I woke up feeling better. Napangiti naman ako, thanks to Lea. She's good at taking care of people. Naalala ko tuloy before, when I was sick also.

~~
"Boo, eat this na kasi!" and I will just going to shook my head. She'll get up, and about to leave.

"Oh, saan ka pupunta?" I asked.

She rolled her eyes, "Maghahanap ng mas masunuring boyfriend." she said.

Kaya kahit sumasakit ang ulo, hinabol ko pa rin.

Okay, iinom na ako ng gamot.” I said.

She just rolled her eyes then chuckled, “Love you, boo.”

Napapatawa na lang ako everytime I remembered our scenario everytime I am sick. Sa aming dalawa ni Lea, ako ang mas immune sa sakit. Ewan ko ba.

I stood up to get ready for school. Dahil nga every once a day lang ang session ko kay Lea, I request sa DEAN to still allow me na magturo sa university. Ayoko namang maghintay lang dito sa bahay na lumipas ang isang araw para makapagturo ulit.

Naligo na ako at nagpalit ng damit. I am not eating breakfast here at home because tinatamad akong kumain ng umaga. Kaya siguro ako nagkakasakit.

After fixing myself, umayos na ako para makapaghanda na.

As usual, sumabay na naman ang traffic sa umaga ko. My instant bad mood jams in.

After being stuck at traffic for about 30  minutes, nagmadali na akong nagmaneho. 20 minutes and I’ll be late in class. My class is in 9:30 in the morning.

As I made my way inside the campus, my phone rang.

It’s Farry.” I whispered. “Hello?” I greeted.

Hello, kuya. Good morning. Can you come over here sa school at around… 3 in the afternoon.” She pleased.

I nod as if she can see me, “Sure. Text me where shall I meet you. I have to go, e. Super late in class.” I said as I walked
hurriedly towards the Admin Office.

Okay, kuya. Bye!” she said.

Bye.” I said then ended the call.

After a while, I reached the Laboratory. It was shocking to see that everything  here is clean. The chairs are well-fixed, the board is surprisingly clean. I wonder who did that.

I heard footsteps approaching the door so I faced it and it swang open.

I saw a girl, wearing a mask and a laboratory gown. She’s not looking in front but she’s so much focused on a frog inside a glass container.

She continued walking without lifting his head, “Nice frog—ay anak ng!” she said ng mabangga ako.

She removed her mask, “Fransisco!” she shouted.

I crossed my arms then raise my eyebrow, “Come again, Lea?” I said.

I mean, sir Francis.” She said which caused me nod slowly.

What are you doing here?” I asked.

She smiled and showed me the container with a frog on it, “Dissect. Nagpaalam ako kay Mr.Lee na gamitin ang lab para mai-apply ko ang mga natutunan ko sa mga lessons natin. By the way, Mr.Lee asked some of teacher here to assist me pero may klase pa sila so, ikaw na lang.” she said.
