As much as my father wanted to drive me to Makati, he had to report to work early. And I could not use my car [POOTCHI] since it's a "Oh-No-It's-A-Tuesday-Coding-For-Her". So I had no choice but to commute. But when I woke up early this morning, my mother told me she would accompany me. I was really touched. (that's why I am sharing you the story)... Obviously I know how to go to Makati. I studied there from elem to high school and I worked and lived there also. I believed she was just a little worried that I might faint (because I am anemic) especially in crowded places... I told her to just stay at home and I could manage going there by myself, but she insisted. You know, I could not help but smile. I felt really blessed for having a mother like her. I believe it's my mom's way of making me feel how much she loves me and how much she wants to protect me... I may be a little pampered here in the Philippines, but I am also used to an independent life. I've worked and lived in four countries already (excluding Ph). But nothing beats the joy of being taken care of your mother.
While we were at the bus, my mom fell asleep and as I was looking at her face, I thought how beautiful she was (her father has Spanish blood, that's why)... That moment was priceless..I realized my mother has always been there for me. She has always been my "lucky charm". And for that I am very grateful.
Leaving home is not easy... Just the thought of it... Ooooh... And even if my mom was against the idea of working abroad
So, I just have few weeks to teach her how to use the internet. She was too lazy to learn it before, but she was not happy with her phone bill...
On our way home.. I told my mom how reckless the bus driver was, and she told me...
"Pa'no natin irereport, tingnan mo yung number..."
Nyay...Oo nga naman...:)
