5 PM.
Fuck. Fuck. Fuck. Fuck.
Hindi ko alam kung paano ko uumpisahan ikuwento ang mga nangyari simula kaninang umaga. Dahil napaka-imposible. It feels like I'm inside a terrible nightmare and I'm unable to wake myself up. Gods, I'd do anything to wake up.
Earlier this morning, around 7 AM, I woke up to loud noises outside. Nang imulat ko ang mga mata ko, nakita ko si Hannah na nakasilip sa bintana. Marty was still fast asleep beside me.

Sinampal-sampal ko ang sarili ko para mapatunayan na hindi nga ako nananaginip. I winced in pain, then I willed myself to look away from the carnage outside. Hannah was still as a statue. Gods, nangyayari nga talaga lahat ng ito.
The apocalypse had started.
