MEETING UP
It's another day blessing that God give me, as I woke up and do my daily routine every morning like freshen up myself and go downstair. I literally intended to wake up this early morning just to talk to my parents.
"Good morning mom. " dumeretso ako papunta kay mommy at hinalikan siya sa pisngi , pagkatapos ay pumunta ako kay daddy and I did the same. "Good morning too dad." I greeted them cheerfully and go to my seat.
Pero nananatili sa akin ang paningin nila na naninibago, well hindi ko rin naman sila masisisi kasi kadalasan kapag walang pasok ay lagi akong late kung gumising. I usually waking up around 10 a.m. kaya alam kong nanini -bago sila sa akin.
"What??" and look at them pero nag iwas lang sila ng tingin.
"You got up early today. What's with you?" mom ask me with confusion
"Well I just want you to have breakfast together" and smiled at them
"It's good that you went up early. Gusto ko lang sabihin sa iyo na bukas na kayo aalis ni manang pa uwi sa probinsya." Dad said seriously
"Ok fine." and I started eating
They stared at me both with disbelief, wondering why I didn't even protest with what they say.
" You're not going to protest " Mom shockingly ask
"Kung mag sa salita po ba ako may mababago ba sa desisyon niyo ni daddy? there's nothing right, so I decided to just try to enjoy this punishment of yours para hindi naman po ako ma bored. I will just look for the positive side instead of sulking around."
"That is good, marami kang matututunan pag dating mo doon, and I know that you will enjoy it. masarap magbakasyon sa probinsya kesa sa siyudad." Dad said
"Yeah...That's correct. You will only hear the chirping of birds and other animals instead of honking horns and the noise of the cars and you will breath fresh air instead of the smoky air In the city" Mom said na para bang may na aalala siya
We continue eating our breakfast ng ma alala ko ang sadya ko
"uhmm..Mom..Dad.." I try to get their attention at hindi namn ako nabigo
" Yes sweetheart?" Dad ask
" I just wanna let you know that I will be leaving with my friends today. I would like to talk to them before I leave. Please mom, dad."
"Ok fine, you can go but know your limitation and make sure na before 8 p.m. kailangan nandito kana para sabay sabay tayo mag dinner."
"Yes mom, I understand. Magkikita kita lang naman po kami sa mall ng mga friends ko and there's nothing more, maybe gagala na rin po and mag bobonding but I assure you na I'll be here before 8."
After we ate our breakfast bumalik ako ng kwarto para makapag ayos at nag chat na rin ako sa group chat naming mag kakaibigan na papunta na ako
-MALL-
I already arrive here at the mall but I can't see any of them.
"Hello ate Gem, I am already here at mall. Nasaan na kayo?"
["Malapit na ako sa mall Janna, I'm sorry medyo traffic lang. Tinawagan ko na rin yung iba but mukhang mahuhuli yung mga yon. You know naman na mababagal kumilos ang mga yon."]
"Alright, I'll waut for you sa Sweet Better Café sa usual spot natin"
["Ok bye]"
"Bye, take care."
Pumasok ako sa Cafe at dumeretso papuntang counter para om-order
"I would like to have a two serve of Mango Cheese Cake and one large size of White Chocolate Mocha Frappuccino and Double Chocolaty Chip Crème Frappuccino please."
"That would be 525 pesos ma'am" Inabot ko sa kanya ang credit card ko at pumunta na sa usual seat ko habang dala ang inorder. While waiting I am enjoying my stay here at Cafe, sobrang relaxing kasi ng ambiance ng café na ito kaya naging paborito rin namin itong magkakaibigan kapag lumalabas kami para mag bonding.
Not too long ng dumating na rin si ate Gem.
" Sorry Janna, na ipit kasi ako sa traffic malapit dito kaya natagalan." She apologize
" That's fine ate, atleast may kasama na ako. Sit down ate, inorderan na rin kita ate."
"Thank you so, how are you?" She ask me worriedly "I am totally fine ate."
Pero tinitigan niya lamang ako na para bang inaalam kung nag sasabi ako ng totoo
"Seriously ate ok lang ako, well except the fact na aalis ako. Yun lang naman ang pi-no-problema ko at wala na dahil inalis na nila mom and dad yung iba ko pang punishment ang itinira na lang nila ay itong pag sama ko kay manang sa province nila."
"You know what Janna maybe you can give It a try, like what I said kahapon wala namang mawawala kung susubukan mo di ba? Malay mo mag enjoy ka pa sa higit na ina-akala mo"
Na isip ko na rin yang sinabi ni ate Gem and I just can't imagine myself enjoying at that province kung na iisip ko na puro putik doon. I hate the feeling na naglalakad sa putik. Actually, wala naman talagang issue sa akin sa mga maputik na lugar dati, not until bumisita kami sa isang farm dati nila daddy and as we walk around nadulas ako and worst sa poop pa ng hayop ako nadulas at marami pang nakakitang tao kaya simula noon hindi na ako sumasama kila daddy sa pag bisita sa farm.
Alam niyo yung feeling na kapag napahiya ka hinding hindi mawawala yun sa isip mo at mananatiling nakatatak at hindi mo makakalimutan na parang nagka trauma ka sa maliit na bagay na yun. Kung para sa iba maliit na bagay lang yun pero sa akin big deal yun at pakiramdam ko kapag na ulit yun ay wala na akong mukhang maihaharap sa iba.
"I'll try ate."
"By the way, na saan na ba sila? Akala ko ba malapit ma sila." tanong ni ate Gem habang lumilingon sa kaliwa't kanan
"They text me. Nasa parking lot na raw sila ng mall papunta na rito"
We are talking about some random things when our other friend's arrive at the moment
"Hello guys! How are you two?" Ella ask when they go near us
"What's with this sudden meeting? biglaan ha!" Bettina said while eating our food
"Hey that's my food bakit hindi ka mag order ng sayo!" I blurted out kasi inu-ubos na nila yung food namin nila ate Gem
"Matagal pa bago dumating yung order, eh hindi niyo naman kinakain yung food niyo" as usual palagi naman nilang ginagawa yan.
We are that close to each other. We are comfortable to do such things since parang mag kapatid na ang turingan namin.
"Well we just want to bonding with each other bago umalis si Janna"
Tumingin ako kay ate Gem before looking at the two na mukhang mga naka kita ng multo sa pag ka gulat.
"WHAT!" As expected
