Naka tulala ako sa labas ng balcony at pinagmamasdan ang malaking bahay.

Ang laki nito.

Kagagawa lang kahapon.

"Alexa lumabas kana diyan sweetie please" tinig ng nasa labas ng pintuan.

What time is it?

It was 8:30 in the morning.

Ang sakit ng ulo ko.

"Beatrix lumabas kana diyan, pinag-aalala mo sila Tito" ani Nicole.

What are they doing here?

Eh ako anong ginagawa ko?

I haven't been out since Dad got angry to me.

At hindi pa ako kumakain.

Ang laki laki na ng eyebags ko hindi kasi ako maka tulog ng maayos.

I'm depressed.

I'm in failure.

I miss my real family.

And I miss Lucas so much.

Umupo ako sa kama ko at kinuha ang cellphone ko.

"Hey Siri, play some music" I said on my phone.

Playing some music Cradles by Sub Urban.

I live inside my own world of make-believe
Kids screaming in their cradles, profanities
I see the world through eyes covered in ink and bleach
Cross out the ones who heard my cries and watched me weep

I love everything
Fire spreading all around my room
My world's so bright
It's hard to breathe but that's alright
Hush
Sh

Tape my eyes open to force reality
Why can't you just let me eat my weight in glee?
I live inside my own world of make-believe
Kids screaming in their cradles, profanities
Some days I feel skinnier than all the other days
And some days I can't tell if my body belongs to me

As I was about to lose, suddenly something fell.

*Boogsh*

Napatayo ako sa gulat at napatingin sa balcony ko na naka bukas.

Nagulat ako dahil may pumasok dito at nagtungo sa harap ko.

"Heyy what are you doing here?" gulat kong tanong dito.

"How about you? What do you think are you doing?" balik na tanong niya saakin.

Napa simangot nalang ako at nag-iwas ng tingin.

"Hindi ka nanaman pumasok?" tanong ko dito.

"No because I want to go to school with you" ngiti niya saakin at inayos ang magulo kong buhok.

"Jayson I'm depressed" malungkot kong wika dito at bahagyang tumulo ang luha ko. "I want to see my real parents" dagdag ko pa habang umiiyak. " I'm a failure, no one's love me" I'm sobbing.

Lumapit siya saakin at hinawakan ang pisngi ko at habang ang isa niyang kamay ay pinupunasan ang luha ko.

"Cheer up, my dear. After every storm comes the sun. Happiness is waiting for you ahead. Nobody is superior, nobody is inferior, but nobody is equal either. People are simply unique, incomparable. You are you, I am I." he commented and kiss my cheeks.

Naliwanagan ako sa sinabi niya kaya niyakap ko nalang ito bilang pasasalamat.

He is a great adviser.
