When they woke up,it was the same routine.Except,when they got downstairs,Emma told them that there was no school that day because of the storm."Ano na kaya gagawin natin?"tanong ni Kim."Kim,Xian,may niluto akong sopas dyan,kumain na muna kayo."sabi ni Emma.
Pumunta sila sa kusina at kumuha ng bowls para sa sopas."Nay,masarap po."sabi ni Kim."Kim,dahan-dahan ha?Mainit yan."sabi ni Emma.Mahilig kasi si Kim sa sopas.Ng matapos sila,umupo muna sila sa sala at nag-isip isip kung ano gagawin.
"Pwede kayong magbasa.Diba malapit na yng book report niyo?"sabi ni Emma."Paano nyo po nalaman?"tanong ni Xian."Tinawagan kami ng teacher nyo."sabi ni Allan."Oo nga pala no,Xian,yung books natin nasa taas nakalimutan ko."sabi ni Kim.
Pumanik sila papuntang library para makuha ang mga libro.They started reading in the library with a cup of hot cocoa.Halos dalawang oras sila nagbabasa ng tumigil ang ulan and the sun rose.They decided to go downstairs and do something outside.
"Let's ride our bikes."sabi ni Xian."Sige"sabi ni Kim.Xian went across the street to his house to get his bike and rode it to Kim's house.Pagdating nya dun,Kim was waiting for him.They rode their bikes really fast around the village.Xian was going around Kim a lot."Bakit ang bagal mo?"tanong ni Xian,"Sakit ng paa ko eh." sabi ni Kim
Xian got off his bike at inalalayan si Kim makababa sa bisikleta nya.They sat on the edge of the sidewalk.Xian checked Kim's foot."Uwi na muna tayo namamaga yung paa mo,hindi mo sinabi sa akin."sabi ni Xian."Makakalakad ka ba?"tanong niya."Siguro."sabi ni Kim.
Kahit na sinabi ni Kim na makakalakad sya,inalalayan parin sya ni Xian."Buti na lang hindi pa tayo nakakalayo."sabi ni Xian.They pushed their bike until they got home.Tinulungan ni Xian si Kim makaupo at kumuha sya agad ng icepack.
"Okay na."sabi ni Kim."No,keep it on for 15 more minutes.Maga oh."sabi ni Xian while pointing at Kim's feet."Sorry ha,pwede ka namang bumalik ulit sa labas eh,you can ride your bike without me."sabi ni Kim."No,it's ok,I'll stay here." "Sige na,sayang yung araw oh,you won't see that in the next couple of days."sabi ni Kim
"No,I'm good,plus it's no fun without you."Xian said."Sana makapasok na tayo bukas,ayaw ko namang magmake up ng days."sabi ni Kim."Ayaw mo yun,mas matagal pa tayong magkakasama."sabi ni Xian."Gusto,pero parang ang boring naman na nasa classroom while the sun is out."sabi ni Kim.
Xian nodded."Magpahinga ka muna,mamaya na lang ulit tayo maglalaro,pwede din tayong maglaro ng video games or you can watch me play football."sabi ni Xian."Pwede rin,tara,tulungan na kitang magset-up"sang-ayon ni Kim.While Xian was playing,Kim was just cheering for him.
"Bored ka na ba?Tignan ko nga yung paa mo,baka pwede na tayong pumunta sa labas."sabi ni Xian ng makitang tahimik si Kim. "Konti,tapos ka na ba?I think okay na nga."sabi ni Kim while holding her foot."Makakalakad ka ba?tanong ni Xian.
Kim got up to try and walk.Xian quickly went to her to assist her."Okay na,kaya ko na,pwede na tayong pumunta sa labas."sabi nya."Are you sure?"tanong ni Xian "Oo,tara na."Inalalayan parin ni Xian si Kim bumaba ng hagdan."Hindi na kailangan,you can let go."sabi ni Kim
"No,remember the last time I let you go?"sabi ni Xian."Sus,OA ka naman,hindi naman ito katulad noon,kaya ko naman sarili ko."sabi niya"Kahit na,I'm just making sure,you almost lost your life because of me." "Bahala ka na nga."sabi ni Kim at bumaba na sya while Xian was still holding her hand.
Ng makababa sila,tingnan lang sila ng mga magulang ni Kim tila nagtataka kung bakit inaalalayan ni Xian si Kim."Namaga po kasi yung paa nya..."Xian explained."Okay ka na ba Kim?"tanong ni Allan."Opo...okay na po ako..lalabas lang po sana kami to get fresh air"sabi ni Kim.They nodded and Kim and Xian went outside.
