Your POV

Humming as I make my way down the stairs and gasped when I saw the kitchen.

"Wow, ang lawak, baka parang kusina ni chef Ramsay." I muttered.

[T: Wow, so wide, maybe just like chef Ramsay's kitchen.]

I slid my finger on the marble kitchen counter but it had dust. Moving on, I stood in front of a refrigerator that had two doors.

"Pangarap ko lang na makabukas ng gantong ref." I said as I slowly reached for the handles with excitement.

[T: It was just my dream to open this kind of fridge.]

I took a deep breath in while I closed my eyes.

"Pera o Kahon?!" I whispered in a low tone.

[T: Money or Box?!]
[Pera o Kahon is a game from the Filipino TV show "WOWOWIN" where players choose the box of their choice wisely. One of the boxes contains "Mega Jackpot" that contains ₱1 million cash, a brand new car, a house, and a lot from Bria Homes.]

"Kahon po!" I answered myself in a different pitch.

[T: Box!]

"Limang daang libo. Pera o Kahon?!" I said again.

[T: Five hundred thousand. Money or box?]

"Kahon po kuya Will!" I answered, still with my eyes closed.

[T: Box, sir Will!]

"Huling pagkakataon mo na, Pitong daang libo. Pera o kahon?!" I yelled in a whisper, mimicking a tv show host.

[T: It's your last chance, seven hundred thousand. Money or box?!]

"Lulu-chin, what are you doing?" Manjiro suddenly asked from behind as he rests his chin on my shoulder.

"HAPON- ESTE KAHON!" I exclaimed in surprise.

[Hapon is "Japanese" while Kahon means "box". They just sound the same in Tagalog so she said the wrong word "accidentally"]

"Manjiro, don't just sneak up like that. I get easily startled!" I said and smacked his arm playfully before proceeding to open the fridge only to find nothing but a bottle of water.

Heh?

I blinked multiple times before closing it and opening it again. I turned to look at Manjiro who just avoided my eyes.

"ANONG KINAKAIN MO?!" I exclaimed before looking at the cabinets and drawers, only to find nothing at all.

[T: WHAT ARE YOU EATING?!]

"Let's just order something from outside." He said and opened his phone.

"How about we just eat outside? Let's go buy some groceries too." I suggested but it looked like he didn't like the idea.

"I'll just call someone to-"

"No, there's no need to. I'll just go out myself while you wait here-"

"Let's go." He said and pulled me to the door.

"HOY TEKA! MAGPALIT NAMAN MUNA TAYO NG DAMIT! OUR CLOTHES!!" I said, making him stop and realize that we look disorganized.

[T: HEY WAIT! LET'S CHANGE OUR CLOTHES FIRST! OUR CLOTHES!!]
