VALID PASSION

Chapter 9

I wake up with my heavy bedcover at my studying area. Exactly five in the morning my clock alarmed. Nakatulog na pala ako sa sobrang dami ng reviewers. Hindi ako siguro binangon kaya't kinumutan na lamang.

Inayos ko ang higaan dahil wala na doon si ate. Niligpit ko ang books na nagkalat dahil sa nakalimutan ko kagabi. I turned off the lights and just opened the curtains.

Dawn atmosphere feels.

I'm going downstairs when I heard my sister's voice and yaya's helping my sister getting all the ingredients that she needs. Nakita kong tinitingnan at sumusunod lang ang mga yaya sa gawi niya. I don't know if she learned to cook by herself or she take some cookery lessons.

Our yaya's let my sister cook like she master all her moves.

It looks like she's cooking some sautè. It's her skills when it comes to cooking. Bukod sa pagiging maarte ay alam niyang mag-luto.

"Seriously? Maybe you smell my foods Avi that's why you're awake. I'm sorry, my delicious food disturbed you sleeping beauty." She's an actress. I rolled my eyes and sat at dining table.

Nagtimpla nalang ako ng aking dark chocolate to increase my energy dahil inaantok pa ako. 

"Remember, hindi ka pa bayad sa utang mo nakaraan!" She rolled her eyes.

"Pagsabihan mo rin ang mga fanatics mo na lubayan na ako. Ikaw kaya ang kusang tumanggap ng gifts nila para sa'yo!" I said it without any hesitation.

"Try it Witch. That's an Omelette" She gave me a half of omelette and cup of rice. As I rolled my eyes. "It's just an egg with hams and onions." She faint smiled. Sister Avril just back to the kitchen finishing her products. I mean foods she cook.

"Well, not bad." I sarcastically shrugged. "It's tasty thou." a last whisper word. If she heard that she will praise herself and take that as a compliment in a whole year, In a whole life.

After a few minutes cooking she serve her food with our yayas.

If she's not a child actress or model, she's always at kitchen or maybe at cookery class. Also, she's always the Spoiled Brat Witch.

My sister serve an omelette, bacon, sausages, sliced green apple and bread toasted in butter.

"O-oh, it's a lot. You're acting weir-" she cut

"Weird? Ayon na ba ang tingin mo sa magagaling magluto. It's not that a lot Avi. Please just say, I'm expert of my skills. Just admit to yourself that you are wonder of my cooking skills." She's getting on my nerves again. Umagang umaga.

I refuse to rolled my eyes "Oh, let's just eat. Come on Yaya Mat and Yaya Ely!! Let's eat!! Mamaya na 'yan."

They're ready to take a seat when we heard a beeped. For sure that's our Lola. Byahe ng byahe. Kuya Rojer opened the gate.

Inalalayan ko si Lola at kinuha naman ni Avi ang kaniyang bag at documents sa loob ng sasakyan.

"Where did you go Lolamy? Lagi ka nalang may pinupuntahan." Sabat ko habang na sa hapag kainan kami.

"For sure important business, Avi. Kain na kayo La" Avril said.

"Y-Yeah, as usual our school needs a good handler." I saw how Avril's eyes got big. Hindi ko alam kung anong ibabato kong reaksyon.

"Y-you sure about that, Lola?" My sister's really!!!

"Lola, that's a good thing. You need to take time for yourself or just rest. Having vacation at calm places." I gave them faint smile. Lumingon sa'kin si Avril na nakataas ang kilay.
