Aestelle:

Yes, love?

Stupid.

War:

HAHAHAHAHAHA

Are you busy?

Aestelle:

Not so much.

Why?

War:

Nothing.

Hahaha!

Aestelle:

Is there a problem?

Even though I am stupid in Calculus I can count on something else ?

Ano, if you want someone to talk to, I'm here.

The same way you've been supporting me all this time ?

War:

Bait naman bebe ko ?

Hahahahaha.

De.

I'm just frustrated. Lol.

Aestelle:

About?

War:

I met my parents a while ago. As usual. Fight again.

You know.

When I was little, I was really hooked on volleyball. Yvanntot and I.

My parents were both achievers that's why they expect me to be just like them. They don't like me

playing volleyball. I was not blessed there. They want me to focus on acads.

But you know that, volleyball is my dream.

It was as if when it was removed from me, it was as if my wing had been cut off.

Not being able to do anything to reach my dreams just because they don't want my dream ... that

sucks.

I don't want that.

So I try to show that I can do the same. I can excel both in acads and in volleyball.

I'm not a genius, Aestelle.

Maybe I just work harder than the rest? Because many want to prove themselves and the people

around me. Many want to prove to people who say I can not achieve what I want.

My parents, they would always belittle me every time I'm losing against Ulysses.

What is the use of volleyball if you always lose lol

I spent countless nights practicing. I worked hard to improve, hoping that this time it will be different.

But I guess I was wrong.

It's just tiring to be strong.

All the hard work, all those sleepless nights, it felt like I wasted it all.

Aestelle:

Hey are you stupid ?!

War:

Awit hahaha

Aestelle:

I mean, you are so good so! I watched you play against our team, right? I've seen how you play, how

you cheer your team, how you encourage them, how your playstyle matched them so they could be the

best they can be.

I don't know about your parents but I believe that you are doing fine.

You say it's okay to lose?

I will say back what you told me, Sto. Thomas.

Fuck them.

Reach your dreams.

Play to your hearts content.

That's your life.

The only one who can run your life is you alone.

You are the captain of your ship.

LIVE IT THE WAY YOU WANT IT TO.

Your parents decision matters, yes, but sometimes, you have to consider your own dreams as well.

Rarely do people find their dreams.

Don't waste it.

War, you are different from that Ulysses. Sometimes it may feel like you are being blocked but

remember, you can still fly higher. Jump higher.

Ikaw pa ba eh lods master kita ?

War:

Aestelle:

War:

Aestelle:

War:

It's different when it comes from other people.

Delicious to the ears.

I feel like I can beat Ulysses, just like that. HAHAHAHAH

Aestelle:

HAHAHAHAHA siraulo.

Wait I'm out.

War:

Ge lang, love.
