Right Into Place

All her life, people always make her feel she's on the wrong side. Parang walang nagagawang tama si Heidi sa mga mata ng parents niya. Lagi siyang naikukumpura sa kanyang mga pinsang successful. Maski nga sa bestfriend niyang mahinhin, soft-spoken at masunurin sa magulang ay ikinukumpara siya. Laging may butas na nakikita sa mga desisyon niya sa buhay. Laging may mali sa mga ito when all she did was chase the happiness that just felt right for her. Para bang kahit na gaano kagaan at kaaya-aya ang pakiramdam niya sa isang bagay, lagi iyong lihis sa direksiyong gusto ng mga taong tahakin niya.

At first, she can handle everything through her carefree and light attitude. The look of disappointment in her Dad's face. The look of dissatisfaction in her relatives' expressions. The raw smile of the people around her.

Pero paano kung dumating ang isang taong gugustuhin niyang paluguran? What if she aimed to change that disappointed look on his face every time he look at her by something like... he's pleased about her? About what she's doing?

She thought he was a challenge for her. Kasi tila mainit ang dugo nito sa mga kapalpakan niya. Well, he's kind of perfectionist. Later on she would find herself doing everything to please her bestfriend's older brother.

Pero mukha ngang hindi niya na mababago ang first impression na nalikha niya sa isip nito. And for once, emotions got the very best of her. It made her tired. Tired of trying. Tired of smiling. Tired of chasing her own happiness which she learned that all the people around her will never be concerned about. No one will care for her own satisfaction. For her own happiness.
