Every Sundaymy sister and I always insinuate that we wanted to eat at yellow cab after going to church.
We would always say something like “Papa gusto naminngdilawna baby bear/lion”
or have a conversation like when my sister is wearing a yellow shirt she will
ask what the color of her shirt is then ask what a baby bear or lion is called
to our dad until he gets our point. Sometimes when he can’t take our pestering
anymore, he will tell us to ask our mom to make us stop, but eventually they
will agree to eat at yellow cab. We would drive to Imus where there is the
nearest Yellow Cab. We would always order a Manhattan Meatlovers Pizza, Charlie
Chan Chicken Pasta, Twice Baked Potato Halves and Hot Wings. After ordering our
parents will go to our table. My Papa would always joke on whom will pay or
whose allowance the bill will be deducted. Then my sister and I would point at
each other. Then our order will come and we will all eat. Sometimes, I and my
sister would scramble at the chicken if there are some left. I was always the
last one to finish. After eating we just sit there for a while, we just talk
about what has happen the past days and other stuff. It’s like our little
family Sunday bonding time. Where we forget about everything else and just
think about each other. That’s why I love to insist that we eat outside after
the mass.
