Stephanie
One Year Before Agatha's Death
Right now, I'm in a state of mind,
I wanna be in like all the time
Ain't got no tears left to cry.
I lay on my cream pink bed while still on my pink pajamas with faces of Hello Kitty on it. I heaved a sigh as I frown while staring at the flat screen TV on my room. I am watching F.R.I.E.N.D.S. on Netflix while listening to my favorite Ariana Grande song.
Pero kahit na ano pang tuon ang gawin ko sa panonood sa television at pakikinig ng kanta, hindi pa rin noon maalis ang pagkabored ko.
Nakakainis!
Why is life so boring?
I mean, yes, I already have all of the things that I want but why do I feel like there is still something missing on me? Like, a part of me is empty and it affects my whole system.
I don't know pero minsan, nalulungkot na lang ako sa hindi maipaliwanag na dahilan. 'Yung tipong parang laging may kulang pero hindi mo naman mapinpoint kung saang banda 'yung kulang?
So I'm pickin' it up, pickin' it up
I'm lovin', I'm livin', I'm pickin' it up
I'm pickin' it up, pickin' it up
I'm lovin', I'm livin', I'm pickin' it up.
I let out an irritated sigh. Napapairap akong in-off ang television pati ang Spotify sa aking cell phone.
Okay, wala ako talaga ako sa mood. Time for shopping! Mabilis kong kinuhang muli ang aking cell phone at agad na nagtungo sa iMessage.
Hmm, sino kaya ang yayayain ko?
Eris, Merlion or Avril?
Nuh! Nagsasawa na ako sa mga mukha nila. I continued to scroll down to my contacts.
Oh! Si Vanessa na lang kaya?
Yes! OMG, si Vanessa na lang! Almost one year na rin yata kaming hindi nagbabonding ever since-- I rolled my eyes. "Ever since sinira ni Agatha ang squad namin." I huff as I type my message to Vanessa.
You
Hello, Van! Samahan mo naman akong mag-shopping today.
Io-off ko na sana ang cell phone nang bigla itong mag-vibrate. Vanessa replies quickly! Wala pa ring pinagbago si girl.
Vanessa
I'm studying right now, Steph.
I frown like a kid while reading her reply.
You
It's been a year already since nag-bonding tayong dalawa. My treat!
You
Please!
Vanessa
Steph naman, eh.
You
Pleaaaase, pleaaaaaase.
Vanessa
I really can't, Steph.
You
Sige na, please?
Vanessa
Typing...
You
Promise, sandali lang tayo!
Vanessa
Seryoso ba 'yan? Baka ilang oras na naman 'yan, ah?
You
Yes, I promise! Meet me at our favorite restaurant at 10 AM. Thank you Van, luv u!
