"Gagi?" Tinignan ko si Eliah na ka pa pasok lang ng aking silid at ngayon ay nag mumukhang nasa maze at iniiwasan ang mga damit na naka kalat sa lapag. "Anong trip mo? Ang kalat ng kwarto mo." Dumiretso siya sa sofa at tinignan ako. "Ginagawa mo?" Huminga ako ng malalim at tinignan siya.
"Nag iimpake. Lalayas na ako." Pabiro kong sabe at binatuhan niya ako ng damit.
"Huh? Tara samahan kita." Natawa ako pero siya ay napaka seryoso. "Ano nga?" Tumabi ako sakanya at humiga sa balikat niya. "A-are you tired?" I nod. "Mag pahinga ka muna." Umiling ako.
"Aalis kame sa 20 tapos balik ng 24 ng gabe. Si lola, diba. Isasama sana kita kaso sabi ni mama may lakad din kayo. At magkikita naman sa pasko. 'Wag mo'ko ma miss, ha!" Tumayo na ako pero hinila niya ulit.
"Alam kong pagod ka. Mag pahinga ka muna, dito, saaken."
Eliah Kevin Garcia. My friend since diaper days, my protector, my second kuya, my classmate, my bear, my partner, my pahinga, my everything... My first love.
Mabilis lang ang araw at ngayon ay nasa U.S na kame at nag aayos para sa dinner with the other relatives. 'Di naman stressful dahil naka cater. Ang stressful ay ang tanong ng bawat relatives. I grew up with a whole family. My parents provides me my needs and wants. They don't ask for high grades or to be 'that ideal young lady' They don't but my lola do. I'm her favorite granddaughter, it's nice pero nakaka sakal. Para na akong isang puppet, ang hirap. But i have no choice but to do it. That's why some of my relatives hates me. 'cause my lola compares me and my cousins. Wala nalang akong magawa.

"Grace, anak. Paki kuha na yung bouquet para sa lola mo." Tumango ako at umakyat para kunin 'yon at sakto namang nag ring ang aking phone.
"Hey!" Agad na bungad saaken ni Eliah pagka sagot ko ng FaceTime.
"Hi! Good morning." Parang kagigising lang niya dahil nasa kama pa siya at magulo ang buhok.
"Good evening, dinner niyo na?" Tumango ako at umupo. "I miss you." I laugh at tinignan niya ako ng masama. "Ilang beses ko pinagisipan 'yan tapos tatawanan mo lang?! Bye na nga." Tumawa ulit ako pero natigil nang makita si lola sa pinto. Agad kong binaba ang tawag at tumayo.
"L-lola." She nod at lumapit saaken.
"Is that, hmm, Garcia?" Tumango ako. "Are you two in a relationship?" Kalmadong tanong niya pero nakaka takot.
"N-no po, Eliah and i are good frien-"
"Good. The Garcia are rich but i want you to marry someone who are more richer that can provide you for everything more than what i can give to you. Remember that, Grace." Tumango ako at tinignan si lola na lumabas ng kwarto ko pero nag salita ulit siya. "Tumataba ka, bawasan mo'yan." And i lost it. I looked at the mirror and saw my whole body. Huminga ako ng malalim at nagulat nang nasa call paren si Eliah.
"E-eliah! Bakit nanjan ka pa?" Tahimik lang siya. "I-i need to go-"
"You are enough, Cielo."
