Letters for Mama

Dear Mama,

It had been a while since I wrote to you. Consecutive matters are keeping my hands busy.

Last Tuesday, I, together w a few of my friends went to visit you. I’ve been wanting to go there since forever but cheerleading practices are impeding me to do so when I got that chance, I promptly embraced it. I bought white roses & placed it in your tomb. I took a short moment to talk to you & pray before leaving. I really miss you Mama. There was this one time, about two weeks ago when I just abruptly broke into tears after Religion period at school. My teacher was discussing about giving importance to your parents while you still have them. He even made me as his example. I guess it all just came bursting out & I cried hysterically after that. I never thought that point will come some time or another. I always forget all the glum when I’m in school. Friends surrounding me replace all those w glee but that time, everything just went bleak.

Today, Lola, Tita & went to the bank to transfer everything under my name. It pains me. It really does…being slapped by the realization yet again that you’re gone.
