I opened my eyes when I felt someone kiss my forehead, it was Mama Ysabelle.
I smiled at her.
"Good morning, 'nak."
"Good morning, 'ma, I'll actually kiss you right now but I have yet to brush my teeth."
"It's okay, love."
She left my room and I proceeded to brush my teeth, pagkatapos ay agad din akong pumunta sa kusina para kumain ng almusal.
I kissed Mama Ysabelle's cheek, she was busy setting up the plates.
"Anong niluto mo, 'ma?"
"Pancakes tsaka scrambled eggs, go a head and eat."
I proceeded to eat, Mama Ysabelle's cooking skills never cease to amaze me.
"It's a saturday, wala kayong pasok, hindi ba?"
"Opo, 'ma."
"Why don't--uhm, why don't we go and visit your mom?"
She meant, her grave, my mom is dead. I never really got to know her, Mama Ysabelle just told me that she died giving birth to me.
Which honestly makes me feel like I should not be alive in the first place, she still should have been able to live if it weren't for me.
"Okay," tipid kong sagot sa kanya.
"Take a bath and wear something comfortable, okay?"
I just nodded and forced a smile.

I decided to wear an oversized v-neck shirt and a high-waisted black pants and some slippers.
It's a bit cold outside. But not too cold.
I also put my hair up in a messy bun.
As soon as we're both done, we made our way towards the flower shop nearby.
Iilan lang ang mga taong nasa labas, it was too early in the morning after all, it was actually very peaceful. I kind of like the whole vibe of it.
When we entered the flower shop, different types of scent slapped my face all at once.
To be specific: scent of flowers.
I never really liked flowers. But, I can tolerate the plastic one's.
Flowers are fragrant indeed, but after a short period of time, they wilt and they die, and they're too fragile. And I-- I just don't know how I feel about them.
Maybe I just simply do not like the thought of them dying, and the inevitability of it happening.
And yes, I'm not only talking about flowers this time.
