"Albie?" Tawag ni kuya Achie Kay Kuya Albie.
"Hmm?" Sagot nito.
"I thinks it's better na papasok ka ng Academy ngayon para maaga kang matapos. I can give a recommendation to Frieda Knights Academy para makapasok ka agad." Sabi niya kay kuya Albie.
"We already talk about this, bro. Ayoko pang pumasok this year." Sagot ni kuya Albie.
"Sayang kasi ang isang taon, Albie. Advantage din naman kung papasok ka ng maaga. You can graduate early." Seryosong sabi ni kuya Achie sa kanya.
"Your older brother is right, Albie. Kung inaalala mo naman ai Alora, nandito naman ako para alagaan siya. And also, I know that your sister can manage especially now na nakakakita na siya." Sabi ni daddy sa kanya. Nilingon naman ako ni kuya Albie at tiningnan ako na nagpapaawa.
"What?" Tanong ko sa kanya. Agad naman itong napasimangot. Napailing na lang ako at lihim na napahagikhik.
"Well, they have a point, kuya Albie. I think it's better for you to go to the Academy this year. Madali lang naman ang 4 years. After you graduated, kung ayaw mo pang magtrabaho as knight, then you can help me po with my business. Balak ko din po kasing magtayo ng business 4 to 5 years from now." Sabi ko sa kanya. Natahimik naman ito at napabuntong hininga.
"Fine." Sagot nito.
"Alright. I'll prepare your papers when we got home." Sabi ni kuya Achie sa kanya. Napasimangot naman si kuya Albie.
"Don't worry kuya Albie. I'll try to visit you when you're in the Academy and I'll send you your favorite foods too." Sabi ko sa kanya.
"Sabi mo yan ha, bunso. "
"Yeah, I'll promise. Maybe bibisita kami ni daddy doon once a month, right dad?"
"Yeah." Nakangiti sagot ni daddy.
"Promise po, dad." Sabi ni kuya Albie kay daddy.
"Promise." Sagot naman ni daddy.
"By the way, I decided na simulan ko ng magpatayo ng bahay dito." Sabi ni daddy saamin.
"What do you mean, dad?" Tanong ni kuya Albie sa kanya.
"I think it's time for me to fulfill my promise to your mom na dito titira kapag malaki na kayo at dito na rin tatanda." Nakangiting sabi ni daddy. Mas nauna pang tinupad ng mommy niyo yung pangako niya kaysa saakin. Malungkot nitong sabi.
"I'm sure mom will understand dad." Sabi ni kuya Achie sa kanya.
"I know. It's just that I feel that I disappoint her. Matagal na kasi itong pangarap namin at hanggang ngayon, hindi ko pa natutupad." Sabi niya saamin.
"Well, I'm sure, mom doesn't think like that. Kung nandito nga lang si mommy ngayon, I'm sure she's more proud of you, dad." Sagot ni kuya Albie sa kanya.
"I agree po, daddy." Sabi ko.
"Right. As long as I didn't forget and I'm still going to fulfill it then I'm sure Luciana will understand." Sabi niya saamin.
"Yeah." Sagot ni kuya Albie. Napatango naman kaming dalawa ni kuya Achie.
"So kailan niyo po balak magpatayo ng bahay dito, dad?" Tanong ni kuya Albie
"Before this year end." Sagot Naman ni daddy.
"Why don't you asked Alora to help you about the design dad, I'm sure she's capable on doing it." Sabi ni kuya Achie.
"Yeah. She's really good at this too." Sabi naman ni kuya Albie.
"Well, yeah. Kung papayag siya." Sabi ni daddy. Sabay naman silang tumingin saakin.
