Sunday morning after holidays, Zyona woke up with a poker face and then she smiles because she remembered its her "me time" in the lake.

She immediately stood up prepare herself and things, when she got a text message from her best friend Chincy (as Jessica Stroup) since high school...

"girl! Morning! Labas tayo, my treat naiinip kasi ako?! :( "

Zyona felt confused if she's going to join her bff or go ahead to her own itinerary.

"Girl! Masarap ang libre pero may lakad kasi ako remember its my lake day? Hope u understand if u want later tonight..." Zyona replied.

"Ahhh ok, no problem girl i'll ask Auery anyway. Ganyan tayo eh inuuna sarili bago iba lol ingat text us if tapos ka na so you can join us" Chincy responded.

A quick text back from Zyona "hahaha ganun talaga girl, alright text na lang ako later".

Then she went out of her room and go diretcly to the kitchen, "what to cook?... I think tocilog mmmm..."

After 15 minutes Zyona sat down and eat her breakfast while checking her scrapbook with a big sigh...

"Lord ano naman next sa buhay ko? I'm happy naman kaso may missing bakit ganun?" she decided to visit the nearby church before heading to the lake.

Zyona S. Dela Cruz (as Mandy Moore) is 28 years old a home based telemarketer like a bpo at home, so she has all the time she needed and still being paid.

She has her own condo unit a studio type in Pasig city, oooppsss it's the grand prize from the grocery she used to go to and she won 6 months ago. How lucky!

They have their family home in San Juan city, but she left there since she has her own place and wants to live independently. Only her siblings were there, her older brother Zandrew 38 years old with her fiance Keira whose actually 4 months pregnant and her sister Zeine 35 years old with her husband Oscar Santiago and her 2 year old baby boy named Zancho .

Unfortunately, In 2007 both of her parents died due to car accident in North Luzon Expressway...

*Going back to ZYONA...

She locked her condo and rushed to go down...

"Sana hindi umuulan... I dont want this day to be a frustrating one" as she wait for a shuttle van to fill up she saw a couple beside her holding hands, like in flash she has all this flashback memories and started to feel excited at the lake. The ride will take her 15 minutes to church and as usual she checked her facebook account.

Suddenly, the driver shouted "may simbahan ba diyan?"
Zyona answered "meron po"

she arrived and upon entering the church, right away she kneel down and pray...

" In the name of the father the holy spirit... Lord thank you for this day, our father...holy mary... Glory be to the father... Sana po be my guide in everything and kapit lang po sa kabaliwan ko" With a big grin on her face.

She went out very hopeful that blessing will come on her way as she wait for a jeepney going to the lake in Rizal.

It took her 35 minutes and finally destination reached, she jumped around while walking to the path way to the lake...

"Lord thank you! i'm here yey! Its not raining at walang tao still serenity as it's best but if meron my place is free on that big rock"... Pointing to her favorite area.

She started to stare the lake like as she never been there before, pulled out her scrapbook as thick as almost the medium size dictionary.

She opened the first page and 2nd, and 3rd and she stopped. Shes very dreamy plus imaginative that moment she even picture out whats written and projected it on the lake like watching a movie. She's smiling the whole time with the intense feeling of in love just comes out.

20 minutes later, someone said...

" perfect! Do you usually stay here all day long? How often? Are you alone?" Zyona was surprised that there is a girl behind her...

"lakas maka english ahh pati ba naman dito mag ala call center agent ako haha" talking to herself.

Then she answered "Hi, yes. Its been 2 months since my first time here and it's great to come back. I'm Zyona you are? Alone?".

The girl from behind responded...

"I'm Dana (as Mae Whitman), magisa lang po ako 2nd time ko na dito, the first I'm with my friends nung last week lang.
Ahhhmm naistorbo ko po kayo? Sorry ganda po kasi ng smile niyo nung nakita ko kayo".

Zyona felt weird, "omg! d kami talo neto" talking to herself.
She answered her "Thanks smile talaga nagdala girl!"

Dana quickly said "opo sana ganyan din ako magsmile parang ang gaan ng life"

"huh heyy youre too young para magemote noh your age?" ~Zyona

"16 po..."

Astonished with her age so Zyona answered "sweet 16! chill girl marami pang mangyayari sayo, tignan moko im in my late 20's still keeping up."

Dana quickly sat beside her, and listening to her.. " you know what , at some point its easier to open up things to someone who you barely knew. Any issues ?"

"true po ba yon? Eh yong guy po kasi nafall ako he's my best friend at currently may girlfriend na siya (ang saklap), lungkot noh? While sa bahay a lot of pressures nakakatamad tuloy". ~Dana

"sus yon lang? Haha nakakatawa ka ah sisiw lang yan girl, pero sa family mabigat nga yan been there done that, ok so let me share you my life its all about love" with a sweet smile on her face.~Zyona

"life?love? Naconfuse po ako" ~Dana

Zyona showed Dana what she's holding~

"okay here is my scrapbook let me unfold things to you...

My family are my life, my love...
Kami yong family na we love gatherings, surprises, labas dito labas doon, we support each other and take note hindi kami mapera ah mayaman? no no no!
Best things are free sabi nga, and in a glimpsed everything changed when our parents died. Devastating and definitely depressing.

You know whats the hardest part ?"

Dana's response~ " ano po? Gastos? Kasi wala na parents na tutulong? To the rescue..."

Zyona smirked and said~

"what the heck?!

Seriously? Never namin inisip yan the way you think ah tsk tsk,

the hardest part is that they are gone, you have to undone the things you used to do with them because they will never coming back! ". and she started to get emotional...

Dana is shocked but a bit ashamed to what shes murmuring is far different from Zyona's personal experience.

*silence* for about 10 minutes. *cold breeze blows*

Zyona stared Dana's eyes " Girl you have to be grateful with what you have not with what you don't have! Life is about sharing your love to one another!"

"hmm ano po? Medyo na slow ako" ~ Dana

Zyona tapped Dana's shoulder and said...

"its simple, I believe kasi lahat naman ng interaction naten sa kahit sino dedepende sa love.

Example nainis ka parents mo kasi naprepressure ka sa lahat ng gusto nila mangyari sa buhay mo, but if you let the love for your parents is on top you ... You wouldnt feel pressured instead determined! Right?

Oh dyan sa best friend mo, its no ones fault na nafall ka, spread the love to him as your best friend alone! learn to detach emotionally or we should say romantically kaya lang its a process pero kaya! go girl" ~Zyona

Dana felt amazed that she heard all this and simply nodded.

"Ito nalang para ma excite tayong dalawa, my love stories...well i have 4 ex's" Zyona laughed so hard."

Dana said "talaga po? Haha sige kwento ka ate"

Zyona stopped and smiled "ate talaga? Thanks I like it!"... "Oh well here it is My first boyfriend, my first love..."

***Was it enough for first chapter or its nice start ?

Ang weird pag pinagsama sama mo story namin magbabarkada for real! Haha Enjoy :)

Keep smiling everyone!
