monarc butterfly

The year was 1998, as far as I can remember I was in fourth year high school.

One night in June ay sige ang alulong ng aso and because of that I can’t sleep, habang ang utol ko ay tulog na tulog sa kama niya ay biglaang umalulong ang aso and this time ay nagpatidig ang mga balahibo ko sa katawan. It was very distinct it seems that sinasapian ang aso habang parang kumakanta; It seems human like, it seems sinasapian ang aso. I’m not a scardy cat ako yung tipong taong mahilig manakot at most likely magpull off ng prank, as they know me, the original prankster. Agad kong binuhat ang kutson at nagtungo sa kuwarto ni mother.

Month of June nangyari ang incident na ito, I can't remember the exact day. Namatay ang lola ko sa father's side sa birthday ng tatay ko kaya extra memorable ang araw na ito and as far as I can remember na on or before this date ay laging may brown butterfly na dumadapo sa picture ni lola na nakadisplay sa sala nanin at ang piture na ito ay noong dalaga pa siya.

The butterfly which is brown or possibly a moth resemble the likes of that of a Monarc butterfly.

I am not assuming na paranormal activity ito, marahil nagkakataon lang.

Who really knew, Im not really psychic.

Ako at si utol ay masasabi kong least favorite ni lola, kasi kami ang poorest at nakikitira lang kami and for whatever reasons pa, I was really too young to think about it.Specially me, I have this funny feeling that she really hated me for I am different if you know what I mean. I remember noong binabaon na siya sa lupa, I tried hard to cry, I coud not feel a thing. When everyone is crying hard, I am struggling to cry. No tears. Thank goodness that everyone was too busy crying that they didn’t noticed me, at that point it was really hard to fake it. Bata palang ako ay natuto nakong maging bato sa mga taong hindi nakakaintindi at nakaka-appreciate sa akin.

  1. Ganoon din ang sabi sa amin noong bata kami na pag may nakikita na paru-paro,di umano ito ay ang yumao naming kamag-anak. Eh pagpumupunta kami ng probinsya kung saan doon may namatayan kaming kamag-anak nagpapakita yung paru-paro sabi sa amin binibisita kami. Kinakamusta. Nakakatakot nga noong una,pero hanggang sa nakasanayan na :)
