Dark skies over my head. Too damn tired to care how I looked like. 

Arrived in my place. It's empty. Hollow. 

Peace at last.

I'll succumb to silence, I told myself.

Fell asleep.

My name is Pao. I work 40 hours a week for a multinational firm.

I am bisexual. I like boys as much as I like girls. Lots of people keep on telling me that "sayang daw ako". I don't mind them. As long as I love the person, gender doesn't bother me. 

Woke up around 9PM. Checked my phone. Interesting.

A facebook message. Message that I never expected.

A straight guy saying hi. Really interesting. 

Him: Hi.

Me: Hello.

Him: Kamusta na?

Me: I'm good. Ikaw?

Him: Ayos lang.

Me: Is it ok if I'll just text you. 

Him: Yes. 

He gave me his number. I did not text him. 

My mind keeps on playing scenarios of him and me being together. I actually like him. I think last time we actually talked was four years ago. 

Thing is, I am tired. Tired of falling in love again. Tired of getting burned down to ashes. 

I am a logical person. I don't like to gamble. I know that once Mr. Emotion and Mr. Heart tags along with me, it would only means chaos. 

I did not text him.
