My Favorite Little Human

May 19, Monday: Let’s Take It Slow Today
While Nanay relaxes in her favorite chair, I’m playing around with the map so I can turn playtime into a secret geography lesson for my kid sister.

And Then Came Tuesday
Earlier, she goes,
“Is Wales a country?”

So I threw it back,
“What do you think?”

She just tossed out a
“Kuya Prince said so.”

My style?
Questions, not shortcuts.

I’m more of a
‘make you think’ kind of person.

Next thing she drops on me goes like this:
“I’m number two in class,” she said with a grin.

I asked, leaning in,
“Who’s first?”

She gave me a non-answer face.
“Don’t know.”

I smiled.
‘Isn’t the fun part in finding out?’

Tuesday, 9 PM.
Welcome to My Brain’s Random Chatter.

Entry One:
Out here walking at night to cool off stress that, as usual, my brain just invented out of thin air. Sometimes I wish I could pause what I feel. Just for a moment. I get overwhelmed. I really do. I don’t always want to talk. I’m not a robot; sometimes, I glitch. But I try to be honest, with myself and with you. So you see, it’s alright to have days like that too.

Entry Two:
We aren’t sisters by blood, but definitely sisters in sarcasm and secret kindness. You’re kind, but not in a spotlight-stealing way. I question my own kindness daily, so no pressure to be perfect.

Entry Three:
Funny how, through it all, you’ve made me want to be the teacher kids actually like. Every time we go over your textbooks, the complaining sessions never stop—hahaha! But you still ace those quizzes. Maybe whining is your hidden superpower. 🤭
