplain ko kung hindi rin naman nila maiintindihan.

I used to be happy when it was really all easy and fragile. When I was a kid. Growing up without a father really change my life. It cause my mother to work from a different country leaving me and my siblings behind.

I used to be so emotional back then when she would leave the country after 2 months of vacating. But looking back now, everything change.

I became a heartless bitch who wouldn't care about anyone and anything around me. I don't fall too easily and I only care about myself which is I know somehow selfish as fuck. But I don't care, depression made me like this.

I would always spaced out from my own thoughts and everyone thinks na masungit ako because of my resting bitch face. Tulala lagi akong tahimik not caring about my bestfriend Marianie tells me. Who cares anyway? She always talk about the guy she likes that she always deny that she had a crush on. I mean what the fuck? That doesn't make sense. Call me bitch if you want but who's the bitch now after calling me bitch?

I only got like two or three bestfriends hindi ako sure sa isa, not wanting to talk about her because she always care about what she thinks like me.

Anyways, enough of the crap.

My name is Riley Phoebe I'm 18 years old, I grew up in hand of my grandmother since when I was 8, My mom and dad got divorce after my mom find a job and fly to Dubai. Let's just say that my dad is somehow a chick magnet and that cause to make my mom  break up with him how pathetic right? He is not my ideal dad but oh well baliktarin man natin ang mundo sya pa rin ang dad ko. Whatever. My mom is a really great and a superhero mom. I always look up to her and she did a great job on raising us despite that she had to work in a different country. Pinalaki nya kaming magkapatid ng may takot sa Diyos at hindi nya kami pinabayaan kahit na siya nalang ang bumubuhay saamin, not like the other mom's out there na nag lalasing at nagiinom.

Because of the heart break when she found out that my dad is cheating on her nagpakatatag sya at ginawa nya kaming inspirasyon na mga anak nya at hindi sumuko kahit napaka hirap ng trabaho sa ibang bansa. No one can make my heart melt like my mom kahit na pasaway at tamad ako na bata ay pinagtitiisan nya pa rin ako.

I can only be nice to my mom.

I have only one sibling which is Jake. We are really close to each other and sometimes we fight. But after all we still love each other. I mean what siblings are for kung hindi kayo nag papatawaran it's like planting an ugly fruit into your heart, that's why you need to dig it and throw it away para hindi na lumago.

I like drawing stuff kaya architecture ang kukunin ko pero pinag iisipan ko rin na mag aral ng law dahil I always wanted to become a professionalist. Not only a professionalist but I want to fight what is right, gusto kong ipagtanggol kung ano ang tama sa mali at para maipakulong ang mga walang hiyang masasamang tao.

I also like basketball, me and my friend would always play basketball last summer despite that that dream just died but I want to revive it, kaya naman I try out nung naghanap si Sir Nolly ng mga player girls neto lang last monday. Luckily, onti lang kaming umattend kaya ipinasok nya na kaming lahat.

Training was really tiring and exhausting my body's in pain after the long torture obstacles.

I'm not rich neither poor, just in between. I can buy whatever I want, I eat three times a day, I have a shelter to sleep, and I study in a private school what can I ask for? That's a blessing can I get an amen?

I'm a really private person so if I tell you my secret, you must be really lucky. I tend to think a lot, they say thinkers like me have the highest IQ but I doubt it. Being smart sucks you can't enjoy what you want when you all have are some unwanted facts. Trust me you'd be in tears if you know what's going on in my mind.

Love. I'm not really familiar with that word. They always ask me if who I like and I would always say "none" I mean what's the point of love if you are just hurting? I watch romantic movies and read a dozens of books which is related to love but they would always end up hurting. I never finish the book kase I know na mag higiwalay rin naman sila sa dulo. Love is disgusting and corny.

I will never fall in love.

And at the thought of that I went up straight on my bed and jump right into it and study for tomorrow, minutes after I fell asleep and think "what if I fall inlove?"

Meh.
