"This is our home
She gives us home
Mother Earth
Can you feel
Her heartbeat
Beneath your feet"

"Here come and eat this." I leaned towards him atsaka kinuha ang prutas sakaniyang kamay. Ngayon ay hawak hawak ko na ang pusang muntikan na niyang kaninan. The cat sits comfortably in lap pagkatapos kong kinuha ang prutas kay kalmin.
I observed the place. I look above but all I can was darkness. No stars and moon. No, infrastructures. Calming. Ito 'yung tipong paligid na kailangan mong may dalang kamera palagi. Every where I look is aesthetically pleasing kahit na gabi. The heat of the fire Kalmin made was very comfortable. The smell of fresh air. It feels like I am in heaven but nyeh. I don't deserve to go there, after what I did last last night. I want to murder myself with negative thoughts but I choose to focus on my surroundings. Actually, ngayon ko lang na appreciate ang kagandahan ng gubat, hindi lang pala gubat kundi pati na rin ang mundo. I thought I am never going to experience this life. This peaceful life.
"You don't like the fruits? I am really sorry. Since human came to this world we have to share everything with them." Napabalikwas ako sa sinabi niya. Iniisip ko na lamang na kapag sasabihin kong ako'y isang tao, baka papatayin niya ako. I am suicidal but I am also afraid that this beast will eat me. I don't want to die that way.
"I don't really understand you, Kalmin. Pwede mo bang sabihin saakin kung ano nangyari?" I still continue to eat this apple he gave to me while Salem was sleeping on my lap. Yes, I named this cutie cat Salem. It is based from my favorite show. Ha, I miss television and my family.
"You can call me Kalm. You know, humans are the most wicked creature in this entire planet. They only have three things in mind and that is to kill, steal and to destroy. They are the embodiment of hell. They would haunt the animals at day and feast it by night. Heartless." He said and there's a hint of anger in his voice. If he's given a chance to kill some human, he'd probably do it with no doubt. I remained silent because I am scared. Scared for my life. What if he's going to find out that I am one of the human? I shut my mouth and just stared at him. Hoping to continue his story.
"Humans came from a goddess named Terra Matter. She created them to take care of the earth but humans evolve day by day. It was her biggest mistake. They killed the goddess with the help of a another goddess named Gehenna. Gehenna is the goddess of death. The Humans sacrificed all their newborn child to Gehenna, in order to kill Terra. Yes, The Humans won." He paused and sighed. Tears rushing from his eyes. I don't know what to feel. I sympathize but I want to argue. I don't know all of this stuff. All I know is christianity and this is not from that religion.
