Sleeping with My Professor

Chapter 16

Chapter 16

I am currently on my way to Andre Ville. Today is the 4th birthday of Zie's daughter, Cloe.

I miss being able to come here again. The air in the Philippines really has a different feel that you'll long for.

Bumalik ako ng florida last last year. Tinawagan ako ni Tito Niel para bantayan muna si Jamaica. Inaaccept ko agad dahil nangako rin ako kay mama na gusto ko nandyan ako sa tabi ni Jamaica habang lumalaki sya.

Nagtrabaho si Tito ng 2 years at walang magbabantay sa mga bata. Masaya mag stay ron. Pero hindi talaga sa ibang bansa ang hinahanap ko.

Finally, I'm home, and I'm staying here for good now.

Pagkarating ko ng Andre Ville nakita ko agad ang tent sa labas ng bahay nila. Maraming bisita lalo na mga bata.

"Tita ninang!" sinalubong ko ng yakap at halik si Cloe.

"Ara! Namiss kita" yakap sakin ni Zie.

"Ang bango, amoy florida"

"Tita ninang where's my gift po"

"Your gifts are in the car, open them" Sinamahan ko sya sa back seat para kunin ang mga pasalubong ko.

Marami ang dala ko para sa kanya. Mahilig rin kasi sya sa mga laruan gaya ni Jamaica nong bata pa.

"Wow chocolate"

"But baby, you're not allowed to eat too much chocolate because it can give you problems with your teeth, do you want that, baby Cloe?" tanong sa kanya ni Zie. Agad naman tong umiling.

"No mommy"

"Okay very good, come to daddy muna"

"Solo mo na" Tinawanan nya naman agad ako.

"Ano kamusta buhay sa florida? Aalis ka pa?"

"I'll stay here, dito ang mundo ko"

Yes, I can say that this is my world here. I feel it more and I'm comfortable here, I don't need to adjust. I was happy in Florida because I was with my sibling. It's like I stood as their mother for two years. Uncle Niel got married again after 4 years, I'm happy for him because he deserves to be happy again since he's a good person.

Let's always choose to be happy because we never know, maybe when we're gone from this world, that's when we'll realize we should have done everything we wanted, and what would have made us happy while we were still alive.

Gabi na ako nakauwi galing kila Zie. Tinulungan ko muna sila mag ligpit ng mga gamit.

"Baby Molly i miss you so much" Iniwan ko si Molly kila Zie. Gusto ko nga sana syang isama sa florida kaso bawal raw. Kaya wala akong choice kundi iwan muna sya. Buti nakilala pa nya ako.

Habang hinihintay kong matapos kumain si Molly. My phone suddenly vibrated and made a sound.

Nicy: Thank goodness you answered! I miss you and I need you.

Me: Me too. Where are you ba?

Nicy: I'm on my way home now. I've been calling you earlier, but you weren't answering. I thought you might be busy.

Me: Kakauwi ko lang galing kila Zie, Birthday ni Denisee.

Nicy: Okay so, let's meet tomorrow please if you're not busy and I'll also tell you why i need you.

Me: Okay, see you.

I woke up early because today I'll see Nicy again after 2 years. We've been able to talk, but only through video calls, so I'm excited to see her in person again.
