"Adrian, It's already time!" sigaw ni mom.

It's morning, again. What's good with mornings anyways? After ko mag shower, I go downstairs to prepare some breakfast. I took some bread and put some cheese on it.

"Are you ready?" my mom asked.

"I'm always ready." I answered.

We're going to the hospital to meet my psychologist. Yes, I have Attention-Deficit / Hyperactivity Disorder. In short, I can't focus on one thing. Hindi ako mapakali. That's why I will meet my psychologist.

Nang papasok kami sa hospital ay agad ko nakita ang babaeng lagi kong kasabay dito sa hospital na ito. Nakikita ko rin siyang madalas sa work ko. Naglalakad siya ngayon palabas ng hospital with her mom. Bago siya lumabas ay humarap siya sa akin and she smiled. Weird talaga ang mga tao.

After my appointment with my psychologist, dumeretso na ako sa work ko. After my duty, habang palabas ng mall I saw the girl from the hospital. Napatigil naman ako ng makita siya na parang may sinisilip sa loob ng isang store. What is she doing? Nagulat ako nung humarap siya sa akin at biglang tumakbo sa likod ko na parang nag tatago.

"What the heck are your doing?!" I said.

"Basta tago mo ako, please!" she said.

After non ay may biglang lumabas na lalaki sa store na sinisilipan niya. Parang may hinahanap ang lalaki at lumabas na ng mall. Lumabas naman agad yung babae sa likod ko.

"Thank you!" she said and smiled at me.

"No worries." I said at nag simula na ulit mag lakad.

"Teka, ikaw yung lalaking lagi sa hospital diba?" she said.

Tinignan ko siya at tumango.

"I'm Vanessa. You?" she said.

"Adrian." sabi ko at nagpatuloy na sa paglalakad.

"Ano ginagawa mo lagi sa hospital?" she asked at sinusundan ako.

"Meeting my psychologist." I said.

"May sakit ka?" tanong niya and I nodded.

"Ano sakit mo?" tanong nanaman niya.

Tumigil ako sa pag lalakad at tinignan siya.

"Do I have to tell you everything? And why are you following me?" I said.

"Eh bawal ba?" she said.

"Tss. I hate humans." I sad and nag lakad ulit.

"Susundan pa rin kita!" sagot naman niya.

Whatever. Nag lakad ako hanggang sa makarating ako sa park at nasa likuran ko pa rin siya.

"Okay, what do you want?" I said at umupo sa bench.

"I just want you to talk to me." she said at umupo rin sa tabi ko.
