Driving at the highway, eyes on the road at 8 a.m., heading to Yasmin's house. Riding my sports car with my elbow on the open window of my car while the breezes of wind hits hard

" Uncle Yoongi!"

I got out of my car as I take off my shades with a smile, as I walk towards Darren and Nick while holding their backpacks on the side of their back

" Good morning buds! Bakit ang aga?" I ask when I was finally standing at their main door habang sila ay nakatayo din samay pinto

" Mom's in a hurry, tapos gusto niyang sabay nalang kaming aalis while ako papunta sa Airport, si Nich naman ay sa school at si Mom ay sa school din" Darren explained as I turn my head at Yasmin that's walking fast towards us with her bags and school supplies with her

" Your mom is still teaching kindergarten, right?"

" Yep! That's what she loves after all" Nich said with his eyes on the watch on his wrist

" Yoongi!" halos taranta at nagmamadali si Yasmin nang naglakad na papalabas sila Darren at Nich " Can I ask for a favor-- kahit ngayon lang?"

" Sure, of course! " I answered quickly with an exciteful smile

" Instead na maghintay kami dito sa aming driver, pwede mo ba'ng ihatid si Darren at Nich? Darren's going to the Airport kasi flight niya at 10 o'clock, and Nich also, at school-- pwede ba?"

" Oo naman-- i-ikaw? Sumakay ka nalang"

I suggested at her nang agad nalang siyang humindi

" May pupuntahan pa ako--Thanks Cody, so much! Pero sila Darren nalang ang ihatid mo"

I just nod without hesitations and then I turn my head to the two, standing at the gate

" You heard your mother? Ako na ang maghatid sa inyo" masaya ko'ng sabi sa kanila nang nakita ko si Darren na napa'yes at Nich na medyo abala lang na nagbitbit ng kaniyang gitara

" Salamat talaga! I owe you a lot!"

Napangiti nalang ako na may halong pagkahiya sa kaniyang harap. Kaya tumango nalang ako at hinintay na muna siya habang nag-lock ng pinto

" Kahit ako pa ang maghatid sundo nilang dalawa, okay lang sa'akin yun!"

napatawa nalang siya na parang nahihiya habang kami ay naglakad na papalabas ng gate

" Cody that's a lot, it's okay"

" So, you're old enough-- you're 20 years old, pwede naman kayo'ng magkuha ng driver's license ni Darren"

I ask habang ako ay nakatingin sa kalsada, with my hand on the steering wheel

" Darren is still learning about his driving lessons, but I choose not to own a car.."

Napatingin nalang ako sa salamin habang siya ay nakatingin lang sa labas ng window

" Why? "

" I prefer to just walk on my way to school, or ride a bike, but sometimes you are in a big hurry and you need a vehicle to send you fast to your destination.. but still, I don't wanna own a car"

I just smile and then a little meters away ay malapit na yung school niya

" By the way, where is your brother off to?"

" He is going to France for a while, some sort of field-trip,  I think"

Nang malapit ko ng iparada ang sasakyan sa entrance, dahan-dahan na din niyang kinuha ang kaniyang bag at gitara sa likod

" Have a good day!"

" Thanks uncle!"

Pinarada ko na ang sasakyan, nang lumabas na siya sabay sirado sa pinto at kaway sa akin habang papasok na siya sa gate

I smile back and then start the engine, when I turn my eyes on the other way when I start to turn the car back to the road, halos nanlamig yung mga kamay ko nang bigla ko siyang nakita na papasok sa entrance ng gate

"R-Red..?!"
