(Irene's pov)
"Anak?" I called
"Im here" Gracie shouted coming from the veranda.
I saw her scrolling down to her ig and liking a lot of pictures of some cats.
"You want cat?" I asked
"Nooo?" She uttered
"You sure?" I asked
"Why?" She asked me back
"Just askingg" i said
"Hmmm anak nga pala...." I said
"Gracie? Ano sasaka ka baa?" Alfie asked
"Ayy oo teka intayin mo ko" she said
"Mom, teka lang may pupuntahan lang kami nina kuya, Promise ill be back before lunch" she said and kissed me bago ako iniwan sa Veranda
Bumaba na din ako para makipag chismisan kay na mama at manang.
"O san pupunta yung mga bata?" Manang asked
"Hay nako malamang nag kapustahan nanaman yan tas may talo nanaman" i said
"Mag babasketball daw dyan sa court, si Michael si Simon si Borgy, at si sandro tapos si Vincent, si alfonso,si Matthew tapos si Luis" Bonget said
"Nako mag pupustaham nga yung mga yun, wala pala yung wallet ni Sandro dito oh" Liza said
"Teka? May dala bang purse si Gracia?" I asked
"Meron" Kuya Tommy uttered
"Pero they promised naman na dito sila mag lalunch" Bonget said
"Oh sya mamalengke lang kami ha" Mama said saka umalis kasama si Bonget at si Liza
Saktong pag labas ni Bonget dumating naman sina Greggy...
"Hey Greggy" i said
"Heyy, im sorry dapat kanina pa ako, kaso inayos ko pa ang gamit ni Clyde eh, iniwan kasi nung nanay papuntang Ilocos sur eh bukas pa ang balik" He said
"Oh talaga" i said
"Hey Clyde, say hello to Tita Irene" Greggy said
"Heyow, tata Iwene" Clyde said
"Hi Baby" i said and kissed his cheeks
"Bat si Clyde meron ako wala?" Greggy asked
"Ehem" manang said
"Ahhh manang si Greggy nga pala tas anak nya si Clyde" i said
"Kilala ko naman, pero anong ginagawa nyan dito?" She asked
"Babawe lang manang " i said
Tinalikuran lang ako ni Manang. "Upo ka Greggy, nag almusal kana ba?" I asked
"Ahh oo, eto nga pala, pasalubong ko sainyo ni Gracie" he said
"Teka nasan nga pala yung anak ko?" He asked
"Naku kakaalis lang mag babasketball daw kasama yung mga kuya nya" i said
"Ahhh ganon ba? Anong oras uuwe?" He asked
"Befor lunch, siguro mga 11 nandito na yun" i said
"Hmmm Irene? Diba malapit na yung kasal ni Luis, tas after naman ng kasal babalik na kayo sa Manila ni Gracie? Tapos babalik kana sa office mo?" Greggy said
"Ahhh oo, kelangan ko na bumalik tapos si Gracie mag oopisina na rin sya since nag advance naman na sya sa Hawaii ng pag aaral" i said
"Bat di oa mag masteral si Gracie?" He asked
"Ano ka ba? Papasok pa si Gracie ng second sem ng third year college tas mag 4th year pa yan, ewan ko ba sabi ko ililipat ko na ulit sya dito sa Pilipinas ng pag aaral, ayaw naman nya kasi sayang nga naman uulit ulit sya ng college " i said
"Ibig sabihin babalik si Gracie ng Hawaii?" He asked
"Gusyo ko sanang pabalikin sya pero kung babalik daw sya ng Hawaii mag kasama pa din kami, almost one year and half din yun kung tutuusin, pero kung gugustuhin naman ulit ni Gracie she can take online classes, kaso mag aadjust sya sa oras" i said
"Kung babalik kayo dun? Sana okay na tayo, kahit tayong dalawa lang muna" he said
"Alam mo Greggy, okay naman tayo, were in good terms as friends, si Gracie lang naman ang iniisip ko, if you're going to asked me if you can still court me, hindi mo na kailangang ligawan ako eh, kasi hindi naman ako nawala sayo" i said
"So you mean? Tayo na, uli?" He asked
"If you want to i am always yours, hindi yun nag bago at hindi na yun mawawala pa" i said
