Day 000

I woke up in my room, feelling dizzy. The room was dark, quiet, dull. Well, wala namamg nag-iba . I was about to go outside when I heard some screams outside my boring bedroom.

"Can't you see I'm busy?!"
"Oh, your'e always busy!"
"SO WHAT?!"
"Nakalimutan mo na ba na may asawa't anak ka?! Huh?!"
"OH shut up!"
"That's it I'm leaving!"
"Walang pumipigil sayo!"
"I am not coming back!"

I feel so sad, yet I can't feel any tears falling. Baka dahil sanay na ako. Yeah. Maybe I'm already numb. Okay lang naman sakin yun eh. I'm tired of crying!

Repeating over and over again, feels like its already a routine. I smiled bitterly. They always fight about my dad being a mad scientist. He' so passionate with his work, na nakalimutan na niyang may pamilya siya.. He's always in his room working about something I don't know. Well, I dont want to know.

However, I still love them. I don't know, maybe because they're all I have.

I heard footsteps heading to my room.Mabilis akong nagtago sa aking kumot, pretending to sleep.

Bumukas ang pinto."Sweetie, I'll be leaving for two days I'll be back." Yes, sinasabi niyang di na siya babalik, pero after ng ilang araw dito parin ang bagsak niya.

Pagkatapos niyang umalis, mabilis akong lumabas. I had the quickest meal and the quickest bath. Now I'm left with nothing to do. Pabalik na ako sa kwarto nang biglang bumukas ang pinto .He closed the door quickly, head to the front door wthout even looking at me. Weird. Maybe all the scientist are weird?

I went to my bedroom and noticed a note with a crescent shaped necklace in my desk.

To My Dearest Luna,

I may not be the best father to you, but please remember that I will always love you. This may be my last day in this world . Please be careful -DAD

Huh? Joke lang naman to diba? Uso naba sa mga scientists yung mang-prank? Pwede naman yun diba? Di ko namalayang umiiyak na pala ako.

I should've hugged him for the last time! Ughhhh this is so frustrating!! I wiped my tears.I wore the necklace slowly. I turned on the T.V para makawala sa boredom.

'This is Nellie Smith reporting. A huge red moon is slowly making its way in the clouds. Please hide inside yout house for your safety. It's still unknown. But it might cause distruction. Again, this is Nellie Smith reporti--'

BAAAANGGGG!

A huge light came out from the windows. Then it blowed hard! I felt the heat on my face. The explotion. The fire. The heat.

Is this the END?

For a second, I thought the necklace glowed.

Then it all turned black.
