LEON'S POV:

NAPAHIMAS ako sa sintido ko sa pag-aalala kay Sushi. Believe me or not, iniisip ko siya dahil gusto ni Mama.

"Why isn't she answering my calls?" I asked myself. Did I do something wrong? This scenario sucks. I know that I've been rough these days.

Since "that" incident we haven't talk. I know she's upset.

Id-dial ko na sana ang cellphone number niya ulit ng may nag appear sa screen ko.

Tadhana nga naman, oo.

I answered the call and sighed. "Alyssa? Busy ba si Sushi? I need to talk to her right now may gusto akong sabihin..."

She giggled. Tinignan ko ang cellphone ko at wala naman akong ginawa. I shook my head, tsk. This girl.

Tumawa siya ng mahina, "Kuya! Tamang tama! Kung gusto mo kausapin si Ate, pumunta ka sa Tagaytay!" sigaw niya kaya naman inilayo ko ang phone.

How ironic. Sa Tagaytay din ang punta ko dahil sa project na 'to. I smiled knowing that I know this is God's plan.

I stiffle a sigh. Nagkukunwari akong pagod at hindi interesado.

Pinapakita ko naman talaga sa mga tao na hindi ako interesado para hindi ako masaktan sa huli, dahil kapag nagpadala tayo sa emosyon, masisira ang utak at puso natin. Pessimistically saying, I know that everyone will get hurt once everyone will never be aware of their responsibility as an adult or how they exercise their rights.

"Okay. I'll go."

Tumili naman siya at nakita kong pinatay na niya ang tawag. What the hell just happen? Anong nangyayari kay Alyssa?

Lumabas muna ako at umupo sa somewhat 'park' ng subdivision namin. I looked around and it's peaceful. "What a day."

I know I've been carrying things nowadays but I can't deny Sushi helped me.

I can still remember how she reacted during "that" alone mercy I have. I chuckled. I didn't expect that would happen.

"Lord, batuhin mo nga ako ng bato kung alam mong mali lahat ng ginawa ko."

I was just joking when I felt a hard thing being pressed into my skin.  I looked around again and I saw a child smiling at me.

"Hello chuya! Hihihihi, sowi po."

He seems like he's going to cry. Crap, I don't know how to handle children but I love children.

"Hello, baby! Come here." I smiled at him. I hope it works.

He smiled too, "But my mama won't allow me to go with trangert you're so kind chuya... I hope I'll tee you toon..."

I laughed a little bit, "I'm not a bad person! But your momma is really good in teaching you. Go on, go home baby, you might encounter bad guys," I said and after that he sat down just two meters away from me.
