The next morning I woke up early. I also woke her up and then packed. but I forgot that she had nothing to use so I thought of buying online shopping for the things she will use after the transfer, I just cooked breakfast and then we ate afteray.

We sat down and ate quietly at the table. I think while eating.

I stared at her while eating and she just kept on eating.

I just noticed that she has a cold that both of us have the similarity of personality.

I also thought. why does it seem like she has no parent will go to the hospital, why no one bothered to go there even a friend who heard what happened to her? Why There are lot of questions I have now in my mind?. But there is no answer, Because there are more questions than answers. Wait how many years has it been ?.

I stopped then sneezed causing the silence of the two of us to break.

"ahm .. I have question. If it's okay"

She nodded then continued eating so I straightened up and stared at her then asked the questions the she answered it all politely without looking at me, just a once throwing gaze at me.

"how old are you?"

"20"

"still studying?"

"yes"

"what is your course?"

"architecture"

"What year are you?"

"4th year college"

"graduating?"

"not yet, I still have 3 years"

"owh .. Okay."

"yes"

I think about another question I should ask to her.

"how long have you been here in Spain?"

For a moment she remained motionless and just bent down looking at his plate still full. She drank some water before looking at me and answering.

"6 years"

So she's been here in Spain for a long time. I will guess She's studying here in spain then? hm.

"so you're studying here?"

"Yes"

I thought so, So why was she alone yesterday and running. why is her clothes are full of dirt and very wet.

"then why are you so wet and dirty yesterday?"

"and. Where is your parents,? where is your friends? and why are you not in School in 4:30 in the afternoon?"

I asked that made her stopped. She calmed down and then answered me

"I'm wet Yesterday because I fell down on the pool someone pushed me so I fell ........ And the reason why I'm running with a rush and wearing dirty clothes because I fell on sludge before I could leave to the School"

If that so. Then does that mean she is being bullied at her School like that?
So is that the reason too why she acted like an afraid baby?.

"so, are you saying ....."

She bowed for a long time before nodded. I don't think anything like that is happening, I think they have matured. But then in reality the type of bullying is different I can also must say.

"well, today is our flight. When we get to the Philippines I will send you home to your parents is that clear ?. My responsibility to you is done"

She immediately dumbfounded and stopped then looked at me carefully. She was like that for a while. I was wondering why?. She stood up and then pulled the chair and brought it closer to me, I followed her every moves with a gaze until she sat down.
