Monday, April 06, 2020 The next day, Maan prepared the week’s orders early. There were only three working days for the week left for the employees like Gil because of the observance of Holy Week. Since it’s Holy Week, fish and vegetables are the main ingredients of the week’s menu. She prepared sweet and sour fish and sautéed bean sprouts that will be Gil’s packed lunch and his co-workers as well. Some of them also requested fried tofu with soy sauce, vinegar and chili as dip.

She was thankful that Gil did not push the issue last night. They finished wrapping the spring rolls quietly last night, cleaned up and took a rest in their respective rooms. While Gil was happy with the thought that he still gets to be with Maan for another month, he still knows that she misses her family. He was afraid that Maan would tell him that she plans to go back to the province with Bryan. Good thing the lockdown was extended. He needs to give her more reasons to stay with him. He might sound selfish but he will find every reason to keep her mind off missing her family and going back to her province. The whole day passed as usual and when evening came, there was nothing left to do because Maan has finished everything during the day. Maan just marinated boneless milkfish fo
