His Island

Chapter 26

Tumuloy ako sa Manila pero tatlong araw lang ako muna doon. Nami and Kaila help me to pack my things and they are now acting like a parents than Mommy. 

"Always text us okay? Don't forget to update." Kaila said. 

I laughed. "3 days lang muna ako don Cous. Hindi naman yon ibang bansa. Kaya ko yan. Don't worry."

Isinarado ni Nami ang luggage ko. "All set! Lyle, kumain ka don ha! Tatawagan mo kami! Wag kalimutang hanapan ako ng gwapo!" bilin nya.

Hinampas ko sya at inismiran.

"Aray!" she glared at me.

Pinandilatan ko sya. "May kavideo call ka na nga gusto mo pako manghunting para sayo!" anas ko.

She pouted. "Basta!"

Napailing nalang ako at tumayo. Kaila drive me to the airport and I'm sitting beside Mommy in the backseat. Si Nami naman ay na nasa front seat.

"Call me when you get there. Enjoy and take care of yourself." saad ni Mommy.

I nod and hug her. "Yes, Mom."

Hindi nagtagal ay nakarating nadin kami sa airport. Tinulungan din nila akong ibaba ang gamit. Sakto ang dating namin dahil oras na ng boarding ko.

Humarap ako sa kanila at niyakap isa isa. "I'll get going. 3 days and I'll be back."

They all nod and they look sad. I chuckled. "My gash girls! 3 days lang ako don ano ba!" i said playfully to lift their mood.

Nami nod and pouted. "Sige na! Baka maiwan kapa." aniya at kumaway. Ganon din si Mommy at Kaila. I sighed. I hold my luggage and I slowly walk to leave.

Habang naglalakad ay iniisip ko na kung ano ang mga una kong gagawin. Actually, I already contact a company in Manila and they immediately replied. Bukas din agad ang umpisa ko.

Dumaguete is far from Manila and the flight is tiring. I'm just watching a movie on the plane and often sleep because there's nothing to do. Sometimes, I woke up to eat and after that, I slept again.

Nang makarating ay sobrang sabog ko pero nahanap ko din naman agad ang condo ko. Nahiga ako sa kama at ipinikit ang mata para magpahinga saglit bago ayusin ang gamit. There's lots of establishments and it was way far from what you see in the Island. Madaming sasakyan, matataas na buildings, andaming tao at lahat ay halos nagtatrabaho. Parang pag tinitingnan ko palang sila ay napapagod nako.

I was supposed to rest a little bit I unconsciously slept. When I wake up I arrange my clothes and my things. Pagkatapos ay nagtimpla ako ng kape para tuluyang mabuhay ang diwa ko. I sat on the chair and do my part in my research. 4th Year is stressful and draining but It's worth it. Konting tiis pa at makakagraduate nadin kami. 

I plan to work in a TV or Radio Production here also in Manila. That's my plan but... I can't leave the Island. I want to stay there so, my plan is still a plan and I'm still undecided. Sadyang mahal ko lang talaga ang islang iyon at kung may choice at magandang offer ay mas pipiliin ko doon magtrabaho. Kaya ako nandito para malaman din kung kaya ko ba at ano ang pagkakaiba dito at sa Isla at alam kong mas may matututunan ako dito hindi lang sa trabaho.

I have almost finished my part but it still needs to be checked. Nagumpisa nakong maghanda at naligo nadin bago kumain. I'm wearing pair of cream blazers and pants, and underneath is a black sleeveless top. I also wear white sneaker shoes to match the outfit and put light makeup on my face. Kinuha ko na ang bag ko at tumingin muli sa salamin.
