“Congratulation Ms. Montero you passed the acceleration exam”

“Please attend your class Next Monday, Class Scheduled will be sent again tomorrow and regarding with your uniforms we will just delivered it too tomorrow link below is the computerized scores of yours. Good Night and Welcome to Comprehensive High School.

“KYAAAAAAHHHHHHH, I PASSED, I PASSED!!! OH MY GOD THANK YOU LORD!!!” I happily scream and jump on my bed like an idiot
 
“Sweetie what happen?” nag aalalang tanong ni mommy ng pumasok siya sa kwarto, Nilibot naman ni daddy ang buong kwarto.
 
“Mom, Dad! Look!! I passed!!!” eksaheradang saad ko. Kinuha naman ni mommy ang laptop ko at sumilip narin si daddy.
 
“Oh my God! 559 over 600??!” takip ang bibig na saad ni mommy. Malawak ang ngiti ko namang tumatango sakanila.
 
“Its too high, from what I just expected mom, dad!! I cant believe this!” masayang saad ko.
 
“Congratulation sweetie! You’re such a smart kid” daddy said while brushing my hair, umiwas naman ako at sumimangot.
 
 
“Dad, I am no longer a kid, I’m already 17 dad” I said while pouting, tumawa naman si daddy at niyakap ako.
 
“Yeah right sweetie, your already 17 but yet your still our baby” daddy said, tumatango naman si mommy at nakiyakap narin.

I wake up early, maybe its just 6:30 am when j I get up from my bed and I’m currently at our mini garden inaantay na lumabas si Ralph.
 
“What are you doing here sweetie?” tanong ni mommy ng makita niya ako, magdidilig kasi siya nga mga potted plants niya.
 
“Hehehe, just waiting for Ralph to get out mom, mag go-good morning lang” saad ko naman tsaka tumayo at lumapit sa kabilang side na mas malapit sa mini garden din nina Ralph since this is a village mabababa lang ang mga gates dito, at makikita mo talaga ang kabuoan ng kabilang bahay.
 
Nang lumabas si Ralph ay inagaw kona agad ang pansin nito, “Hi Ralph, Good Morning” I greeted with wide smile and wave. He averted his gaze again at sumakay sa motor niya.
 
“You must be Ralph? Nice meeting you iho” singit ni mommy, napababa naman si Ralph sa motor niya at nag bow kay mommy! Auhh Cold and respectful.
 
“Yes po Ma’am, Ralph Castillo Nice meeting you too po” saad nito, natawa naman si mommy.
 
“Just call me Tita iho, oww nag aaral ka rin sa Comprehensive high?” tanong ni mommy, (obvious naman siguro mom uniform palang na may Comprehensive logo malalaman mo na talaga) syempre sa isip ko lang iyan sinabi.
 
“Yes mom, and we will be schoolmate next week!” masayang saad ko.
“Is that so? Hmm so can I entrust my daughter Avie with you? Bagohan lang siya dito Pilipinas kaya wala talaga siyang alam” saad naman ni mommy napangiti naman ako doon.
 
“hdjeneklalkebdk nhsjsmkwkw lksjsnhdkl” he murmur, unfortunately hindi namin narinig nj mommy.
 
“Pardon?” mommy ask.
 
“Nothing Tita, hmm sure po ako na pong bahala kay Avie sa school” sagot naman nito ng nakangiti, I smiled too thinking with the possible outcome kapag palagi kaming magkasama hehehe!
 
“I have to go tita, I have classes pa po eh” pag papaalam naman nito.
 
“Take care iho” mommy replied, he just nod and took a glance on me first I just smile at him then he ignore me again. Hmp sungit!

Its already 10 am when I received my class schedule from Ms. Pearly, magkaibang magkaiba talaga ang class hours dito sa Pinas at sa New York well, kailangan ko talang mag adjust alangan naman kasing ang skwelahan pa ang mag a-adjust saakin.
 
Time went faster, and its already 6 pm I am currently at the kitchen with mom, doing nothing just observing hehehe!
 
Ding dong.
 
“Pag buksan mo muna anak baka ang daddy mo yan” saad ni mommy, tumango naman ako at naglakad papuntang pinto.
My mouth form into big O when I saw Ralph outside the gate.
 
“Ralph, what brings you here? Miss me?” proud na saad ko sakanya.
 
“Im just here to give this to you” he plainly said and give a paper bag with a Comprehensive logo on it, oww it must be mu uniform.
 
“T-thanks” I said.
 
“Welcome” he shortly said, aalis na sana siya ng biglang dumating si daddy.
 
“Good Evening Sir” bati naman nito kay daddy tsaka nag bow.
 
“Who are you? Nanliligaw ka sa anak ko?” biglang tanong ni daddy na may malalim at buong boses, not his usual voice he only use that kind of voice when he’s in front of the employees and shareholders.
 
“A-auh, No sir, I am just appoint to deliver Ms. Montero’s School Uniform.” He said straighten his back and being attentive. I just chuckle in his sudden reaction. CUTE!!!
 
“So, you must be a student of Comprehensive High am I right?” dad strictly said.
 
“Yes sir” he answered habang naka yuko. Daddy wink at me that make me chuckle again. Nag angat naman ng tingin si Ralph at napatingin saakin asking why in his facial expression, I just shook my head and avert my glances.
 
“May I know your name then?” tanong ni Daddy.
 
“Ralph sir, Ralph Castillo” He answered.
 
“Castillo? Are you in related with Dean Thomas Castillo?” Daddy ask. Oo nga ano? Castillo din ang Apelyido ng Dean sa Comprehensive High napansin ko kasi sa name plate ng Dean when I take the exam.
