Why The Future Doesn't Need Us Novelas e Histórias

Kapag talaga lumapit iyan sa akin talagang sisipain ko ‘yan. “Really? How about I tell you I can gave you a billion dollars,” pansin ko ang pag smirk niya. Ha? “Ede akin-Huyyyyy..... Kahit trillion pa ibigay mo sa akin hindi ako masisilaw, sino kaba sa tingin mo?” inis akong napa tanong sa kanya. “Your Future,” anya. “HAHAHAHAHAHAHA, Bóbó ka ba? Pano ka naging future ko? Ni wala ka ngang respito! Pwede ba kong wala ka namang kailangan sa akin pwede bang pauwiin mo nalang ako?”

Ngumisi siya habang napapailing bago muling magsalita. “Alam mo, may mga bagay na kailangan mong i-let go. In order for you to move forward. Kailangan ‘yon para maging masaya ka.” “Sana, ganyan rin ako katapang na harapin ang future ko.” “Bakit? Aren’t you happy for what you have right now?”

"Don't be confident that your parents can support all your needs and caprices because, at the end of the day, life is about you. You should depend on yourselves and study well for your future." "Having a successful life in the future is not about doing well in your studies today. Our future does not depend on studying or the grades we can get while doing your projects and tons of unrelated activities. Finishing college does not guarantee that we will succeed in the future. It's not the root of success," said sagot ko. I tried my best to sound as polite as I could. Nakakapagod magpanggap na mabait sa harap ng taong kinamumuhian mo.

“Althea… please… don’t leave me… I can’t…” Ngumiti ako ng pilit, kahit na sumasakit ang puso ko. “Caleb… we are not leaving for good. Pero kailangan natin ng space. Kailangan nating ayusin ang lahat. Para sa atin. Para sa future natin. Hindi ko sinasabi na hindi kita mahal… mahal kita. Pero kailangan natin ito. Nakakaintindi ka ba?”

Iyon na lang ang tanging naging rason sa isip ni Kila. Hindi nga niya kilala ang lalaki, pero sa hindi niya malamang dahilan ay may kung anong mainit na sensasyon na humahaplos sa kaniyang dibdib. Para bang nais na lamang niya sabihin lahat ng bumabagabag na problema sa kaniya, “My paintings was rejected.”

"I mean, kailan at sa anong paraan, paano, at saan?" Inirapan na naman niya ako. "Wala naman akong pakialam sa kung ano ang mangyayari sa future mo o ninuman. Wala akong pakialam kahit na malaman kong bukas ka na mamamatay,” aniya at nilayasan ako. Sinundan ko siya ng tingin at sandaling napatulala kay Uno.

I dreamed of a happy life that doesn't come to an end, but I guess, a happy one doesn't exist to last. It was just a short time-lapse, when everything seemed fine. When we think, we are living a life according to our plan. But they said, our future doesn't depend on what we thought it could be. Even how many times we planned for a specific scenario, there is always something and someone that will ruin it. That will ruin us, and that someone and something that will eventually convince us to better escape realities and hide from the misery that the world gives.

No'ng malalaman at halata na kung anong mangyayari sa atin sa piniling daan? "It's not that we can have a sin if we choose to think for our present. Happiness is more way better than to think of negative things. So Aishia, don't be so over advance, we can't know about our future. Future means to be wrote on, while present is the chapter where we write for our past. We should think for our present more often because I do believe that every letter that we write to our present can affect to our future." Mahaba-habang sabi niya.

“Hindi mo ba naisip na kung lalo tayong magiging malapit ay posibleng lalo lang lumalim ang nararamdaman natin para sa isa’t-isa?” “I thought about that,” he said. “But let’s just be honest that we don’t have a future with each other. The only thing we have is the present that we can take advantage of to satisfy ourselves before we face the reality of our lives.” Yeah, he is right. Our future is not for us to make. Someone else will decide it for us. All we have for ourselves is the present. “So?” he said. “What do you think? Are you willing to go on a date with me until our family comes for us and forces us to go back home?”
