Today's the second game ng finals. Malalaman ngayon if sila kuya na ba ang mananalo dahil best of 3 lang ang games. If kuya's team win today, sila na agad ang champion pero kung makahabol ang team namin, magkakaroon pa ng game 3.
Nasa bahay pa kami ni kuya, having our breakfast. Kumpleto kaming kumakain ngayon sa dining area. I was sipping my hot chocolate drink when mommy asked me about school.
"Tamara, are you okay with your school? Are there problems or anything?"
"No, mommy. I'm good, why?"
"Wala naman, I'm just worried. In three months lang, ga-graduate na ang kuya mo. Will you be okay alone?" she worriedly asked. I smiled at her.
"Mom, you don't have to worry. I'm with Kitsch po, diba?" I reminded her. She nodded back.
"Oo nga pala. How's she doing naman?"
"She's fine rin po, I guess. She hasn't told me anything negative pa naman po about school." I answered. Mom nodded.
"Basta, Tamara. Tell us if ever magkaroon ka ng problema sa school so that we can transfer you, okay? Hindi ka na mababantayan ng kuya mo next school year." si daddy.
"Yes, dad. I'll tell you po agad. Thanks for asking."
"Anything for you, sweetheart." sagot ni daddy at tinapik ako sa balikat. I continued eating my pancakes. When I finished, umalis na agad kami ni kuya. Hindi na kami nagpapahatid sa driver namin dahil kuya already knows how to drive and he has his own car already.
Kuya opened the window for me. He placed our bags at the backseat bago siya umikot papunta sa driver's seat. I fastened my seatbelt, he did as well. He started the engine and waited a few minutes before he started driving.
As usual, nakakabit uli ang phone ko sa bluetooth ng sasakyan ni kuya. I am always the one in-charge of the music kapag kami ang magkasama kaya walang kawala si kuya kahit ano pa ang patugtugin ko. Excluded ang explicit songs, of course. Baka pababain na lang ako bigla ni kuya kahit at the middle of the road kung magpatugtog ako no'n.
"Are you nervous?" tanong ko. He shook his head. "No, why would I be?"
"Wala lang, just wondering. Oh, I heard na nangunguna booth niyo, ah? Baka kayo pa manalo niyan." sabi ko.
"Cindy's good at management. May Japanese restaurant din kasi sila kaya siya na nag-ayos nung mga kailangan namin doon. Kapag umaalis siya sa booth, it's either she's getting materials for it or nag-iinventory." sagot ni kuya. I slowly nodded. Kaya naman pala she looks busy noon. Tama nga ang naisip ko sa kanya about becoming a businesswoman. Napaisip tuloy ako.
"Will she be taking a business-related course after high school?"
