The Kismet of Penelope (COMPLETED)

CHAPTER 15

Quick trip

The best people will come at the worst time.

Sobrang late na akong nagising. I yawned before checking out my social media accounts.

Bumaha ng greetings sa timeline ko at ganoon rin sa group chats namin.

Puro 'Happy New Year!'

Thursday, next week would be mine and Zeki's 25th birthday.

Pinaghandaan ko na sa Manila pa lang ang ireregalo ko sa kakambal ko.

I took a shower and decided to wear my OOTD kahit pa sa bahay lang naman ako at walang lakad.

I wore a bling gold wrap dress paired with leather nancie sandal.

Hinayaan ko lang na nakalugay ang buhok ko bago bumaba para kumain at maglaro kasama ang mga pamangkin ko.

"Good Morning!" Ate Lucy greeted as she walk down the stairs.

Kuya Kleo is behind her looking at her like she's the most beautiful woman in the world.

'when kaya?' I asks myself.

"Good morning!" Wika ko habang inaayusan ng buhok si Kella.

"Alis muna kami saglit ah? Is it okay if iiwan muna namin si Erick sayo? He's still sleeping upstairs." Nahihiyang sabi niya.

I gladly nodded. "Oo naman! Wait, I'll bring Kella with me upstairs sa kwarto niyo so that I can babysit the two." 

"Thank you Penny!" She hugs me bago sila tuluyang umalis.

When I was done with Kella's hair binitbit ko na siya papunta sa kwarto nila Ate.

Tahimik kaming pumasok at nakita si Erick na mahimbag na natutulog habang nakasuot ng McQueen's pajamas.

"He's so cute.." Kella giggle. I did too.

"Yep! Just like you." I slighty pinch her cheek.

Inayos ko ang blanket ni Erick at kinumutan rin ang nakatulog na si Kella sa kanyang tabi.

Matagal sila magising kaya napag desisyunan kong maglaro ng mobile games.

Hindi ako lumabas buong araw. Panay kain, exercise, swimming at kung ano ano pa ang ginawa naming mag pipinsan.

Nang sumapit ang gabi. Naghanda na ako ng mga gamit na dadalhin ko para sa trip namin papuntang Davao.

I texted Zeki kanina. I told him to send my greetings to Rebecca.

He replied: 'Okay, tell them Happy New Year.'

before I went to bed I received a text coming from Shawn.

From: Shawn Salazar

Are you already asleep?

From: Shawn Salazar

Sorry for the accident call I did earlier today.

Napakagat ako sa labi nang maalala ko ang nangyari kagabi.

To: Shawn Salazar

Its okay. You can call me if you need anything from me.

I was staring at the ceiling while waiting for his reply. I almost jump when my phone rang.

Shawn Salazar calling...

Nahigit ko ang aking hininga.

Napaupo ako at agad na sinagot ang kanyang tawag.
