Grandma Di Trains Me.

It's five o'clock in the morning and the rosters starts to crow. " Hey grandson wake up, let's cook breakfast now" grandma Di whispers. Mhel was in a bit shock for it's the first time grandma Di woke him up as early as five o'clock in the morning.

" I will boil the coffee bean and you start cooking the rice. When it's ready to measure the water of the rice in the pot, let me know ". "Ok grandma" replies Mhel as he yawns and looks at the wall clock.

"Grandma its time to measure the water in the pot. How to do it?" ask Mhel while still yawning. "The water in the pot is still blurry, wash the rice one more time" tells grandma Di as he look at the pot with a smiling face. "Done grandma Di. Can I go sleep now?" Grandma Di glance at his very young grandson while measuring the water in the pot. "Why?" she ask him with a funny laugh. "Its saturday today and there is no class". Still waiting for his grandma's reply, he then smells the aroma of the barako coffee.

"Well, today is the start of your training. Even if you are a boy you need to learn the household chores. This will be helpful in your adult life. I will not always be here all the time. I am very old now. So please bear with me my grandson". She had already prepared their coffee and handed one cup of coffee to his grandson. As Mhel reach out for the cup of coffee, his tight eyes suddenly open widely and smelled the aroma of the coffee and had a sip. "Thanks grandma Di, I will not hate you for my early traning" he happily answered.
