Ceaseless (COMPLETED)

Chapter Nineteen

Chapter 19: I Miss You, Pancake

---

SATURDAY morning.

I was in Mc Kinley circle doing a little of my jogging routine every month.

It was not really every month because I got lazy. Dagdag pa ng kapayatan ko. Ouch on that part. But suggestion yun ni Papa dahil magkakabilbil daw ako.

Tutal, wala naman akong ginagawa sa bahay dahil may Super Manang kami, nag-jogging ako para mag-burn ng baby fats.

I sat on a swing on the left side of the circle. Maliban sa swing ay may mga slides, monkey bars at see saw sa di kalayuan. Wala pang bata dito dahil masyado pang maaga.

I used my feet to lift myself on the swing, and swing. Mahina lang. Sapat para makainom ako ng tubig. I am on the middle of drinking my water on a reusable cup when a bike suddenly stopped infront of me.

Napahinto ako seeing Josh smiling. He was wearing a sweat pants and a black shirt... as always.

"Hey! Good Morning!" I greeted him.

"I'm not expecting you here." He said.

"What do you mean?"

"I'm always here every Saturdays lately. Tutal kilala na ako ng guard, pinapapasok n'ya ako dito."

"Talaga ba?" I asked.

He nodded. "Actually nalilibot ko 'to. Umaabot ako ng 16th street mula sa main gate. I'm planning if I can buy a lot or a house here. What do you think?"

"Buy? A lot? Or a house?" I asked.

Ngumiti sya ng makahulugan. I rolled my eyes.

He positioned the stand of his bike and proceeded on the other swing who's opposite on mine. Bale magkaharap kami ngayon.

"Tomorrow's Miguel's arrival." He opened up.

"Yup."

"Are you excited?"

I just looked on his face. I didn't answer so he just laugh out of me.

"Bakit?"

"Why do you looked so tensed? Tinatanong lang kita."

"Of course. I'm excited about Miguel's comeback. It's been... 3 months. I miss him so much." I honesltly said.

"He made his whiskers grew well. Nakita mo na?"

"Hindi. Paano mo nakita?"

"Facetime."

"Nag-fefacetime kayo?"

"Lately. Always asking about you."

"Bakit hindi na lang ako ang tawagan nya?"

"Sabi daw kasi ng Kuya mo, busy ka."

"Kuya Rave?!" I exclaimed.

"Sino lang ba Kuya mo? Dalawa lang kayo diba?" Pilosopo n'yang sabi.

Kainis si Kuya. So sya pala ang dahilan kung bakit hindi ako kino-contact ni Miguel. How could they communicate with each other? Akala ko ba okay lang kay Kuya na mag-boyfriend ako. Eh bakit sya nangingialam?

"Anyway, I'm done exercising. Do you?"

"Oo. Nagpapahinga lang ako."

"Let's eat. Libre ko."
