CHAPTER 10

Sunday night will always be my family’s night. We get go shopping together until the mall closes or spend the night together or play some board games or just like now, we watched 3 movies since 4pm now and we’re down to the last one. Buti na lang at 10 am pa ang unang klase ko bukas.

“Until what time ang class mo bukas, Maxine?” Mom suddenly asked.

“4, my.” Sagot ko habang hindi inaalis ang tingin sa TV.

“Great. Wag mo na gamitin ang sasakyan mo bukas. Your dad and I will just drop you off to school. Then dad will pick you up after your class so your class so you could be here earlier. Para saktong kasabay nyo na rin si Jemimah pauwi.” Aniya na nakaagaw ng atensyon ko.

“Bakit, my? Anong meron?” Jemimah asked.

“One of my patient’s family just inviTed us for dinner.” Sabi ni daddy. Napataas ang kilay ko.

“But I said, I think it would be better kung dito na lang sila kakain. I’d be glad to cook for them. You know I missed preparing for events other than weddings.” Mom said before eating popcorn.

“Pumayag sila, my?” My sister asked.

“Of course. Kaya nga they will be here tomorrow at 7 pm and I need the both of you to be here right after your class.” Mommy said.

“Formal ba yun, my? What should i wear?” My 15 year old sister asked.

“Casual lang, anak.” Dad said.

I sighed. Looks like we have visitors tomorrow then. I have to cancel my meryenda date with my two bestfriends.

“Ugh, di ako makakasama ngayon ha. I need to be home early. May bisita eh.” Sabi ko sakanila habang nagaayos ako ng mga gamit ko.

“Ay, sakto! May practice din kasi kami for cheerdance eh.” Sagot ni Roxy.

“Looks like bukas na lang tayo magmeryenda?” Faith asked and then after that, we all agreed na bukas na lang nga kami magmeryenda.

I was literally exploring the whole parking lot looking for my car when my phone rang. Ugh, san ba ako nagpark?

I took a few steps more before taking my phone out of my pocket. It’s daddy.

“Dy?” Nagtatakang bati ko kay daddy habang lumilingon lingon at patuloy na naghahanap ng kotse ko. Nasan na yun?

“Maxine, nasaan ka na?” Tanong nya. Nagtataka pa ako nung una but then I remembered na susunduin nga pala nya ako ngayon and I didn’t bring my car. Shit!
