SUNDAY MORNING

This tale begins on a Saturday where Frank wakes up to an empty house. He walks out of his room and looks around and asks “Where is everyone?” He realizes that the long weekend has begun and that his mom and sister are in Laguna; his brother is in Batangas.

“I’m home alone.” He muses but his spirits aren’t dampened. “I’ll just invite people over.” So he texts his friends and plays with his Dreamcast while he waits for replies. Unfortunately the answers he gets are all non-committal. “Oh well, I’ll just tidy my room up.”

Hours pass and boredom sets in. The sun has gone down and in his orange room Frank contemplates on what to do next. He texts his friend Debbie and asks what she’s up to. She replies that she and Cris will be heading to Capone’s later that night and asks if he would like to join them. Frank at first is hesitant since he’s without a car that night and would have to commute.

Debbie on the other hand is excited to go out. She hasn’t been out in a while because she’s been down with a fever. She texts Frank that she’s even picked her outfit out already. As she describes her outfit, Frank is convinced to go.

Frank dresses up and takes a cab to Capone’s. As he gets there he notices nothing happening. He orders a beer and chats the staff up. He then remembers that Debbie and Cris are just walking to Capone’s. Although they’re coming from the pad of Cris which is just five minutes away, he doesn’t feel right that they walk alone. So he texts Debbie and asks if he can walk them over. Instead he’s asked to come up and meet them at the pad.

He’s excited. Frank has never seen Cris’ pad. As he gets up, Cris opens the door for him. He loves the place. Although the common area is still empty, you can see its potential. Her bedroom is a nice cozy place. Cris’ has always had a nice room. Frank has been to her old room and also found it as cozy. The two girls were getting ready so Frank relaxed a while.

The trio now starts moving and walks over to Capone’s. In no time they’re there. They pick out a table that has a good view of the stage, and order drinks. Frank is now just thinking to himself “This afternoon I was bored. Now I’m with two gorgeous ladies.”

Cris asks “Where’s Norby?”

“He’s at home thinking if he’ll come over or not.” Replies Frank. At that moment Cris texts him to come over.

“He’ll get ready.” Says Cris.

That night they were joined by Norby and a few other friends like Margie.

Frank got to play drums too. He was called on stage several times by the band playing. Norby played also. And as was normal for Capone’s, all the festivities ended on Sunday morning with the sun already up.

“I’m hungry!” claims Norby. So Cris, Debbie, Frank and Norby head to the car and head to Rufo’s. They eat breakfast while talking about friends and other thoughts. As they finished the two guys bring the two girls back to Cris’ place.

On the way home, Frank was thinking to himself while smiling “And all this started with me being home alone.”
