In the end, I gave up and destroyed the last canvas I used. "Fuck this life!" I yelled, throwing my tools in that place. I didn't know what was happening to me. I was losing my mind; I was angry and disgusted. I looked up at the ceiling and blew air. Then I looked down at the floor and smiled like an idiot. "What happened to me? What's wrong with me?

Hindi ko namalayan na nakatingin na pala siya sa akin. Mabilis akong ngumiti at tumango.

Kahit mukha na akong tanga rito ay hindi ko pa rin mapigilan. Damn. I'm such a crybaby!

"Im not okay, My marriage is not okay, My family is not okay, Even my brain is not okay!" Tinakpan ko ang aking mukha gamit ang mga palad ko at saka umiyak ng umiyak.

"Does it hurt? Tell me where it hurts. I'll book the earliest flight home right now—" "No!" mabilis kong putol dito kahit garalgal na ang boses ko. "No... don't panic. I'm okay." Ngunit kabaligtaran noon ang nararamdaman ko. Hindi ako okay. Sobrang layo ko sa pagiging okay. Napayakap ako sa sarili ko habang pilit na hinihigop ang hangin sa paligid.
