"So where do you want to go this weekend?"
"Don't you have work?" Kunot noong tanong ko habang ngumunguya ng fishball. Kakatapos lang ng klase ko when he said he was around our school at nag-aya siyang kumain ng street food.
"I'm free on the weekend" aniya kaya napaisip naman ako kung saan magandang pumunta
"Mhmm, why don't we go on a road trip"
"Thay sounds fun. Saan naman tayo pupunta." He asked
"I heard maganda yung viewdeck sa Lanisi. What do you think?"
"I feel like going to the beach"
"That's nice rin, it's been a while narin since the last time I went. Saang beach naman?" I asked
"Punta tayong Camuigin!" Parang excited na aniya
"My friend's mom owns a resort there, maybe I could pull some strings" I said
"That would be cool. So it's set na?"
"Magpapaalam muna ako" I chuckled
"At sino namang kasama mo doon?" Mom raised a brow.
"My friends! Sina Kaia, Amarah, Auri and probably Blaize as well" I lied
"Kailan?"
"Saturday to Sunday...mom please, I really want to go. Plus, I earned a spot on the dean's list. Don't I reserve a reward???"
"Ask your dad" aniya kaya napabuntong hininga naman ako at umalis sa opisina niya at naglakad sa office ni daddy. Sumilip pa ako sa pinto at napagtantong andun lang siya saka ako pumasok.
"Lallaina, hija! What brings your here?" He was surprised to see me
"Magpapaalam sana ako dad, hehe"
"Sure, what is it??"
"Kasi it's my friend's birthday this weekend. Tapos she invited us to stay for a night at Camuigin. I really want to go dad. I already asked mom and she said to ask you...can I go? Pleaseeee??"
"Sinong kasama mo?" Seryosong tanong niya
"Sina Kaia"
"Fine..."
"Really dad?! Pinapayagn mo ako?!"
"Just make sure you go home on Sunday. And, please Yna. Mag-iingat ka doon. No drinks!"
"Yes doc!" Tuwang-tuwang sabi ko at niyakap siya "Thank you dad!" I kissed him on the cheeck
"Basta mag-iingat ka doon, and have fun and enjoy. You look like you need it" he chuckled
"Gosh I'm so excited!" Pagkwento ko sa mga kaibigan ko habang kumakain kami sa KFC. Ngayon lang ulit kami nakumpleto, well of course wala si Noeh.
"Sanaol talaga may jowa" sabi ni Auri at nagkunwaring umiiyak
"Basta ikaw babae ka, mag-iingat ka doon! Huwag kang gagawa ng bagay na ikakapahamak mo. And you know what I mean" Amarah reminded
"Please lang, wala pa akong pang sponsor ng gatas" sabi ni Kaia
"Ina niyo naman, hindi naman ako tanga noh. Plus, I'm not ready for that yet"
