"princess what are you doing?" Someone asked from behind, "youve been locking here all morning, so I guess your busy with something," she said. I got out of my closet just to surprise her,

"Who are you?" She asked "mom, stop with the OA what do you need?" I asked boringly,

"Sino ka, anong ginawa mo sa prinsesa ko?" Aishh, tinagalog nya lang eii,.

Anyway,  its been three days since Luke and I went shopping at ngayon ko lang naisipang isaayos lahat ng pinamili namin, actually kagabi ko lang naisip ilabas sa trunk ng sasakyan nya tong mga to,

at kung hinahanap nyo sya, well, he went to hangout with his friends, nagpaalam sya so pinayagan ko, wala naman kaming plano ngayon so he better go out with them,

But hell,! Parang oras oras natawag sya para mangumusta or magtanong kung uuwi or papauwiin ko na daw ba sya,.😒

"Mom its me, please if its not really important just leave me for a while, Im doing something," I said calmly,

"MOM,! WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING?!" sigaw ko, pano ba naman, mga sampung minuto nya nakong tinititigan mula ulo hanggang paa,

haisst, umaatake nanaman pagiging weird nya, palibhasa ngayon lang nya ako nakitang naka shorts,
Yes, suot ko ngayon yung isang binili namin ni Luke na maikling short at hanging shirt, naiirita nga ako kasi bawat daan ko sa salamin nakikita kong labas pusod ko-_-

"Hehehehe okay okay,!" Then nagpeace sign sya sakin,  "just wondering what have you done to yourself," then hinagod nyako ng tingin,
"And what are you doing with your closet?" Then sumilip sya,

"Ohh, what a mess! Tsk tsk tsk,!" Pailing iling nya pa, "now that youve seen it, can you just leave me alone? Im trying to fix this 'mess'." I emphasize the term mess, natawa naman sya,

"ano ba kasing gaagwin mo? Ill help you," then she smile, "really? Youll help me?" I asked then smiled widely, "ofcourse, I will." She said while tying her hair into a bun, "ano bang gagawin mo?" She asked,

"uhm, we-ell, Ill change those," then tinuro ko yung laman ng closet ko, "to these", then tinuro ko yung mga pinamili namin ni Luke na nasa sofa set,

"You shopped?" Gulat nya, "well yeah, I just thought that my clothes are all used up  so why not go shopping? But dont worry, I used my pink card with theodore's consent so no probs," I explained,

"Hahahahah! Silly, I have no problem that you shopped, Im just wondering why?"
"Le'me guess, its Chesters fault isnt it?" She asked giggling, "well, yeah. The reason why he leaves his car everymorning was because its our deal,"

"And its your idea?" She said surely, "well, he suggested it so why not?" I answered,

"Ma! Mamaya na tayo magchikahan, sabi mo tutulungan moko?!" Sabi ko, natawa naman sya, " aiish, oo na nga! Napaka impatient mo talaga," then nag pout sya, tss! Such a childish!,

"ano bang uunahin natin dito?" Sabi nyang nilalabas yung mga lumang damit, "well, Im planning to  sweep away these old clothes," I explained,
"And youll put these instead?" Nakasmile nyang sabi, "yeah, so shall we start?" Nahihiyang sabi ko, "yeah, sure,!" Reply nya,

*********

"Ymhhm"
*munch, munch*
"Nakakapagod palang maglinis," banggit ko, "yeah, thats why Im calling aling Tess whenever its messy here," sagot nya habang nanguya,

well, its past 3pm and ngayon lang kami natapos maglinis, nagpadeliver nalang tuloy si mama ng pizza and pasta,

"Anyway princess, whats with the deal?" Haist naalala nya pa,
" well, at first it was just Luke's dare, he told me to wear a freakin dress, and guess its color," tumingin ako sa kanya, "uh pink?" Tanong nya, "hell yeah mom, color baby pink! Gosh! I never imagined my self using such color and dress?!you know its not my style,!" Histerikal na sabi ko, "hahahahaha silly! Then why are like that now?" She asked then glance at my clothes, "well, thats the catch, Im gonna wear that freakin dress on a condition that well use my ducatti every morning,"
"untill when?"
"Well, It was supposed to be only a month but he insisted that I should change wardrobe so its gonna be a year😂" natatawang explain ko,.

"You were that smart huh?" Then natawa kami parehas,
"Princess?" She called,
"Hmm?" Napatingin ako, seryoso sya.,
"You really love him?"
"Whats with the seriousness?, and ofcourse I love him, Mom! Hndi ko naman sya sasagutin kung hindi ko sya mahal noh,!" Sagot ko,
"Well.." binitawan nya yung kinakain nya,  "to be honest,at first I really thought that hes just one toy for you, coz you know, I dont see you as someone who'll be serious in a relationship," sabi nya,

"Then seeing you growing and changing better because of him, I just realized that its true love,"
"How can you say so?" I asked,
"Because you change, you grew up," sabi nya, "I changed?"
"Yeah.  look, kung hindi mo sya mahal, mapapag suot ka ba nya ng ganyang damit?" Then hinagod nyako ng tingin, "talking about deal, pero kilala kita, Im your mom. Alam ko kung totoo ba yung pinapakita mo o hindi, at first I really did suspect that youre both just playing around,"
Mom," tumulo yung luha ko, I actually didnt expect that were gonna talk like this again, simula kasi nung naging kami ni Luke, halos palagi akong wala sa bahay, minsan na nga lng kami magkasabay kumain eii,. Pano ba naman, pag kagaling sa school lagi kaming nagdedate, *blush*

"Hey, such a cry baby," then pinunasan nya luha ko, "haist, lumalaki na ang baby ko,." Then hinug nyako, "natatakot na tuloy ako," sabi nya na kinakunot ng noo ko, "natatakot san?"

"Natatakot nakong mas tatanda ka na, natatakot nakong mas mag gogrow ka na, kasi natatakot akong dumating na din sa point na hindi mo nako kaylanganin sa buhay mo, or sa point na wala na tayong part sa buhay ng isat isa," naluluha nyang sabi, napayakap ako sa kanya, "mom! Dont say that, you dont have to be afraid, coz no matter how old I became, how successful I will be, how happy I will be, youll always be a big part of it," sabi ko then I kissed her temple,

"Thankyou princess," she said then hugged me tighter,

"No mom, thanks to you, for everything," I smiled then kissed her cheek,

"Love yah,"
"Love you more."
