"Of course I miss that. But why did you call? Thought you were busy with your restaurant?"
"Yeah! But I want to ask you if you already have a boyfriend." napailing ako at napasapo sa noo.
"Mum, malapit na."
"Amanda dear, you're not getting any younger, find one immediately and get married. You're almost 30. You should settle now."
"Malapit na mum, soon I'll introduce him to you."
"Sure? Uuwi kami next month."
"Yeah, I promise."
"Okay bye! Pwede mo naman nang unahin ang apo, please... I'll go now." pakiramdam ko'y uminit ang mukha ko sa narinig pero hindi narin ako nakareact dahil binaba narin niya.
Well, okay na rin naman. I am ready to be a mother, si Luhennce na lang naman ang kulang.
I spend time working. 4 ako nakaisip na umuwi. I took a shower and cooked for my meryenda, namiss ko tuloy si Mavis, ang alam niya kasi hindi ako marunong magluto kahit ang totoo marunong ako, tamad lang. Nakasuot lang ako ng cotton sleeveless shirt at cotton shorts na maiksi. Nasa unit lang naman ako, kaya walang problema, wala rin akong suot na bra, masarap kasi sa pakiramdam. I was drinking cold water when I heard a buzz.
Mabilis akong lumabas ng kitchen at tinungo ang pintuan. When I opened it, mukha ni Kendrick ang bumungad sa 'kin. He was smiling genuinely, but that slowly vanished when his eyes drifted to my chest and he found out I was not wearing anything inside. Tinaasan ko ito ng kilay.
"Pasok ka," alangan siyang pumasok.
"Y-you're not wearing anything inside."
"I know."
"I'm here. You should wear one now."
"Oh, come on, Kendrick! 'Wag mo nga akong pairalan ng kainosentehan mo, you've already seen it and even touched it."
"What the hell?" nilingon ko siya.
"What?" I can see how his eyes darkened before looking away. Got you.
"Anong ginagawa mo rito?" I asked, to divert his attention. Masyado siyang affected sa 'kin, this guy is so weak.
"Nothing, nakakasawa ng mag-isa sa bahay." napataas nanaman ang kilay ko pero hinayaan ko nalang.
"I was about to eat my meryenda. You want some?" lumiwanag naman ang mukha niya.
"Talaga? Bibigyan mo ako."
"Yeah, kakasabi ko lang 'di ba?"
