Too Late

Chapter 18

—Irene's Pov.—
I'm here at my office reviewing my lesson plan for my class later, while reading my notes I heard a knock on my door so I put my lesson down on my table...

Irene: come in! "at umupo ng maayos"

May pumasok naman na isang student

Girl: ahh Goodmorning Ms. Romualdez "Pag pasok nito"

Irene: yes have a seat Eleanor "itinuro ang upuan sa harapan nito"

Eleanor: ahh Ms. Romualdez can I take an absence next next week? "Tanong nito"

Irene: what's your reason?

Eleanor: I have to go to philippines Ms "sambit nito"

Irene: and Why?

Eleanor: my brother wanted me to come home because his grad..- "didn't finished what her going to say cause Irenes phone rang"

She signaled Eleanor to stop talking for a moment, then she answered the call...it's her Manang Imee

—on call—

Irene: yess Ate?

Imee: Ading my graduation will be next next week so you need to be here by next week okay? "Daretsong sambit ng ate nito"

Irene: ate? Ehh I can't "asar nito sa Ate nya"

Imee: why?!! "Inis sambit nito"

Irene: eh I have class pa that time "asar ulit nito"

Imee: basta come home or else I'll stop calling you!! "Sambit nito na inis na inis"

Irene: I'm sorry Manang but I can't go home ehh I have something important to do kase "Imee look at her like unbelievable"

Imee: important? Am I not important to you Ading?! "Medyo naluluha nitong sabi"

Irene: Ohh you're tearing up my beautiful ate "sambit nito na nang aasar"

Imee: don't talk to me again!! "Sabay patay ng call"

—cal ended—

Tumawa naman si Irene at napatingin sa student na nasa harap nito kaya nag ayos ito../

Irene: where are we again? "Tanong nito"

Eleanor: ahh Ms. Romualdez my brother wanted me to be in his graduation next next week "she said"

Irene: hmmmm "Think about it"

Irene: when are you going back to philippines? "She asked"

Eleanor: next week Ms. "she replied"

Irene: okay you're excused on my class in the next two weeks "napangiti naman si Eleanor dito"

Eleanor: Thankyou Ms.Romualdez "masayang sambit nito"

Irene: I'll come with you "napatingin naman si Eleanor dito"

Eleanor: Huh? "Takang tanong nito"

Irene: we'll go together next week cause I need to go too...
