Under The Twilight Sky (KOV #3)

Prologue

********************

I wanted to be found, but I don't know how to be seen. As I wander around the endless sky, he found me lost and with no identity. No name, age nor anything else, it's just me alone. Who am I really? Why do I exist without any of those with me? Was I left all alone to meander on my own? Or am I the only one who could search for my truest self?? I'm terrified, what if looking for myself means losing him? Then maybe I'd rather stay lost with him.

People get lost in their way sometimes, and whenever I feel lost. I pull a map out and stare, I stare until I have reminded myself that life is a giant adventure, so much to do, to see. How unfair could the world be? Was it the world who's unfair or was it the people around me who chose to hid me for almost fifteen years?

He was wondering why all my life, I don't stare at my reflection in the mirror. He was wondering why I don't carry mirrors or anything where I could see my reflection, I even close my eyes before looking at gadgets just so I could avoid seeing myself through the phone. Stars don't shine without a little darkness, I was the one who made him shone brightly, Little did I know that my dark eyes were the one who saved him from sadness.

No one was there for him, but he never got lost on his way to find me. He knew where to search until he finally found his sky, I asked myself if I didn't got lost where would I be now? Will I have my own name? Family? Life? Will he still be there if I didn't go round and round to be found? He's making me wonder. The night sky reminds me of myself but I'll realize that he's the stars and that I was the only one who can make him shine brighter at night, we help and guide people using the tiny dot in the sky.

Was he the person I always knew? Or was he lost too before he even got a chance to search for me?? His dim lights makes me wonder, what if he was a different person? or maybe it's just me who thinks that way. I'll never get tired of looking under the same stars in the sky for as long as he can stay beside me, those infinite galaxies above are nothing if I'm all alone.

Why does this day felt like it already happened? Am I having another deja vu again?? What the hell? Wake up Avery, I know it's hard to wake up with no identity but it'll become more annoying if you don't get you ass up now. You have school today and for the first time, you'll transfer in a royal school. I mean prestigious school dummy, you're not British and you don't have a blue blood because you are a goddamn human being.

"AVIERY! LATE KA NA! FIRST DAY MO SA ST. VALENTINE NGAYON! HOY!!". Malakas na sigaw ni ate Azalea saakin. Tatayo na sana ako mula sa higaan ng bigla kong marinig ang boses ni ate Azalea, akala nila late na ako eh ang aga aga pa naman kaya bakit ako mag mamadali?

"Bunso seryoso late ka na tumayo ka diyan, ako na mag hahatid sayo". Kalmadong aniya ni kuya Allard saakin. Bakit ba paulit ulit sila? Ala sais palang ng umaga eh! Masyado naman maaga kung mag aayos na kaagad ako, isa pa unang araw ng klase ngayon. Ano naman ang mang yayari kapag nahuli ako? A punishment? Mukha ba akong sumusunod sa mga rules? Kina mama at papa lang naman ang hindi ko kayang suwayin eh.

Tumayo ako at muling kinuha ang telepono ko, pag bukas ko ay tila para akong namalik mata dahil late na nga talaga ako. Well ano pang magagawa ko? Whether mag madali ako o hindi malamang ganon pa rin naman ang resulta non at huli na ako sa klase, isa pa unang araw ngayon. Wala naman sigurong mag papataw ng parusa saakin dahil kakapasok lang, siyempre iisipin nila na hindi ako sanay magising ng maaga kaya nalate ako.
