“Matthew! What’s wrong with you?!” I immediately exclaimed as I rushed to Madrid and hugged him. “What are you doing to your nephew? Why are you acting like that?” I snapped at my brother.

“Madrid needs to know the truth about his father. If we don’t tell him now, he’ll keep pestering us every single day,” my brother answered.

“He'll soon know about that but not like this. He’s a child, Matthew. He’s my son. I’ll be the one to tell him, so don’t go ahead of me,” I replied in a raised voice.

“M-Mama, please don’t fight,” my child said in the middle of his crying.

“When are you even planning to tell him? You can’t even say it yourself,” Matthew shot back.

“That’s my problem. Stay out of it. You don’t need to make decisions for me, especially when it comes to my child,” I answered firmly.

“Goodness! What is going on here, Mathia! Matthew! What is wrong with both of you? Why are you fighting?” Mom asked as she came home from work. “Why is my grandchild crying? What’s wrong with you two?”

    Madrid and I went downstairs after talking things through between the two of us. We found Mom sitting in the living room.“Where’s Matthew, Mom?” I asked.“He’s in his room. I left him there for a while,” she answered before letting out a deep breath. “I was right, your brother really has a problem,” she added.“Why? What happened?” I asked curiously as I sat beside her.“Your brother got rejected by the woman he’s courting at work. Apparently, he’s been courting her for almost three months already, but nothing came out of it. I advised him. I told him that not everything can be handled with anger. That’s why Madrid got dragged into it,” Mom explained. “Come here, grandson. How are you? Please forgive your Uncle Matthew, okay?” she said to my child.“I’m not mad at him, grandma. I just cried because I miss Papa whenever he’s mentioned. Mama already explained everything to me,” my child replied. Mom even looked at me to make sure, so I smiled and nodded in response.“I know you’re a sm

    I am currently taking the order of a couple. I think they are already in their forty's. They look sweet together because the man constantly considers his wife in everything she wants to order.“That’s all,” he said to me after they finished stating their orders. I wrote everything down on the small note I was carrying.“Okay, ma’am and sir. Please be patient, it will be served after fifteen minutes. Thank you,” I said to them before leaving. I brought the list of their orders to the kitchen so the staff in the kitchen area could start preparing them.I took a bowl of hot soup for the appetizer and two glasses of moderately cold water to serve to the couple.Actually, I’m still nervous. It’s only my second day, so I guess that’s valid? But I didn’t let that feeling take over because I might lose my focus during the training.I noticed Aileen and Von as well, doing their best to perform their tasks properly. It makes me happy because, at least, I’ve gained new acquaintances. I suddenly

    The three of us trainees were currently on our lunch break. We went to a nearby eatery and had our meal there. I wasn’t able to bring packed food because I prioritized taking care of my child.“It’s a good thing that the customers earlier were okay. You know, the only thing that really makes me nervous is when a customer suddenly causes a scene. Not all customers are the same, after all,” the female trainee explained.“That’s true,” the man added. “By the way, we haven’t introduced ourselves yet. I’m Von. Von Casejo. How about you?” he said as he introduced himself.“Aileen Minarez,” the woman introduced herself.“Mathia Tierro,” I introduced myself as well.“You know, I feel like we’ll last here. We can handle this,” Von said to us.“Ma’am Carreon is okay. But didn’t they say Ma’am Sofia, the general manage, is strict? What if she ends up failing us?” Aileen replied.“That won’t happen. Tss! You know, everything will be hard for us if we keep thinking negatively. We should stay posit

    A mix of excitement and nervousness filled me as I walked toward the restaurant where I would be working. I was wearing a white polo, black slacks, and black closed shoes.Today was the start of my training. I was on my way to Ravish Restaurant. I rode a jeepney and walked the rest of the way. The distance wasn’t that far, so I decided to walk. It helped me save money instead of taking a pedicab.“Good morning, ma’am. You look ready today,” the male guard greeted me.“Yes. I’m very prepared today,” I replied with a smile.“You may go in now, ma’am. Our timekeeper is inside so you can clock in,” he added.“Alright. Thank you,” I said before entering. The cold air from the air conditioner immediately brushed against my skin. I walked down the hallway, which was about the length of three classrooms, and soon saw a female guard stationed at her post.“Are you new?” the guard asked.“Yes,” I answered.“Please write your name here and indicate ‘trainee’ as your position,” she said, handing

    I was extremely excited to tell my entire family that I finally had a job. I was restless inside the house the whole day. Out of pure happiness, I even started cleaning at the most random time. I didn’t even feel tired at all.Because of my excitement, I decided to prepare for a small celebration. I ended up making Leche Flan and grilling some Liempo. I truly went all out. I just couldn’t hold back my joy.While I was busy cooking, I also played music on the speaker. I found myself dancing and singing along. I didn’t notice the time passing until I saw my mother arrive.“It looks like there’s a party here, huh? Wait, did you grill Liempo? What’s this? Leche Flan? You even made Leche Flan?” Mom asked one question after another as she approached me in the kitchen.“Yes, Mom. Just a small celebration because I got accepted at work,” I told her. Mother’s mouth fell open and her eyes widened with happiness.“Really, Mathia? Congratulations! I knew you could do it!” Mom said proudly.“Anywa
