Rumi's Point of view

"Temporarily change the last name you will use while you are there." She said while my belongings were being brought inside the private plane that I will use.

"Im going to use random Surnames? Can i just use grandma's last name?" Umiling ito.

"You can't Rumi, are you forgetting who your grandma is?"

"Okay, I understand, what about my name?will I change it or no?"

"You dont need to change your name, just use your second name, Eizly."

"La Nueba University is not easy to find, it is not even known by ordinary people, only those with wealth and connections are able to enter there." She also said that its a dorm school, kaya hindi na ako mamomroblema kung saan ako titira.

"Who owned it?" I ask out of curiosity.

"I don't know who owns that school but I know who's managing it." Aniya. "Kailangan mo ng umalis Rumi nang sagayon ay madali kaagad ang byahe mo. Pagkarating mo sa Pilipinas ay may nakasalubong na sa labas ng Airlines para sunduin ka."

"Make sure to visit me there, okay?" Para akong bata na naninigurado.

"Im busy right now Rumi, when I have free time I will come to visit you." She gave me a kiss in my forehead before I got on the plane.

Napabuntong hininga na lamang ako ng makapasok ako sa loob, dumungaw ako sa bintana, wala na sya sa kinatatayuan nya kanina. Bakala umalis na ito.

Pabagsak akong umupo sa upuan. Hindi ko alam kung paano ako napapayag na bumalik sa pilipinas. Sa pagkakaalam ko ay sila mismo ang nagbawal sa akin na bumalik doon but look at now sila mismo ang nagpadala sakin.

Dahil maya maya pa naman aalis ay napagdesisyunan kong buksan ang Twitter account ko, at doon bumungad saakin ang isang post ng babae. Tadeo?

Napataas ang kilay ko, Tadeo is not familiar to me, Dela Cuesta huh? I've never heard his name before.

Hmm I think he is the son of uncle Thiago, I remember how my uncle and I used to know each other before, he visited us while he's on business trip. His eye's are amber. Same as Tadeo. And there I remembered uncle is looking for his son. This boy is hard headed. A ran away son.

Ramdam ko na ang bigat ng talukap ng mata ko kaya't napagpasyahan ko munang matulog.

"Ladies and gentlemen, Dela Cuesta Airlines welcomes you to Manila City. The local time is 3 AM. For your safety and the safety of those around you, please remain seated with your seat belt fastened and keep the aisles clear until we are parked at the gate"

Napatingin ako sa bintana, nakaland na ang eroplano at pinapark na lamang.

Nagayos na ako ng sarili ko bago tumayo. Paglabas sa eroplano ay umihip ang hangin kaya't napayakap ako sa sarili ko, nakalimutan kong ilabas ang sweater ko kanina.
Ang bagahe ay binababa pa lang, kukunin ko ito na lang ito bago lumabas.

Umupo muna ako sa isang bench, hinihintay ang reply nya. May nakaagaw ng pansin ko, isang lalaki na nakaupo sa kabilang bench. He's covering his face. Wearing shades and a mask. Is he sick?
