I have questions (chapter 3)

          Jho was sitting on the 3rd row of the bus listening to Your Song sang by the one and only Parokya ni Edgar, oh how she loves to hum along the song every time she closes her eyes and imagine random scenarios of herself through random places.

          Like the first scene she had; It was valentines day when she received a piece of letter, unfortunately she had to read it on her hospital bed instead of being with the one she love. But still, it doesn't stop her from smiling and thanking her love for being patient with her.

          She quickly brought her hand up to cover her mouth, Muntik na kong sumigaw sa kilig jusme She thought closing her eyes for a moment because na- imagine na naman niya. Hay ano kaya feeling nun non? Handwritten letters are the best talaga

                     I take one step away,

                    And I find myself coming back to you.

                    My one and only,

                    One and only you.

          Pocha ayoko na talaga She thought, but when she had the idea. She fished her bag and took her journal out, Jho carries her journal every time. She thought that instead of capturing moments with your phone, why not try something that would make you remember the moment you are in, in the most memorable way?

          At first she had thought that ang corny and clichè, that only such things happened on movies or novelas. But man no one's stopping Jho from thinking that the most treasure moments were the ones that where not captured.

          Kaya on the next day she bought herself a journal and who is Jhoana when there's no sunflower in it? So when as she saw the bright yellow cover notebook her hands quickly grabbed it, holding it dearly so that no one might able to steal it away from her.

          Journal #14
     
                    I lay down tired on my bed, well on my hospital bed to be exact. The nurse just left after taking some blood out of me, for samples daw bes. But after the short pain I've felt, you finally entered. And damn what pain what is it again? I forgot what it felt when I saw you. You wore your smile that captured me. You began to walk towards me, but your smile faded, it was replaced by worry and sadness. I feel sorry, I'm sorry.  And before you sat down you placed a kiss on my forehead, whispering you got me at all times. Then, you sat down and I noticed that you had a piece of paper taped on your forehead. Bilis mo don cutie. But you said I have to read it when you are not around, para ma- miss kita sabi mo. Kainis just wait when I fully recover, more adventures na naman with you.

          Jho lift her head up smiling as she closed her journal and put it back in her bag, glancing outside the window she gasped in shock when she saw a white car being drive by a maniac who she thought had that such of a recklessness and money. Sa totoo lang pwede na yun ma- pull over at anytime because here at Katipunan Avenue 40-kph speed limit is on call, but the crazy driver put siguro mga 70 or a 100.

          But at so suddenly nainis siya. "Kainis coding kase ng kotse ko ngayon eh, tuloy commute ending ko". She spoke annoyed as she run her hand through her hair.

          She rest her head on the bus's window when suddenly the TV's news report caught her attention. Well she knew she hates the news so much because mostly their reports were about it's whether to start up a new rumor or hot issues, but what annoys her even more is when they report the privacy of someone, especially when it comes to the international superstars.
