When the sun started setting, we decided to leave the amusement park pero nag-agree kami na babalik kami sa susunod na linggo.
"Susunduin kita bukas." Sabi ni Noah as he helped me out if his truck noong nasa tapat na kami ng bahay.
"Why?"
"Because I want to. At hindi na ako tatanggap ng 'hindi'." pilit niya.
"Okay then. I'll see you tomorrow morning." I smiled at him.
He took a step closer to me and placed his hand on my shoulder, slowly lowered his head and planted a kiss on my forehead.
"Goodnight." He said and got in his vehicle but all I could do was just stand there and stare at the ground.
The little things
"Pwede ka nang pumasok." Nagulat ako nang magsalita ang kuya ko na nasa labas pala ng bahay.
I slowly walked in towards the house.
"Sabi ko layuan mo 'yon." Madiing paalala niya.
"Kuya, not now please. Sobra sobra na 'yung kanina. Isa isa naman." I said coldly and walked past him and straight into my room.
I took a long shower and went straight to sleep so that I could have enough energy to go to school tomorrow.

I was woken up by the loud ringing of my phone that was still in my shoulder bag from yesterday.
I was still half asleep so, with one eye closed I was struggling while trying to feel for my phone in the small bag. When I did finally get ahold of it, I answered the call and held it up to my ear.
"Hello?" I said in a sleepy voice.
"Good morning, my love." the voice from the other line greeted.
Good morning, my love
Nagising ang diwa ko sa apat na salita na 'yon.
Was that a part of my dream or did he really say that?
"Hey. Are you awake?" tawag pa niya mula sa
loob ng cellphone.
"Ah, oo. Good morning." natatarantang sagot ko. I still haven't processed what he said.
"Get ready na. I'll be there soon." mas lalo akong nataranta.
Noong binaba na niya ang tawag dali dali akong bumangon mula sa kama at nagmamadaling nagbihis na ng damit. I didn't bother taking another shower because I just took one before sleeping and I didn't want to keep Noah waiting.
When I was in my uniform and I was satisfied with how I looked, Kinuha ko na ang backpack ko and gladly went downstairs.
"Good morning, anak." I was greeted... by Anthony.
"Good morning?" I unsurely greeted back. "You can call me Lia. Doon ako komporatble."
"Whatever you want, Lia." He had a small smile plastered on his lips.
Nilagpasan ko lang siya at dumeretso sa ref para maghanap ng makakain.
"Nagluto ako Lia. Kumain ka na." Yaya Glenda informed me.
"Salamat po. Pero hindi pa po ako gutom." I lied. First of all, I didn't want to take up too much time eating and I didn't want to stay here for long considering that Anthony was here.
Pinilit pa din ako ni yaya na kumain muna bago ako umalis kaya nag-agree nalang ako na kakain ako ng cereal para madali lang.
Saglit lang ay sumabay na din sakin kumain sina mom, kuya, at si Anthony. Mas binilisan ko pa ang pagkain ko at ilang beses pa akong pinagsabihan ni mom na magdahan-dahan sa pagakin.
