THIS STORY IS UNEDITED. IT MIGHT HAVE TYPOGRAPHICAL AND GRAMMATICAL ERRORS. SO BE PATIENT ENOUGH... AND BE UNDERSTANDING.
I picked up the guitar and played my favorite song. I just sat on the edge of my bed while playing.
"We were both young when I first saw you
I close my eyes, and the flashback starts
I'm standing there"
My guitar is connected to the small amplifier I just want to hear the sound of my guitar.
Hilig ko ang musika sapagkat ito ang nagbibigay kulay sa mundo kong madilim.
Not everyone knows my talent because I don't have the courage to shout all over the world about my talent. Because who's Krystle in their eyes?
I'm just a nobody...
For me I sing because I like someone I want to sing to him someday hoping that he'll notice me someday.
"That you were Romeo, you were throwing pebbles
And my daddy said, "Stay away from Juliet"
And I was crying on the staircase
Begging you,
"Please don't go, "
You know why I really loved this song? It gives me the vibe I want. I want someone who will do everything for you like Romeo did to Juliet.
I'm one of those people who admires taylor swift for her beautiful voice and her songs.
I dreamed of going to her concert one day so I was starting to save money to buy a ticket.
"You're singing again?" Sean said like he was annoyed. He was the only younger brother that I have.
He's kind though but he'll judge every imperfections that you have even in your soul.
"What's your problem Sean?" I put my guitar on the bed and confronted him.
"Your friends are here." Then he left me after that.
I first looked at myself in the mirror whether it's okay for me to face them.
I really miss my high school squad because when were in college we separated.
Nang makababa ako nadatnan ko silang naglalaro na naman ng Uno. Same old day...
"Krystle!" Kate yelled at me and hugged me tightly. Shan and Lumi came over to hug me too.
Nang matapos ang batian namin ay umupo kami sa sahig na may nakalatag na sapin saka naglaro ng Uno.
"Change color na Yellow!" Shan said and placed her cards.
"Ang daya wala akong yellow!" Kate complained and then picked out a cards until she found the yellow one.
"Ayan change color Blue," Lumi said happily and placed her cards. "Blue para sa taong malamig na parang yelo." Ayan na naman siya sa pahugot-hugot niya!
"Red number 6," Shan said and placed her cards smoothly. "I hate you ex crush, charot!" Hindi siya sure kung hate niya talaga eh! Marupok award!
Naglaro pa kami hanggang sa paulit-ulit na natalo si Kate sa laro namin kaya pinagtatawanan nila Shan at inaasar.
"Kapag ako natuto lagot talaga kayo sa'kin!" She pointed Shan and Lumi who's laughing at her.
Pumunta na kami sa may garden dahil doon naghanda ng pagkain si Mama kasama ang papa ko syempre.
"Naamoy ko na ang pinakamasarap na adobo ni tita!" Shan said when she smell the dishes.
"Hali na kayo at kumain pagkatapos ay maligo kayo riyan sa pool." My mom gestured them to sit down on the circler table beside our pool.
In our garden you will find different colors of roses because my mother loved them. There are other flowers and trees on the side that are always watered by the gardener. Our pool is in the middle. There are for children, adults, and a small jacuzzi. On the other side of the pool are three small cage for the rabbits or bunny. It was three because we were three siblings.
"Tita where's your cactus?" Kate asked na para bang nang-aasar.
"Ahh nasa loob nilagay ko muna do'n kasi naglinis sila kaninang umaga." My mom said.
The three of them looked at me with a wide smile because of the words "Cactus"
"Hello Sean!" Shan greeted my little brother na kakarating lang dito sa garden at lumapit agad sa mama namin.
"Wow ah! Sean and Shan," Lumi pointed Sean and Shan when she said their names. "S and S!"
"Hoy bata 'yan shunga!" Shan macked her head for what she said and the four of us laughed at them.
"Oh I remember you're not tirador pala ng mga bata!" Lumi said while laughing and the three of us glanced at Kate who's avoiding our eyes.
"Tama na nga 'yan at kumain na kayo." My papa said nanahimik na rin kami para makapag swimming na kami.
I wear my Cropped top rash guard and Adidas shorts. We're all wearing the same but different colors. Shan's favorite color of course purple, Kate's favorite color of course it's blue, Lumi''s favorite color is Black, and my favorite color is yellow.
I saw them looking at me as I walked towards them. The smile on their lips was telling me something that they're planning to push me in the pool.
"Let's swim na guys!" Sabi ko sa kanila at hinawakan ang kamay nila.
Magkahawak kami ng kamay at ang planong sumabay na tumalon ay hindi nangyari dahil si Lumi at Shan lang ang nahulog at kami naman ni Kate ang naiwan kaya nagtitigan kami.
"Halika rito!" Hinabol niya ako para matulak ako sa swimming pool kaya nang mahuhulog na ako hinila ko na rin ang kamay niya para mahulog na rin siya.
"Grabe ang lamig na ramdam ko siya," hugot naman ni Shan at yinakap ang sarili niya nang umupo siya sa gilid ng pool.
"Sus, sino ba?" Tuksong tanong ni Kate sa kaniya na hawak hawak na ang paa ni Shan.
"Si crush ba?" She glared at me as if I said something wrong.
Hinila ni Kate ang paa niya kaya nahulog siya sa pool parang nalunod pa dahil sa malakas na paghila ni Kate dito.
"Lang'ya 'to dadaanin ako sa kwento may masama na palang balak!" Winisikan siya ni Shan ng tubig at kami naman ni Lumi at tumatawa lang sa kanila.
"Ang sayang panoorin na ganito pa rin tayo." Lumi said habang iniikot-ikot niya sa daliri niya ang buhok niya.
"I hope things wont change."
