I typed in the dating app, I was hesistant, conscious about my body, thinking about what other would say about my figure. And afraid that someone might judge me by my character. But I had to do it.

"post it!" Amilia said.

Amilia:
her annoying lovely younger sister.

flashback

Nasa bahay kami ng lola namin, may gathering kasing nangyayari. Our parents are currently talking about somethings and we were told to stay in one room.

I wanted to stay with my parents to avoid my cousins, but I had no choice but to follow my parents, I'm currently drawing one of my characters in my manga.

matatapos na ako sa sketch ko nang bigla akong mabunggo ng isa kong pinsan. I was super annoyed, matatapos na ko e, ngayon kailangan ko ayusin ulit ang sketch ko. I did not mind my cousins, they're asking for forgiveness but I just motioned them to go away.

to calm down and to get in the mood, sinaksak ko sa tenga ko ang headset ko and played fireflies by owl city

You would not believe your eyes
If ten million fireflies
Lit up the world as I fell asleep

'Cause they'd fill the open air
And leave teardrops everywhere
You'd think me rude, but I would just stand and stare

I found a good spot and went there, I'm currently facing the window with a beautiful scenery, I could see the field, that's were she played when I was young, and careless

I'd like to make myself believe
That planet Earth turns slowly
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep
'Cause everything is never as it seems

'Cause I'd get a thousand hugs
From ten thousand lightning bugs
As they try to teach me how to dance

A fox-trot above my head
A sock-hop beneath my bed
A disco ball is just hanging by a thread

I'd like to make myself believe
That planet Earth turns slowly
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep
'Cause everything is never--

pinatay ko yung tugtog, dahil may nararamdaman akong kumakalabit sa likod ko, patingin palang sya ng biglang mahablot ang sketch pad ko.

"HAHAHAHA look ate, your sketch pad is mine muna kasi we'll play munaa" Amilia said

" I don't want to, I'm busy can't you see?" I irritatedly said

" then tatago ko muna sketch pad ate ha?" sabi ni Amilia

"you can't, may tinatapos pa ko" I calmly said, but deep inside gusto ko nang hablutin ang sketch pad ko, kaso baka biglang umiyak at ako p ang mapapagalitan ng parents namin

"please? promise we won't bother you na after this" Amilia said with those puppy eyes, along with our cousins

I just rolled my eyes and said "fine"

"ok, eto ang rules, bla bla bla cho choo etche etche" di na ako nakinig dahil gusto ko lang ay makuha ang sketch pad ko.

"ok let's start" my cousin said

we're currently playing truth or dare

medyo matagal tagal na rin ng huli akong nakapag laro kaya pumayag na rin ako, more than 5 rounds na rin at nag eenjoy na rin ako

"sino na?" my cousin asked

"ako? ako nalang" Amilia said

she rolled the bottle, and everyone was waiting for it to stop. The bottle pointed at me

"truth or dare?" they asked her in chorus

"truth" I said

" how much do you earn every month?" my cousin asked

I was shocked, anong klaseng tanong yan?
8 years old palang sya pero kung ano ano nang iniisip nya, and dahil wala akong balak sabihin sa kanya,  I said "dare na nga lang"

they all grinned

"make a dating account"

I... I was shocked. As in shocked, WHAT?! bakit nung 8 years old ako puro barbie lang hanap ko, tas ngayon.... Hindi ko alam kung isip bata lang ba talaga ako o advance talaga mag isip mga bata ngayon. I was frustrated...

but that idea was not bad. After all nagpaplano na rin nan akong gumawa non pero na co conscious kasi ako sa katawan ko, never pa ko nag reveal ng mukha ko in public. hmmm maybe nagreveal na ko pero before yon, ngayong may career na ko, mahirap na baka dumugin ako ng mga tao, charr HAHAHAHA

in the end ako den ang sumuko

end of flashback

more than 1 hour na rin since nung gumawa ako ng acc, I was about to delete it pero may nakita akong match

"it's a match! with Cayden Mercadejas!"
