Twenty Two
“Uhm. Excuse me, Dad, Kuya. Me and my friends are planning to meet right now.” I made an excuse again.
Queen of Excuses!
I laughed on my mind. I cannot help but to feel nervous too. I never expected to see the people whom I am hiding from. Well not exactly hiding, hindi ko lang sila gustong makita. Not because of anger, but the last time we saw each other might be the reason that made me feel it's awkward.
“Oh?” Namiel asked, probably to tease me. By the way that he's looking at me, I know what he'd like to tell me.
Namiel may always be cocky but his instincts were never be wrong. Kaya ayaw ko na lang rin siyang kontrahin minsan. Ako lang din ang maiinis kapag malaman niya ang totoo.
“Oo nga, nakaligtaan ko lang kanina.” dagdag ko pa sa kanila.
All of them were watching me, waiting for more excuses, I would say. Ev

“Oh my goooood! They are so adorable!” hindi ko mapigilang sumigaw sa tuwa nang makita ko sila.I can't help but to pinch their cheeks one by one. They even giggled that made me pinch them more.Having a baby fever is no joke.They're more likely a year old to four years old kids. Ang lalaki na nila at saka ang dami ko na talagang utang dito sa kanila. Iniisa-isa ko silang binigyan nang yakap at halik sa pisngi habang hindi pa talaga ako nakakapigil na manggigigil sa mga bata. Buti na lang rin lumapit rin sa akin sila kahit hindi pa nila ako nakikita sa personal. Ang huling lumapit sa akin ay ang pinakabata sa lahat kaya kinarga ko ito sa aking bisig at isinayaw-sayaw.“Oh? Inggit ka?” a friend asked me for fun. “Gawa ka na ring sayo, graduate ka na rin naman!” she added then chuckled as she hugged her husband.&

The next day came and as I opened my eyes, the first thing that came up unto my mind is the property title. Good thing that they're all in the dining table, eating their breakfast. They greeted their good mornings as I sat on my usual chair.“Uh. I saw an important paper on my desk, thank you by the way.” I said as they are looking at me.Namiel choked then I saw Dad glaring at him so he immediately drink his water.“Oh that.” Rawl cleared his throat then said. “Matagal na sana naming balak sabihin sayo kaso busy ka pa sa pag-aaral mo at ayaw naman naming magambala ka pa sa pag-aaral mo.”“You should have told me earlier so I could start the construction but it's fine. Thank you. I appreciate it like super a lot!” I thanked them again for the gift and we all went silent.“So what are your plan on that land? It's pr

No matter how hard we plan our future ahead for us to live in it will be Him who would decide for us in the end. But that does not mean we would just wait for it to happen. Sometimes praying and asking for guidance is the best way for us to take the right path.Every choice we'd take, even the smallest thing might be the reason to have our lives turn 360 degrees. We might as well savour the moment of the present. As we do things for a better future.Start doing different things with the same circumstances, since we cannot change the circumstances, but we can change ourselves. Even the smallest things.Because what you have in the moment, you've attracted the person you've become."I couldn't believe this would happen." I blew off the air from my mouth as I watch the construction going.Walang araw siguro akong hindi pumupunta dito. It just feels like

At least for now, I could have my free time. I would not probably do things faster that made me do lesser efforts."And please help me tell your brothers not to go abroad already. There business is well and so the could help you manage our rice fields. Some of my amigos are selling theirs to me na.""Why? What happened?" I unconsciously asked.It was never my intention to asked him questions about his friends. I prefer sticking out my nose on their business. It's their friends not mine. We were already told about this since we were kids."Loss of money, I guess?""Just lend them some of your money Dad. Don't buy it just yet. Baka naghirap lang, tulungan na lang nating makabawi.""Wow. Is that my kind of adulty princess?" he even teased me for being serious about the situation some are facing."I'm not a

“Congrats Tami! I love all your paintings!” he congratulated me as I walk towards him.He gave me a hug so I hugged him back and smiled. I am smiling but it fades when I saw a flash from my peripheral vision. It was my secretary for months, taking us a picture from my old Cannon camera.“Sweet niyo po naman Miss! Sana kayo na lang po, total matagal ka ng gusto ni Ashwin, parang simula highschool palang, diba Ash?” sabi ni Leah, dati naman itong kaklase kaya medyo kaclose na namin ito. Dapat nga pangalan ko na lang ang itatawag niya sa akin pero sabi pa niya dapat pormal daw, kaya ayon, hinayaan ko na lang.“Hay naku Leah! Ma-issue ka pa rin.” biro ko sa kanya bago pa inayos iyong aking suot at baka may gusot pa.I needed to look presentable so I could earn my confidence despite of being nervous, and my feet are starting to get numb. Kanina pa ako

Even if I felt uncomfortable, I managed to finish the concert because Ashwin and I planned to meet after their concert, so I literally have no choice but to wait for him. I just hoped I won't bump with Czesar again or else, I don't know what to do. It's not like I blamed him for leaving me but there is a part of it that proves the fact that he does. Pero parang kailangan ko na ring maghanda dahil there is a hundred of percent that I can see him since Ashwin and I agreed to meet at the place where they will be staying for a while after the moment of the concert.The place is really crowded as what I expected, marami talagang gusto makilala ang bagong bokalista ng grupo at hindi maman siguro sila nadismaya nang makita siya. Bet some of them knew Czesar already coz he was already famous and friends with them.Pinahupa ko muna ang ingay at kahit ang ilang tao bago ako magdesisyong pumunta sa powder room upang mag ayos. Nakakahiya rin naman

“Wrong room.” sabi ko habang humihikab pa.I should be closing the door when he spoke again.“No ma'am. This is the room, room 108.” the delivery guy argued.I sighed before talking to him. “Sorry but I didn't order anything from your shop or resto. So please if you wouldn't mind, please leave because I still have a long hectic day. Thanks!” I told him before closing the door.Even if I am hungry, I wouldn't eat the food that I did not ordered, what if someone gave it to me and it has poison on it? Baka may taong galit sa akin, lalo na sa mga litratong kumakalat na iniidolo si Ash.I am planning to go on the shower room when I message arrived.Unknown:You kept me waiting hun, open the door and let's eat together..I looked at the ceiling, trying
