"Bilisan mo na dyan at kumain na tayo" sabi ni Mama pagkatapos mag handa ng pag-kain.
Umupo ako at inumpisahan ito ni Mama sa pagdadasal.
"Amen" we both mumbled.
"Chop Suey?" Malungkot akong tumingin kay Mama.
"Oh, bakit? Stay Healthy!" Sabi niya at nag kibit balikat.
Sabagay halos puro meat na kami this past few weeks. Chop Suey is not that bad, anyway. Kumakain naman ako ng Chop Suey, I like the way vegetables are mixed up with milk.
When we're eating, Mom opens a conversation about my birthday. It's my debut.
"Anyways anak..." She approached.
"Hmmm?" I looked at her.
"What's your plan for your 18th birthday? May naiisip ka bang pwede nating venue?" She asked.
Venue? Binabalak ba niya nag mag pagarbong party? Hindi na. Sayang lang.
"Venue? Hindi na ma. Dito lang tayo sa bahay," sabi ko at pinagpatuloy ang pagkain.
"Bakit hindi? Isang beses mo lang mararanasan ang debut" she explained.
What for? Is it just a normal day? I just turned 18 that day and what? It was always a normal day the next day.
"I'm okay to be with you, Ma. Also to my friends." Sagot ko.
She smiles at me and continues to eat.
"Anak" She approached again.
I looked at her waiting for her to say something.
"Do you want to live in Osaka? Actually, yung Tita Tessy mo nag offer ng trabaho. Maganda yung offer niya. We can live with her or pwede naman hahanapan niya tayo ng apartment para tayo lang dalawa. I think, Osaka is for us? We can live there.." She smiles.
Osaka, Japan? Is it too far from the Philippines? New Environment?
"Ma. Kaya naman natin dito, diba?" I said with worried eyes.
She bit her lower lip, "You're going to a college. Tyaka isa pa, hindi pa naman ngayon. You can think about it after your Senior...Also, I want what's better for you. Your decisios matter to me, Anak." She said and I know that.
I nodded. Ang akala ko naman ay agad-agad. Kung ganoon, hindi talaga ako handa. Hindi pa ako handa iwan sila Naya.

Tomorrow/School
Gumawa si Pres ng group chat kagabi for research. He reminds us about it. Mabuti nga ay naalala niya akong isali.
It's another day for this week. Malapit na ang Booth Program. Ang alam ko ay may mga performance din from other sections. I must be happy if it happens.
Major subjects, done! I've been focusing for a while in Stats. Ms. Valdemor said that we have a long quiz next week kaya naman pag-aaralan ko 'iyon after the program.
It's lunch time. Mabuti nga at nag sama-sama na kami ulit apat. Masaya ako na nakakasama na rin namin si Cydren. He's a part of us. I'm happy that Elijah and Pat welcomed him with a warm approach. Para bang ang tagal-tagal na nilang nakakasama si Cydren. I'm happy for him cause he is with us. Ang akala ko nung una ay hindi ko siya makakasama nang ganito. But, here we are.
