Kevin’s POV

I was in the kitchen baking pizza for our costumers. Ngayong araw, medyo maraming guests dahil weekend kaya masaya ako. my restaurant is starting to get popular and I’m happy dahil unti unti ko ng nabubuo ang pangarap ko. Ang pangarap namin ng mahal ko.

Sadly, I’m just  the one doing this alone.

I’m the head chef in my own resto. Simula kasi ng namatay si Lea, its like my whole world has been shattered and broken down into pieces. Its like she get my world, my life and my heart away from me and take it all with her.

Simula ng nawala siya, nawalan na rin ako ng ganang mabuhay. Parang tumigil ang mundo ko, pero hindi tumitigil ang mundo sa pag ikot kaya nagdesisyon akong ifocus ang sarili ko sa ibang bagay at yun ay ang pagtupad sa mga nasira naming pangarap. Para san nga ba lahat ng efforts ko kung wala naman akong taong pag aalayan nito? I thought to myself. Pero alam kong di siya magiging masaya kung makikita niya akong malungkot so I’m striving now to move on.

3 years na ang nakakalipas. Masyado ng matagal pero di pa rin ako nabitaw. Hindi ko alam kung anu ang dahilan.

I was putting the pizza in our big manmade oven when suddenly my phone rung. I always put my phone in my uniform’s pocket so that I could receive important calls from anybody mostly about sa company. And yes, aside from being a chef, I’m also a son of one of the best and successful business tycoon here in the Philippines.

I never bothered to look at the caller id coz I was rushing to put the pizza in the oven.

‘’hello? Whos this?’’ I asked. I just wish this is not dad. Baka kulitin nanaman ako nun.

‘’hello Kevin?’’ I heared my ate on the other line. She’s sobbing.

‘’ate, something wrong?’’ I asked. Is it all about business again? I thought so. Maybe. Mostly kasi ng mga tawag niya is about business. She’s having a problem managing it for dad is quietly quiting his job for almost two months. And as you can see, my ate cant handle the job very well coz obviously, she’s kind of weak and soft to be in a high position in our company. Baka she’ll gonna seek for advice. Or worse, something went wrong.

‘’yes, dad was rushed in the hospital.’’ She said while crying. I know she’s crying.

‘’why what happened to him?’’

‘’inatake siya sa puso in his office kanina. Medyo malala ang lagay niya dahil di agad siya nasugod sa ospital. I don’t know what to do either. I cant tell mom. Magaalala lang yun ng husto that’s why I called you.’’

‘‘okay, I’ll be there in a minute. Saang ospital kayo?’’ then sinabi niya na yung address ng ospital so I hanged up.

‘’chef richard, can you please handle this for me. May pupuntahan lang akong emergency.’’ I asked one of our chef and my friend Richard para siya na ang mamahala doon sa binibake ko.
