─── Astonishing Efforts

Veritable quietude scene succeeding from the celestial scintillate conversant to the gloomy skies.

What was that? rather, Who was that?

Agad kong kinuha ang airpods ko, at muling pinakinggan ito. Pa-ulit ulit ko itong pinakikinggan. Zilch changed. It was all-entirety similar.

Mismatch and contradictory thoughts ruled my mind. Some of which is, He is part of the group who renovates our home, and badly needed the papers for it. 

"You're really judgemental na, Sapphire!" at humiga.

Sunlight went upon my gaze as I opened my eyes. Hinawi ko ang aking blinds and forthwith- a yellow almost like orange hues completed the blazing sun. I was giddily exuberant about the day.

"Good Morning, Nanay!" I greeted as I walked into the dining room.

I looked unto Nanay Denis, I always call her Nanay, kasi bukod kay Mommy Beth siya ang tumayong Nanay ko.

"Good Morning, Sapphire! Kain ka na," Nanay smiled habang naghahain ng pagkain.

"Sorry po, Nanay, I didn't cook today," agad na naalala ko.

"Ikaw talaga, Sapphire. 'Di mo ito obligasyon," Nanay assured me.

"'Tsaka baka mamaya tanggalan ako ng trabaho ni Donato!" Nanay and I laughed.

Speaking of Papa... "Nanay, saan po si Papa?" I asked anticipating he'll drop by.

"Wala ang Papa mo Sapphire, pumunta siya dito kaninang umaga mga alas kwatro, mag a-alis sais na, oh," Nanay responded while looking at her watch.

"Okay, po, Nanay," I said as I tasted another desolation.

"Ah! wala pala si Manong Ram at Roel. Si Boyet na muna mag hahatid sa'yo," dagdag ni Nanay. Tumingala siya sa akin at nakita agad ang matamlay kong mga mata.

"Wag ka mag alala Sapph, nag iwan ang Papa mo sa office niya nang mga pasalubong," wika niya habang hinahagod ang likod ko.

I smiled. I don't want Nanay to stress over me. 

My eyes traveled outwards. My eyes had a glimpse of students walking- and that hit me, They weren't like me. They were poor, impecunious to even pay for a ride.

See? Sapphire, your papa's working hard for your warmth and comfortability. My profound notions were put to an end when our car stopped in an instant.
