I Wish I Never Woke Up (Sandro Marcos FF)

Ep. 56: Draining November

November 3, 2021

I started the month of November without my family and without the love of my life, Sandro. It was very draining and frustrating noong mga unang weeks na wala sila. Syempre, nasanay ako na they are always with me whenever i woke up on the bed. Pero it's not how it flows since the day they left. I wonder how Sandro's day was going when i'm not with him. Hihi. Mamimiss ako nun panigurado. Pero anyway, i started my day as i woke up on Sandro's bed. Nandito pa kasi ako sakanilang townhouse dito sa Baguio. Balak kong umuwi na next week dahil sinabi saakin ni tita Liza na i should take a rest daw muna dito sakanilang bahay. Sweet diba? I fixed the bed and immediately went downstairs. I saw pops preparing my breakfast. Nakakahiya, hindi ako sanay. Usually kasi mas sanay akong si tita Liza ang gumagawa ng breakfast for me pero today pops told me na wala naman raw syang agendas for today so why not to try to cook for his future daughter in law. Kingina, nakakakilig. Hindi ko nga rin pala naabutan sila tita Liza rito dahil maaga silang umalis ni Vinny. Haha. Mommy's boy talaga. Si Simon naman ay sinamahan itong bff kong si Anne mag grocery. Sana all. Kaya kaming dalawa lang talaga ni pops ang naiwan rito sakanilang townhouse. This is also a good thing considering na bibihira nalang kami makapag usap nang matagalan talaga since he was so busy and has hectic schedules almost everyday. Ikaw ba naman magkaroon ng father in law na presidente ng pilipinas. Charot. Soon palang.

"So iha, have you already talked to Sandro?" Pops spoke, breaking the silence between us.

"Hmm.. Yes, tito. Sandro texted me as the time he got there." I replied pertaining to Ilocos Norte.

Pops nodded as he's focusing eating.

"Eh kayo po? Inupdate nya po ba kayo?" I shyly asked.

Pops replied. "Yes, iha. Actually we saw each other via video chat but it happened a minute only because it was on his cousin's account."

"Oh, si Gov. Mat po?" I grinned.

"Yup. Sandro's favorite enemy."

I chuckled, "Nakwento nga rin po saakin yan ni Sandro. Kung paano po sila mag asaran noong pinsan nya na iyon ay akala mong hindi politician eh." I joked.

Pops chuckled with me, "Right, iha. They we're always teasing each other but si Sandro ang always pikon ever since." Pops replied realtalk. Enough for me to burst into laugh.

"So.. Anyway, iha. Son told me na dito ka raw mag cecelebrate ng Christmas and New Year?" Pops spoke, changing the topic.

I pressed my lips and nodded, "Opo sana."

"Anong sana? You are really supposed to celebrate Christmas and New Year with us iha." Tita Liza spoke from the back as she walks entering the house. She was with Vinny pero naiwan sya sa labas nung time na yon kaya si tita Liza lang muna ang pumasok.

I stood up and went to tita Liza's direction. "Ay, anjan na po pala kayo. Mano po." I ordered. Pops stood up as well and followed me as he kissed tita Liza on her cheeks. And that made me miss Sandro even more. I miss his uncountable kiss on every corner of my face.

"Janna, anak. Don't hesitate to call us everytime you feel alone, okay? We're always here lang naman." Tita Liza told me as she sat on the chair beside pops.

Pops added something, "Yeah your tita Liza is right. Despite of our busy schedules, we'll always find time for you if we need to."

I politely bow my head on them, "Thank you po nang marami, pops and tita Liza."

Tita Liza widen her eyes and clapped like a toddler pointing at me, "Darling look. Have you heared what did Janna said?"

"What is it?" Pops asked curiously.
