Glenn Garcia
I woke up earlier than the usual para maipagluto si Maxine personally. I decided to wake up at 8 AM. Three hours for preparation, para saktong eight hours ang tulog niya. 3 AM na nga kasi siya natulog, diba.
"Manang!"
"Nasa kusina ako, Glenn."
I went there and saw her preparing.
"Nang, pwedeng ako ang magluto today?"
"Para magpabida kay Maxine, ano? Hay nako, binata ka na talaga!"
"Manang naman..."
"Oo na, sige. Pupuntahan ko lang si Lena."
Ngumiti nalang ako and she went away. Si Ate Lena, siya yung isa sa anim na helpers dito. You know... hindi naman kaya ni Manang ang lahat ng gawain lalo pa't malaki tong bahay namin.
I'm Glenn Garcia by the way.
I started cooking and everything... And after an hour, okay na lahat.
I took a nap at pagkagising ko, it's just ten minutes away from eleven o'clock.
Inayos ko lahat ng niluto ko sa tray. Oops, I forgot something. I went to our garden and picked the most beautiful rose there.
"Letter!"
Kumuha ako sa kwarto ko ng marker at ng isang maliit na papel.
Good morning, Rrincess!
I hope you like this brunch in bed. This is specially made... with love!
Love, your Prince Charming
Napangiti na lang ako nung ma-realize ko kung gaano ako kabaliw kay Maxine.
Inipit ko dun sa rose yung letter at dinala na sa guest room where she's sleeping. I placed the tray on the bedside table muna at umupo sa tabi niya. This bed is queen-sized naman.
I gently tapped her shoulder. "Maxine, wake up."
"L-let me sleep..." She said, still with closed eyes.
"Take your brunch na muna."
"Wag nang makulit..."
Napatawa ako. "Maxine, ikaw ang makulit."
"No, ikaw..."
