Nagising ako nang maaga at itong mga kasama ko sa yate ay mga tulog pa. For the first time ay naunahan ko si Jaino sa paggising. Wala naman kompetisyon ro'n, but he's been waking up so early in the morning just to help us with our trip for the rest of the day. Mukhang napainom din kagabi ng marami si Jaino kaya humaba-haba ang tulog niya.
Napansin ko naman na wala si Cholo sa sofa kung saan siya natutulog. I quickly looked for him and found him sleeping on the front deck of the yacht. Kumunot ang noo ko pagkakita ko sa kanya. Nakabaluktot pa ito at ang ginawa niyang unan ay ang kama niya.
Hindi ko alam sa lalaking 'to kung anong pumasok sa isip at dito natulog. Malamig ang lapag at mabuti na lang ay hindi rin umulan kung hindi sakit pa ang aabutin ng lalaking 'to. Bumalik ako sa loob ng cabin saka ko kinuha iyong unan at blanket niya.
I went back to the front deck and slowly put those stuff on him. Hindi naman siya nagising at nalagay ko nang maayos kaya bumalik na ako sa loob. He looked so comfortable there so bothering him at early at this hour wouldn't be a good thing since he was also drinking last night and could have gone a hangover.
Tumungo ako sa kitchen and found myself boiling some hot water for a cup of coffee. Nang kumulo ang pinainit kong tubig ay nagsalin naman ako sa tasa at nagtimpla ng kape. Today's weather is a little different. Malamig ang simoy ng hangin kaya parang nakakatamad lumusong sa dagat o kaya naman maligo pa.
Once I've prepared my coffee, Jaino showed up.
"Good morning," pagbati naman nito sa akin.
"Good morning!" pagbati ko rin.
"How was your sleep?" he asked. "How much have you drank last night?"
"I only drink a few," I said. "I don't even drink the hard ones because I know I'll get a bad headache and good thing I was moderately drinking except Cholo."
He chuckled. "Where is he?"
"He's still fast asleep," I answered. "You can check on him at the front deck. I didn't know he ended up sleeping there."
"I'll go see him," he said and went to check on Cholo.
The aroma of the coffee immediately sets my mood and lifted my spirit up. I tried sipping even though it was still hot but felt good when I drink them.
I checked Limer in the bedroom and he was still sleeping. He looked so innocent. I remember when Cholo mentioned to me that Limer might be talking to someone—not to a girl, but a boy. He was a little worried, to be honest when he told to me pero tinawanan ko lang siya.
It doesn't matter who he wanted to talk to. Limer is at the age where he's figuring out himself and I told him that it's a phase that most teenagers are going through this time of age, we should be more supportive about it and never let them make feel like an outcast just because it's out of the usual.
