So Near yet So Far

2

It's the month of May, literally means that everybody is in vacation ,hindi naman siguro everybody, maybe only in the Philippines lang siguro lol.

"Babycake hindi nako pwedeng mag flores de mayo kasi big girl na si ate, kung gusto mo ako nalang mag aarrange ng flowers mo na iooffer kay mama mary sige na." Me to my sister na gusto niya kung samahan siyang umattend ng flores de mayo.

(Sa hindi nakakagets yung flores de mayo is the culture we have and hiniheld ito every may. Yung routine is araw araw itong ginaganap from May 1 until the last day of May. So basically kung ibibase ito sa culture namin sa province, every afternoon or 3 o clock, the children in our town are going in the church to offer flowers to mama mary and they we're taught by the catechist (religious elders) how to do the rosary (from the basic steps and all). Magrorosary muna, then mag ooffer ng flowers, magdadance and sing with other children and finally there's this food that was given by sponsors (especially from the rich people in town.)
Too much for the explanation.

"But ate, I want you na samahan moko dun, pag hindi ka sama ayoko mag flores." Babycake with puppy eyes.

"Kung hindi kalng cute talaga. I'll be going with you but i will be just watching you from outside ha. Let's go punta tayo ng school madaming flowers dun wala namang magagalit na teacher, wala namang class. Dun tayo sa elementary daming variations dun nang daisy, rose at orchids. Excited nako magflower arrangements." me being the good ate.

"But ate diba there's a sign there "don't pick flowers diba"?" Babycake

"Gusto mong magflores o ayaw, magbabasa nalang ako ng wattpad dito. Daming sinasabi" me

"No ate we'll go there na"

"Ang ganda no, alam mo pagkinasal ako, ako mag aayos ng sarili kong bouquet. Look, is that pretty?"

"Wow ate i really like it, it's very colorful and looks like the one bought by tatay to nanay during theiranniversary." Babycake

"Ako pa ba, si Heyah Guillermo kaya ito. Tara let's go home so that we can go to the church na"

*********

The school is like, how far the house to the sapa. Mas malayo talaga yung church .So you need to ride a vehicle to go there. Our tatay is not in the house, we don't have a motorcycle to drive us there, he's working in the arena e (You know the cock fighting chuchu) hahaha. He's the one who's counting the money na taya ng mga tao sa mga manok then his responsible in solving the percent (maybe) of the winnings kung nanalo halimbawa yung isang manok. Basta hirap eexplain.

"How can we get there ba? Kainis I'm not going to walk alam mong ang layu layo kung lalakarin natin at baka pagdatjng natin wala na tayong maabutan, siguro nagsasnacks na nang arrozcaldo at juice yung mga fellow children mo." Heya

"But ate I really wanna go there, my classmates are there already you know naman i miss my friends last naming kita nong recognition pa sa school. Oh i have an idea." Babycake biglang tumakbo.

"Hoyy saan ka pupunta. Psst" ang likot talagang bata, pang ilang chapter ko na sana sa
