-My head, aches!-

Nang magising ako, mahimbing pa rin ang tulog nang katabi ko. Napagod sa byahe eh tapos sa opisina ko pa dumiretso kahapon kaya hindi na siya nakapagpahinga.

Balak ko sanang gisingin siya, kaso huwag nalang baka sipain pa ako.

"Ina, kumain kana nang pancake. Inilabas ko na rin ang gatas mo" Si Daddy.

Tuningin sila sa likod ko. "Nasaan si Iza?"

"Tulog pa po. Mamaya raw pala aalis siya, pahiramin niyo na muna nang isa kong sasakyan" ganito dito tuwing umaga.

My grandparents does the cooking. Gusto kasi nila akong pagsilbihan dahil noong bata raw ako hindi naging patas sa akin ang mundo.

Masarap silang magluto kaya ganoon din si Mama.

"Okay sige"

"My, I don't have anything to do tomorrow so I will fix the boxes under my bed"

'My' is the shortcut of 'Mommy' so 'Dy' was also the shortcut of 'Daddy'

"Oo sige, tutulungan ka nalang namin"

Lumapit ako sa upuan nila para mayakap ko sila. "Thanks a lot! Not only because you fed me, you also helped me get rid of the bitterness I felt. So I am grateful to be with you today"

I saw the smile on their lips which really made me happy.

"Wala iyon, hija. Basta para sa iyo gagawin namin ang lahat, dahil ganoon ka namin kamahal" maluluha na sana ako.

Kaso tumunog ang phone ko, it's my alarm! Kailangan ko na palang umalis.

"Bye, My and Dy! See you later" I waved at them from inside the car.

Mahal na mahal ko sila, hindi ko alam ang gagawin ko kung totoong mag-isa lang ako.

I realized that, you really don't have to move on by yourself. You need someone who is willing to help you. So maybe I said I want to be alone because I mean there 'I want to think about the things I need to understand'.

At the end of the day, you really need people to lean on, and the people I'm referring to are my grandparents.

"Nasaan yung kaibigan mo?" bungad sa akin ni Adam.

"Natutulog pa nung umalis ako" naglalakad kaming dalawa habang nag-uusap.

"I see. By the way, mayroon tayong kikitain na kasosyo sa Pilipinas kaya kailangan talaga nating umuwi doon" when he said that, I stopped walking.

"Weh? Really?"maybe we will stay there longer?

"Yes"

"Kailan ba?"

"This February, six months from now"

"Gosh! Ang bilis naman ata?"

"Oo nga eh, this March na mag-e-expire Visa mo 'di ba?"

Hala, oo nga pala! Edi ilang buwan nalang ang natitira ko dito.

"Oo, so almost three years na pala ako dito"

"Yes my friend, I'm sure you're not aware of that"

"I'm not"

I do not know why am I being this nervous. I really plan to go home to the Philippines but why did I feel different when Amchard said that.
