Pagkalapag ng eroplano, agad din naman kaming bumaba.

We immediately went to the baggage claiming area.

Kasabay kong naglalakad si Chrome, while the other boys, including Chris, are at our back.

"Uy may chix!" I heard Anton said. His voice was naturally deep, so I could really recognize it.

"Saan?!" I heard Brownie asked. I could also recognize his voice because it is kind of pitchy.

Napailing na lang ako dahil sa usapan nila.

Boys and their girls.

After getting our luggage, I saw Alex approach me so I tried to smile at him.

"How was the trip? Okay ka lang ba? Are you tired or something?" he asked.

Umiling lang ako. I don't even know how to answer all his questions at once.

He seemed nice, but he's also silent. Not that I mind though. I like silent people. Just minding their own business and doesn't paying attention to me.

Naglakad na kami palabas ng airport. I can hear Brownie's complains about something.

Hindi ko na lang finocus ang isip ko roon at tinignan na lang ang labas.

"Tito will be here in a minute..." Sulpot ni Chris sa tabi ko.

I looked at him and nodded.

How would we know if it's Tito? He's Dad's brother, I think? I really don't know.

I think he's Daddy's half brother and they live here in Davao.

How nice though.

I really don't know my cousins because they're still young. Bata pa kasi si Tito.

I think he's 7 years younger than Daddy.

Nagising ako sa katotohanan ng may van na pumara sa harap namin habang malakas na bumubusina.

The window opened and there, I saw Tito waving at us with this silly smile on his face.

"Chris! Chrome! Court!" he yelled as he motioned for us to come near the vehicle.

Kunot noo akong lumapit sa van at binuksan ang pinto sa harap.

Tumalikod ako kay Chrome dahil alam kong nakasunod siya sa akin at inilahad sa kanya ang maleta ko.

He looked at me with a hint of confusion.

"Palagay na lang sa likod. Thank you Kuya!" I tried to sound cheerful but I failed.

Agad na akong umakyat at sinara ang pinto.

I looked at Tito who is now grinning at me.

Nagmano lang ako sa kanya at sinuot na ang belt.

"Dami mong boys a, daming body guard," Tito spoke.

I see he's trying to make a conversation with me. Kahit na gusto kong makausap siya, hindi ko naman alam kung anong sasabihin ko e.

"They're Daddy's new project," I said and as soon as I realized what I said, I regretted it.

Parang pinapahiwatig ko na hindi sila tao, kung hindi ay bagay na ginagamit o kaya ay ginagawa.

I really don't know.

"Na kwento niya nga." He looked at the back and smiled. "Welcome to Davao! Sana ay mag-enjoy kayo rito! Upo lang at mahaba-haba pa ang byahe," he cheerfully said before looking back at me.
