"Ang tagal mo naman Ms.Flores"

Nandito kami sa may dining table nag titipon ulit para mag breakfast.Good thing maaga akong nagising,pero para kay Atty.Watson matagal daw, bahala na nga siya pake ba niya,bahay niya?

"Nag dedelimma payan"Biglang sagot ni Arlyn,my brows furrowed because what she said
ano daw nag dedelimma? where did she get that word from?"huh?its nothing dont pay attention of what I'd said,im just lutang you know"

"Oy, Ms.Flores wala kabang boyfriend?
kasi halata eh walang taga sundo sayo"
Malokong tanong ni Wayne kahit kailan talaga.

"Hayaan muna yan kulang lang yan sa aroga"sabat naman ni Arlon
Wow nag tatagalog din pala to?

"Its fine" i gave them an assuring smile

"Oh. Speaking of boyfriend have you tried to have one?" Cristine suddenly asked, i saw Arlyn look away, pretending that she didn't heard Christine question, probably wanted to avoid the topic.

"Yes"i admit yes i have one before, before meaning past. Past that cannot be forgotten. I saw how Arlyn face turned into amusing one, i saw her staring at me for a second then she look at Christine.
"Why did you guys broke up?"im unable to answer that question, because the truth we never broke up even once.

"Uhm we're no-"Arlyn cut me off
"Well love isn't perfect, girl, it's just an experience"then she looked at me then smile, she know that im not ready for it, its just me and my parents who knows my past, i want to buried it.

"Weird noh?, hindi ikaw yong tinanong tapos ikaw yong sasagot?"Wayne said,while acting like wondering

"Weird mo rin noh? Paki mo?"Arlyn rolled her eyes,tumawa naman si Christine, clueless.

Nakarating na ako sa opisina thank God  hindi pa ako late,wala naman akong maraming ginagawa i just attend some meetings then babalik lang sa office. Everyone asking kong nasaan na si dad 'hes our chairman of the board he should be here' one of our board member said, i went inside of my office,i let out a heavy sighed,this work was so stressful.

Nakaupo lang ako sa swivel chair ko buong mag hapon, swerte ata ako this day wala masyadong trabaho. Biglang nag ring ang cellphone ko kaya dali dali ko itong kinuha sa desk ko,i smiled it was mom

[Hey baby,i miss you,]

"I miss you too mom, and also dad"

[Dont worry baby uuwi na kami nang daddy mo next day uhm , naawa na kasi kami sayo diyan your the only one who take care of our company]

"No its fine mom, i can handle it naman, just enjoy your vacation with dad"i smiled even though she cant see it.

[Our weeks vacation is enough na my love,sige na I'm hanging up na bye i love you] then she hung up, she don't want me to talk anymore

I tried to call Arlyn to tell them that mom well going home na "Hello"

[What? is there any problem?]
Arlyn sounded bit worried, i smiled they always been like this since the day im loss

"Mom and Dad are going home na, i think we should pick them up sa airport tommorow" i suggested

[Oh. Tita and Tito are coming home na?, thats good, i'll try,kakausapin ko lang superior ko]

"Thanks Arlyn im hunging up now bye"

[Bye]

I sighed,my life are always revolved of my parents wants,i obey them to make them happy. I want to be happy too but how?
I don't even know how. I already dated with different man but its doesn't work, im tired,im tired of making my self to be new,i want to make a new life but how?. I want to get out of my comfort zone.

Nakauwi na ako good thing inayos na ang gulong nang sasakyan kaya hindi na ako sinundo, pagkadating ko wala pa sila, napaaga lang siguro ako nang uwi

Pagkatapos kong mag shower ay nag bihis na ako, nag ring ang cellphone ko bigla kaya kinuha ko ito sa bag, it was mom again

"Hello mom?"

[I expected na makarating kami diyan nang 7PM Aniah i want you and Arlyn to pick up us]

"Yes mom, i already told Arlyn to come with me"

[Oh. Arlyn was there,how she na?]

"Ayos naman, mas lalong gumanda"
I laughed jokingly

[Bye na mag prepare pa kami to launch]
Then she hung up

I heard foots step sa baba,bumaba ako para tingnan kong sino na ang dumating, but there's nothing kaya tinignan ko sa may kusina,baka si Arlyn na yun

Muntik nakong mapasigaw nang may humawak sa balikat ko, pag tingin ko si Arlon lang pala

"Hey"He greeted

"Kala ko magnanakaw"i joke

"Excuse me do i look like a thief" he sound offended.

"Joke"i gave him a peace sign

"Do you already eat Ms.Flores?"He suddenly asked.

"Can you guys stop calling me Ms or my surname"It's sounded weird for me.

"Okay fine, Aniah"its sounded cute

"Okay,cute pakinggan"

"Im asking you if you're eating na"
He look impatient na

"Ahh, hindi pa"

"I'll cook"

"Sure ka?"

"Yes"

"May cook naman ako ah bat ikaw mag luluto?"i raised my brow

"Because i want to show my skill of cooking?" He act like hes asking

"Ikaw bahala"i heard him laugh, i was about to turned against him when i realized something, that kind of laugh, it reminds me of him. I just shrugged it off im kind of delusional now, hes death anniversary are coming near.

Nagsimula na siyang magluto, nandito lang ako sa mag stool naka upo watching him

"Wow ang bango"
Binatukan naman siya ni Arlyn

"Ikaw talaga Jace" Christine laugh

"Nandiyan na pala kayo" i gave them a small smile

"Nasan pala kami Ms.Flores?" Sarkastiko nitong tugon, binatukan ulit ito ni Arlyn

"Aray, pangalawa nayon ah"reklamo naman nito ni Wayne

"Please dont call me Ms or my surname"
I remind them

"Aniah?"

"Wayne?" I tease

"Amputa, wag nga yung Wayne eh!"
Umakto pa itong nag dadabog

"Arlon wag mo nga yang pakainin sa niluto mo, he dont deserve to eat dinner"
Arlyn said while crossing her arm above her chest,then gave small smile to Wayne,i know its fake

"Plastik" rinig kong bulong ni Wayne

"I heard it asshole"Arlyn histed

"Yung pwet na may butas?"napa sabunot nalang nang buhok si Arlyn, at tawang tawa naman si Christine
