7 days with ugly duckling

There are people who will come into our lives who will bother and give us headache. But in time, the time will come when she will become a part of us. We don’t know that the time will come when we will love her and appreciate her until we cannot forget her for the rest of our lives.

7:00 A.M. (Saturday)

"Good morning handsome." My simple greetings in myself. I was drunk and got hangover for the party last night and I felt dizzy, but it was not a reason for me to rise up in the morning. I quickly jump out from my bed and press the remote control of the television and then, I watched the everyday news, there was a fire in Novaliches. Likewise, I was bored, and I guess my brain are not prepared to comprehend the information. So I tried to make breakfast.

7:15 A.M.

I thought the alcohol drained my whole system, but I was wrong. My body quickly respond to what I will do. I prepared coffee, sunny side-up eggs, ham and cheese together with bread. It took some minutes before I finish my breakfast because I’m starved. Afterwards, I wash the dishes and headed to the bathroom to take a bath.

8:00 A.M.

I went outside. The sun shone higher in the sky and I felt my energy was revitalized from the hangover last night. It’s an ordinary day. Life goes on, the engines roared, there are a lot of people in the park while the senior citizens chitchatting sat down in the benches, the children plays in the street. There is nothing unusual happen from this Saturday then all of a sudden…

9:00 A.M.

A beautiful woman hit me. I thought I’m going to fall into the ground, but I keep my balance or else we will be out of balance. But I guess it is a perfect timing for having a bad day because the heel of her shoes was broken. I thought I would introduce myself, but then I was turned off. What else would a gentleman do? I tried to help her to stand in her own and when I noticed that she can walk without my support, I left her.

9:15 A.M.

That’s how life can bother you sometimes.

I continue to walk, and I encounter some other things.

A vendor got a lot of balloons. He passed me and afterwards the balloons flew away into the sky and the children ran and follow the balloons. Accidentally, they hit me without any care, I felt irritated and much worse of all, a woman ran into my direction and I guess she avoided someone who follow her.

10:00 A.M.

I was the lucky one.

Hmpt!

She avoids the children who throw her stones. And for all those circumstances, she almost hugs me. I thought I want to avoid her, but we both out-of-balance and fell into the ground. It makes me wonder if I am a heart rob because two women accidentally hit me this morning.

I was about to recognize the face of the woman so that I brush her hair but then suddenly, I was shocked.

How I wish I never do that.

I thought I saw Shriek.

Princess Fiona became Shriek.

She is ugly, definitely ugly. She used braces in her teeth and wore a large spec. Not only that, but she looks like a nerd, pointed nose and bulging eyes. For the first time in my life, I encountered this kind of human. Is it alien or whatsoever creature? I’m scared.

10:10 A.M.

I got up with that woman. Even if I blinked an washed, that’s exactly what the woman looked like. She smiled at me and thanked me for saving with her. But it was all an accident. Isn’t it?

I avoided. Then here I am, I can’t really stare at her face for long. I feel like I’ve been on this bad trip all day. What the heck?

I just went home to the condo, very scary, it was as if I was watching a train to busan that passed 12:00 in the morning. I shook my head, maybe it’s just a trip break this morning. Maybe tonight everything will be ok.

6:00 P.M.

Flashback.

Endrix, Raim. Charles and I went to gig. We saw Danita and Vanessa (my crush) there. My heart beat suddenly quickened when I saw her. I can’t explain myself every time I feel her presence and I often rattled when I talk to her. I’m like that when I’m nervous every time I see Vanessa. But in spite of that, I also seemed to be floating in the clouds with great joy. But Charles kept pushing me away from her.

"Just be here. Don’t court with that woman." Charles said.

"Wait! Why pare? Isn’t she ok? " I was confused by what my friend told me.

"Oh enough!" Charles said.

He revealed that she is beautiful, but she only likes me because of money. Maybe not, their family is rich. But he just doesn’t want Vanessa for me.

10:00 P.M.

I went home to the condo, my friends took me. We were pretty drunk in the tower, we drank. My eyes rotate.

" Lance, we’re better to be off. Take care of yourself. Goodnight!" Endrix said.

I was lightheaded, and I am no longer in a condition to even understand what they are saying.

My friends locked the door and left me alone.

When I fell into bed. Blackout! Goodnight! ZZZ.

7:00 A.M. (Saturday)

Good morning Handsome.

A nice greeting to myself. I even had a hangover at our party last night.

I’m still a little dizzy, but that’s not an excuse for me to wake up and get out of bed. So I quickly got out of bed. I immediately turned on the t.v. and startled with daily news. Hay! There was a fire in Novaliches. I switched the channel as if my brain was still not in the mood for processing. I can now prepare breakfast.

7:15 A.M.

My body reacts quickly. I thought that alcohol had engulfed my entire body system. Not really. I move faster when I’m hungry (hehe). I was able to prepare coffee, sunny side-up and buns. Furthermore, I also eat for a few hours (to make sure I’m really full all day). After all, I put away all the dishes and went straight to the bathroom to take a shower,

8:00 A.M.

I’m out. Fortunately, the sun has shone on me, no matter how much my strength returns, and I was able to move on from my hangover last night. It’s an ordinary day. Life goes on, there are cars, there are people in the park. Old people chatting on benches, children playing in the street. There seems to be nothing strange this Saturday. So I just took a walk until all of a sudden……
