Wind blows, leaving a breezy feeling in me
My eyes stare at the clear blue sky
Fluffy white clouds
There are times when even things you see everyday
Seem so magnificent and grand
I hum as I flip the album with red cover
Different colors sate my eyes
Our smiles flashing
With my mind replaying each and every moments
With a smile drawn on my lips
Happiness may not last that long but
What we once had is beyond beautiful
Say,do you remember me?
Our parade has long been over
The jolly plays no longer scheduled
The butterflies we shared have perished
Alas, that is of nature - all gaiety must come to a finale
With our scripts burn to dusts
And we all regret nothing
Not a single fraction of things
As some things occur just to be recorded in our memories
As knowledge
Sweet fleeting memories or even scars
Life has never been perfect, but it has beautiful moments
Now take a bow as the curtain falls
As I gaze into your eyes and give you my best smile
"Gratitudes...",I mutter
"...and Farewell".

A Brother's Diary
It's another rare day off college and off-part time work.
I haven't had the luxury of having nothing to do for such long time...
The thing is,when you're always busy, you start treasuring any moments you can spend doing nothing at all like right now.
I hear the front door open and footsteps that sound like a titan's.
Must be my lil sis,she is in a foul mood.
Oh well, one...two....three
"BROTHER!",she slams my door open.
"Yeah yeah,what happened THIS time? Tell me"
She is still huffing and puffing, her hair messy as hell. Quite a funny sight actually.
"Sit down",I mutter as she sits down.
"So?"
"I am annoyed! He is ignoring me!"
"He who? The one or the other one?"
"BROTHER!"
"I am joking , chill!"
Let me sum this up.
My little sister's first love was an alien who rejected people with strange Albert Einstein theories (Even I as a man can't take his side because...Damn! What the hell? Theories? The only theory I remember is Charles Darwin's Evolution Theory). She was badly hurt and couldn't move past the heartbreak (Ah,youth...) for years. How did she get so devoted anyway? I've never even liked someone that long. Girls...
Anywayyyy,years later she found a good friend. Even I like him (not in a gay way,mind you!). He was a serious, smart and friendly guy. My only concern was that I can't really trust him. You know, man to man impressions... Man feeling. Call it whatever you want. Aaaanywayyyy this man is such a push & pull (door?), one day he's warm as cheesy gratin in Italian soup and other days he's colder than freezing point zero degree Celcius. One night he makes my sister feel like a madonna and the other day he ignores her like sidewalk pebbles. So she's causing a riot now because she's mad. She has been updating her BBM status saying things like Truth hurts but leaving someone hanging hurts that person more , IDGAF ANM... Who is she trying to fool, she cares.
This is the advice I've been giving her : Ignore him back , befriend someone else, marry someone else, but for now focus on making your brother happy like cooking gratin for him. Yeah,she smacked me hard when she heard that.
THE THING IS...
My sister tends to trust people very easily and treat everyone specially... So they all think she has crush for them. Treating everyone nicely is good but trusting ? Nope.If I must guess why this man runs away like a mouse chased by Garfield, I'd say he's afraid. Lil sis is too devoted style and committed and let's say she doesn't take things easily. He's afraid she will fall for him because he doesn't have any intentions to date nor any feels. He's young after all, I get it. If I tell her this though, I guarantee the response will be MEN ARE ALL JERKS. That's such an unfair statement!So it is better for him to ignore her and end things here before it turns to a drama consisting of 100 episodes.
I know it's selfish, but he's young-I was once young too. We are pretty much kids who want to be free. Psychologists said that women mature mentally faster than men and I can't agree more with those nerds. THEY MATURE TOO FAST.
"Maybe he just doesn't want to hurt you"
"I just want to be friends! Why so dramatic?"
"All relationships begin with friendship,dear"
"But still that ain't reasons to reject friendship. Am I hated?"
"I told you,you trust people too much and you're too nice,you come off as VERY DEVOTED"
"..."
Oh shit, I made her sad. Arrest me , sue me , judge me guilty, give me death penalty.
"I don't even love him. I just want to be friends. He doesn't need to ignore me"
"Let's just make it a lesson kay?"
"It can't be a lesson if he won't tell me where I went wrong, why we can't be friends, what wrong impression or misunderstanding I gave him!"
...Good point there...
"If he suddenly ignores me without a fight, I don't know what to make of it..."
She slumps
Poor sister, she's so sad.
"They say everything happens for a reason",I start speaking,"Of course we don't know what reasons but there are countless possibilities. What if God is putting up a magic barrier between you because He foresees tragedies ahead? Maybe you two end up dating and parents don't agree like those old Chinese dramas? Maybe he's secretly a psycho or he is a playboy? Maybe your fated one is somewhere else? Maybe if you become friends someday you will be partners in committing Terror and Bombing Bali?Who knows. But picture this. If pizza makers didn't put any vegetables on pizza because they are hated by children,we won't get to taste the freshness in pizza tomatoes ever. If Cinderella chose to be a good girl and stayed home, she wouldn't meet Prince Charming. And if you choose to proceed with him , maybe you will miss a chance of becoming a mafia wife or queen"
Makes no sense, I know. But I do believe so.
And I swear I will never treat a woman like that because I'm afraid of karma. I have a sister.
After moments of silence,my little sister laugh hard. I just...shrug, at least she's laughing right? "You're right brother. Why make this such a fuss? I still have many friends anyway. And sometimes... Strange things happen and we will never find out why but God knows. Someday, we will both be drinking wine and laughing about the past"
"Yes,save your kindness and devotion for your starving brother and future boyfriendssss"
"Boyfriend"
"Okay,omit plural. Now let's order a pizza with extra cheese". GRAMMAR NAZI!
Whatever it is, I will watch over her till she grows to be a good woman. And someday, in her big house when she's having a birthday party of her first child and lots of her friends are around , I will pat her shoulder and say
"I told you"
