CHAPTER 28

Rod's POV
I woke up because of mom. She's knocking the door ng napakalakas so I got up and open it then lay on my bed again. I checked the clock and it's already 8am na pala. Well, wala naman akong trabaho ngayon so okay lang na humiga ako maghapon. As mom entered my room, she walk towards me then crossed her arms so I speak up.

Rod: Good morning mom (then smile but still laying on his bed)

Emilia: Bakit kulang na naman yung mga bulaklak ng rosas ko doon Roderick?

As mom ask me, I got up then gave her a hug. Because I remember hindi na nga pala ako nakakapagpaalam sa kanya since started giving Imee some roses again. Weww! She's the one who pick some flowers kasi before.

Rod: Ang aga aga galit ang mommy ko (then laugh)

Emilia: Eh paano, nabilang ko yun bago ako umalis kahapon (then pulled out from the hug)

Rod: Sorry na po.

Emilia: Sorry? So ikaw na naman may salarin?

Rod: Y-yah (then do the peace sign)

Emilia: Sabi ko na eh! (Then frown)

Rod: Pero don't worry mom, yung future daughter-in-law niyo naman po ulit nakakatanggap nun eh (then smile)

Emilia: Daughter-in-law? Si Lizzy?

Rod: Ahuh!

Emilia: Ah akala ko ka— Bakit naman kasi hindi mo sinabi agad?! By the way, kamusta na kayo?

Rod: Ahm, okay naman po mom.

Emilia: Wait, may trabaho ba siya ngayon? Weekend ngayon ah.

Rod: Wala? I-I don't know mom.

Emilia: Bakit patanong? Bakit hindi ka sigurado? Tawagan mo kaya.

Rod: Baka busy mom, mamaya na po.

Emilia: Subukan mo lang! Sige na anak. Gusto ko din makita kung paano kayo ulit mag-usap eh. Don't tell her na nandito ako ha! Goooo.

Rod: Mamaya na mommy.

Emilia: Ngayon na!

Rod: Hindi pa ako nakahilamos mom, kakagising ko nga lang eh.

Emilia: Edi maghilamos ka na. Sige na! Kasi alam mo anak, I was thinking kung hindi busy ngayon, maybe you can invite her dito sa bahay. You know, have some lunch lang and para na din makapag-usap kami about sa girl thingy!

While mom tell those words, she keep on pushing me papunta sa bathroom. Well, that's a good idea naman talaga pero paano kung busy nga? Paano kung nasa hospital ulit siya? But on the other hand tama naman si mom, weekend ngayon so there's a chance na hindi siya busy. Pero paano kung kasama niya sina tito at tita? Hayst! I just shook my head then do my morning routine na then go downstairs. While walking I saw dad sitting at the veranda so I walk towards him.
