Craaasshh!
Napako ako sa kinatatayuan ko dahil sa gulat sa biglaang pagtapon ni dad ng plato na may lamang pagkaing ginawa ko.
"Is this what you called food?" Dalit na sigaw nito. "I have high hopes in you but that..." sabi niya sabay turo sa basag na pinggan at natapong pagkain. "That's junk!"
Gusto ko ng maiyak sa mga salitang binitawan niya. "What's wrong with the food da--chef?"
"You're putting trash on my plate." Malamig nitong sabi.
"I thought you taking over my place was a good idea, but I'm wrong." Pinunasan niya ang tumutulong pawis sa kanyang noo.
I won't give up. I won't allow this to happen. "Please give me another chance. I promise I will prove y--"
Booogggsshh!
Madiin akong napapikit nang malakas na sinuntok ni dad ang lamesa.
"Mikah, if you cannot serve a decent food in one week, I will have no choice but to close down this restaurant in the near future. I have given you too many chances. I hope you won't fail me again..." Tumigil siya at malamig akong tiningnan ng diretso sa mata.
"or else...kakalimutan kong anak kita." Tuluyan na siyang umalis.

Pumunta muna ako sa salas at sinet ang alarm sa cellphone ng eight minutes at nanood muna ng tv.
Craaasshh!
Napatakbo agad ako papuntang kusina nang may marinig akong nabasag at natigilan sa aking nakita.
"Who are you? What are you doing here? How did you get in?" Sunod-sunod kong tanong.
