Episode XIV: Squeezing Hands and Seizing Memories

[x_boyfriend]

I went out again last night. Just as with the night before, and the night before that.

“I thought you’d be staying home tonight,” my mom told me, as I buttoned up my polo. I told her that I said no such thing, and that I’d be home earlier than usual.

“So when will that be?” she asked

My heart goes tug, tug. They love their little liars though. :)

You write beautifully and this post reminds me of my relationship with my parents. I hope you don't mind that I've added you to my Friends list. I'd love to read more of your writing. =o)

now this entry, i can "safely" comment on. hehe... :p

zig, i think what you've written about is something universal. in all relationships amongst all peoples no matter what their personality or status or whatever, there are moments of closeness and there are falling out times. and it's especially prevalent sa parent-son/daughters. but, what's important is that we realize it, go back, and exert an effort sa relationship. you've done that. you're doing this. that night you were beside your sleeping mom and this blog entry says it all. in that regard, i'm happy for you. :)

as always, good writing. keep it up! see ya around! :)

man, rachelle, na-touch naman ako sa sinabi mo. i guess it's the seniors syndrome kicking in. damn the graduating life.

[x_boyfriend]

i guess bitterness does transcend blood. haha ;).

[nixc]

hey hey. i'm not bitter. just apathetic.

this made me cry...

sometimes we tend to take our mom(s) for granted... but in the end, she's someone who will love us even if we do, and will always take us back even if we do... and especially when no one else will...

i miss my mom.
