              I went over to the sleeping Sidhean. I was about to wake him up when I saw how tired he is. I didn’t even ask him to drive me around but he did. He’s been so considerate about me that he did not notice he’s hurting. Why are they like this? Can’t they just leave me alone so only me can suffer the pain? Because if they kept on coming to me, I will only share my pain with them, even if I didn’t intend to.                 I sighed and shook his arm to wake him up. He opened his eyes and sat straight. He shook his head and rubbed his eyes. He opened the engine and I was worried he might be sleepy still. He maneuvered the tricycle and we went on our way. But I was confused when he stopped on the place full of flowers.                 I looked

              Months passed and everything prettily went back to normal. Or that’s what I assumed to be. Classes started at the beginning of June and I worked hard for bunso’s school needs as well as our daily needs and Ate Kaitlyn’s needs. Ate Kheana would sometimes visit or call us to check up on us.                 The worry I had last time about her abandoning us for her new family went to waste. She still cares for us. And I thank her for that. Bunso on the other hand, had a heart-to-heart talk with me before she enrolled. She admitted that she felt sorry for me because I have to stop schooling for her. I told her it was all good but I also made her promise to do better in school. For her future’s sake. She did promise me that she will do her best to help me by doing great in school, and I took note of that.       &nbs

              “Ate, you’re done na ba?” my sister asked outside my room.                 “Malapit na!” I answered back and went to continue preparing. We are going to Ate Kaitlyn today. We agreed to visit her today and eat lunch with her.                 Matagal na rin kasi noong bumisita kaming lahat doon. Yes, Ate Kheana will be with us. Ang laki na nga ng tiyan niya eh. She’s expected to labor three weeks from now, and I am excited to see my niece. Bunso is excited, too. She even had a schedule na doon na matutulog kila ate para lang makasama ang baby.                 I am happy na umaayos na ang lagay naming lahat. As for Ate Kaitlyn, she’s also recovering well.

              We’ve been sitting opposite from each other in silence. She would look at me and if I caught her, she would look away again. She’s also fidgeting with her fingers, nervous about something I don’t know. She wants to talk to me but she’s not saying anything since we went inside their bakery.                 All I can hear right now are the busy sounds of people working in the kitchen baking all kinds of pastries. I took the glass the cold water in front of me and drank from it. I looked at my wristwatch and it’s getting late. I still have to cook for our dinner.                 I looked back at her and she seemed to not talk anytime soon, so I stood up.             &nb

              I woke up early in the morning feeling excited about this day.  Sa gabi ang hinandang party ni Sid and close friends lang ang invited at mga relatives niya. Bilang pasasalamat na rin niya raw ito dahil malapit na rin siyang grumaduate. Kinaya niya at kakayanin niya.                 Maraming naniniwala sa kanya at isa na ako doon. He’ll be a great brother and a boyfriend.                 Boyfriend. I smiled at the thought. Starting later this evening, wala ka nang kawala Sid.                 Naglinis ako at nagbihis para sa pagkikita namin ni Mav. Sana lang nagpaalam siya ng maayos sa fiancé niya. Ayokong masabunutan mamaya. Kaka-treatment lang nit
