Nakaupo ako sa tapat ng bintana at pinapakingan ang patuloy na bumabagsak ng ulan. Rain might be a bad weather for other people, pero kabaligtaran ako. I've always love how comforting the rain sounds and how loud but beautiful the thunder is. Gusto kong makapag-relax ngayon para makapag-isip-isip.

Hindi na siya makapag-isip ng maayos and just wished to dissapear. It was like the sky knew what she was feeling, the color gray looked so depressing just like what she was feeling at the moment.

Ang hanging pang-gabi ang bumalot sa’kin, parang alam ang sitwasyon ko at pilit na pinapagaan ang damdamin. That night, the sky wasn’t wonderful. It’s a bit gray and dark. Like the colors of sorrow and pain. The moon was covered by the thick clouds and after some moment of thundering, the heavy rain poured endlessly. It was as if they knew what I’m going through.
