Important Author's Note at the end of the chapter.

*Nico's point of view

About 1 week after

I was about to walk out of the door and start walking to our school, but my aunt stopped me.

"Nico, wait!"

"Why?"

"Your lunch. Here it is." Handing me a brown paper bag.

Strange. She doesn't pack me lunch. But anyways...

"Oh. Thanks. So, can I go now?"

"Wait. Just want to remind you of something."

"What is that so?"

"I need your decision later night, ok? So if you do come with me, I can go and walk your papers."

Oh yeah. I almost forgot. But I still haven't consulted my best friend.

"Ok. Later. Bye!"

At lunch time

"Sheez! Chemistry sucks." Ella said with a frown.

"Don't frown! It makes you ugly."

"Let's just fall in line, so we can have our lunches."

"No. I have my lunch. You just buy for yourself."

"Ok."

I sat on an unoccupied table and brought out the lunch kits. It has labels.

For Nico

For Ella

Wait, what? My aunt prepared lunch for her too? And if you don't know I told her about Ella. How kind she is to me. Sooo....

I ran to Ella and pulled her out of the line.

"Hey! I'm almost there!" She said hitting my arm.

"Aunt prepared lunch for you."

"Really?" She said with sparklimg eyes like a child who just got her lollipop.

"Yeah. So, sit down and eat."

"Thank God for the food. At least I saved a few bucks."

So we opened the lunch kits and we saw those mouth-watering food.

Mine's burger steak with homemade gravy and rice with ceasar salad on the side.

Hers is kare-kare with lots of vegetables and of course rice. And also Aunt baked 3 chocolate cupcakes and 3 carrot muffins for her.

"These are all my favorites! How did she knew?"

I just winked in response and we started eating.

Mid-way to our lunch, I decided to consult her.

"Uhm, Ella. Do you want me to go to Canada?"

"If you want to. Go."

"Why? Why should I want to?"

"It's Canada, man. And, I know you want to."

"No I don't. How about you Ella?"

"I can handle myself! Oh, silly. If I am the reason that you don't want to go, you should do it. Don't worry about me." She said with a smile. But I can see in her eyes that she's sad.

"Are you sure?"

She held my hand. I felt sparks again.

"Yes. Go. You'll come back anyways."

"That's the thing. I don't know how long I will be there."

"But still. Go. For your future."

"I don't care about my future. I care about you."

"Go to Canada, Nico. Do it for me." She said teary eyed.

"Why do you want me to go?"

"Because I care. Because it is for your sake."

--

"Aunt? I'm home!" I called.

"Come here!" She said from the kitchen.

I walked to her and said:

"Take me with you, Aunt."
