Learned To Be Alone Quotes Mga Nobela at Kwento

"You're still young, when I was your age I am not as friendly as you. I always want to be alone. I prefer to be alone but as I age, I learned things and I became more lenient towards myself. I enjoy things and appreciate things." Tumatak sa aking isipan ang mga sinabi ni ate Avikah. Baka nga pagdating ng araw ang mga bagay na sinasabi nating ayaw natin ay siya pala ang magsasalba sa atin. "Siguro po kapag nasa edad ko na rin po kayo. Pero sa ngayon ay, sa pag-aaral ko muna ibubuhos ang aking oras, hangang sa makapag tapos."

Naging malikot ang mata ko at ramdam na ramdam ko ang kanyang malalim na hininga. “I want to hear it,” mapang-utos niyang sambit. “I want to hear you say, I love you too.” Medyo yumuko ako. “Nakakahiya.” “We are alone,” he said. “I am the only one who can hear those precious words.” “Carolina…”

Tumayo siya nang tuwid at tumalikod na parang aalis na, pero huminto sa may pinto at binalikang tingnan ako habang nagsasalita ng mga salitang nagbigay ng pinakamatinding takot sa akin. “Nalaman mo na rin naman, hindi ba? Walang sinumang tutulong sa’yo. Walang sinumang nagmamalasakit. Mas pipiliin nilang makita kang maghirap kaysa isugal ang sarili nilang kabuhayan. Mag-isa ka lang dito, kasama ako. At matututo kang tanggapin iyan… sa paraang gusto ko.” Muli ay sumara at nakandado ang pinto, at naiwan akong mag-isa sa malamig at tahimik na kwarto.

"Natatakot ako sa loneliness, I guess. I am terrified of being completely alone at walang matatakbuhan kapag gumuho ang mundo ko. Ang dami kong regrets nitong mga nakaraang linggo, 'yung tipong sana hindi ko na lang ginawa ang ilang desisyon sa buhay ko." "You are not alone, Aella," mahabang sagot niya, ang boses niya ay napakababa pero puno ng kasiguraduhan. "And don't look at your regrets as the end of everything. Sabi mo nga sa akin nung isang araw, habang humihinga pa tayo, may magagawa pa tayo."

Without depending on anyone… without seeking help from anyone. Diretso ang lakad ko palabas ng bahay nila. My heart is aching, not because I got insulted, but because of the fact that I feel like no one believes in me. Isang malalim at mabigat na paghinga ang pinakawalan ko. ‘It’s okay, Symphony. You can get through this… alone.’

Tumulong lang ako. But this time is different. I did it all alone. By myself. I wish I will hear words like these more often. I wish... But then, hearing Atlas' chuckle broke my little happiness.

"Soulmate talaga?" "Well, I've learned from somewhere that when people are restless for the thoughts of one person, they haven't made peace with their soulmates yet. I think that's what's happening with you." "If so, I will never know. I guess I have learned to be contented about everything. I've accepted the fact that perhaps, I really am meant to be alone." "Dash.." I beamed to him, "people are never meant to be alone. Like now, we are not alone. We're not anything but we are certainly not alone. You and I, we're a different kind of soulmates."

“Bakit ka nagbubukas ng butones? Maganda ba ang nasa loob niyan?” Halata ang gulat sa mukha ni Alden at mabilis na hinila ang maleta papunta sa kwarto nito. “Liyah, hindi naman pwede na ganyan ka na lang lagi. Wala kang magiging kaibigan niyan, apo,” paalala ng kanyang lolo. “Wala naman akong kaibigan talaga, lo. At saka kaya ko naman ang sarili ko kahit wala ang mga kaibigan na iyan. They would just betray me and I’d rather be alone.”

I just thought that maybe it's for those students who easily forget their knowledge. Nang mag-grade 9 ako ay wala namang pagbabago. I have some friends but don't really hang out with them often. When you're alone, you could think of things better. People just give hindrance to life, especially in decisions. They don't really give good advice, but problems instead. Kaya mas gusto ko ang mapag-isa na lang, pero sa kasamaang palad ay nagkaroon ako ng kapatid.

Akala ko ay tapos na ang pag-uusap namin nang magsalita siya. "I wonder why... Why do you always feel lonely even if you’re not?" I stared at him and smiled. "Because there are monsters I tried to drown. Sadly, they know how to swim. But somehow... being alone doesn’t make me sad because in isolation, sometimes, I found peace."
