"The what?!" mom ferociously asked.
I knew mom would react like this, she's the freaker-out among the three of us.
"You've got to be kidding me bella, 3 days is a long time! you have never been this long without us" she exclaimed, see?
" Mom, it's the Eco Park Club, calm down, it's just three days, Im gonna be spending it with all the youths in here, that's what you've always wanted right? to let me enjoy here in this country instead of locking myself in the room 'ayt?" I explained calmly.
Dad was sitting in the coffee table reading a magazine, I knew he'll allow me anyway so he'd leave the business to mom.
And Maria's in the couch watching HBO.
She came here to tell me about the details, and that made me say out loud;
wrong timing maria, I'll screw you after this ha-ha.
"I know love, I know it's just that- Maria honey, you sure it's really safe in Eco Park Club?" then she turned to Maria and asked.
"Yes Tita one-hundred-percent sure, you know, we should visit there often soon, but not now because the youths are occupying there-- Hey, Tito, I'm pretty sure you know that place, it's in Malasag, Cagayan de Oro" Maria assured my mom and then asked dad.
"Malasag.. hm-- Oh! Of course I know that place, such a beautiful and peaceful park Jackie, I can assure you that our Princess will be fine there." He said, and focused once more to the magazine.
I felt I little embarrassed about this, "Mom Dad! I'm not ten anymore! I'll be turning eighteen! Cagayan de Oro's just near from here, so please." I said.
"Okay! okay! I'll let you go, but in one condition.." Mom said,
Finally!
"YES! and what condition is that?" I asked and saw Maria smilling beside me.
"Stick with Maria all the time and don't get lost and- and-- don't go with the boys you don't even know." She said, God, I thought it's only in one condition? never mind, too easy.
"Of course mom!" I slightly smiled,
" And Tita, Charles will be there too, so no worries" Maria added,
I looked at Maria and turned to mom.
"Okay fine, so when are you two going?" She asked.
"Tomorrow tita" Maria responded.
"Oh. what are you waiting for? You better start packin' your things now." Mom finally said and went to the kitchen.
Yes! I looked at Maria and she smiled and laughed.
"That was so nervous" she said, wiping the sweat all over her face.
"Yeah, I suppose it was" I glanced at her, smirking, and we took a high-five.
Maria and I went inside my room.
A tiffany-blue wall and a white ceiling, with full of photos pasted in each corners. We talked about some stuffs.
"You think I'll enjoy it there?" I asked.
" Absolutely! In fact it's my second time joining them, but the first one wasn't held at Cagayan de Oro, it was held at Davao City" she said.
"Oh I see. Davao City? I've never been there, but I heard mom and dad are going to visit there soon" I said while carrying my small pink suitcase to the bed.
"Yeah, we should go there, it's really fun, really big city and really safe" she responded, folding the clothes I prepared in the bed.
I only took the clothes and things that were necessary since it'll gonna be 3 days and 2 nights anyway.
