Beinte.


I was waiting for 4:50am. Exact time of my arrival.

4:50am.

At last. 20 years. I was looking at my twin brother. Appearance-wise, he is much bulkier than I am. Bigger frame, and I was the lean version. He has those chinky eyes. I was looking at him. The bunso. And I was the kuya. I am. For just over 10 minutes. That fleeting moment. I am 20. He is 19. 5:00am is yours. Mine is 4:50am.

4:51am.

uh. one-minute has passed.

Umikot ako sa bahay. Uh. The now so common humid air. Plus my aching oral cavity. My tongue. My palate. What a way to start the biiiiirthday.

4:52am.

I checked the phone. 15 messages received. Hah. Well-wishers. Birthday greetings. Im at a loss. Wow. Having the phone fixed way earlier really paid off. May mga bumati.
