Sabi ng mga kaibigan ko ang malas ko daw kasi Chinese ako, because we have this weird saying na ang chinese ay para lamang sa chinese. 

Totoo naman! What if I wanna marry Ian somerhalder pala?!

Nagising ako sa tunog ng cellphone ko.

"Hello?"

"Good morning Princess." His morning voice never fails to give me chills.

"Walang good sa morning, Zach." I stood up from the comfort of my bed to go to the bathroom and do my morning rituals, you know girls maraming chenes pag dating sa mukha, lalo na ako kahit na I think it's all a burden.

Perks of being a model.

"Grumpy Grandma." He teased as I placed my phone on the top of my sink and pressed the speaker button.

"Shut up, Lolo." I teased back. Zachary Ty and I are the bestest of friends since we were kids. Yes and both of us are chinese, He's a family friend. No wait mali pala, his whole family is.

"I'm gonna fetch you today, Imma be there in an hour." Pustahan may kailangan nanaman to sakin kaya nagpapalakas, he doesn't usually give me rides, and to be honest most of the time he's rude to me!

"Sabi ko na nga ba eh totoo ang himala." I joked. 

I grabbed the brush and started brushing my brown hair na hanggang sa kalahati ng likod ko.

"Edi wag ayaw mo naman ata eh." Sinong nagsabing ayoko? For all I know I would do anything for you to fetch me everyday. Pero syempre sa utak ko lang yun sinabi, duh?

"Be here in 8:30, nine pa pasok ko."

"Ok, i'll see you later baby girl bye." Then the call ended.

Baby Girl. Suddenly I had a flashback of the day we've met.

It was  very rainy nung araw na yon, but since I'm a stubborn adventurer, mas pinili kong tumakas kay yaya para gumala sa subdivision at maligo sa ulan.

"Ah! A kitty!" I chased it, hinabol ko hanggang sa makarating ako sa playground na walang katao-tao.

That's what I thought.

"Kitty?, kitty where are you?!" I shouted. I searched but I didn't find the kitten that I was planning on adopting.

Disappointed, naglakad ako papunta sa Mini-house na part din ng playground to have some alone time sana, 'Sana' because I wanna be alone, but I wasn't. There in the mini house was a crying little boy na may yakap yakap na kitty.

"Kitty!!" I was happy, happy because I found the kitty. Happy because I found him,

I found a new friend.

"Who are you?" He asked angrily tho tears are still pooling his sharp chingky eyes.

"Ako po si Jian! I'm six." I smiled and offered my dirty muddy hands. Bakit ba? I was six and curious. Tinitigan nya ang kamay ko bago ngumiwi at naglabas ng pamunas na ini-abot nya sakin.

"What is a six year old little girl doing here alone?" He asked as he wiped his eyes with his sleeves.

"I'm adventuring! and that kitty you're holding? she's mine." I said still smiling widely. 

"What's your name?, and how old are you po?" Tanong ko.

"I'm Zachary Kiel Ty, I'm Seven." He smiled, I was mesmerized It was the best smile I've ever seen in my 6th years of existence.

"Seven ka lang pala eh! Bakit parang matanda ka na mag talk?" Curious little me asked.

He didn't answer, Instead he moved closer to me and ruffled my wet long hair.
