Sorry, I'm not her.

Chapter 8
I promise, promise

We're now both eating our breakfast. I cheated this morning. I didn't eat what they gave. Nakakasuka kaya.

"Yummy?" Kelly is eating his burger. We're just hiding here in the car. He's sitting on the driver's seat and as usual, I'm on the passenger's.

"Super! It feels heaven to eat this thing again!" my mouth is full and I can barely talk.

"Cute," he smiled and drank his softdrink. Well, I don't want to cheat that much and ruin my mission, I chose to go with just a water. "This is so good." his mouth is also full and seems like enjoying the vibe.

"What do you mean, good?" hindi ko alam kung naintindihan niya ako, "The coke?" turo ko sa softdrink na ininom niya. Nai-inggit ako!

"Not the coke,"

"Hmm? What?"

"It feels so good being here with you," parang wala man sa kaniya ang sinabi niya at patuloy lang siya sa pagkain.

Parang may kung anong init ang umakyat papunta sa mukha ko. Shems, sana hindi ako halatang nagb-blush!

"Silly!" sinipa ko ang paa niya. We're both laughing and enjoying. Mukhang hindi naman ako gaanong nag-blush dahil wala naman siyang sinabi.

It's been a week since I started training and all I can say is, amazing! I'm enjoying everything. I'm also learning new things, though I can't eat food I like.

All they give is some veggies and some diet I don't want to taste again, but I fu--in have no choice! But that's okay, the red planet is waiting for me.

I walked out from the car and sprayed breath mist before totally entering the building. "You seem to enjo-o-oy my presence, Kelly," I optimistically said and grinned.

"Absolutely! How did you know?" he put his arm on my shoulder while we're walking.

"Hey! Your arm is heavy!" reklamo ko pero hindi pa rin niya inaalis sa pagkakapatong, nakakainis pero okay, hayaan ko na lang, "Okay, whatever, Kel." I rolled my eyes and he just answered with a laugh.

This time, I didn't follow Ms. Daisy around, I went to our training room by myself. It's not the simple training room we used to go to, it's a facility where there are a mock-ups of spaceship and they will surely train me how to move in space.

"Using these mock-ups spaceship, you will learn how to move and how it feels to move in space, alright? You get it?" Ms. Daisy instructed me.

As usual, I'm wearing a spacesuit.

Pinapasok na ako sa loob ng isang mock-up. This is so beautiful. Akala ko sa movie lang ako makakakita ng ganito.

There are cameras outside this vehicle I'm in and I'm very excited to watch them later.

I feel no weight in me, there's no heaviness. Ang bagal pa ng takbo at parang lumulutang lang ako. I move around. I practiced myself.

"Is it really fast?" pinapanuod namin ang video na nasa labas ng vehicle at
makikita na ang bilis nang takbo ng spaceship. "But it felt nothing when I was there," mahina kong sabi.

Hindi ko napansin na ganoon pala kabilis ang takbo ng isang spaceship at habang nasa loob ay pakiramdam na lumulutang lang.

However, it didn't feel like this last time where I was in a mock-up where it was supposed to feel like I'm in a space rocket and it must be igniting. That felt terrifying. I was all alone in that vehicle. Ang bilis ng takbo ng spaceship na 'yon na para bang totoong pinalipad na ako gamit ang pag-ignite sa dulo ng spaceship.
