A Love To Cherish (Guontiveros).

Home(?).

A few minutes later...

They arrived at Risa's house, tinulungan ni Alice si Risa para bitbitin ang mga pinamili niya

"Tulungan ko na po kayo Mam Risa" Alice offered happily

"Ok, thank you Alice" Risa

Nakapasok na sila sa bahay ni Risa...

"san po ba ito ilalagay Mam Risa?" Alice

"pakibaba nalang diyan Alice, thank you" Risa

"Upo ka muna diyan" Risa added

"Ok po" Alice

"gutom ka na ba?" Risa asked

"medyo po" Alice

"gusto mo padeliver na tayo?" Risa

"di po kayo marunong magluto?" Alice

"hmm...nasanay kasi ako na yung late husband ko ang nagluluto" Risa

"gusto niyo po pag lutuan ko kayo?"
Alice happily offered

"ok lang?" Risa

"ok lang po Mam Risa, actually medyo mahilig po ako magluto" Alice

"Wife Material ka pala Alice, siguro ang swerte ng boyfriend mo" pabirong pagkakasabi ni Risa

"naku wala po akong love life Mam Senator" Alice

"sa ganda mong yan?" Risa

"may mga nanliligaw po pero di ko po sila gusto eh" Alice

"ano ba type mo Alice?" natatawang pagtatanong ni Madam Chair

"secret po" Alice said while giggling

After that conversation Alice stood up and started cooking in Risa's kitchen while Risa went up stairs to change her clothes

"Alice, magpapalit lang muna ako ng damit ah maiwan muna kita jan..." Risa

"ok po Mam Risa" Alice said while chopping some ingredients

Bumaba na si Risa at nakita niyang busy si Alice sa pagluluto kaya pinuntahan niya ito

"Ano bang lulutuin mo para sakin Alice?" Risa asked

"Just wait po... I will make sure na magugustuhan niyo po to" Alice

"ok! Be faster plss, excited na ko eh" Risa

After a few minutes...

Tapos na magluto si Alice hinain niya na ito sa lamesa

"Mam Risa luto na po, kain na po kayo" Alice offered 

"wow adobo, medyo matagal na akong di nakakain ng adobo ah... Mukang masarap to ah?"

"syempre naman po, kain na po tayo?" nakangiting pagkakasabi ni Alice

"sige, sabay na tayo" Risa said while getting some plates and utensils

Nag kwe-kwentuhan sila habang kumakain...

"So alice why are you running pala nung muntik na kita masagasaan?" Risa asked sabay subo

"may nakita po kasi akong aso and naawa po ako dahil medyo malakas po yung ulan and mukang mag-isa lang po siya so hinabol ko po and then yun nadulas po ako" Alice

"ow, mahilig ka pala sa mga aso" Risa

"yes po, actually meron po akong aso his name is cash but I prefer calling him cash-cash po" Alice

"ahh ok... So anong pinagkaka-abalahan mo sa buhay? Are you working naba? Do you have bussiness?" Risa

"I'am a Mayor po sa Bamban, Tarlac and I also have bussiness po" Alice

"ohh so parehas pala tayong nasa politiko" Risa

"yes po, I actually admire your work, of how brave you are po and I wanted to be like you po someday Mam Risa" Alice

"thank you" Risa

And they continued to eat while getting to know more of each others interest and especially politics

Tapos na sila kumain and Risa volunteered to wash the dishes while Alice is seating on the couch watching some kinds of cartoon

Natapos na si Risa maghugas at sinamahan niya si Alice manood

"para ka palang bata Mayor" Risa said giggling

"ang cute po kasi nung mga characters eh" nahihiyang pagkasabi ni Alice

"di mo naman sila kamuka ah?" Risa

"h-huh? what do you mean po?" Alice questioned curiously

"Ha? May sinabi ba ko?" pakukunwari ni Risa

"Meron po talaga, narinig ko po" Alice said and pout

"nakuu wala yun Mayor" Risa said giggling

"cute naman nito" Risa's thought abt Alice's pout

Suddenly Alice's phone rang

"wait lang po Mam Risa I just need to answer this po it's my dad" Alice said

Lumabas si Alice at sinagot ang tawag

"hello dad?" Alice

"Alicia where are you? Alice's dad said in screaming speech

"dad, I'm in my friends house po" natatakot na pagkasabi ni Alice

"what? You are in your friends house? Di ka man lang nag paalam?" Alice's dad said and mapapansin sa boses nito na galit siya

"dad I'm not a baby anymore? I'm 38 na and yet needed ko pa mag paalam sayo? When I wanted to visit my friend? Thats unfair dad" Alice said na para bang naiinis na ito

"I'm just protecting you my little princess, don't be upset I just wanted you to be safe ok?" mahinahong pagkakasabi ng tatay niya

"I can protect my self dad" Alice

"I don't care if you can protect your self, ipapasundo na kita ngayun kung nasan ka man Alicia, sumunod kana if ayaw mong lalo akong magalit sayo"

And Alice's dad end the call...

Lumabas naman si Risa dahil narinig niyang umiiyak si Alice

"oh why are you crying Alice?" Risa

"why do I need to obey him always? Why can't I have my own decisions in life? Why can't I be brave for my self, of who I really was?" at umiyak pa lalo si Alice pagkatapos niyang sabihin iyon

"You know Alice, Life is unfair for everyone, if it's not unfair with you then it's not Life it's a Lie" Risa adviced

"kaya mo yan Alice I'm just always here for you." Risa added

At may biglang bumusinang sasakyan sa harap ng bahay ni Risa and Alice knows na yun na ang sundo niya

"pasensiya na po Mam Risa pero aalis na po ako, andito na po ang sundo ko" Alice said while trying herself to calm down

"di ka na ba mas magtatagal pa, Alice?" Risa offered

"Hindi na po Mam Risa I'm ok na po thank you po sa pag imbita sakin" Alice said

"ok your welcome Mayor, mag iingat ka" Risa

"Thank you po" Alice said

At kinuha na ni Alice ang bag niya saglit sa loob ng bahay ni Risa at sumakay na rin siya sa sasakyan at umalis

And Risa watched Alice's car to leave until she couldn't see it anymore.
