Chapter 6

"Good morning Kyri!" Rizza's usual cheerful greeting.

"Good morning too."

"You okay now?" Rizza asked.

"Of course, I'm okay!"

"Shut up! Nights ago I know you weren't! You're different lately. Is there anything wrong?"

"Ah... Nothing. I'm alright."

"You sure?"

Kyri nodded.

"If you say so."

"Uhm, brad..."

They heard knocks on the door.

"Hmm... Game?" Rizza enunciated. It became their habit when someone knocks most especially in the morning, they have to guess who it is, and the one who guessed it wrong will be the one who'll make their breakfast. It easier for them since not much people are living nearby.

"Newspaper boy?" Kyri guessed.

"It's Lander!" Rizza confidently answered.

"Woh? No, it's probably a newspaper boy." She couldn't think of any.

"What a feeble guess. We've been staying here for so long, there's no such boy every morning. And you know that. Alright, so you'll the one to check it, go."

"Me? Oh..."

"Faster! He is waiting!" Rizza yelled.

Kyri jumped in shock. "Okay! Okay! You're being bossy huh?" She twisted the knob and saw who it was. "Oh, bill! Sorry for having kept you waiting."

"Phil!?" Rizza bustled.

"Bill! As in electricity bill!" she shouted. "Tsh! I don't know if you should clean your ears or just really hype up about that guy." she sneered as she shook her head.

......

Early in the morning, she lay down on the chaise longue. Starting that day, hers and Rizza's schedule weren't meeting. It might be for a week or maybe for a month. "Will be alone for breakfast again." she sighed.

"Breakfast delivery!" Warren came out of nowhere.

Kyri got up abruptly. "Dear! You're giving me heart attack!" as she held on her chest.

"Oh, sorry miss."

"Call me big sis instead."

"Big sis?

"Mmm. We frequently bumped into each other, why not call me that?"

"Yeah! We often see each other and I like seeing you!"

"Really? You're flattering me huh?"

"Uhm, have you taken your breakfast already?"

"I'm about to." Kyri replied.

"Take this. This is really for you!" he showed the paper bag again.

"But..."

"You're going to eat this right?"

"By the way, where's your dad? He's been wandering again and left you like that?"

"No."

"Then, where's he?"

"Just behind you."

Kyri became immobile for seconds. "Behind me?" she slowly slued around.

Andrew raised his hand as a sign of greeting.
