#6 Somewhere With Someone

...the last thing I remembered I was at was inside my room, sweetly smiling at the oblivious nowhere outside my window as I listened to his harmonious voice on the phone.

Everything happened unexpectedly fast that at an instant, I was already sitting on the leather passenger seat of his masculine-scented Innova car and he drove us around unfamiliar places. I recognized few of the roads we passed until he masterfully rounded his car and up in a dim-lighted and spiral driveway have we went.

I did not really perceived the place right but although it was not well-illuminated, I appreciated the open atmosphere its surrounding had gave. I delightfully complimented the place and boisteriously had I delivered my admiration of it that my amplified voice overlapped the pop music that has been filling in the little intervals of silence that would awkwardly stretch in between us.

The funny and inexplicably romantic part of our journey to a place I have not known yet until that time was when both of his hands were on his steering wheel, he was still seated on the driver's seat, his mind and soul was still in him but, but the way he looked at me like I'm that beautiful girl he barely sees just made me hold my breath at that particular moment. I even whispered to myself after having behaved that my sudden exclamation and mindless decision to gaze at him was a bad idea. Very.

Fortunately, he finally parked the car on a free lot and so I quickly opened the door and got out. But whoa, I did not expect to see such secluded place in a city that is just as peaceful and mind-calming as it was. There were no less than seven eight-footed light posts that stood at every possible corner of a circular place which the wet green bushes had formed. Benches were intelligently scattered at locations where the view would be amazing especially when it is on top of a hill maybe, and I would dare say that it is a good place for lovers to date exclusively or where private talks can be made during cold evenings as that.

We sat at one of the benches where we would be facing a whitewashed building and exchanged arbitrary questions to each other. It was not long after we arrived that the grey-clouded sky offered an ice-cold bath of raindrops to pour on us. And so, due to the weather, we have had decided to leave the area.

#5 Suhi

Suhi is the first theatrical play I have ever seen. It was a privilege for me to witness such great and mindblowing performance with a very interesting storyline that will always doubtessly catch anyone's attention besides their stage background and effects.

I dare say that being there was indeed a cost in behalf of my being a student but on the big picture, it was worthy than expected.

The storyline started in the middle of an empirical chaos, may sound superb but that is what it is for me, which the play's main or focused tribe was at the peak of their defeat due to the lack of number of soldiers set in the frontline, ready for defense anytime.

What made the story fascinating was that at the moment they were amidst the chaotic situation they were in, it so happened that that was the only point all of the other conflicts arose: conflicts that they had buried ignored for a long time beforehand.

It honestly tickled my curiosity of how will they put a closure to their problem - also one reason why I kind of got excited of how it will end - when they were all confronting as of to who kept and where was their tribe's successor. Although I already knew who the next throne-seater was, having been informed days before the play, the details of how he will be acknowledged kept me hanging.

At the end, after the rightful blue blood has been known, I was taken aback to see that his mother and at the same time his wife, has committed suicide due to the revelation. That was for me, truthfully unexpected. I could not conclude anything else for the reason of her deed but that it was because of the unacceptance of the great shocking enlightenment she had received.

Overall, I had a great time anticipating and appreciating the play.
