I stare at the TV in our living room, watching the new president, Juanico Enriquez, win the elections. He is now reciting his long speech. Since I can't bear listening to those lies about "making the Philippines better", I turn off the TV and climb upstairs to my room.
I lay down on my bed, facing the ceiling. I look at the clock at my bedside table. Its nine in the evening. Since tomorrow is a school day, I should sleep early to wake up early tomorrow.
I keep on staring at the ceiling and after a while, I begin to close my eyes and drift off to sleep.
I haven't realize that someday, when I close my eyes, I open them again seeing the whole country trapped into the power hungry president's hands......Yet.
