THAT SNATCHER (That Series #2)

KABANATA 4

A few years passed since I met Hierra, she is very kind, naughty, happy, and talkative like me. I introduced her to mom and dad as well as agnes,my Kuya hasn't seen him yet, so maybe next time..I haven't seen her sister and her parents yet so I'm excited to meet them, Hierra likes to travel so she wants to be a flight attendant soon.

"Snowy!come eat this." I said while sitting on the floor, snowy quickly ran and ate the dog food I was holding.

"Good girl!galing naman baby ko.."and I kissed him on the forehead, I just smiled because my dog ​​is big now.

After playing with Snowy, I first drew a gown and stuck it on the wall,After I did that, I went downstairs to look for something to eat, and my eyes quickly widened when I saw that there was peperoni pizza.

"Pizza!!" I quickly took a box and put it on the table, when I opened it..it was still complete and that made me dance with joy.

While I was busy eating,kuya Hash suddenly came, so I ran and hugged him,he is taller than me na.I always hug him every time we meet, maybe because I miss him because he only visited our house once.I don't do that with Kuya Chester because I always see him at home.

"Are you eating pizza?" Kuya Hash asked,i nodded and pointed to the pizza being half over.

"Don't eat too much..after that drink a lot of water okay?"

"Yes sir!"

This is also one of the things I like about kuya hash, I know he doesn't have a siblings but he shows me how good he is.

"Kuya,why are you here pala?" and immediately drink water.

"I just want to say that I like someone.."The water I was holding almost spilled because I quickly approached Kuya Hash and I wanted to know who it was.

Kuya Triton immediately laughed because of what I did,"don't laugh,tell me na sino sya?"

"It's Reena,yung panganay na anak ni Tito Charlie czereena ang name nya kaya yun ang itawag mo sakanya..ako lang sa Reena okay?" I nodded.

"Wow,may anak si Tito Charlie?Gusto ko sya makilala..at bakit mo sya nagustohan?"

"I don't even know, I just found out that I like him every time she smiles, my world suddenly stops." He smiled widely,ngayon ko lang nakita si Kuya Hash ma-inlove parang dati lang cellphone o kaya naman libro ang laging hawak nyan,at masaya ako para sakanya..dahil binago nya ang Kuya Hash ko.

"Gusto ko kapag nag-mahal ako,gusto ko sya na talaga..hindi naman ako nag-mamadali para jan kaya iintayin ko ang para sa'kin.Kahit matagal pa yan basta alam kong sya na yung the one ko,mag-iintay ako."

........................

"Nicole!"I quickly covered my mouth when I heard Kuya neil's voice, we were going to play hide and seek and he was the bet.

"Okay fine, you're the win."

"Yeheyyyy!magaling ako!magaling ako!" I sing while jumping,pinitik nya ang noo ko at pinunasan ako ng pawis sa likod.

"Loser si Kuya!" I tease my brother.

"Anak loser ka daw oh?payag ka nun?"Dad suddenly appeared.

"Hoy Nathan,pag aawayin mo na naman yang dalawa na yan.." Mom also appeared and placed the cookies and juice she had brought on the table.

"Joke lang,sino mag-papabuhat?" Dad asked with a smile on his face, I quickly raised my hand and Kuya did the same.Dad carried us both, so I was very happy.

Nang ibaba nya kami ni Kuya,naka tingin na sya saming dalawa"now,sino naman  magbubuhat kay Daddy?" I quickly ran to mom.

"Si Kuya Neil daw,daddy."I laughed,because Kuya's face suddenly changed.

While mom and I were eating cookies, my brother and dad were chasing each other in the garden.I like this always more fun when with family.

"Cassy,what do you want to grow up?" Mom asked.

"I want to be a fashion designer Mom."

"Ganda naman nang pangarap ng Baby ko..kapag namatay na ako ikaw ang gusto kong gumawa ng susuotin ko."Mom's voice suddenly weakened, I quickly shook my head.

"You will not die mom, you will see my brother and I marry the person we love."I said while my voice was shaking, mom just laughed at what I said.

I don't want that to happen,I can't.

........................

"Tita Bea!" I quickly hugged Tita.

"Ang ganda naman ng Baby girl namin,dalaga na talaga manamit."

"Oo Ate,daig pa yung dalaga manamit sakanya." Mom replied so they laughed,I'm going to sleep here with Tita Bea because mom and dad are going somewhere with my brother,sabi nila about lang daw yun sa company na mamanahin ni Kuya..kaya pumayag ako dahil matagal na rin simula nung makapunta ako dito sa bahay nila.

A few days passed, kuya Hash always left to go see Ate Czereena, I really want to come too kaso may pasok.

"Snowy!Behave lang jan ha?iinom lang ako ng tubig." when I saw that all the lights were off, I still went to the kitchen to get a drink. I was about to enter the room when I saw that the light was still on in kuya hash room I was about to knock when it suddenly opened, I smiled because I think I surprised him.

After he said that he was going to visit Ate Czereena, I was surprised because it was already dark.I just shrugged my shoulders and went into the room to sleep dahil may pasok na naman bukas.

I don't know where my whole family is going now,lahat kami naka suot na ng itim.

"Kuya Chester,where are we going?"

"To the mars." I quickly punched him,dahilan ng pag tawa nya.

"Kuya Hash,saan tayo pupunta?"Tanong ko ulit,pero hindi na kay Kuya.

"Sa bahay ni Tito Charlie."Kuya Hash said sadly.

"Really?Hala makikita ko na si Ate Reena!" Masayang saad ko.

"Czereena." Pag tatama ni Kuya Hash,hindi ko nalang sya pinansin.

"Wag kang malikot!" Inis na sabi ni Kuya Neil,kaya mas lalo pa akong tumalon.

Our car stopped in front of a simple house, I noticed a crowd here, I don't know how I feel right now.We quickly went inside until I saw the casket, I saw Kuya hash stopped at the door,I just let it go and continued walking until I saw who was inside it.

"It's..it's Tito Charlie.." When I said that, my tears suddenly started to flow.
