Disperas na at abala ang pamilya ko sa pagluluto ng handa para mamayang gabi sa pagsapit ng pasko.
Ako at si Ate Eri ay napagdesisyonan na pumunta muna sa apartment ni Mama at doon hanggang alas otso ng gabi at saka babalik ulit rito sa bahay.
Simula noong nangyari sa amin ni mama, hindi na kami nakapag-usap at ngayon ay wala lang kaming imikan sa isa't isa.
“Tapos ka na?” Ate Eri asked.
“Yes, Ate,” sagot ko matapos hiwain ang hotdog para sa sangkap ng spaghetti.
Like what my Father do in our house, Mama also cooked food. Nagpapatulong siya minsan sa akin ngunit pagtapos ay humihiga ako sa kama para gumamit ng cellphone.

I tried to chat Ian because I'm not sure if ever he is on his family. Ang alam ko ay hiwalay siya sa kanila ngunit hindi ko alam kung ano ang kwento ng buhay niya.
After a few minutes, he replied to my chat.

He replied. I was shocked when I read his last message. I didn't just expect that he would invite me.

Itong lalaking ’to talaga, paladesisyon sa buhay ko.
I just agreed with him since I know this day will be boring if I will stay in our house. Hindi rin naman nila ako mapipigilang umalis dahil ito lagi ang araw na malaya ako. They just don't mind me and just drink in our home—either mama.
