Fall "Who wouldn't fall for you?"

FOUR

I focus on my studies. Hindi ako katulad nila Hershey at Liezl na walang inaalagaang scholarship. To be honest, I'm tired. Napapagod din ako. Pero walang pagod-pagod sa taong gustong makapagtapos ng pagaaral.

I'm alone in our dorm.

Liezl move out to their house. May problema sa companya nila. Hershey did the same. Tita is sick, nasa ibang bansa si tito para sa isang seminar for their company. She will stay there for about two to three months.

Nagkikita parin naman kami sa school kaso nga lang hindi na muna sila umuuwi sa dorm. Still the same, just with a little changes.

"Salamat po!" I smile at the vendor. Kinuha ko na yung isaw ko.

I'm in Mang Larry's Isawan. Parang gusto ko din ng siomai kaso tinatamad na akong maglakad. Okay na 'to.

I'm now walking around while eating. My classes are already done. Ayoko munang umuwi, magisa lang ako sa dorm. Hershey and Liezl already go home. Aaminin ko, it's so boring without them.

I walk till I saw a vacant seat in the Sunken Garden. Maybe I can stay here for a while.

I look around. I saw everyone is busy, busy sa friend, yung iba busy sa jowa. I pouted. Edi sana all. I shook my head. No, I mean sana all may kasama.

I sighed and look up in the sky. Leaves are falling from the trees. There is no specific date kung kailan ang taglagas. For other countries in the temperate zone of the northern and southern hemisphere, it's around September to December but in a tropical country like the Philippines, I think it depends on the kind of trees or climate? I'm not sure.

Kung sa bagay, hindi mo nga naman talaga alam kung kailan ka mahuhulog. There is no specific date for it. But one thing is for sure. If you will fall... you will fall.

The wind is blowing. My hair is moving with the leaves and wind. My hair is too long, hanggang bewang ko na siya. Should I cut it? I cut it last May, maybe I'll cut it again today. Masyado na ulit mahaba yung buhok ko. Ako lang naman ang naggugupit ng buhok ko. I can do it to myself. Three to four inches is already okay, I want my hair long.

My hair is not straight like Hershey's hair. I have a long and wavy hair. Liezl has a short hair, she said she looks mature in short hair. How about me? Bagay kaya sa 'kin maikli ang buhok? I shrugged my shoulders. Maybe next time. Kapag broken-hearted na ako.

Napailing ako. Broken hearted? eh wala nga kong jowa. Tsk! I just laughed at myself. 

I look to the field and closed my eyes. It's so peaceful, so silent.

I feel lonely...

I opened my eyes and sighed heavily. I get my phone and take a picture of my Isaw. The background is the Sunken Garden. I post it on my IG story with a text of the word alone and a sad emoji.
