Hidden Love

Errands

"I'm home...!" I yelled while I entered the front door of my house, very happy to get away from Lessy, I'll never have to deal with him for the rest of the day.

But no one answered. So I strode my way to the kitchen where I found a note on the fridge.

'Be home late today honey...so as your Dad. I left some food inside the fridge and you can order something for dinner, i left some money on the food bank. Just order anything you want. See you later...!'

'MOM'

P.S: Pick up your brother at 5, o.k? Thanks... Love ya!

Great..! Home alone today, just what I needed being alone in a freaking mansion myself, yep! You hear me right, mansion! My parents are freaking loaded!

My mom has her own shops, different kind of shop. RTW, accessories, gadgets and furnitures. Even coffee shops and a bakery. That's why I rarely see her. Then there goes my Dad, he owns a gaming company, and he's definitely a gamer himself. He spend time trying to create new games every now and then. And he's definitely home maybe once a month or maybe a year. Yep, that's my Dad for you.

But even though I rarely see them, they actually trying to spend some time with us their child every year. We would spend a week or two traveling anywhere we wanted.

Sighing, crumbling the piece of paper in my hands and throwing it at the bin near me. And open the fridge to check what food Mom left for snack for us. I found a whole egg pie inside... It's from one of her bakery and one of my favorite pies she bake... Oh! How I love Mom! She really knows how to brighten my day.

I quickly put it inside the microwave oven to heat it and happily went to my room upstairs, changing into something comfy. Before skipping back to the kitchen putting my pie on a plate and merrily went to my own game room. Yap, I have my own game room as I said my parents are loaded.

Every other day the cleaning lady come here clean. But other than that were on our own. Mom and Dad never spoilt us especially me.

They decided that being independent is the way we should grow up and yep me and my lil bro are always home alone because as I said my parents are always at work.

I ate my pie in peace, while I watch a movie, it was a comedy one. It was so funny that I didn't even realize I almost ate the whole pie.

Pushing it away from me, Jayvy (My lil bro) will have his moment that I didn't wanna see or hear, if I didn't left some for him.

Glancing at the clock at the wall when the credit rolls on the t.v screen. 4:00 it read, guess I have to pick Jayvy now.

I quickly stood up and turn off the t.v and prepare to go out. Might as well get something to cook for dinner. I'll make Jayvy's favorite meal Tokwa't Baboy (Tofu and Pork).

I pull a hoodie on and headed to Jayvy's nursery. I was right on time as I saw a few parents pull off the nursery, and greeted by a very happy Jayvy, he quickly runs to my side jumping up and down.

"Big Sissy! Big Sissy! Look! I got a star!" He proudly said holding up the back of his palm to me. "Oh wow! How did you get a star?" I ask very happy to see him very happy.

"I draw this, my teacher says its beautiful then she gave me a star." He innocently brag his drawing making my smile go wider. "Aww! This is beautiful..." It's a picture of my Mom, Dad, me, Jayvy with a lil girl beside her in pigtails in the background was our big house.

"Ahmm... Looks like you draw someone else in this. Who could that be?" I tease, pretending to think who it might be, but I already know its Marilou, his best bud he's always with. His best friend since he enter this nursery.
