A life to live

"So you finalized your decision. When will you be back?" I heard her say, I expect it already that she will know it. Though I was still wondering about how it's going to affect my daily activities as a writer but I have to. "I already passed my leave application to our HR and it's been here and approved by you. I know you gonna miss me for a bit....but ...just a bit...you know my intention, it's for my mom's wish" I pause and turned to her I was on my cubicle and fixing my staff I'm gonna miss you for a while I thought thinking about my things. Facing her now " I know you will miss me too, your wonderful writer (I smiled pointing at me) but I promise to make sure that I will bring you the delicacy of what in their,and Back sooner as I can" I smiled and open my arms on her. She's my boss but a friend too and she's so dear to me, I hug her and kiss on her chick. "Yeah, I know..how you love this work, what am I saying is...(she sighed)just don't come back Here without those promises, or just parcel it here..."she just make it a joke "duh...and the truth comes out Reyley..." I rolled my eyes on her "But promise me to get in touch and whatever comes your way their just contact me okey." at that point she became serious. ********** "Andrea darling come here"I see how it's hard for her to say those words and it's aching my heart. Her color was pale, and her beautiful eyes wasn't bright as before and her sweet voice begun to change. "Mom..."I hold her hand and get more closer to hear her. She look on me almost a second and I know how her looks ,she manage to make it unpain as possible as she can but it never change her status for a bit and she sighed. "Mom..."I call her again. She smiled a little "Andrea..."she call me, while still on the smile though it never change the pain that been on her face. Then again she call my name "Andrea,I want ..you to promise me...go to your uncle...and give the letter..." again she sigh on pain."promise me okey,it's important,it's for you and me"she hold my hands and tighten it ********* "Miss...."I open my eye and look around me "Where here, Batangas pier" I nodded my head to the man. I carry my bagpack and hold a handbag, fallowing the women, she was with her baby, a while ago at the terminal I just seat beside here and chat a little, were on the same boat. When I look on my wrist watch it's been 4 :23 in the morning and again where in the bus,my mom words still knock on me,when were at the hospital and how many times does she reminds me are all over in my thoughts. I hold the curtain that cover the window where I seat and put it on the edges to look what was out side and I just hold my breath and blow it slowly using my mouth with a little circle on it is almost a wow The dawn was little by little out off with the sky started to change color from its dark to grey then a violet with orange shade then I just sighed now, the views started to be more awesome, it was a ocean,the sunrise the sky and the green trees,again wonderful. The bus stop. I look around just to see a long way, planted with coconut trees the side of it, as if it is in a raw" beautiful" and my eyes can't even reach the edge of it,again I look around to notice that there's a tricycle that come to my direction I saw the sign "it's same"I thought a minutes later... Again I was standing I a huge gate,I was confuse so i check the address and it totally same "does this must be bigger" I use the doorbell almost three times before someone open the gate, "Good morning!,I'm looking for Lucas Guillermo?"after those words I smiled, it is a middle 40's women a typical one a starting Gray hair and a little wrinkles but in all I think she's a jolly one when she respond on my smile though it's just a slight. "yeah,Who's this young and beautiful woman?"she ask the tone seems a joyful yet in control. "I just want to ,.."I stop, (do I have to tell her ),my thought "Just come in if your not comfortable answering it" she widen the gate and let me in. "oh no it's that.I have something for him"I say and enter, not just huge but truely huge As I walk in to the gate I saw how beautiful was in it.the stravagance garden which have place the widen garage over it was the different kind of giant plants that starting to bloom and there's have a mangga tree that started to bare fruits it's flower make the sorounding smells sweet and enough to bring life to the colour that shades the little plants that have already on its season of bloom. The door open,it's the entrance of the balcony can't be deny, everything was on its own place.The women just left me on a couch with a juice and a cookies on the wooden table that given by other maybe a maid,she ware it, the uniform. I just drink the juice when a man came maybe he is. "So..."the man with at least on his 50's stop on what he was going to say and it's all aver his face the shock. "Good morning"I just smile to make him a little bit of jolt he come to his sense. "Who....who are you?he ask the shock start to gone then become a casual. He pointed out seat and I do I notice that he has a good posture a fair colour though he's age starting to be seen yet a sight of a good built.a wavy hair and the nose ,his lips and the Jew it's seems like familiar. "Ahm..."I clear my throat then again... "I'm Andrea Javier....Andrea Guillermo Javier...the daughter of Luna Guillermo Javier"and I open my hands for a handshake. But as he hold my hand,he pulled me over him and hug me tight.
