Delaney
I am driving right now kasi pupunta kami ng mall para mag-groceries. Marami namang supplies sa mansion pero hindi naman kasi ako mags-stay doon.
I bought my own condo a week ago for my privacy of course. I wanted to stay at the mansion para makasama sila pero mas prefer ko kasing mapag-isa e. Nakasanayan ko na rin kasi. Kaya bumibisita na lang ako minsan.
Kumpleto na rin naman na yung mga gamit ko doon, foods and supplies na lang talaga ang kulang.
So I am with Adi right now. Hobby ko na talaga ang asarin siya kaya gawin ko ngayon. She's about to close her eyes kasi kanina pa talaga iyan sleepy. May naisip naman akong kalokohan kay pinalitan ko ang soft music ng rock music na nakapagpabigla sa kanya at mas nilakasan pa ang volume. I am expecting her to get mad pero ngumingiti pa ito habang sumasabay sa tugtog.
What the heck?!
Kakasimula pa lang pala ng kanta.

Gosh, she jammed like an adult. For peteʼs sake, memorize niya ang buong kanta!
"Where did you learned that?" I amusingly asked.
"Ninong Shawn." She answered.
Si Shawn talaga kahit kailan, jusko!
We're at the mall right now. Adi pulled me here at the bookstore. Supposedly e maggo-groceries lang dapat kami pero dahil napadaan kami dito sa bookstore e alam na. She likes books more than people to be honest. Kinakausap niya ang mga taong gusto niya lang.
Sina ate-mommy dapat ang naggo-grocery ngayon, ngunit dahil busy ferson ang momchikels niya e ako na muna ang nag-take over.
"Mommy, come here!" She pulled me to the sci-fi section where it is one of her favorite things to read. Really inherit from me.
"Can you please abot that book, mom?" Amp, conyo talaga. Walang sabing inabot ko naman ang tinuturo niya.
She even blushed ng ilahad ko iyon sa kanyang palad.
"Here you go, baby. Kunin mo na lahat ng gusto mo kasi madami pa tayong igo-groceries." I said that made her nod.
Hindi nagtagal ay pumila naman na kami at agad na nakalabas kasi hindi naman ganun ka dami ang tao dun sa bookstore.
Masayang naglalakad kami ng bigla na namang huminto ito at mwy itinuturo na naman. Napasampal na lamang ako sa noo ko.
"Ice cream! I want an ice cream." She exclaimed in joy.
"Okay." I rolled my eyes in defeat. "Let's go."
Tumalon-talon at kumanta-kanta pa ito habang papalapit kami sa isang Ice Cream Store.
"What flavor would you want, pretty baby?" The young vendor asked.
"Strawberry ice cream, please."
"Right away, honey." I bet may lahi siya, her american accent is so good.
Hindi rin naman nagtagal ay ibinigay ko na ang bayad ko matapos nitong iabot mismo sa batang kasama ko. Naaliw pa ngaʼt parang ayaw pa atang paalisin.
Malapit na kami sa grocery store when suddenly my phone rung. Itʼs ate-mommy, calling.
"Hey, baby. Stay there, I'll just answer your momʼs call. Behave." Saad ko rito at tumalikod muna upang sagutin ang tawag ng ina niya.
[Howʼs your baby-sitting, Z?] Natatawang tanong nito pagkasagot na pagkasagot ko ng tawag nito. I know she's laughing her lungs outta there right now.
"Yo, hindi nga ako nag-anak kasi ayaw ko ng sakit sa ulo. Taʼs masi-stress lang pala ako anak mong ʼto. Mauubos pera ko dito e, tss. Demanding masyado." Reklamo ko dito pero tawa lamang ang sinagot niya.
[You should practice na, Z. Go get your own, hindi masaya ang mag-isa. Alam mo iyan.] Pag-iiba nito ng topic.
"Maka-go get your own ka naman, ʼkala mo aso lang na anytime pwedeng magkaroon. And besides, I don't have time finding one. They're just a pain in the ass." Natatawang komento ko.
[Aysus, bitter mo lang masyado e. Oh, c'mon, Z. You're an adult now. Don't tell me it's still Tine? I mean, I know mahal na mahal mo siya pero si Tine rin naman mismo ang nagsabing maghanap ka ng iba. Kasi Z, hindi naman pwedeng siya na lang hanggang sa matapos ang oras mo sa mundong ʼto.]
Kung alam mo lang...
Hindi ako sumagot at nanatiling tahimik lang hanggang sa-what the!
"Don't you have eyes, Miss?! Can't you see na may bata-"
"I'm sorry." She coldy said.
Natigilan naman ako ng makilala ko ito.
"Miss?" Hindi makapaniwalang tanong ko. Tiningnan naman ako nito at gulat rin ang gumuhit sa mukha nito.
"D-delaney..."
