Present time
Aldren POV.
Tinangal ko ang suot kong salamin at dahan-dahan minasahe ang mga mata ko, hindi ko alam kung ilang oras ko inedit yung chapter na binigay sa akin ni Luma.
I cant stop myself from thinking how hard to write this chapter for her, i make sure that every detail that luma wrote, is in the chapter.
Pagkatapos ko ma send yun ay sumilip ako sa pwesto ni mr ahn, mukhang hangang ngayon ay hindi pa siya nakakabalik mag-aalas 4 na.
Kasama niya si luma, mabuti na rin yun para naman makapasyal-pasyal din siya hindi yung lagi siya nakabuntot sa akin.
Pasyal?? Mmm.
Napatingin ako sa lamesa ko and para iyong kinalaykay ng manok sa kalat-like what luma used to say, she keeps cleaning my desk kahit sinasabi ko na huwag, kasi baka mamaya may biglang pumasok dito at may makakitang lumulutang na mga gamit edi nagulantang sila.
"Hindi ko ito ginagawa dahil kay luma, i do this kasi ano....gusto ko lang"
Bulong ko pa, i remove all the scratch papers and organize my papers and some stuffs. I think thats its for today makagala nga.
Makagala? Tama nakakapagod din magtrabaho i also need to rest.
Rest saan? Mmm saan nga ba?
What if some park kaya lang masyado nang madilim. What if sa.... Mmmm? San kaya maganda?
*Knock..knock*
"Yes come in"
"Hi Mr Aldren I just want to bring back your watch po here."
Napatingin naman ako kay luma na kapapasok lang din, kumaway pa siya sa akin at ngumiti, agad ko naman iniwas sa kaniya ang tingin ko, siguro ngayon she knows that i already read the chapter she made, and i dont want her to feel bad. I just need to act like its nothing and act like everything is normal.
But what if dahil din sa pag arte ko na okay lang, ma disappoint siya or maybe she feel bad about it, naglakas siya ng loob to write at ito ako sinasawalang bahala lang.
Ano ba yan *agh ang hirap.
"Oh thanks mr ahn, nagenjoy ka ba?"
"Po?"
Napalingon naman agad ako kay mr ahn, nakita ko naman si luma na nagpipigil nang tawa sa gilid nito. Napatingin naman si mr ahn sa gilid niya na parang sinisipat kung saan ako nakatingin.
"Yes! mr ahn im talking to you, nagenjoy ka ba?"
"Sa pagiikot po?"
"Yes!"
"Ah yes naman po. Nag enjoy po ako"
"Thats good"
"Btw Mr aldren, uuwi na po kayo?"
"Why say that?"
"Nagliligpit na po kayo ng gamit eh"
Takang tanong niya while pointing at me putting my laptop at my bag,
"Good eyes, yeah i already send the chapter to deter i would like you to check it for me if you need help just ask our editors or better just give it to them, its their job, whatever"
"Are you okay Mr. Aldren?"
Parang nawe-weirdohan niyang tanong i just nod at him. I put the watch in my pocket and smile to mr ahn.
"I will call it a day Mr ahn, just let deter know"
"Ano po sasabihin ko if he ask where?"
"Just make things up, mr ahn we're writers, i trust you"
