i smiled as i pack my
things in my luggage.
this is it, i can finally
get back to the
philippines.

i can feel the breeze
of the filipino air although
i'm still not there, that's
how i missed that place.

nararamdaman ko rin
ang kakaibang tuwa sa
dibdib ko habang iniisip
na makikita ko na ulit
ang nanay ko. i can
finally take a little break
with this job of mine.

it's been awhile since
i've last seen her, them.

i suddenly felt my stomach
groan of hunger, i stopped
for a while on packing my
things. i zipped my luggage
before heading to the kitchen.

i opened my refrigerator and
looked for something to eat,
i found a slice of cake on the
corner and took it.

as i closed the refrigerator,
a fragile object suddenly fell
and scattered on the floor,
making a loud, unpleasing
sound.

tiningnan ko kung ano yung
nabasag. it's a frame, with
the picture of me and my
mother.

i suddenly sweat with no
reasons and i can feel
that my heart is beating
fast, like something bad
will happen.
