I am supposed to live like a princess pero maaga akong naulila. My parents failed to thier promises and i failed to be a daughter. For three years living without even friends or a relatives, I survived as a person but not an ideal woman that my parents want it to be.
I hide myself to the people so they can't hurt me. I lived my life like I'm the only survivor. I just want to be happy but the more I crave for it the more I couldn't reach it.
But there's one thing that I really curious about.
The sticker note hanging above outside of my door plus a cartoon of milk placed on the floor.
Every morning may nakukuha akong sticker at milk doon. I don't know where that things came from basta kinukuha ko lang iyon at pinag titipon ko at sinasabit muli sa loob ng aking pinto.
Nakasanayan ko na gawin ang pagkuha ng sticker note and milk every morning. I did it in three years until now but the thing is, di ko alam kong sino, di ko rin mahuli huli kahit gumising pa ako ng maaga. So, I let it be. Nakakapag tipid pa ako. After my breakfast I went straight to my work. Dito lang ako nagtratrabaho sa loob ng aking kwarto gamit ang computer ko.
I am a writer of novel, self motivation books or any books as long as kaya kong isulat. Marami-rami narin akong napu-published at marami naring bumibili. Ito yong trabaho na pinag kikitaan ko sa loob ng tatlong taon when I decided to live here. I chose this kind of work because no need for me to go out na or go to the office every morning and went home after. I chose to do this because I don't want people criticize against me or get bully again. This is the least thing I could do to save myself from people.
That moment when I met that girl, I get annoyed. I don't know why pero parang nahahanginan ako sa kanya.
"Who are you?" She asked pointed her eyes on me. Creased on her forehead was the evident that she's mad why I'm here at their building. I cleared my throat.
" Sorry." I apologized.
"Why are you here?" She asked again.
I blink my eyes to think what should I tell her. Finding an acceptable reason to save myself.
"I saw... yo..u..r...um.. the dog under the table." I was in a doubt between 'your' or 'the' cause I was just thinking maybe she's not the owner of the dog so I settled with 'the' since I just saw her.
"I got him away from the heater. You don't need to worry." She directly said to me.
Oh! Paano niya alam na yun ang tinutikoy ko? Is she a fortune teller? Funny.
I saw her face went down from my head to my feet and then she chuckled. Magka iba pala ang nasuot ko. I cover my mouth using my palm and I can see her annoying reaction. She's laughing secretly. I click my tongue and walked away.
This is my first time to went outside in three months.
Finally!
I was walking my way going back to my room when I saw someone staring my door. I stop for a moment. Hmm she's not familiar to me.
I cleared my throat once again made sure that she would hear it. She turned her body to my direction and she was in rattled when she realized that it was me.
She smiled and walked shyly towards me. When she was about to pass over I went down my head to show my respect and took my way out to my room.
Bago ako pumasok I took a glimpse of her.
She's my neighbor. Her room was next to mine and I just realized it now.
Hapon na pero di pa ako tapos sa aking ginagawa. I took some glances of my window, nagbabasakaling makita ko ulit yong babae. Pero di ko na ulit siya makita.
I tried once again and finally I saw her. She was talking to her phone and it looks like she's arguing someone. I can't see her clearly so I took my telescope. I pointed the other side to her direction and there she is...she's now hugging someone.
I put down the telescope. I took the curtains back to their form and went straight to my kitchen. I cooked my favorite foods since the weather is cold I have decided to cook sinigang.
After I ate I took my rest.
