ANLEY'S

WE'VE been like a strangers towards each other and just too civil for the past few days. Ni hindi man lang sya nagbubukas ng usapan kahit kami lang dalawa ang tao dito sa bahay neither the things about his scars.

I keep myself busy while he did his. Nasa loob ako habang sya nasa labas naman namamalagi. We seldomly eat together. Ako parati yung nauunang kumakain tapos sya. But I need to have a talk with him. Dan sent off my daughters sa bahay ni Reux which I didn't asked him to do it at ni hindi ko alam kung paano nya nalaman ang bahay nito.

I look at my wristwatch. It's already eleven and fifteen. Tumayo ako mula sa kinauupuan ko at lumabas at nakapaa lang talaga ako. I didn't wear any footwear kahit tsinelas man lang. Mas okay sa akin na nakapaa lalo na at wala ang tatlo but if they are here nagsusuot ako. I was at the underground which I considered my basement. Nasa may working room ako. I am inactive in FD as Tigress but being a businesswoman I am always been active at mas focus muna ako sa resorts at winery ngayon. Umakyat ako pabalik sa taas then I close the basement passage then dumiretso ako ng kusina pero may nauna na pala sa akin.

He's the one cooking our food for lunch. At home na at home sya sa kanyang ginagawa. Napangiti na lang ako sa magandang tanawin while I am here sa may bungad ng kusina. I stay for a few minutes saka ako tumalikod at pinabayaan na lang sya at ayaw ko naman syang disturbuhin.

Nagtungo ako ng kwarto ko at kinuha ko yung gitara na nakasabit sa may dingding. I took it out from the guitar bag tapos initsa ko lang ito sa may kama at lumabas agad. I headed myself to the balcony at naupo. I strum my guitar until I made some tune.

I'm wide awake in a dream
You won't let me fall asleep
'Cause I smell your skin on my pillow

I see your face in the dark
Falling like a shooting star
I wish for you out my window

I still feel you lying here with me
I still hear the sound of your heartbeat

Nothing left to say now
Every word is worn out
You and I are almost gone
Fading like a broken song
And If I really listen
I hear you in the distance
Baby all we got left of us
Are echoes of love
Echoes of love

I was thinking the past years that I have spent with him. He was really indeed my first love. He is always been my protector and bestfriend.

Picture perfect memories
On my walls hunting me
I see your smile and I break down

Feel you far away so close
I'm holding on but you let go
You let go

The smiles, the laughters and wonderful moments with him was indeed the best memories but on the day of our graduation he just left and he didn't called me or even left something. I was expecting that the very next day he will contact me but he didn't until years had passed.

Nothing left to say now
Every word is worn out
You and I are almost gone
Fading like a broken song
And If I really listen
I hear you in the distance
Baby all we got left of us
Are echoes of love
Echoes of love

They go on and on and on and on
They go on and on and on and on

When we met each other he was still indeed the man that I love and I was keeping my distance towards him because I was hurt but my heart is keeping him still inside for years kahit na iba ang ipinakakita ko sa kanya at pinaparamdam.
