HER LAST LETTER FOR ME [COMPLETED]

CHAPTER 3

ELLIE

Nagising ako sa ingay ng nagpapatugtog sa baba I don't know the song but I know it's a heavy metal rock. Dito na kasi ko pinatulog ni Tita Sarah sa bagong magiging bahay namin.

"Oh hi good morning Elise" This girl She's the daughter of Tita Sarah.

"It's Ellie not Elise" Dumiretso na ko sa may kusina to make a tea. Nang bigla kong maalala wala nga palang tea dito.

Gusto ko sanang bumalik sa kwarto ko just to take another nap but I can't sleep with this kind of noise here. Then I notice the beautiful garden outside. Pagkaapak ko palang dito sobrang tahimik at kalmado. I think I found my favorite place here well pangalawa lang una yung kwarto ko.

"Good morning." Napatingin ako sa nagsalita. Her eyes again. Naalala ko yung nangyari kahapon the first time that I saw her, the first time that I felt that I'm connected with someone to a stranger who is not a stranger for me at all, the silence between us it's so comfortable I didn't feel the awkwardeness.

"Good morning." Ang balik kong bati sakanya.

"You want tea?" I take a gulp yes! Finally!

"Sure." Umupo ako sa upuan sa tapat niya while she's preparing for my tea.

"Why do you have that?" Ang naging tanong ko lang na curious kasi ko.

"Tita Sarah knows that I love to drink Tea. Here." Nilapag na niya yung tea. As I take a sip on it.

"A perfect tea for morning. You like the Black tea too?" I don't know I feel really interested in her.

"Well black tea is my morning tea but may natikman akong tea na kahit kailan hindi ko makakalimutan. Yung Dandelion Tea." Woah.

"Really? I like that too the slight taste of coffee and a slight of floral taste." Ang nasabi ko sabay higop sa tea.

"Marami kang alam na tungkol sa tea?" This is the first time that I met someone na pede kong kausapin bilang ako.

"Hindi naman but may kaibigan ako na mahilig sa tea si Mr.Yamamoto he own a cafe. Sakanya ko natutunan ang iba't ibang klase ng tea." She just nod her head then a comfortable silence atmosphere again. I just close my eyes to relax mabuti na lang at hindi dito rinig yung pinapatugotg ni Cici.

"Good morning girls sorry naistorbo ko ba kayo?" Napadilat ako at napatingin kay Tita Sarah.

"Nag breakfast na ba kayo?" Yes I forgot about the breakfast.

"Sorry po hindi pa po ako nakakapagluto." Patayo na sana ko ng pigilan ako ni Tita sarah.

"Ano ka ba Ellie okay lang. Mukhang nagkakasundo kayong dalawa sa tea." Napangiti na lang samin si Tita Sarah.

"By the way Ellie nandiyan na yung kotse na dala mo kahapon, do you have you're final decision now? About sa pag stay mo dito?"

"Yes po Tita. Kukuha lang po ako ng ibang gamit ko po sa bahay namin." I admit it ma sakit padin sakin ang lahat.

"About that alam kong ngayon lang kayo dito at medyo malayo ang totoong bahay niyo dito lalo ka na Ellie. My suggestion is kung gusto mo ay sa lumipat ka na lang sa school nila Luna and Cici.

I saw in my peripheral vision that Luna draws a little smile on her lips.

"If that is the best thing to do. It's fine with me tita."

"Good I'll help you para ayusin ang mga kailangan mong ayusin para sa pag transfer mo."

"Ako na po ang bahala, free day ko naman po ngayon aayusin ko na po." Hindi man niya sabihin alam kong busy siya at ayoko ng dumagdag pa.
