My Master's Lover

*Chapter 3*

*blink* *blink*

*yawn*

bumangon ako sa higaan at nag unat. Paglingon ko sa tabi ko, nakita ko si isaw, mahimbing pa ring natutulog. I stroked his back before going to the music room. Yep, I have a music room, diba nga sabi ko, si Dad ang may ari ng condominium na 'to? so he gave me the finest, most biggest unit. Or should I even call it that?

Once I went to the music room, I sat and played the piano. Every time I feel angry, sad, or happy, I go play the piano. Or violin. Or sometimes the guitar...

Pumikit ako at dinama ang kanta, at para bang alam na ng daliri ko ang mga notang pipindutin. So basically, nagse-senti ako.

Inisip ko kung nasaan si Mom, pero, 'di ko nga alam kung meron akong nanay eh, kahit kelan hindi nagkwento si Dad. Lumaki akong walang nanay, but, luckily, I managed. Though, it wasn't easy.

Pagmulat ko ng mga mata ko, si Isaw nakapatong na sa piano.

'ang bilis niya ah, nagte-teleport ba 'tong pusa na 'to?'

" meow" said cat meowed in a happy tone. I understood it as him saying, 'you're good'.

"why, thank you" I nodded.

After the song, I decided to feed Isaw. I pulled out the pet bowl from one of the cupboards - pet bowl ng dati kong pusa- at nilagay doon ang cat food.

Inamoy-amoy ito ni Isaw, and he turned down the food.

'why would he turn down wet cat food? (cats love 'em!), choosy much?'

" meow" Isaw looked at me and stared into my eyes. His eyes looks like it's pleading. But why?

" ayaw mo? bakit?"

" meow"

" eh, anong gusto mo, isaw?"

His eyes gleamed once again. I sighed.

'sayang naman yung cat food...'

" eh, mamayang alas singko pa sila magbebenta ng barbe-q..."
