"Just teach them how to gain some respect, as if they don't have those. Your accepting that kind of staffs? aren't you?"

Akala ko tapos na yung sa pagitan ng staff at kay Zevana pero akala ko na naman pala ulit yun. Nasa harapan na kami ng hapag ng lumabas ang manager yata nito.

Mukhang kinakabahan at tatakot siyang lumapit sa table namin kasama yung lalaking staff din na naghatid samin.

"Hindi po sa ganon, part timers lang sila young lady and they apply here because they need allowance for their upcoming school year next year, hindi kopo lubos akalain na magkakaron ng gulo kanina kaya bumaba ako nung nalaman k—"

"Is that the way you disturb us? While we're eating?"

Yumuko yung manager ng putulin ni Zevana yung kung ano mang sasabihin niya.

God this woman, she really likes to cutting off someone.

"Hindi po, pasensya na."

"Leave us, and tell them if there's another chance that they laughed in someone in from of me, just fixed their things and leave my restaurant, I don't need a rude staffs here. Understand?" She said coldly.

Napatanga ako ng tumango yung manager.

"Copy that young lady." He said, yumuko ito bago umalis kasama yung isa pang staff.

Restaurant?

Is this hers?

Kaya ba ganun siya kung magalit kanina sa baba dahil kanya pala ito?

"Sayo iton—"

"Just eat and after that I'll drive you home." Kinagat ko yung ibabang labi ko ng putulin na naman niya ang kung ano mang sasabihin ko.

Wala akong nagawa kundi ang sundin ito, pork steak, hilaw na tofu at rare beef lang ang inorder namin pero dinagdagan niya yun ng pasta salad at wine.

Pero nanghingi ako ng iced tea, ang akala ko nga kanina ay wala silang ganon pero nagulat ako ng may maglagay nito sa tabi ko.

Yun nga yung staff kanina.

"They're prepare tita's dinner, so after we eat we'll going home. It's already 10:30 pm, you should rest after because tomorrow was another's busy days because of the meeting in our upcoming camping."

Natigilan sa ere yung steak na sana ay isusubo ko, shit! I forgot about that meeting, bukas na pala ito at bukas narin ang bayad para ron, gagi hindi pako nakakahingi kay mama.

"I..... Your ticket was paid, don't worry about that." Wika niya na mas lalong nagpatigil sakin.

"Why.."

"Don't ask me anything, just eat." Masungit niyang tugon na naman.

Tumango ako at sinunod yung gusto niya. A minutes past have come, were both here at the car, she's driving me home. It was a full dark here and i can still see the big and beautiful moon inside there.

Alam kong malalim na ang gabi at tulog na ang mama ko sa mga ganitong oras kaya naman nag-aalala ko dahil hanggang ngayon ay wala parin siyang kasama.

"Can you drive fast as you can?" I asked her out of nowhere.

She looks at me askingly. "I just want to go home, wala kasing kasama si mama at alam kong sa ganitong oras ay tulog na siya kaya please."
