Hurting by YOU

Sixteenth

"Chop that into thin and small."

"Chop the meat in medium size."

I am busy on the kitchen as I've decided to cook for our breakfast. I woke up early to prepare this. They don't let me to chop the ingredients so they did. After they all prepared the ingredients, I am the one who will cook. They won't let me do in first place but I insist.

All the ingredients are prepared so I begin to cook. I've decided to cook is adobo and pansit especially I cook beef stake for him. I cook for many people to let them taste what Filipino food is.

First, I cook adobo and next Pansit then fried rice. I lastly cooked the beef stake for Gabriel. I know it's his favorite. So let me do this to him before the day he will go.

I prepared the foods in the table and they do the drinks and plates. I stripped the apron and hurriedly go to his room and wake him up.

"Gabriel?" I knocked as no one answered. I slowly opened the door and found him sleeping.

"Prince Gabriel" I said waking him up. "Prince Gabriel wake up."

I am shaking him gently as he didn't respond. I pinched his nose repeatedly and he already wake up.

Before he complain I greeted him smiling and greet him 'good morning'

"I cooked something downstairs, c'mon!" I invite him as I push him to stand up. "C'mon!"

"Alright, alright!" He said normally. "Let me washed my face" he said as I take back my hands. I nodded as I waited him in the door.

I grip his wrist again while I excitedly him to see and taste my cooked. We sit and I put his plate a fried rice and beef stake.

He chew no emotion as I get nervous. "Isn't good?" I questioned as he didn't answered.

Silence means yes.

"Sor..." I hissed but he stop me.

"Did someone told you that it is not good enough this?" He asked me seriously as he drink his water.

"Wala kasi sa amin Lang ako nag-luluto." I answered disappointed. "Okay lang kung Hindi masarap."

"Sino nagsabi sayo na hindi masarap?" He said puzzled. I look at him.

"Kala ko ba Hindi masarap? Yung reaction mo kasi parang Hindi masarap." I said truthfully.

He chuckled. "Kaya nga tinatanong ko sayo kung may nagsabi na ba sayo na hindi masarap ang luto mo kasi ang tanga naman nun. Kaso Wala pa naman pala nagsabi,so masarap ang luto mo." With that I smiled happily as I thank him. And We eat quietly.

I broke the silence.

"Alam mo sa araw na ito nalaman ko na isa akong anak ng royal family. Buong araw Wala ako sa sarili basta go in the flow ako sa nangyayari." I chuckled as I remembered the time before. He looks listening or I just imagining? Bahala na nga basta gusto ko magdaldal.

"I am surprised on my room. The room can fill one family and it is too wide for one person. Nanibago pa ako sa buhay namin noon nung dumating sila mama at mga kapatid ko. Na-una kasi kami ni papa pumunta dito Tapos sila susunod nalang para asikasuhin yung mga maiiwan. When my siblings arrived ,we played in the whole palace. We run and hide and seek even Pablo ,the servant stopped us because daw Baka madapa or masugatan kami. Di ba ang OA nila? My brothers and sisters request all the foods they want to eat and the table almost to full na sa sala nalang kami kumain haha. The King spoiled us even the clothes we couldn't buy before. We have even the gadgets and entertainments that our parents don't want to buy us but still he bought for us. Our parents stopped the King but the King didn't listened to our parents and bought all. And then, by that I just go in the flow and live in a fairytale life."

I look at him as he eat on his plate. I smiled as He looks he want my cooked.

Thank you for all the memories I had with you Gabriel. I will miss you. If we have a chance to see you after this , I know you hate me most but this is the way I show my love for you. I love you enough to let you go.
