I was about to go to sleep when my phone rang. Yuhan is calling. Sinagot ko na nga.
“Hello.”
“How are you doing? Pahinga ka na ah. Baka naman nag-re-review ka pa. Have some rest.”
“Magpapahinga na po. Ikaw din dapat.”
“Magpapahinga na rin. I just wanted to hear your voice first before sleeping.”
“Hmm okay. You heard it na. Tulog na tayo.”
“Okay. I’ll hang up now. Good night, Mi Amor.”
“Good night.”
He ended the call. Nilapag ko sa table ang phone ko and nahiga na. I wish he was here beside me.
Nakatulog ako at nagising ng around 4 AM. Napaaga gising ko ngayon ah. Si Yuhan kaya? Nagbasa na nga lang ulit ako. Isang linggo na lang ay mag-eexam na ako.

Exam na ni Zenaida ngayon. Tawagan ko nga. Her phone is ringing.
“Hello,” sagot nito.
“Good luck, Zenaida. I’ll see you after your exam.”
“Thank you, Han.”
“I just called to give you good luck. Stay safe.”
“Thank you once again. I’ll hang up now. Bye.”
“Bye. I love you.”
“Mahal din kita,” sabi niya sabay end ng call.
I smiled.
I looked around the room I am in right now and they’re full of sculpted houses. These will be our tokens for the sponsors. I thank my friends for helping me.
Lumabas na ako sa room at nagtungo sa kusina. Nadatnan ko ang kapatid kong si Aidan.
“Bakit nandito ka pa?”
“My stomach hurts.”
“Anong nakain mo?”
“Breakfast natin kanina. Kaso kagabi pa talaga masakit. Hindi ko lang sinabi.”
“Sinabi mo sana agad. Gaano kasakit?”
“Nine.”
“Tara sa ospital.”
“Kaya ko pa na—ah!”
“Let’s go.”
Pagdating sa ospital, sa emergency room kami dumeretso dahil mas sumakit pa ang tiyan ng kapatid ko.
“May allergy ang kapatid mo, Sir. May I know kung anong breakfast n’yo kanina?”
“Bacon and egg ang ulam namin.”
“How about dinner?”
“Chicken adobo.”
“Wala na ba kayong ibang kinain?”
“Wala. Pero ewan ko riyan sa kapatid ko.”
“How about drinks?”
