To create a beautiful story, one should go and find himself. Go to places that he have never been before. Search for his heart to choose to live and feel home.

" Self- actualization is said to be the peak of maslow's hierarchy of needs but its not the end but the start " I said.
"Great Ms. Siera well said"
"Thank you Ma'am"
I went to my seat and organized my things, looked on the rosary and thanked. I don't like reporting in front. Its like my heart beats out from my chest bursting, screaming to stop the scenario but can't.
"Great well said siera" on a sarcastic tone "the fuck? ! Such a nerd"
I looked at them and said "God could've made me deaf but I didn't and He could've made you blind but He didn't "
I went out of that room since class got dismissed.
*ring *ring *ring
"Ma?" I said
"Anak? Anong oras ka uuwi? I made dinner for you your step dad is waiting for you" my mom said
"Dadaan lang po ako kay Vir mom, ibibigay ko lang po yung notes niya."
I'm Siera pure pinoy, I currently live here in korea. My mother has a korean boyfriend here. So we stayed here with him for a year now because he helped my mom to get a job. I'm dying to come back in the Philippines, besides I don't even speak korean language. Nakakanose-bleed na rin mag-english here.
"Vir, here are your notes kamsahamnida~" sabi ko
"Ne, seat your speaking korean now huh?"
"It's my first time your eating rice again? I thought your on a diet?" Sabi ko
"No!No! Can't maybe next time" Vir said
Vir Go, she's my only friend here in Korea, thank God I met her. May nasasabihan ako ng mga problema ko kahit papano pero pag di na kinaya ng english ko. Cancel na lang.
"Mom, I'm home" sabi ko nakita ko sila sa sala nakaupo parang hinintay nila talaga ko.
"I'm gonna serve the food." Sabi ni mama
"Good evening." Tapos nag-bow ako nag-bow din si tito. Di kami nagkakaintindihan neto pano kasi ayaw mag-aral engles sila lang ni mama nagkakaintindihan.
Pagkatapos magserve ni mama kumain na kami.
"Sdcgdbrigneri de" sabi ni tito
"Ano daw ma?" Tanong ko.
"Anak, may sasabihin kami sa iyo." Sabi ni mama
"Ano po yun?" Tanong ko.
" We can't afford to make you go to that school anymore the expenses we spend weekly is not enough for us three, that's why we decided to --"
Tumingin ako kay tito, kumakain lang siya nakikinig.
"Send you back to the philippines"
Tumigil ang mundo ko di ko alam kung matutuwa ako o malulongkot.
"Ma, magkakahiwalay tayo. Labag ba sa loob mo yon? Sinasaktan ka ba niya? May mali ba kong nagawa?"
"Anak, wala papadalhan ka namin ng tito mo don, mas malaki pa ang value ng kapalit ng income ko. Anak, intindihin mo."
Its been months, konting panahon na lang babalik na ko sa pilipinas. Pero bakit ganon?
*bugshh*
"Watch where your going dumbass" sabi nung lalaki.
Sa halo-halo university pala ko nag-aaral ewan ko pati pangalan ng pinag-aaralan ko di ko mabanggit basta international school to.
"May itsura ka? Bat ngayon lang kita nakita? Hmm. May potentialism ka sa akin" sabi ko habang nakatitig ako sa kanya papalayo ng lakad sakin.
"Thank you students may you have a wonderful vacation." Sabi ni ma'am
Pumunta ko sa record room para makuha yung mga record ko isang taon lang naman ako nag-aral dito. Nakaupo na ko , tinatype niya na kung ano mang ginagawa niya dun di ko naman maintindihan yung nakasulat.
*bugshhhh*
Napatingin kami parehas sa pinto
"I'm here to get my records ASAP. Here's the money, send it to me before noon or else.". Sabi niya.
Namumukaan ko siya, siya din yung nakabangga ko kanina. Teka ang unfair naman neto!
"Excuse me? I was here first! First come, first serve mister!"
He glanced at me its like his going to kill me.
"Shut up" tapos tinignan niya ko. "Pony"
Pony?
"Pony? I was here first, Ma'am please complete my record, I need to get it before lunch I'm going to pack my things already so-" sabi ko.
"Hey? Don't you know me?" Tumingin siya sakin.
"Hindi aaa-- No! I don't know you and I don't care!". Sabi ko
Lumapit siya sakin, hahawakan niya dapat yung braso ko pero umiwas ako. Nairita siya nung hindi niya ko nahawakan.
"Guy! Please stop, Ms. Siera your records is almost done just 10 minutes more. Mr. Tau I'll start yours as soon as I'm done with Ms. Siera's I'll send it to you as soon as possible." Sabi ni Ma'am
"Tsh. Fine send it to me" sabi ni Tau??
Tapos tumingin siya sakin "Siera" sabi niya "Tau" naman sabi ko.
Ayoko ng makita siya ulet! Kala ko pa naman may potentialism may attitude pala.
The Day
"Anak, make sure pa dating mo dun lagi tayong may contact, ito na yung address mo. By week time baka makabit na yung internet. Ito yung card mo dyan kami magpapadala ha? Mag-ingat ka. Always pray anak ha? " Sabi ni mama.
"Opo."
I took my flight alone. I wonder if I can live on my own. I've forgotten who I was before. I'm gonna find who I'm again and this life, my life is so unpredictable. Since my dad died I felt like a fraction he was a big part of me.
"Taxi ma'am?" Reality na. pamuntik ng bumagsak yung luha ko.
"Kuya do you know this place?" Tanong ko.
"Bela Vista subdivision? Nako napakalayo ma'am sa cavite pa ho iyan?" Sabi ni kuya
"Do-doblehen ko kuya para di ka na luge. Please? Pagod na po kasi ako." Sabi ko
"Ay, sige po ma'am sakay na po."
Nasa byahe na naman ako. At sobrang traffic hay nako pinas!
"Kuya bakit ang traffic? Ginabi na tayo masyado."
"Ma'am di ko rin po alam e"
Umusad ng umusad hanggang sa nakita ko yung cause ng traffic may nagbanggaang 3 kotse. Grabe naman yun. Nakakatakot hmmm.
"Nako, nagkahabulan na naman ang mga sindikato dito. Ma'am mag-ingat po kayo dito. "
