Grandpa

Nauna kaming nakarating ni Professor Vale sa mansion ng lolo niya. Gaya kanina ay inalalayan niya rin akong makababa sa motorbike niya.

"Wow," usal ko nang masilayan kung gaano kaganda ang lugar ng lolo niya.

Imagine arriving at an aristocratic home where comfort and elegance coexist in a stunning environment. A breathtaking estate that radiates elegance and charm greets you as you approach the entryway. As you're ready to explore this amazing property in front of me, you may park your car comfortably in the large parking lot accessible from the driveway.

A marvelous fountain in front of the mansion is a representation of grandeur, and the sound of its tumbling water creates a calm and serene atmosphere. An opulent paradise awaits you, where the sound of the running water invites you to unwind and rest.

A spectacular swimming pool greets you as you approach the mansion's entrance. It shimmers in the light, enticing you to cool down in it or just relax and enjoy the opulence of the milieu. The pool area is furnished with sumptuous lounge chairs, rich vegetation, and umbrellas, making it the ideal place to spend time alone.

This place is sure to leave me feeling pampered and rejuvenated by its serene and lavish surroundings.

"Ano mas maganda ako o itong mansion ng lolo ko?" tumabi si Professor Vale sa tabi ko habang pinagmamasdan ko ang entrance ng mansion.

"Itong mansion," sagot ko.

"Sinasabi mo bang pangit ako, Miss Galvez?"

"Huh? May sinabi ba ako?" naguguluhan kong sambit pero inirapan niya lang ako at tinalikuran.

What the hell?

"Anong nangyari doon?" bahagya akong napatalon sa biglang pagsulpot ni George sa gilid ko.

"Tinanong ako kung ano bang mas maganda itong mansion o siya, edi siyempre sinagot ko na 'yong mansion. Tapos bigla ba naman ako iniwan, sira ba ulo ng kapatid mo?" mahabang sentensiya na sabi ko pero tinawanan lang ako ng loka. "Anong nakakatawa?"

"Hayaan mo na 'yong kapatid kong 'yon, baliw talaga 'yon minsan." natatawang aniya tsaka ako tinalikuran.

Amputa.

"Tara na, Sandra." hinawakan ni Ate Val ang kamay ko at sabay na kaming pumasok tatlo kasama si Professor Marquis.

Upon entering their mansion we were greeted by their most likely an elegant and sophisticated foyer of a hotel or a luxurious house. Their living room is dominated by a grand staircase with elaborate railings that acts as a dramatic focal point.

A warm, welcoming glow is created by their numerous crystal chandeliers hanging from their high ceilings, adding to the overall grandeur.

Mas maliwanag pa sa budhi ko 'yong bahay nila...

Their expensive windows create a natural light to illuminate the area, creating a bright and airy ambiance, na kapag nabasag mo ay talagang magigimbang ka dahil alam mo sa sarili mong mas mahal pa sa buhay mo ang bintana nila.
