We arrived home late at night. Kuya kept talking about random things while we were inside the car! I couldn't understand him because he was talking about various topics. Manong Jun just laughed at the words coming out of Kuya's mouth.
Maaga akong nagising ngayon. Pumunta sina manang Fe at Chiara sa bayan para mamalengke kaya ako ang magluluto ng breakfast namin ni kuya.
I just cooked hotdog, spam, egg, and ham. I ate first because I'm going jogging today. I need to exercise.
I just wore a sports bra and lightweight compression leggings.
While my brother was still asleep, I went into his room to get a cap. I don't usually wear one because I'm not fond of it. Once I got it, I quickly left. I also grabbed my earpods to put in both of my ears.
Dito ako nag-umpisa sa labas ng bahay na mag jog. Bahala na kung saan ako makakarating.
Abala ako sa pagtakbo. Halos isang kilometro na ang layo ng natakbo ko nang biglang may nakisabay sa akin sa pagtakbo. Bigla akong napatigil dahil si Sean ang nakisabay sa akin!
"Hey, why did you stop?" aniya.
"Eh bakit ka kasi nakisabay sa akin?" Sambit ko naman. Hindi ako makakapag jogging nito nang maayos kapag alam kong nasa tabi ko siya! Baka mas lalong hindi ako makahinga dahil baka atakihin pa ako sa puso nito.
"I just want to jog with you," mahina niyang sagot na parang bata. Bigla naman akong nanlambot dahil sa paraan ng pagsagot niya.
I sniffed. I started running again, but when he didn't join me, I glanced back. He was just standing there, watching me.
I went back to where he was and held his wrist, then we ran together.
"Akala ko ayaw mo akong kasabay tumakbo," aniya habang hinihingal.
"Wala naman akong sinabi," sagot ko sabay ngiti. Hinihingal na rin ako at pinagpapawisan.
Nang may madaanan kaming store ay agad niya akong pinahinto sa pagtakbo.
"Do you want to rest?" Tanong niya.
Pagod na rin naman ako kaya agad akong tumango. "Sige"
Bibili na sana ako ng tubig nang pinigilan niya ako. "Ako na," aniya
I didn't do anything. When he bought water and food, he placed them in front of me. He also sat in the seat opposite mine.
"How much? I'll pay," I said.
"No need"
"Isa, Sean," sambit ko. Hindi naman sa nag papakipot ako ha, nakakahiya lang kasing lagi niya nalang akong nililibre.
"What?"
"Magkano nga lahat 'to?"
"No need na nga, e," sagot niya.
"Magtatalo ba tayo tungkol dito?" Sambit ko sabay taas ng kilay.
"Fine," aniya
"Ano?"
"Papayagan kitang bayaran 'to pero hindi pera ang kapalit," aniya sabay ngiti. Lumabas nanaman ang dimples niya dahil doon.
"Bakit naman hindi pera? At ano namang gusto mong kapalit?"
"Go to my birthday party. Sunday next week," sabi niya habang nakatingin sa akin.
