I was busy scanning my music list while on my way to Dapa. Si Nate at Kernel ay susunod daw dahil my inasikaso pa. I did not bother to ask Nate para san because i simply don't want to make conversation with him and if he wants to spend time with his son ay hindi ko pipigilan.

I looked at the window sa sinasakyang kung ferry boat. I admire the ocean and the mountains that we passed and i'm also excited to explore Siargao. It will be a great one because Kernel will be here and I want to make memories with him and also for Nate to bond with his son.

I wanted to call Nate to check on Kernel since mamayang hapon pa sila babyahe to Dapa and it's okay for me since it's only 1hr and 45 mins or more from Surigao port to Dapa port. I'm also planning on buying lots of pan de coco para ipasalubong sa mga colleages ko and i'm sure they will appreciate it.

When the ferry boat stooped, I know that i'm here already so I grabbed my things and went out. I scanned the van that will take me to GI, Nate said it would be great if dun kami mag stay and I did not complain.

"Hello ma'am,  Ikaw si Yndi? Ako kadtong driver nga gi hire ni Sir Nate" a man on his 50's approached me. He was talking on their dialect here and i'm not confuse since I  understand bisaya.

"Opo" tipid kong sagot at sumakay na sa front seat ng van.

I dialled Nate's digit immediately ng magka signal na.

"Nate, anong oras kayo dito pupunta? I'm on my way to GL already. How's Kernel?" I asked.

"We'll be there in the afternoon, I'll call you when we get there" He calmly said.

"Okay, take care of you both" I said.

"Take care too, see you in hours mommy" He playfully said that made me roll my eyes.

I ended the call when the driver said that we are here already. I went to our room and saw two regular bed, a tv and a comfort room. I landed on the soft cushion of the bed and I drift off to sleep.

I woke up and looked at the time 2:38pm. And as if on cue my phone rang.

"Are you in our room already?" Nate asked when I answered the call.

"Oo nandito. Kakagising ko lang, are you here already?" I sleepily asked.

"Yeah, did you take your lunch? I bet you're hungry. Come here at the dining" He politely said.

"Okay, papunta na ako" I lazily stood up and fix my clothes and hair and immediately went to the dining.

"Hi Yndi" he greeted with a very wide smile. I looked behind him and around and so that Kernel is not here.

"Where's my baby?" I asked confusely.

"Mom is taking care of him" He plainly said. Mas kumunot ang noo ko.

"Kelan siya pupunta dito at sino ang maghahatid sa kanya?" I asked.

"He'll be with mom for a week"

"Why? I thought this will be our trip" Kunot noo ko paring tanong.

"Yeah, it is. You and me" He smiled nervously.

"Why did you lie? Ano naman gagawin natin dito? At iniwan mo pa talaga ang anak natin?? I can't believe you, Nate" Inis pero kalamado ko paring sagot.

"I want to spend time with you, alam ko namang hindi ka papayag kapag sinabi ko sayo ang plano ko" He sadly said and that pinches my heart.

"Talagang hindi. Why are you doing this anyway? If you want to have some fun, do it with Jessica. Ayaw ko ng gulo Nate, kapag nalaman 'to ni Jessica panigurado magdudlot na naman 'to ng gulo"

"But I want to do it with you, please Yndi? Spend the week with me and let's just be happy. Is it too much  to ask? He sadly asked.

And my heart ached.
