        "O? Asan si Apollo at Magno?" tanong ni Cohen nang sa pagpasok niya sa loob ng Pizza shop ay tatlong tao lamang ang kanyang naabutan; sina Haji, Sawyer, at Jethro.

       "May trabaho na naman ata si Apollo tapos si Magno hayun, di makaalis sa bahay niya. Injured," paliwanag ni Sawyer.

       Napangisi si Cohen nang maupo. Dumako ang kanyang tingin kay Jethro na abasa sa pagbabasa ng libro sa isang tabi. "Himala ata at tutulong ka?" biro ni Cohen.

      "Andito lang ako para mapanood kayong pumalpak... at mag video narin," sabi ni Jethro nang di man lang inaalis ang paningin sa librong binabasa.

       Napasinghal si Haji, animo'y nagyayabang. "Kami? Papalpak? Plan A palang, tiyak makaka home run na agad si Cohen kay Piper.

      "Asan pala si Piper ngayon?" tanong ni Cohen.

       "I'm glad you asked." Ngumisi si Sawyer. "Riley posted something about getting groceries." Dagdag pa nito sabay turo sa direksyon ng bintana kung saan tanaw nila ang malaking grocery shop.

     PIPER


        As Riley and I grabbed our grocery baskets, I suddenly received a message.

       "Who that?" Malamyang tanong ni Riley sabay awang ng labi gaya ng mga modelo sa high end magazines. Riley still dresses like a boy but the way he moves is just too fierce and girly. He even wore make-up kahit dito lang kami sa grocery shop. Talo pa niya ako sa naka-bun lang ng buhok at nag powder and lipstick lang. Well at least i'm wearing my red wrap dress so i'm still girlier.

       "It's Braylee. She says she'll be having a sleepover with Reika. Gagawa sila ng projects." I said as I was typing a reply for her.

       "Don't worry, gagawa sila ng projects hindi baby!" Pang-aasar ni Riley kaya nag-angat ako ng tingin at natawa.

       "Gaga. I'm not worried."

       "Yes you are. You're not Piper if you're not worried about Braylee." Wika ni Riley at hinila ako patungo sa fruit section. 

        Riley's kinda right but he's still wrong. I mean yes I worry a lot about Braylee but I think she's smart enough to protect herself. Especially now that I know there's some guy out there who's looking out for her. I just hope that whoever he is, his intentions are as pure as Braylee.

      "You think this is good?" Riley asked as he made me smell a mango.

       "Yup, that's good. Grab 30." Utos ko at sa puntong iyon ay dahan-dahang humarap sa akin si Riley, walang kaemo-emosyon ang mukha.
