Chapter 28

Chapter 28 : "Cookies."

I woke up early this morning, had my morning coffee with dada before he goes to work, had a talk with our new maid; Ate Linda, had fun riding a jeep alone for the first time to my grandparent's mansion and lastly, receiving a box of cookies from Theo. To sum it all up, I had a great morning today. And I think, ang mas nagpaganda pa sa mood 'ko ngayon ay ang malamig na simoy ng hangin na dumadampi sa medyo malamig 'ko pang balat dahil kakaligo 'ko lang.

This is one of the reason why I love the month of December.

I rolled my eyes when Kuya Ivan literally throw himself to the couch before stealing a piece of cookie inside the box that was resting on my lap.

Hindi 'ko na lang siya pinansin at pinagpatuloy 'ko na lang ang pagkain 'ko ng tahimik habang nakatutok ang aking mata sa telebisyon.

"That's it? Just rolling of eyes? No shouting? Throwing of pillows?"

I shook my head while gnawing a cookie.

"Someone's woke up on the right side of the bed." He said teasingly while grinning at me, showing his dimples.

"Just be thankful that I let you have a piece of cookie, tsk."

He rolled his eyes after finishing the cookie on his hand. "Tss, madamot. Kung hindi pa ako kusang kumuha kanina hindi mo naman ako bibigyan di ba?"

"Bakit naman kita bibigyan e bigay 'to ng boyfriend ko para sa'kin. May girlfriend ka naman di ba? Pagawa ka ng cookies."

"Tsk, busy 'yung girlfriend ko kaya hindi niya ako magagawan. Ang corny 'din ng boyfriend mo 'no? Cookies, cookies ano kaya 'yon? Nakakakilig? Nakakakilig na 'yon sayo? Syempre oo, patay na patay ka do'n e."

Hindi 'ko na napigilan pa ang sarili 'ko at kusang gumalaw ang kamay 'ko para kumuha ng throw pillow para maibato sa kaniya. Tatawa-tawang tumakbo si Kuya Ivan paalis sa living room dahil hindi siya natamaan ng unan na binato 'ko. Argh! Basag trip talaga ang isang 'yon kahit kailan.

When my phone vibrates inside of my front pocket I immediately took it out to see who just texted.

From : Rachelle ❤

I let out a soft chuckle after reading her text. May saltik talaga ang isang 'to minsan e, ay madalas pala.

To : Rachelle ❤

Nandito ako kayla lola bakit?

Kumuha akong muli ng isang cookie bago 'ko tinignan ang naging reply niya. Mukhang bored na bored ang isang 'to huh? Ang bilis mag-reply e.

From : Rachelle ❤

"Ano naman kaya 'yon?" Pagtatanong 'ko sa sarili 'ko habang pinapasok 'kong muli ang cellphone 'ko sa loob ng bulsa nitong suot 'kong denim short.
