THE MEAN BOY

This is not a story. I hate writing too cheesy, too romantic, too tragic stories using cloak's mask. So let me say this is a story behind Cloak Dagger. The usual Cloak; mean.

Once again, this is not a story! This is my online journal, journal of a mean boy. It doesn't follow a plot. Shoo! 

This is based on my experiences in life.

1. The Tinola Wannabe

During vacation my usual wake up time was between 11:00 AM up to 2:OO PM. Yeah, I kinda love my bed and my pillow more than anything else. That day I woke around 10:30 AM.

I went to my bathroom to do my morning rituals: washing my face and my mouth, brushing my set of white teeth, and checking my notifications on facebook/twitter/instagram while sitting on my throne. Yeah, I often bring my phone there. So there's a 70% possibility that my phone will dive itself into the cold water. Whatever, I can buy new phone. Heheee!

After doing my morning rituals, I went downstair. Yeah, downstair. Our house has a second floor + an attic. My room was on the right side when you go upstair, it was beside my brother's room. In front of my room was a terrace where you can bang your friends. Joke! Haha!

Going back to my story, as I went downstair. No one is around, as in my brother was not here, my dad and my mom. We don't have maids or servants but sometimes my cousins were here. So I scanned the whole house and found nothing, but myself.

I went to the fridge to check if they left a food for me, so I went to the fridge. Redundant? lol

As I open the fridge's door. My phone rang inside my short's pocket. I lazily answered my phone, "Yeah?" said using my very amazing kitchen voice.

Yeah right, kitchen voice since I was on the kitchen. Ha ha ha, verry funny Cloak.

"Gising ka na pala?" said mom. I want to answer her like this Ay hindi, baka tulog pa ako. I rolled my eyes secretly. Ha ha ha!

Look? She's asking me if I was already awake. Didn't she hear that I answered her phone call? Ugh, I just don't get it why people tends to ask silly questions when they already knew the answer.

Back to the phone call with my mom, "Iniwanan ka namin ng pagkain sa ref.." I opened the fridge and found raw meat, eggs, my daily tetra pack of milk, softdrinks, zesto, bar of chocolates, yakult, and so much more. On the lower compartment were veggies and fruits. Yeah, we have a awesome fridge like that. My mom doesn't want us to be gutom.

"So? How can I eat these raw meat?" I said sarcastically. My mom sighed, "We left a note on the ref, nand'yan ang mga instructions kung paano mo lulutuin 'yung...tinola." 

My eyes went bigger like a retarded owl as well as my jaw dropped with this SURPRISE!

CLOAK! YOU'LL COOK A DISH! A REAL DISH! A F*CKING DISH!

"Hindi ko alam 'to 'my.." I answered with my voice a bit toned down. I think she is rolling her eyes to me now, "Kaya nga may instruction diba? Bilis na *insert my name here* magugutom ka sige ka.." she said. I hang up and start looking for the ingredients inside the ref. 

My mind was debating about what is sayote? what is that and this..

I'm really not fond of cooking, but I'm obliged to cook now or else I could kill myself starving to death. Well, I know how to cook pancit canton, to fry eggs, hotdogs, bacons. Basta all kind of frying basta hindi tumitilamsik. That really sucks when the cooking oil is having their sweet revenge against your sensitive skin.

So I follow the instructions, from washing the raw chicken meat and vegetables. And for the win, peeling the veggies.

I get the peeler and started peeling the sayote. That was sticky, everytime I see that fvckin sayote I remember peeling my girlfriend's clothes. Oh girls, kidding! 

So back to the mind blowing 'peeling, chopping, frying, and different terms used in cooking. What ever you called those, I had finished cooking.

Yay! Viola! Bravo! Magnifico! Hurrah! Mabuhay Philippines!

It looks so scrumptious, delicious, appetizing, and mouth-watering! Yeah! It really looks a good and edible food, no sarcasm. I'm good and dexterous. *rolls eye*

I put that Tinola on a glass bowl. I also finished cooking a rice. Definitely, I know how to cook rice. Yay! Achievement woohooo!

TASTING TIME!

Suddenly, I heard footsteps coming.

Yay! It was them! My mom, dad, and my brother! Good wasn't it? 

"Nakaluto ka na pala.." sabi ng mom ko. Tumango lang ako at humigop ng sabaw, SARAP!

Ganito pala talaga ang feeling kapag ikaw ang nagluluto, feeling mo ang sarap sarap ng niluluto mo, feeling mo ikaw ay isang chef, feeling mo pwede ka ng mag-asawa dahil marunong ka ng magluto. Feeling lang naman hehe!

"Patikim nga!" she held my fork and my spoon. As soon as she scoop the soup and put it on her mouth, "Ohhh taste nice but a little bit salty..konting practice pa.." syempre natuwa naman ako. Masarap naman daw hahahaha!

Tapos noong nakita n'ya yung mga gulay na nasa bowl, doon na kumunot ang noo n'ya..

"Binalatan mo ba yung mga gulay? Bakit may balat balat pa? Tingnan mo dad, diba balat 'yan?" lumapit naman si dad at sinabing. "Oo, balat 'yan.."

I stared at them blankly, "Okay lang naman may balat eh. Kayo lang naman mahilig kumain ng gulay na 'yan."
