It is a sunny day today and everything seems fine. The brown dog that's roaming around the area... The Mango trees along the road... The old man spreading rumors about a Call center agent living in the first street to the right... The highschool student riding a tricycle, rushing, oh well he must be late... Crap! So is her.

She's having another "yesterday-in-the-making".

Too bad.
She's not having it as colorful as the others.

Sun rays kissing her tanned skin, warm breeze letting her hair flow nice over her shoulders.

Crowd noise, loud vehicle horns and heavy stomps of feet. Nothing special. Just another plain day. Always.

She was hoping a better day but it wasn't granted.

"Wala na bang bago?"

And yes, she's a filipina.

Soon, her today will be gone as a memory of yesterday. Another day of losing it. She missed again.

"Sayang"

It was supposed to be a great day but indeed, a day is once an is and forever a was.

Araw-araw na lang.

Paulit ulit na lang.

Kahit pa yata malakas ang guardian angel niya sa likod hindi na nito mababago na sirang-sira na ang puso niya.

Pamilya.

Pa-milya ang distansya...

Pa-milya ang layo...

Wala na talagang bago.
