It's been a few days since we arrived here, sabi ni Peter na ilang araw pa lang naman ang nakaka lipas matapos namin dumating dito. The time here doesn't run, looking at our phones and wristwatch would be useless because the date doesn't change either. Kung ano ang araw, taon, buwan at oras na umalis kami sa present time ay nananatili pa ring ganon ang naka display. It's not moving at all, not an inch.

My dad and I are having a lot of fun but now is not the right time to do that, hindi pa ayos ang sitwasyon ngayon. At this very moment, sobrang dilim na ng langit kahit may araw pa rin naman na sumisikat. The people are starting to feel anxious dahil hindi na nila alam ang susunod na mang yayari, ganon din naman kaming lahat eh.

It's not just them who's struggling, lahat ng nilalang sa mundong ginagalawan namin ay naapektuhan din. They don't have to blame my grandparents for it, hindi rin naman nila ginusto na mang yari to. It's wasn't anyone's fault in the first place, hindi ko rin kase masabi kung talaga bang may kasalanan si Tinkerbell or wala. She's still Peter's grandmom, they're basically related at one another.

Hindi ko siya kinakampihan, for me? Peace and harmony is what's more important pero parang hindi naman ata tama na basta na lang ako maniniwala sa mga naririnig ko mula sa mga trabahador ni Lolo. I heard them once, talking about Ms. Tinkerbell. They said na kilala daw siya bilang isang magaling at matalinong pixie sa buong Neverland, she and my Lolo are really close together.

Palagi silang mag kasama sa lahat, they even built the first machines together. When she heard that my grandfather went missing while traveling west, she immediately investigated and found out na napunta siya sa mundo ng mga tao kung saan niya nakilala si Granny. The one said she felt infuriated by that news then the other replied, she didn't but she just wanted him to go back.

Lolo refused because he loved granny too much, ayaw niyang umalis sa mundo ng mga tao. They had an argument about it but Ms. Tinkerbell ended up going back to the Neverland alone, I'm sure she's pretty upset tungkol sa pag tanggi ni Lolo na bumalik kaagad sa mundo nila. They belong here but Lolo can choose kung saan niya gustong manatili, he did chose but unfortunately? It didn't turned out to be a good idea to do so.

"Hey? Are you okay?". Peter asked. I nodded and smiled, hindi ko na namamalayang nakatulala na pala ako.

"Yeah I am, why?". I replied. I'm just a bit bothered, hindi ako mapalagay. Naka plano na ang lahat, we'll leave tomorrow at Dawn para walang masyadong naka tingin. We don't want to be seen by anyone else, attention? Hindi yon nakaka buti dahil ayaw namin silang umasa.

I can't guarantee that I'll be able to save everyone, hindi ako diyos. I'm not the powerful almighty or whatever, nag aalala ako dahil baka umasa sila sa'kin then I'll fail them all. Ayokong mangako, making promises aren't easy as saying it out loud. There's a possibility that it can become a lie too, I'm not a liar. Perhaps, I hate lying because my whole life is already a lie.

"You've been spacing out too much, If you're not ready yet then tell me so I can ask them to move it in a different time". Pag aalala niyang sambit. How can I complain? Everything and everyone are in my shoulder now, lahat kayo? At lahat ng kung anong meron sa mundo na ito ay responsibilidad ko na kahit hindi ko ginusto.

"No Peter, I'll be fine. Medyo pagod lang siguro ako sa mini training natin kanina". I replied without hesitation. The time doesn't run here remember? We have enough time to prepare ourselves, I've been practicing countless spells and battle techniques and using weapons.
