Chapter 4

Nandito ako ngayon sa bahay at iniisip kung saan ko ilalagay ang mga dalawang painting na binili ko mula sa japanese surplus na pinuntahan ko nang isang araw.

May pangalan ang painting at nakasulat ito sa likod.

Old Plum by Kanō Sansetsu

At ang isang painting ay abstract lang at walang nakalagay na pangalan. Sa kabilang pader ko ito nilagay at ang Old Plum naman ay sa may accent wall ko na khaki.

Inayos ko ang aking kwarto at mukha na siyang aesthetic.

This is my room, at sa katabing kwarto ay ang kwarto ni Ella, bunso kong kapatid. Dalawa lang kaming anak kaya we are spoiled, lalo na siya. She's just 16 years old yet she has so many advertisements na nagawa. She is also a model ng isang local brand of clothes.

At ako? I'm still trying to figure out if mag wwork ako sa company namin as a nurse.

Our company is a construction company, we handle workers who wants an instant job at magttrabaho na lang sila agad when they apply to us. And every site, there should be always an enough workers to do the job. With them, with every site, there will always be a one nurse para sa mga workers who accidentally hurt themselves. Yes, I know, ang unique ng company namin, pero we really have so many people to handle. We have almost thousand and they are everywhere. We are partnered with an architecture company who designs houses and they are making our people to build what the architecture company's assigned architect drew. The owner of that company is Uncle Kim. The one who owns the restaurant where we ate our family lunch.

I don't know if I could handle being a nurse and at the same time studying MBBS. I'm still thinking about it. 2 years na akong nurse sa isang private hospital but I resigned. I am in the middle of getting the Job that Dad is offering or study muna ng medicine.

It's sunday afternoon and it's been two days since I met Mateus. Nag exchange kami ng number pero until now, he's still not texting me. Well, ayaw ko naman na mag expect sa taong isang beses ko pa lang nakita.

Narinig kong may nag message sa akin kaya agad-agad ko itong binuksan.

Speaking of the angel. Nagtext siya.

From Mateus Salvadera:
Can I call you?

Wow, unang message niya sa akin ay tatawag na siya agad, ibang klase. Pwede naman mag text na lang or tawag na lang kaagad.

To Mateus Salvadera:
Yes, no problem. :)

I sent the text and waited for him to call me.

It took him a minute to call pero ayos lang naman, it's not so long.

Umupo muna ako sa may veranda ng kwarto ko at inilagay ang magazine sa mesa na hawak ko kanina.

"Hello, Krish." he said.

"Hello, what made you call me?" bungad ko sakaniya.

"I just missed you, and your voice." he said with a sad tone.

Seryoso ba 'tong lalaking 'to? Isang beses ko pa lang siya nakita and he already miss me?

Pa-fall talaga.

"Oh." I chuckled. 'Di ko alam ang sasabihin ko sa sinabi niya na miss niya ako. I don't want to say I miss him, dahil I don't really feel that way. "How was your two days?" I said.
