With Care
The next day, Gio felt more free than before. He woke up early in the morning to do his morning rituals. He went to the gym first and went back home. Wala na naman ang mga magulang niya dahil balik trabaho na ang mga ito.
Nilibang nito ang sarili hanggang magtanghali. Nagbihis siya ng black shirt at pants bago tumahak paalis. Hindi na siya nag-abalang kumain ng tanghalian dahil gusto niyang doon kumain sa karinderya na pinagdalhan sa kaniya ng babae.
He took the table where they last ate. Nakilala siya agad nang may-ari at binati.
"Ikaw pala iyan, hijo.."
"Opo. Gusto ko po sanang tikman 'yung tapsi."
"Naku paborito rin iyan ng nobya mo.." Komento nito kaya napatigil siya.
"H-Hindi ko po siya nobya.." Magalang na pagtanggi niya.
"Ay ganoon ba? Ngayon ko lang kasi nakitang may kasamang ibang lalaki iyon. Kadalasan ay iyong kapatid niya lang.."
"Talaga po?"
"Aba'y oo. Kagandang bata noon ano? Napakabait pa.."
He found himself smiling upon hearing the owner's comment about the girl. He have the chance to ask for her name, but he didn't. He want it to come from that girl's mouth.
"O siya sige, kukunin ko lang ang order mo. Antay ka lang diyan.."
"Sige po, maraming salamat.."
He waited patiently for his order. His mind was wandering around but it has a certain topic: the girl. For a short period of time talking to her, pakiramdam ni Gio ay kilala niya na ito. She's a bubbly and energetic kind of girl with a deep mind and wide understanding.
Hindi niya tuloy maiwasan na mas makuryoso pa sa pagkatao nito. He wants to know her in every way possible. Pakiramdam niya ay mahahawaan siya nito ng kahit kaunting direksyon sa buhay.
