______ ✎ "Don't eat in another unidentified house!" "Yes, Mom!" "Yes, Auntie!" My cousins and I ran to enjoy the feast here in our province. Very noisy and fun. I can say that it is better than the cities. Those are at home because my peers and just a cellphone or computer. Here in the province, most are outdoors and fun, most people are kind. Fortunately, we were in our family who had to live in the province of relatives on the set day. That was the superstition and saying to my family. I don't even understand why. I really don't know, I can't do our family. "Why can't you eat in another house, Boi?" My cousin Ken asked our cousins Rica and Roy who were here in our province since childhood. "That's not it, T4nga! Haha, it might be a bitter ..." Roy laughed. "We have to obey that, we're here with Auntie especially grandma ..." Ken laughed. "You know good food!" He joked. Rica shook her head and finally spoke. "Really not allowed..." Feeling in the presence that they were serious so I patted Ken and nodded. "Follow ..." "Do you believe, Cinco?" He grinned. I just nodded. "It is important to superstition and say Mom says. It's hard ..." I said seriously. In fact, I didn't know anything about superstitions and sayings but when I was a kid, my mom was telling me about it especially since we were in our family. We need to follow. And again, because of the fear of fear, I keep it in my mind to be safe and respectful of what my mom wants. Nothing will be lost. "The fun! You're here to stay! Let's go for a while!" Rica smiled broadly and hugged me. His brother Roy turned his back. "Yes yes. Our other cousins, next year are here ..." "That's all!" Ken agreed as he traveled with Roy. Suddenly Rica brushed my hair because of her travels so she looked at me again as we walked. "You're really good, Cinco. Oh, your hair is still long and it's so dark ..." Roy laughed. "Watch out, Cin. Here in the province, there are many elements, you might smell charisma ..." Roy laughed so much that Rica's sister hugged her. "What is it, older brother? That's not it!" Rica removed the hair binder that had just been placed in her hand and handed it to me. "Tie your hair first ..." he ordered so I obeyed. I've been here in the province. My mom also told me that we had a lot of superstition so when they said something forbidden, let's just follow. It's hard. This cannot be ignored because it is difficult to fight the lands. "Hey! Rica! Roy!" Someone met us as a young man. It looks like we're just peers. "Who?" He motioned for Ken to us. "Ah, our cousin just came home. Ken and Cinco ..." Roy told us. "Gerard ..." he introduced the man. "Naks! It's really good at the feast! Let's eat! We have a lot ready!" There he is. "Don't worry. That's clean. My troop is Roy e ..." he reminded us. Roy burst into laughter. "Let's go!" It walked with Ken. I suck. It looks like food really. The superstition does not remember ... I turned to Rica and she just nodded. "They know Mom and Grandma, it's clean ..." she assured that I could do nothing but follow her. We entered their house and many people were there. We are ignored because they also have a lot of guests. Gerard just introduced us to his parents for a moment and we were glad to see us, but the story was not long because there were some guests coming in. Story and question only happened as we ate Gerard. I used to have his attention but I let it go because he might be. After we had eaten, we went out to enjoy the feast again. We are with Gerard. It was so dark that we were so much fun outside, so people were so loud and fun. There were games and even throwing money. Gerard also traveled us to the places so our time wasted. It was a bit late when we decided to go home. "The fun!" My smiling comment is wide. "The last day is open. Let's enjoy it! I'll join you again!" Gerard said next to me as we walked. "So much fun here, pre!" Ken's face was also very happy. "18 years of living, this is the happiest event of my life!" She burst into laughter. "That's just forbidden to eat from house to house. There's more to us earlier ..." I sighed. What he said was true, the people were left and right but we rejected superstition. "It's dangerous, pre. It's hard ..." Gerard said. He moved forward when he said that so I noticed behind him. My eyebrows met slightly because of the notice. I shook my head a little and my forehead twitched. There is something wrong. I simply stared behind Ken, Rica, Roy and mine but all right, as I looked behind Gerard, I was surprised. I was still blinking because I might just look back but I still looked. I was silent because I donated and shook my head. I thought maybe it was just so tired that I could see this so I let it go until we got home. We went to Grandma's family house. Rica has their own house here and a few of our relatives, actually, are just neighbors but since we just got home from Manila, everyone is in the family house to
As the game started, the beginning went well. Actually, I'm not a basketball fan but I still know the game somehow. I know what flow is so I understand what's going on.
So, that's it, the beginning is okay. They are both quick to act and to hold the ball well. Great. They already know how to manipulate the ball in their hand. It is also a good idea to defend and know how to respond immediately to allies. As in really good. However, when it was mid -game, the fight began to warp.
