I don't know how long I am staring at him but I am addicted. The way he moved his arms, chopping the ingredients fastly and he look so very professional.
"When did you learn how to cook, Hector?" I asked while my eyes are on him. I can't withdraw it.
"Uhhmmm...since I am 18," he answered plain and simple.
I emptied the glass of milk. I smiled and walk towards the sink where he is chopping the ingredients.
"Where should I place this?" tanong ko. Should I put it on the sink or on its side, I really don't know. I glanced on him and saw his brows shut above the ceiling.
Napakagat-labi ako. Wrong question, Lei, "Alright, I'll put it in here," sabi ko sa kaniya at nilagay sa mismong bilog ng sink. I smile on him and turn my back.
"A-ahmm...Eli, you should not put the glass in the hole. You can put it aside the sink," he said. I faced him with my red cheeks-it's burning. My eyes went round in shock, "Don't worry, it's not a big deal anyway. When I was a child I put the glass there too." He added but my cheeks really having a fire.
"B-but, I am already 24, Hector. How can you compare me when you were still a kid?" I asked, hating myself. Why am I being like this? I didn't even know how to put it in the right place. I stomped my feet back to the stool.
Tumaas ang gilid ng labi niya, "Oh? That's fine, Eli. I didn't mind, I found it normal on you," sabi niya sabay talikod.
And I found myself digging my face on my arms above he countertop. This is the consequences of living in a wealthy life and a strict dad.
"Don't feel bad, kaya ko namang gawin 'yan."
"Nakakahiya pa rin. When you were eighteen, you learned how to cook while me? I am here inside my house guarded by many guards," sabi ko sa kaniya. Para akong batang nagmamaktol sa magulang.
"Hindi mo tinry na magpaturo?" tanong niya.
I raised my head to glanced at him. He is now cleaning the frying pan, "No, my dad won't let me go here. Baka daw kasi masunog ko lang ang buong bahay," sagot ko. I pouted my lips.
"And because you have your made, Eli. That's their job. You don't need to learn."
He went to the burner and turned it on. I saw a fire in the middle. He really did it well. How can he?
"But it's unfair, you can cook, clean, can be a gardener and whatsoever! Me? I can't!" I yelled. Hindi ko na napigilan ang sarili ko. How I badly want to live a simple life.
"A perks of having a richest dad in the country," he said and I heard him laughed. Kumunot ang noo ko sa kaniya.
"Why are you laughing, Hector? I don't find it funny!" tugon ko. Umirap ako sa kaniya dahil sa inis.
His laughed became louder as his shoulders shakes, "I'm sorry- I'm sorry, why are so frustrated about things you don't know how?" tanong niya sabay iling.
"Because I don't know how, Hector!" I answered.
He raised his hands on the air, "Okay fine. Don't shout at me, okay?" sambit niya.
I nibbled my lips and looked down. Na-carried away ako. Did I disappoint him as his friend? Oh please, no!
"Anyways, watch me. I'm gonna fry this chicken. Just frying."
Tumango ako. He hold the bowl and walks towards me. Napatikom ako ng bibig. Nilapag niya sa harapan ko dala niya.
"I marinated that. With soy sauce, garlic and seasonings. Easy as that," he said. Sobrang lapit ng mukha niya sa'kin. I can smell his mint breath. Parang hindi ako mapakali sa upuan at tumingin sa kaniya habang sinabi niya ang nasa mangkok na nakalapag.
