Lumabas kami at dumiretso sa sasakyan niya. He open the door for me.

Pumunta kami sa malapit na grocery store. Kumuha ako ng dalawang cart at dalawa iyon ay pinahawak ko sa kaniya. Ako ang nauna at patuloy na kumukuha ng mga nasa listahan. Nang makita na mabigat na ang dalawa ay tumulong na ako sa paghihila.

After we paid, he carried all of it towards his car. Hindi niya ako hinayaan na mag buhat.

Nag drive through kami ng pagkain ko dahil talagang gutom na ako at hindi na kaya. After that he drove back to our house. Binuhat niya ulit ang mga iyon papunta sa loob. Natutuwa ako dahil parang wala lang sa kaniya iyon at halatang tambay sa gym.

Pinagbuksan ko siya ng pinto sa bahay. Nilagay niya sa counter top lahat. Binuklat ko ang plastic at binigay sa kaniya ang mga napkin ni Ate Zab.

"Akyatin mo siya sa kwarto niya." I handed him the napkin. He look so serious wile holding the napkin. I giggled.

Nilagay ko na ang mga pinamili sa cabinet at kumain na. After I ate, I sleep again.

Buong araw ata akong natulog ng araw na iyon. Monday ay bumababa ako at nakita si Keegan at Ate nandoon sa sala at nanonood. For sure night shift yan si Ate.

"Ang aga aga!" Pang aasar ko, they both look at me.

"Tawagan mo kase boyfriend mo!" Pang iinis din ni Ate, ngumiwi ako ng maalala si Abdiel.

I sigh, I miss him.

"Speaking of, you forgot your phone here. Your boyfriend called." Keegan said and handed me my phone. I nodded at him.

"I told him, you're sleeping upstairs." He said, I shrugged my shoulder and look at the TV.

Sinilip ko ang phone ko at wala naman ng message mula sa kaniya. Nilapag ko ulit ang phone ko at kumain na ng almusal.

Pagkatapos ay nag ayos na ako dahil mamaya lang ay susunduin na ako ng dalawa dahil pupunta na kami sa hospital para makausap ang directress.

I just wore a semi formal attire, I am waiting for them here on the sofa.

"Babe!" The loud voice of Bethany is running towards my direction for a hug. I chuckled and hug her back. I hugged Delaney too.

"I miss you!" Bethany said, I look at her like duh? Kakakita  lang namin noong last week.

"She's crazy." Delaney said, I rolled my eyes and nodded. Naglakad kami palabas at sumakay na sa sasakyan ni Bethany.

"You two look so blooming!" I exclaimed, Bethany flipped her hair while Delaney just smiled mischievously.

"Of course! Nag honey moon kami ng bebe ko sa palawan eh." Bethany blurted, I laughed. Namula naman si Delaney sa bulgar na wika ni Bethany.

"Eh ikaw? Mag kaaway kayo ni Abdiel?" Delaney asked, I nodded and told them the story.

"It's okay. It's just a simple misunderstanding. Magkakabati din kayo." I smiled at Delaney.

"Yeah, for sure. Pero sana ay bago mag Thursday. Valentine's day eh!"

"Nako! Sasabunutan ko talaga yang Janelle na iyan!" Bethany said, I look at Delaney and she just nodded too.

Bethany park the car. We rode on the elevator to go to the Directress's office.

Nakita namin sila Doctor Marqueza at Doctor Ybarra na papunta din ata sa office ng Directress.

"I missed you!" Doctor Marqueza said, I smiled and hug her. Bethany and Delaney followed.

"Saan kayo pupunta?"

"Sa office ni Madam." Delaney said, I nodded.

"Doon din kami, bakit kaya?"

"Maybe it's because about the rest day. Doctor Enrique told me that all of the employees here has a one month day off every two years." Bethany and Delaney shouted and hug each other happily.

Excited kaming pumasok sa loob. We knocked three time.

"Come in!" She shouted from the inside. Delaney open the door for us.

"Have a sit." The Directress removed her glass and stood up from her swivel chair.

We all sat on the sofa. The Directress started explaining. Tama nga si Doctor Ybarra. We have a one month rest day that will start tommorow.

Dahil sa sobrang saya ay lahat kami ay dumiretso sa bar at nag party.

I am having the best time of my life when someone called me. I took my phone and saw Abdiel's name. I walked outside before answering it.

"Hello?"

"Fuck! Alondra! Let's talk!" Halata ang galit sa boses niya.

"What? Akala ko ay nasa business trip ka?"

"Fuck that! We'll talk. I am in NAIA now." He said and ended the call.

Natulala ako at hindi alam ang gagawin. Should I fetch him? Nah! We can talk tommorow. I am a bit drunk now.
