Their apartment went silent as a library the moment they got to each of their destinations. It went extremely quiet when the jolly and the sunshine of the family Gayo left for his early class today.
Talin went to change his clothes and returned his uniform. He was off from work. As he walked out of the store, he saw Mang Nonoy and Andero waiting outside. Mang Nonoy gestured. He lifted his left hand and gestured to Talin to join them. Tal joined and sat at the outside chairs of the store with them. Mang Nonoy and Andero's faces were sadder than his.
They reminisce about how they had gotten these hard-working and smart youths and then how much they learned to accept life because of them. Andero remembered that Iko once told how she left her parent's house as an unlucky daughter and was labeled a jinx. She was seen as the bad luck of their family.
