Nagtalukbong ako ng kumot nang marinig ko ang alarm. I managed to turn it off kahit pa nakatalukbong ako. Sa ilalim ng kumot ay inayos ko ang mata ko dahil baka may kineme na.
Kahit na nakatalukbong ay kinuha ko ang phone ko at binuksan iyon para tignan ang oras. Alas sais pa nang umaga.
Isasauli ko na sana nang biglang tumunog ang phone ko. Tumatawag si Kuya.
"Hello." I said in a hoarse voice. Halatang galing tulog.
Narinig kong tumawa si Kuya. "Kakagising mo lang ata ah." pang-aasar ni kuya.
"Shut up! Bakit ka napatawag?"
"Wala naman."
"Did you just call just to annoy me?" inis na tanong ko.
"Sort of." natatawang sagot ni kuya.
"Kuya, pag ako nainis—"
"Chill! HAHAHAHA! So ayun na nga, nag-roam around kami kanina sa rooms niyo—"
"Did you just sneak in our rooms?!" sigaw ko.
"No! We just opened your rooms. Nothing more! I know the word 'private' lil' sis." sabi niya.
"No you're not! Remember? You just sneak in my room just to get my archery!"
"Oh, just forget about that. So as what I am saying, I saw a note in your door." napakunot naman ang nuo ko.
"And?"
"There's a note!"
"Kuya naiinis na ako—"
"Just kidding."
"Anong nakasulat?" tanong ko.
"You want me to read it?"
"Yes." deretsahang sabi ko.
"So here it is... 'Take care of yourself kapag nakarating na tayo sa bayan. Magpapakilala pa ako saiyo. Me gustas.' Ikaw ha, hindi mo sinabi na may—"
Bigla akong napabangon nang wala sa oras. "What?! No! It's not what you think—"
"It's okay. That's normal to fall in love."
"What the heck?! Kuya!" inis na sigaw ko. "It's not love and please don't tell mama and papa." pakikiusap ko.
"No, they need to know—"
"I'll bring you waffles when we arrive there."
"No, they don't need to know. Five pieces, thank you." at ibinaba niya ang phone. Napailing nalang ako.
Aksidenteng napatingin ako sa may sofa at bigla akong napamura. "Shit!"
"Oh, sorry. We sneaked in your—"
"No, it's okay. I'm just... nagulat lang ako." sabi ko. "Anong ginagawa niyo rito? At nandito pa talaga kayong pito." kinuha ko ang tubig sa side table saka ininom iyon.
"Itatanong lang sana namin kung may lakad tayo mamaya?" masayang tanong ni Cassian.
"Oo mamaya."
