Through The Eyes (English)

10. Sunday

The next day, Sunday, Dream and Jao agreed to go to church together. The girl took her cousin who is six years old.

"He's Angelo, my cousin. I took him with me because no one can accompany him at home," - Dream

"Hello, Kuya," Angelo smiled at Jao.

"Hello cute boy," Jao said as he caressed the boy's hair.

***********

"Is it your first time to go to a market?" Dream asked Jao. They are currently entering the market entrance. Angelo is between them. Jao is holding the kid's right hand while Dream is holding on the left. 

 "What about you?" 

"Here, it's my first time. But before then, sometimes, I went with my mom to shop." 

"Just before? Why not now?" - Jao 

"Eh, I'm here so I can't be with my mom anymore. I'm running away and you don't have to ask why,"- Dream 

 "Really? Aljean doesn't mention anything about that." 

 "Because they don't know. I haven't told them yet. We have just met and you are with me often," - Dream 

 "Where do you live now?"

"At my aunt's house. My dad's sister. She's an old maiden. With her we now live with Gelo. Gelo's dad is Aunt's and Papa's brother. Auntie Rolyn has taken care of Gelo since he was three years old, after his parents separated. Uncle Jerson, Gelo's father, is in Taiwan taking care of business. Auntie Wennilyn, Gelo's mother, is in New York living," Dream said while shopping for vegetables. "Well, after we go shopping, tell me where the elementary school is because I'm going to send and fetch Gelo from school starting tomorrow. Auntie Rolyn went to our house to see my father. They will discuss some important matters. She will be two weeks away. "

"It's close to the municipality and the plaza. Let's go there tomorrow. I'll accompany you to Gelo's school," -Jao

"Okay. Let's go home. Let's cook for those we bought."
