“Nawawalan na ng modo ‘yang anak mo, Kuya! Manang-mana sa pinagmanahan!” I heard Tita Karen said.
“My daughter is making a good point, Karen. Tama ang sinabi ng anak ko.” Dad replied. Napangisi ako.
“Manang-mana talaga siya sa akin! We raised her well…” Proud na proud na sabi ni Mom. That was the last thing that I’ve heard before finally reaching the elevator.
I pressed the third floor dahil nandoon ang kwarto ko. The moment I got inside my room, I smiled. Not because I roasted my aunt but because I managed to finish my dinner without feeling guilty.
“Eat slowly… We can wait until you finish.”
“Now, drink a lot of water.”
Iyan parati ang mga sinasabi sa akin ni Ciel sa tuwing nagla-lunch kami o kaya kumakain ako ng something heavy. It was really effective. It was like a mind tactic that distracts my mind from developing an anxiety and the feeling of guilt after intaking such heavy meal.
Kasi when I eat slowly, hindi ko nararamdaman iyong pagka bloated after eating my meal. Busog ako pero hindi ko ramdam iyong paglobo ng tiyan ko. And when I drink a lot of water, it feels like I am cleansing all the unnecessary food that I intake.
I don’t know how Ciel does that. Kahit parati kaming nagbabangayan, still, I can’t deny the fact that he’s been a big help in conquering my anxiety when it comes to gaining weight again.
Umupo ako sa harapan ng desk ko nang saktong umilaw ang phone ko na nakapatong doon. Colton mentioned me in our groupchat!
Napakagat ako sa pang-ibabang labi ko. Hindi pa kami nag-usap ng matagal through PM dahil hindi ko talaga alam kung paano patatagalin ang usapan namin nang hindi niya nahahalata na gusto ko siya and he always give replies like 'Hahaha' anong gusto niyang isagot ko doon? Say my name and everything just stops?
I tap our groupchat na natabunan na dahil may tatlong sabay-sabay na nag wave sa akin. Hindi ko naman pinapansin. Bukod sa hindi ako interisado, tamad akong magchat palagi.
Colton:
After Christmas party, nag-aaya mga pinsan ko mag swimming sa’min
Colton:
@Cyprian @Mona Are you guys down?
Napangiti ako nang matamis. OMG! He’s inviting me, too!
I was about to type a reply when Ciel’s chat suddenly popped.
Ciel:
Anong oras?
Cyprian:
Sige G lang
I typed a reply too.
Me:
I’ll try
Puro kasi lalaki ang mga pinsan ni Colton. Iyong mga babae niyang pinsan ay bata pa kaya sigurado ako hindi kasali ang mga iyon.
Colton:
Sige, pag-usapan na lang natin sa mga susunod na araw. Matagal pa naman ‘yon
Cyprian:
Oo nga. Magsama ka rin ng babae para hindi mailang si Mona
Colton:
Wala akong babaeng kaibigan bukod kay Mona gagu @Cyprian
Ciel:
Sige, ako na lang magsasama. Sama ko kapatid ko.
Ciel:
