~A work of fiction~
All characters,places,organizations,religion and incidents portrayed in this story are fictitious.

I woke up early than I usually do. With a fast beating heart,I still manage to put a genuine smile on my lips,a little stretch for me to be fully awake.

I take a few seconds for me to glance at my vanity mirror and smile at myself.I am very much excited for today,and of course...nervous.

I grab my phone together with my towels,for my hair and for my body. As I entered my bathroom,the music starts to play,I move my body with the beat of the music while I'm enjoying the water that's pouring from the shower.Completely minding my own business and taking my time.

After I dried myself,I brushed my teeth and did my skincare.I also put some lotion to moisturize my skin and a bit of cologne before I walk out of the bathroom.

I've never been this excited when I woke up.I remove my towel to let my hair dry,I don't really use blower,I am only able to use one when I go to salon,though I have one here with me.

I spray a lot on my clothes,in front and at the back of it.To its sleeves,every piece of it.It feels like I don't wanna miss a place where I didn't put a cologne.

I comb my hair when it's completely dry,then I wear my outfit.It's a simple red fitted dress,it fits me very well that it gives compliment to my natural body shape.

And for my make up look,I wanted to keep it simple and natural.Earlier I did my skincare,that only consist of facial wash,exfoliator and a moisturizer.That's why I already proceed on putting on some make up products such as cheek cream,to make it look like I am blushing and put a lip moisturizer before adding up some lip tint.I put a baby powder to finish my look.I fixed my brows with the help of my fingers.

I divided my hair at the center and comb it nicely,and on each side,I put my hair at the back of my ears.From my nape,I grab a handful of my hair and put a tie on it.They called it "a middle part low pony tail".I also put a watch on my wrist.

After preparing,I smile at the mirror.The look was very simple and I love how it turns out...

Very me.

And oh!Before I forgot,I put on my sneakers-I guess,for now I'll be using a doll shoes.Perfect!

I checked everything on my bag.Car keys,balm,tint,comb,cologne,alcohol,extra tie,wallet,and...a box that has a pair of necklace.

I checked my room if everything is fine,I don't wanna leave it messy.I got out of the room with a big smile and going down the stairs with so much energy.

"Good morning!"I greeted everyone.

"Today's the day?"my Mom asked.

I exhaled and smile before I nodded. "Today's the day."

Just like that,I left the house,I made sure that I got a bottled water with me,so that I'll not feel so much of an empty stomach on the way even though I didn't have anything before I left.I know that I'll eat when I get there.

When I reached Tagaytay,I know that my smile got bigger. The scenery was so refreshing with the fact that it's a large garden that open for everyone.Before I got down of my car,I retouched my cologne,it was nearly empty,I got sad because it's my favorite one,but never mind,I knew this once worth it.

I went straight to the reserved area that I booked...just to let go all of those happy smiles.

It was empty.

But before I got down on my feet,I've decided to stand up and wait patiently...

But time passes,people come and go from that place,the person I expected didn't came.The sky started to get dark.But still,he didn't came.

I held my cheeks as I felt that it was wet.I wipe my tears that should be the cause of my happiness,but otherwise.

I grab my phone and typed, 'I'm here'.

Few more hours before the sky started to cry,I've decided to go to my car.Few more hours before the sky break down,I've decided to go home as the news says that there'll be a typhoon.

Again,I grab my phone and typed, 'I was there.'

Good thing I went home everybody's asleep.I went straight to my room,remove my clothes and sat on my bathroom's floor,letting the shower sulk me with water.I cried and let my tears flow with the water.

I reached for my phone.It's 11:59...and it's October first.

Enjoy reading...
