MICASA SUCASA

I can still remember the time when Mingu said to me,"Micasa Sucasa!"...

The room was in heat
Everybody was moving so fast
doing things for the hibernated animal
The creature that will end it all for us

I can smell the stench of hostility that circulated around the kitchen, I can feel my existence being out of place, but still it didn't stop me from eating their food.
So I was sitting there, with mingu and edge, stuffing food in our mouths, food that we didn't get the chance to absorb the taste due to the assumption that we're being abhorred. But wait there's more! A song started to play and spread like a disease around the first floor of the house, the song that will trigger the beginning of the end... The song,"It's my party" by Leslie Gore, only the lyrics were slightly different...

It's my birthday and I'll whine if I want to,
Shout at my mom if I want to,
kick my sister's friends out of the house if I want to,


...Something like that...

Oh yes, we were repelled by the creature's peculiar roar, fear arose and caused tears to flood,our hearts were palpitating(I'm just exaggerating, hehehe! Pero somehow, ganun nafeel ko). The burst of emotions were not only caused by the creature's screech, but also because the idea of "nevergoingbacktomingu's" is beginning to materialize.

Mingu's house has been our second home ever since the kada was founded. Maybe that's the reason why the "incident" happened, it's because we got too relaxed at a home that is not ours in the first place, and the hibernated animal(Although we're not doing anything to him), has been the sign to evict ourselves from the place that's wrong for us right from the beginning(pero sabi nga ni norbex,"how can it be so wrong if it feels so right"

It was the end of it as we know it...


Many things have been smacked right in front of my face before, but this was different, and it will surely be remembered for a long time.


LESSON LEARNED:
There is no place like home
for in other homes, you'll never be welcomed by everybody
(Pero minsan kahit sa sarili mong bahay, di ka rin welcome diba? WA! Siguro wala akong natutunan, natrauma lang talaga ako!)


Well, as I always say,
Things will never be the same again...


Anyway, I'll be packing my bags tonight for I am going to Puerto Galera tomorrow morning! Wohoo! Beat that!
