When Love Grows (13)

The pot making was relishing. Lalo na when you hear what you wanted to hear from the person you admire on that particular forte mas ginanahan na tuloy akong gumawa. I'm kind of proud to myself for the progress I'd done. Sa bahay puro lang ako stream sa phone ko. Lumalabas naman ako ng bahay para bumili lang ng gusto kong kainin and I'd end up streaming again on my phone. I barely hang out with my friends kasi I preferred going straight home. Wala akong bagong natututunan.

"Saan ko na ba nilagay 'yun..." I was looking for the brush I needed. I'd like to apply some color on my first ever made little pot.

I put aside the other brushes and empty paint cans. "There you are." Nang makita ko itong nahulog. I tried mixing the colors so that it turned into something different naman. When the green had turned into darker shade ito na ang una kong ipinahid.

This plan had only crossed my mind last night before I fall asleep. Gusto ko ko dark green ang kalalabasan na first coating tapos I'd be thinking more designs like lines, could be color combinations or what so ever after this.

I heard a knock kaya tumigil ako sa ginagawa. I averted my gaze at the door and Soren was there wandering his eyes in corners."Bakla, I'm here!" I said just enough for him to hear me.

He walked towards me. "Ang dami mo naman ganap sa buhay." Maarteng sabi niya at pinanuod ako sa ginagawa ko.

"Wala akong magawa sa bahay. Bakit ka pala nandito?"

"Nag deliver ako ng frozen. May gamit akong trycicle diyan. Ang lakas maka tomboy."

"Dito ka nag deliver?"

"Diyan sa kalapit na barangay ako inutusan kaya binentahan ko na rin Lola mo. May hinahanap rin ako malapit dito ang bahay. Nagpapaubos nalang ako. Kailangan ko ng beauty rest puyat na naman ako."

"Maaga ka na naman nag work?"

"Oo maaga. Kailangan ko pa nga silang bolahin para bumili. Ayaw kasi nila ng baboy dahil diyan sa ASF na 'yan. Kaloka, Te." He said flipping his hair in front almost covering his forehead.

"Maganda ba?" I showed to him.

"Oo?"

"Bakit hindi ka sure?" I frowned at him.

"Charos lang! Ito naman parang mananabunot ulit." I laughed at him. I'm almost done applying. "Ikaw gumawa? Pangiti-ngiti ka pa diyan!" I gave him a dagger look when his push got a bit strong.

Hinila din naman niya ako agad para maka-upo ng maayos. "Ako gumawa. Tinuruan ako ni Kuya Miguel."

He pursed his lips and gently bumped his fist on my shoulder. "Iyong pogi na mukhang masungit nung nakaraan?"

I slowly nodded. "He's not masungit..."

He gasped. "Ang sungit kaya! Parang sisikmurahin ako nun."

"Well, first impression. Pero hindi talaga." Pagpipilit ko.

"Ang pogi! Ang ganda ng katawan beks!" I pinched him when I saw him biting his fingertips.

"Iyong lotion mo pala hindi ko pa naibigay. Bukas ko nalang ulit ito itutuloy." I gathered the brushes and put it in the same place where I got it.

I walked to the shelves then placed my work there.

"Tara sa loob."

Nagalakad na kami papasok sa bahay. Doon kami dumaan sa likod na pinto.

We went to the living room. "I'll just get it upstairs. Dito ka muna ha?"

I was ascending to my room when I saw Lola had her clothes changed. Does she have plans today? Wala naman siyang nasabi sa akin. "La, may lakad ka po?"
