Zeke and the Secret Agents (Taglish) | #wattys2018

Popcorn Ready To Pop

         I got back to my office and collapsed. Oh , what have I got myself into!

         Pagkatapos ng ilang minuto, Dad Rudy hasted into my office

         He slammed the door.

               "Anak! He yelled"

         I braced myself. Nako, patay na talaga ako.

         Tiningnan niya ako sa mata. He was like a popcorn ready to pop. Speaking of popcorn......ang sakit na ng tiyan ko. Gutom na ako hindi pa ako nakakain ng luch. Pero kailangan pa itong maghintay.

               " Alam mo ba kong ano ka importante ang nawala mo Zeke?" he began.

         I was about to answer, but he interrupted me. 

                " It's the deed of to this land! at yun lang ang proof natin na tayo ang may-ari ! Kung merong masamang tao na makakuha sa envelope nayon, we'll lose Tyler's Movie Critique!" sigaw niya.

         Lagot na talaga ako.

         Pagkatapos umalis ni dad naka imagine ako na nakuha ni Nikki Reyes ang envelope at sumisigaw ng 

              "It's mine, mine, mine!"

         Kilala niyo ba si Nikki Reyes? Siya ang unfriendly competitor ng business namin.

         I felt ashamed. Parang nawala ko ang lahat. Just then nakita ko ang picture ko sa facebook na nanalo ng isang marathon. If I can run a 26.219 miles marathon how hard could it be to find an envelope with a stamp?

         Hapon na ngayon. Kailangan kong ma hanap an envelope by 12:00 pm the next morning. Meron pa akong 23 hours. Meron na akong naisip kung pano ko mahanap ang envelope.

         Number one ang keep calm.And I did. Pagkatapos tinawagan ko ang cousin ko for help pero wala siya. Pero ang aswering machine ang nag pick up.

                "I'm not home just leave a message beep!"

        Then I called my friend Lawrence we met in the marathon. Pero ang parin aswering machine ang nag pick up.

               " I'm not home I'm doing adventure stuff just leave a message beep!"

         Tinawagan ko ang aking brother na si Kyle. Akala wala siya I was about to hang up when,

                " Hello?"

                " Hi..Um Kyle pwede mo ba akong tulungan maghanap ng envelope na merong red stamp ?"        

                " Ahh sige pupuntahan lang kita diyan sa office mo"

                "Thank you talaga Kyle"

         Good thing Kyle was home or I would've been alone. 2 is better than 1.

          For a second, I thought about calling Leonn. But I was too embarrassed.
