August already, huh?
I thought that today would be a difficult day at work. I swear that bus driver always stops at KFC and I don't know why. Last Friday he did as well, and I think it's the same driver. Today, he stopped by at KFC while I was rushing to be on time at 4pm in the office. I thought I was going to get late on my last shift before my vacation, but I just kept the faith. I always pray before leaving for work. Perhaps God wanted me to do some cardio. So I ran for it after I got off on my stop and I made it in time with 3 minutes to spare. The first four hours was straightforward enough, but the last three hours were a bit different. I also thought I would be going home early, but I left after 10:30pm.
I called my dad to check if he could pick me up. To my surprise, he said that he needed to pick up mom and my little sister. I didn't know that everybody was working today! I looked at the clock and it was about 10:40pm. I told him that I'd call back to see if I could run for the late bus. I put my backpack on quick and rushed out of the building. Then I saw the bus just driving by from the distance as I ran through the parking lot as the shortcut. If I haven't talked to my dad for a minute, I would've caught it! I was catching my breath when I called dad back and said that I didn't make it. I told him I would just walk through the street to meet up with him.
It was already 10:50pm and we were on our way to pick up mom. Both my sister and my mom leaves work at 11pm. And I just shook my head when dad said that ate C was at home with her girl and she can't leave her girl for work. I was thinking we're going to wing it. We picked up mom past 11pm and we had to drive on the other side of downtown all the way to Henderson to pick my sister. I recall that ate C goes to work around 11:15pm and again she can't just leave her little one in our house. My sister was supposed to look after her, but now that she's working part-time too, I guess there will be more changes to discuss. I called my sister on her cellphone to make ready so that we could just zoom home and let ate C go to work. It felt like an amazing race on wheels. There was this feeling that since we made it all in one piece, we wanted to go home and let ate C go to work without any problem. Bring home the bacon!
We arrived home at 11:25pm and ate C said that there wasn't any problem at all. Again, if I didn't call my dad at all, and remembered that there is still that bus towards home after 10:40pm, I could've gone home already. But enough about that, it's vacation time and I'm just going to laze for a while. *puts feet up and drinks a cold Pepsi*
