Before the Rain Falls

Intro:

ALEEZA ZINN DEOGARCIA

“Every dream has an inspiration and you need to determine by reaching those, how could you reach them? how could you change your family status by doing nothing, by promising but you don’t even do even the single plan to reach them, to reach your dreams, dreams … is like a star too high for you to reach but you can reach your dream even though you can’t reach the star in the sky, there are many stars in the sky just like your dream they are too many but like stars, they are too many as I said that means they are too many plans that you can start, you will fail because there is no success if you don’t fail, but even if you fail and feel tired don’t stop dreaming, just rest and start a new plan in succeeding them, stop until you reach your dream.

Don’t forget to remember the failures so that you’ll be a determined one to continue, don’t let the failure down you, let the failure gives you a lesson for you to continue, reach your stars, that’s all this is aleeza Zinn deogarcia, graduated in bachelor science in civil engineering … and this is the beginning of reaching my star.

Thank you.”

I speak and all of them clap their hands, I look at my parents who’s almost cry I smile at them and mouthed I already graduated!

After graduation we go home, we live in the province but here in the province life is fresh the air is fresh because I’m waiting for my examination I decided to help my parents on a farm, I always want to help them, and I am always proud that my parents are a farmer because this farm because their job is to feed the people and because of their job I have done in schooling

“Momma! Come on I already cook our lunch let’s eat first!” I said with a glee

“Sarah! You’re so lucky with your daughter, aleeza is pretty I guess soon she will marry a billionaire one.” My momma friend said and mom laughs

“My daughter has no plans for that; she will help her sibling Anna and Arra to finish their school.” Mom defends me she is … I need to help the two of my siblings to finish their school Anna and arra are now schooling in a public school in town as a grade 10 students, and the both of them completed their junior high with a great excellence ,

” aleeza! We are coming home, papa is now at house he’s waiting for us.” Anna said so; I and momma come home,

I cook adobong manok as our lunch we happily eat together and as we finish our lunch momma and papa go back at the farm while Anna and arra are washing dishes while I’m cleaning the dining area.

“Where the two of you are want to enrolling in next school year.” I ask the both of them

“I think in the same school also, they have a STEM strand there so, I think we should still enroll there.” Anna answers my question

“Yes, ate aleeza, Anna is right and also we can save a money it’s because the tuition fee is cheap.” Arra continues

“I promise the both of you can reach your stars soon.” I said to them with a smile

As we finished cleaning our house we bring food to our parents and we decide to help them too…

We are planting rice and some vegetables like carrots, potatoes and onions too...

I always thinking of these all the time I need to help my family but it’s so tiring to wait the exam and I need to pay for the examination I must work , yeah I need to work but I don’t know where and I don’t know how to tell my parents

I always praying for me to gain a strong confidence to tell my parents and I think that this night is the right time for me to tell this …

It’s already 6: 30 in the evening we are in the dinner, and I’m planning to tell them my plan

“I notice that you’ve seem to tense, aleeza.” My momma said so I take a deep breath and ready my self

“I will find the job in manila.” I said directly, direct to the point without wasting time.

“Of course you can but remember that you need to help your siblings.” My father said so I breathe with a smile.

“Are you sure? Are seriously papa?” I ask them, coz I can’t believe that they will allow me
