February 13 , 2017 , Another day to start right . Hearing my mother's wake up call every morning is a blessing. Blessing because someone never forgot to know my existence by just hearing the noise coming from my bed sheet when I'm changing my sleeping position. My mom knows when I'm already awake is when she started to hear light footsteps going to my c.r. and then from the restroom the door started to make noise - confirm I'm already starting my day late. Late because my room started to smell like fried fish, that smell that coming from the kitchen downstairs and crawled up to my room. After lunch, I went to our garden and from the point I started to lay my fingers closing our doorknob, I can already feel the cold breeze. It made me shiver and wanted to go back inside the house to get my jacket and lessen my body temperature from the cold breeze outside.
Outside, nobody make any noise. Not even a whisper , light laugh , or a name - calling sound. I can tell that it was because of the cold breeze that everyone in my entire neighborhood seem to stay inside of their house. During that time I started to reminisce the moment when my mother told me how my grandmother used to made them hot chocolate when there we're young during Christmas. This cold atmosphere, it was like the Christmas is near approaching even though it was just February.
I ended this day by just eating a sumptuous meal with my family. It makes my heart flutter. A day before valentines with my loving parents , with the delicious smelling foods on our table , and the cold breeze outside , I will never forget this day and treasure this memory forever.