The tension is Kulas and Ken. When they meet, it seems like the surroundings are starting to get serious. I noticed that Ken was always serious while Kulas was just chill. In fact, when we were in Manila, I wasn't sure if Ken was a good basketball player because we were away from home and I wasn't with him at school. As in, the connection is few. It was only here that we became superclose in the province. On the other hand, Kulas, I heard that the school player had been a long time so I wouldn't wonder why he looked so good to everyone. He already knew how to squeeze the game into his hand. He seems to know what to do when opponents have hidden acts. He seems to be accustomed to it, knowing that he already knows.
But, even so, I can see how Ken can meet him. My cousin is in keeping and not letting their score fall. They also have a combination of his team so they can quickly understand what stunt they will do next to get and care for the ball.
"Yey! They are just Ken with one points!" Rica shouted as the game stopped. Break first.
Both teams gathered on their side to talk. The first end was Kulas's group so he immediately ran to me. Rica pretended to be beside me with a cellphone.
She knelt down again in front of my seat and smiled. "Good cousin ..." he said. "Reading my moves ..." She laughed softly. He opened the bottled water he was holding and drank it. She was full of sweat on her body but she still looked good.
"You are going to burn ..." I moaned.
He laughed. "I'll take it? You look like you're going to wipe me off ..." she smiled, obviously excited to think.
I went away. "Where's Claire?"
She sucked the side. "Watching that volleball, because it's his friend."
I nodded. "He won't watch you?"
He shrugged. "He said, he'll be back later ..." he changed the conversation immediately. "How's my game?"
I went away. "All right..."
"All right?" She was sucking. "Is that so? Do I think I'm fine?"
I frowned. "Yes. What did I say? That's just one."
He grinned. She looked down at my leg in front of her. He noticed that my shoes were loose so he fixed it. I barely became uncomfortable especially since I heard a lot of murmur and temptation.
"Aww, that's Kulas's girlfriend."
"Yes yes. After all, he was back to the girl ..."
"She's a nice girlfriend."
"True, I didn't hear that. Lowkey maybe they are?"
That's what I hear.
I suck because don. Kulas lifted his gaze to me with a wide smile, as if he had heard the nearby comment of people to us. Her eyes flickered and her presence was obvious to her.
"Come back Ron ..." I said.
She laughed and rubbed my leg while I was in my eyes. "Goodluck me?"

Suminghal ako. "You don't need that anymore because you're good." I said but he just laughed and turned away to obey my command. She returned to her side and happily talked to her kateam.
"Ey, you can think of people, Cinco." Rica laughed. "Now I just noticed, is Kulas really handsome? He just looks creepy before because he's addicted to you ..."
I love him. "Stop right there, Rica."
"Yiie, but are you okay, right?"
I was about to talk to her but I was immediately stopped when she smelled. The Dama de Noche was smiling inside the gym so I got up, alarmed. Rica, on the other hand, held her ear as if she had suddenly whispered to her.
"Simon ..." She smiled and suddenly stood up. He confronted Roy. "Brother, Cinco and I are just going to go, ah?
"Where are you going?" He said.
"Just buy it!" Rica is still lying.
"Ge, I'm buying me too, ah?" He said so we nodded and hurried out of the gym.
Rica and I immediately carried our gaze around but saw nothing. The fragrance of Dama de Noche was so strong that I pulled Rica to where I could smell it even more. We went to the back of the gym where there weren't many people.
There we noticed Erro and Simon. They are at the end where there are some trees. Erro leaned against a tree with every look. Simon, on the other hand, was on the nearby Stone-Bench. That's small. Just right for two people. She immediately thought of Rica so my cousin approached her immediately. I, too, shempre, goes to Erro.
When I got closer, I tasted. It was obvious in his presence that he was not in a good mood. His face was also serious. The blade is more dominant in his eyes now, as if it were forbidden.
"What are you doing here?" I asked as he sat beside her. I also leaned against the tree where he was. The tree is so big that we fit. I didn't even want to stand in front of her because maybe later, someone saw me talking, I was told crazy. It's hard.
"I want to see you." He answered directly. I lost my gaze and sucked.
"Why? Do you have something to say?" I calmly ask.
"Nothing. I just want to see you." He replied. I could feel her stinging at me so I lost my gaze. I was a bit under pressure. I don't like the feeling. What is the problem with this? "I peeked inside where you were, what was there?" He asked questions. He was referring to the inside of the gym.
I immediately turned to him. "Come in?"
"Take a look."
I was a little embarrassed by embarrassment but immediately nodded. "What is that, uh, game. Basketball ..."
"Basketball?"
"Yes. Do you know that?" He didn't answer and he just kept looking at me. It became even more cold and dangerous. "Well, basketball is a game. One ball then you need to, put it in the ring so you can score. Raise a score, that's it." I explained a brief explanation. I also don't know how to explain to her properly and clearly.
"Don't people just look ridiculous? What's so good about that game? When I peeked, they stopped each other and scrambled for a small and round thing." He was calm and serious.
I laughed a little because he was describing. "They are defending because they are preventing the enemy. The small circle is the ball. That's what they need to put in the ring ..." I sighed. "Well, that's right. You can't understand that ..."
