I caught myself staring at my reflection for some quite time now. I'm still deciding whether to put makeup eh. These eyebags are so visible na rin since ilang days na 'kong puyat. I looked for my concealer and primer. Tinago ko na lang din 'yung mga blemishes ko sa mukha.

Ngayon naman, I can't choose what dress should I wear. Can't decide if white or black na dress but I took a glance sa clock namin. I'll be late for the mass if nagtagal pa 'ko rito!

When I went downstairs I saw my parents in a hurry.

"I'm sorry honey 'di ka namin masamahan. May biglaang meeting lang," and she kissed my cheeks at lumabas na ng bahay.

It's okay, 'di ko naman kailangan ng company tsaka d'yan lang naman 'yun sa chapel dito sa subdivision namin.

When I entered the chapel, all I see are unfamiliar faces. Syempre 'di naman ako friendly eh kaya I'm struggling to find a seat medyo marami-rami na rin kasing tao. But I saw tita Raquel's face sa medyo unahan and she waved at me saying that I should sit there. Medyo uncomfortable lang kasi sa first row.

She stood up and kissed my cheek. I smiled at her. Magsisimula na ang misa kaya 'di na rin siya umupo.

"In the Name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit..."

I was listening to the sermon when I felt my hands tremble. Tita Raquel noticed it kaya she held my hands.

"It's alright, we're gonna be fine," but her pair of eyes tells otherwise.

I looked outside only to see a gloomy sky which made me smile bitterly. What am I suppose to feel?

I was suprised when a pastoral leader approached me. I think it's time. I stood up and took another look at the skies.

It is drizzling.
