Mom called this morning, she said she wants us to meet later. I'm actually excited. Pakiramdam ko ay biglang nawala ang tampo ko nang tumawag siya kanina. She's glad that I answered her call. She thought I was mad. Of course, I'll never get mad at her! I love my mom, no matter what.

I also want to talk to her. The last time we talked, I told her na kapag magkakaroon ako ng boyfriend ay siya ang unang makakaalam. Yes, I want to tell her about Radicus. I'm sure she'll be thrilled to meet him.

Tinanghali ulit ako ng gising kaya hindi ako nakasama kay Rad na magjogging. He called several times and I missed all of it. I thought he got irritated kasi iyon ang alam kong attitude ng mga lalaki kapag hindi sinasagot ang tawag.

I guess my boyfriend is different. He left me a message saying ' I guess my princess is still sleeping, I'm sorry for disturbing you. I love you'

Since I woke up late, I have decided to cook something. I'm gonna cook...the heck what am I gonna cook?! Hindi naman ako kasing galing ni manang magluto. Si manang!

"Okay na ba iha? Nilagay mo na sa oven?" Manang asked me. She's on the other line. Tinawagan ko siya para magpaturo ng baked macaroni. It's my favorite. Might as well share it to Rad. I should remind myself to ask him about his favorites.

"Opo. Thank you manang! You're the best po talaga!"

"Ikaw talagang bata ka. Akala ko emergency! Saan ka nga pala magbabagong taon?" Tanong nito.

"Hindi pa po sigurado manang. " As a matter of fact.

"Mag-iingat ka dyan ha. Babalik kami ng Tatay Meng mo sa susunod na linggo. Nag-aalala ako sayo't baka namayat ka at walang nag-aalaga sayo."

I was touch. I am still glad that I have them with me. Sila ang kinalakhan kong mga magulang. Sila ang nagpuno ng pagmamahal na dapat sana'y ang mga totoong magulang ang nagbibigay.

I guess life can be so unfair sometimes. But hey, I'm still lucky. I can still feel how much my parents care for me. Someone unexpected came from my life and loves me. I feel whole despite of having gaps.

After a couple of minutes ay naluto na ang baked mac. I took a bath, dried my hair, and wore clothes. Nagsuot lang ako ng jeggings and my plain gray loose shirt.

I dialled Rad's number habang nakasandal sa pinto ng unit ko. I just want to ask permission kung pwede ko siyang puntahan. I don't want to invade his privacy too much. Kahit pa girlfriend ako. Damn! I'm just not so good on this. Freaking first time!

I was disappointed. Busy ang phone nito. He's talking to someone else I guess? But I want to try my luck. I sighed walked infront of his door and pressed the doorbell.

Hindi rin nagtagal ay nagbukas ang pinto nito. His phone is on his ears and he's talking to someone. Niluwagan nito ang pagbukas ng pinto but I remained motionless.

"What do I have to do with your business? It's yours. I'm putting up my own. Oh right? You're gonna tell dad.." his husky voice while talking over his phone gives shivers.

His other hand reached my arm as he gently pulled me close to him. He closed the door. He cornered me kaya napasandal ako sa pinto. I smiled at him and he smiled back. I gasped when he leaned closer and mouthed I love you. Hinalikan ako nito sa pisngi. That's so sweet. I thought.

"Are we still talking business here?" He asked to the other line. Malapit sa akin si Radicus kaya bahagya kong narinig ang pagtawa ng nasa kabilang linya. It's a guy with a freaking hot voice!

Binigyan ako ni Radicus ng daan nang mapansin niyang may dala ako. That was my cue to walk to his dining. Inilapag ko ang niluto ko at tinignan ang oras. It's already 12:30 noon.
