Joshia
The day become very long and tiring. After the concert, we went to the place where I used to enjoy fishing. I planned this yesterday after hearing his bucket list and decided to grant one of them. Today's our last day here and I want to make it one of the best day in our lives.
And I suddenly regretted it because instead of fishing in the lake, Adonis' turned out to be swimming in it. Well, some brainless guy pushed him off the water making him fall. I'm on my limit from hitting someone but good thing I stopped myself.
My only problem is Adonis' who's soaking wet beside me. He's been cursing that guy to death. Mabuti na rin lang at hindi nya pinairal ang pagiging delingkwente nya kundi baka nalunod na nya ang lalaking yun kanina pa sa lake.
"Let's go back, you need to change and get dried or you'll get sick." I pulled him towards my Jeep.
"But I want to go fishing." He protested.
"With your state like this. You'll smell more fishy than the fishes in the lake." I deadpanned.
Sinamaan nya ako ng tingin at hinubad na lang basta ang damit nya. I sighed and looked for something he could wear inside my Jeep. I remembered putting extra clothes here last Friday and good thing it's still here, at the compartment.
We rented a picnic table where we put our stuffs like the snacks we brought and also a grill to cook the fish he will caught, if miracle happens. In front of my eyes is a guy who's struggling to throw a damn fishing line in the lake.
I sighed hopelessly as I stood up and went behind him. I held both of his hands and guided him how to properly throw a fishing line into the water. It wasn't difficult at all because it's just throwing, I wonder what made him confused and can't even throw.
He's a Pitcher for damn's sake.
It went smoothly to the lake. He faced me with twinkling eyes, obviously amazed. I rolled my eyes and shrugged.
"Don't let go of the rod or you'll lose it in the water." I reminded him.
He obediently nodded his head and whispered. "Okay."
I went back to my seat and watched him enjoy himself.
I used to go here before with my parents. This is our favorite place to go during holidays or vacation. This place held so many good memories I had with my father so it feel strange to be here again after so many years.
And because I don't have any father to bring here so I brought him instead. I just want him to try this place that used to be my favorite. It took him long enough before catching a fish, a medium size fish that can satisfy the both of us for lunch.
We'll grill this up.
We asked the staffs to clean the fish for us, it's a Tilapia. We grilled it after with the other seafoods we bought from the mini market across the Fish Farm. We brought canned beer with us that we both enjoy while eating lunch.
The delinquent shamelessly burped loudly and rubbed his belly. Sya ang halos kumain ng malaking isda dahil mukang gutom na gutom na sya. I'm not really a fan of fish, I prefer crab and shrimp. But it still good enough for me to be full.
We ate dessert after, avocado ice cream. And because we're too pull to drive and go back to the hotel, we took a walk to burn the fats down. Aside from fishing, people can also enjoy the nature vibes of this place because it was located in the middle a man-made forest.
"Grabe ang ganda dito. I should bring Nana here soon." I heard him whispered to himself.
We sat in a hammock, facing each other. He swayed his a bit and moved his feet back and fort like a kid. Umihip ang preskong hangin na naglipad sa buhok at damit naming dalawa. We enjoyed the cold refreshing breeze that smells like nature.
