Maan was not able to sleep well last night thinking of the events yesterday.Did she hurt Gil’s feeling last night? She said she likes him too, didn’t she? She just thinks that she’s not ready for a relationship right now. And liking someone is not enough to be
Wednesday April 01, 202Maan woke up with the alarm ringing at two in the morning. She slowly got up from her bed and went to Gil’s room. She knocked softly three times at his door then slowly opened it. She went inside and found him still sleeping and the tray still has the tablet
Thursday April 02, 2020Together…since she stayed in Manila almost everything that she does Gil was with her and she was happy about it. She only has two weeks left to be with him.

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. Some of their neighbors are also requesting for them to offer snacks. Before noon one of their loyal customers in the neighborhood who is in his early twenties rang the bell. “ Good morning Miss Maan.” He greeted Maan. “Good morning to you too, John. Here are your orders. It seems you have more orders today than before.’” Maan noticed. “ Oh yeah, miss. It’s because some of my neighbors asked me to also include their orders for them. You know it’s very inconvenient to get o
Tuesday, April 07, 2020 Just like any other days, Maan started her day early even if her mind is still filled with a lot of thoughts that she needs to talk with Gil. 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
Wednesday, April 08, 2021 It was the last day of work for the week. In normal situations, this is one of the holidays in the Philippines that Filipinos await because it is one of the longest holidays. This is the time when all terminals everywhere are filled with travellers be it airport, seaport, bus terminals among others. It is a chance for family and friends to have their reunion or for students and employees to relax and unwind, go to the beach to recharge. It is unfortunate that it is not possible at present. Maan cannot help but think of their province. If she is there right now, she is sure that she will be by the beach with her whole family any day this week to bond. She thought of calling her brother later. For now, she busied herself in notifying their customers in GilYan’s Kitchen social media accounts that they can start placing their orders again starting next week. She was busy cleaning the house when she heard her phone r
