Kinabukasan, nakailang kurap ako bago bumangon mula sa pagkakahiga. Did I really agree to have a reletionship with Ethan? I ask myself

I don't know what insect entered my brain, I was too careless with life decisions. Sinong matino na babae ang papayag makipag-relasyon sa isang lalaki na halos hindi mo pa kilala dahil sa kadahilanan na gusto ma-try magkaroon ng boyfriend?

How mature, Lahari. I sarcastically thought.

Ano na lang ang mukhang maihaharap ko kay Ethan? Ghadd! I looked so desperate to have a boyfriend.

I shook may head at the thoughts, bahala na si batman sa aking katangahan. Nag ayos muna ako ng sarili bago lumabas ng kwarto. Walang tao sa loob ng bahay bukod kay Ethan na nag titimpla ng kape sa kusina. Siguro ay nag hahanda na ang iba.

"Good morning," Ethan greets me with a smile when I entered the kitchen.

I smiled at him before also saying 'good morning'. "How was your sleep?" He asked before approaching me and kissing my forehead.

Nagulat ako doon pero hindi ko pinahalata, hindi ko alam na bukod sa pagiging childish ay may ka-sweetan din pala siya sa katawan. "Ayos naman, ikaw ba kamusta tulog mo?"

"Late akong naka-tulog, siguro ay iniisip mo ako kagabi, kaya hindi ako makatulog ng mabilis." He replied before grinning.

I quickly slapped his arm softly, ang hangin talaga kahit kailan. "Asa!" He laughed at what I said, hinayaan ko na lang siya bago mag timpla ng gatas.

Pag tapos kong magtimpla ay naupo muna ako sa bar counter bago naisipang ipagpatuloy ang pagbabasa about sa iba't-ibang disease. I felt Ethan sit next to me but I ignored him.

Ngayon lang talaga halos nag sink sa utak ko na marami din palang disease sa female reproductive system tulad ng endometriosis, uterine fibriods, gynecologic cancer, interstitial cystitis, polycystic ovary syndrome o tinatawag na PCOS, sexually transmitted diseases o STDs at marami pang iba. 

Akala ko din dati na kapag nagkaroon kana ng menstruation ay pwede ka mag buntis, pero mali pala ako ng akala dahil sabi dito sa binabasa kong article ay mayroong diseas sa babae na hindi ka pwedeng mag buntis kahit nagkakaroon ka ng buwanang araw which is iyong tinatawag na infertility.

"Hindi ka ba na bo-bored jan sa binabasa mo?" Ethan asked from the long silence.

I looked at him before shaking my head, "no, actually hobby ko na ang pag a-advance reading. Weird for other people but I'd rather read like this than socialize," I said before smiling slightly.

That's the truth.

"Since yesterday, you have been reading about human anatomy ngayon tungkol naman sa disease. I think I already know what course you're going to take"

It's not hard to guess because you can see in the articles I read that it's all about the body, how the body's systems function, about diseases inside the body.

My eyebrows rose because of what he said, "ano nasa isip mo?" I asked.

"BS in basic medical science?" 

I shook my head. "No, grabe naman iyan. Hindi kaya ng brain cells ko yang course na iyan. BSN lang naman kukunin ko." I answered then shrugged my shoulders, mga pinag-aaralan nga ng nursing nahihirapan na ako pag dodoctor pa kaya.

He frowned, "bakit feeling ko pang doctor ang inaaral mo? Grabe pinabilib mo ako sa pagkapursigido mo," he said before smiling.

"Of course, I don't want to depend on my family for the rest of my life," I said with full of determination.
