Truth be told, the main reason why I found myself dragging my feet off to the busy streets of Taft was because I wanted to see you. I didn't go there because I missed my friends, nor did I visit because I had academic obligations. This morning, I pushed my body to my limits in high hopes that I would at least catch a glimpse of your face. I hurriedly took a bath, rushed to the bus stop and prayed to the heavens for at least a chance to see you.

As the hours flew by, I grew more and more confident that the fates would be kind and allow me to meet with you this fateful day. I was never patient, but I did my best. Though I had no assurance or whatsoever, I waited and waited and waited even until I realized that you would never come. I found myself hanging on to the sliver of hope that I would see you before the world before me spins uncontrollably.

All I wanted was to see a smile from your pretty, little face because I'm sure your smiles are more comforting than any holiday.
