"Anak, ano nga ulit 'yong sasabihin mo?" Kanina pa ako palakad-lakad sa sala dahil hindi ako mapakali. Hindi ako pinatulog ni Caleb dahil sa sinabi niya kahapon. Is he not afraid of my mother? I'm sure she wouldn't let him court me if this is the case. I wish he just asked me straightforwardly. Hindi pa ako handa. No, I mean I'm ready to be courted, but not in this way where we would surely face my cruel mother. However, seeing his face yesterday while saying those words, he seemed determined to ask permission from my parents. Ewan, hindi ko na alam. Wala siyang sinabing oras kaya hindi ko alam kung mag-aayos na ba ako ngayon o ano. Kinakabahan din ako dahil baka kung kakatok na siya, si mama ang makabubukas. My mother is still sleeping. Alas singko y media ako nagising para magsaing
