Shiela's pov

It's been a month huh?

Sigh... pumunta ako sa libing nila mama last month pero nakahood ako at nagtatago. I don't want anybody to see me. Especially those two.

It was also my birthday nang makipaghiwalay ako dun kay Nicolai at nang malaman ko na may relasyon sila ni Ate at oo! Mom and dad died on the same day as my birthday.

2 years older pala si ate Kristine saakin. But I don't care!

I've been working really hard these past few weeks or month. Trabaho dito, trabaho duon. Sermon dito, sermon duon. Mahirap magtrabaho, lalo't 17 pa lang ako, at nag-aaral.

I transferred sa isang school na malapit sa purple village. Maganda naman yung school pero, ang daming chismosa. Kung ano ano ang sinasabi nila about saakin. Some say, I am a nerd although I don't really look like one.

Pag nasa bahay naman ako, kinukuha ko ang gitara ko at kumakanta. Oh how I missed singing with dad!

Nga pala, naalala ko! May bagong kapitbahay ako at balita ko eh celebrity. Pero wala akong pakealam!

Sumilip ako ng konti sa bintana. Ang bintana sa second floor ng bahay ng katapat ko ay gawa sa salamin, kaya kitang-kita ko ang mga galaw niya. May kausap siya sa cellphone niya. Pumunta din siya sa balcony.

Wala akong pake sakanya! but I'll be honest. He is handsome. He's tall, he has a perfect skin tone, a perfect aura, a perfect look, a messy black hair but it looks cool. And he has this perfect pinkish lips, and it looks like his lips are soft and kissab------wait! Ano na ba tong iniisip ko?!

Geez! What a perverted mind!

Tiningnan ko siya habang may kinakausap sa telepono at nakasandal sa railings ng balcony.

"Ayokong may kapitbahay kaya kung pwede lang papalayasin kita. Pero if you'll just mind your own business, then it'll be fine" sabi ko habang nakatingin sakanya.

I closed my window at saka dumiretso sa higaan. Kinuha ko ang gitara at nagpatugtog. Sinabayan ko na din ito ng kanta.

~Back when I was a child
Before life removed all the innocence
My father would lift me high
And dance with my mother and me and then
Spin me around till I fell asleep
Then up the stairs he would carry me
And I knew for sure I was loved~

All the mem'ries from the past are flashing back one by one.

~If I could get another chance
Another walk, another dance with him
I'd play a song that would never ever end
How I'd love love love, to dance with my father again~

/"yes sir. Section A po sir ang room niyo tomorrow dito sa angel high"/

"Okay, thank you" at Ibinaba ko na ang tawag.

~If I could get another chance
Another walk, another dance with him
I'd play a song that would never ever end
How I'd love love love, to dance with my father again~

*sob* *sob*

Huh? Kumakanta siya tapos bigla na lang umiyak?

Naandito ako sa balcony ng second floor. Halos kaharap ko na nga ang kwarto nung babaeng yun. Tiningnan ko lang ang kabuoan ng bahay.
