One thing I love about being a grown up is that I am in full control of my time. I no longer have to hear my father say, "Anong oras na? Pawnga na nang TV/computer. Alas 9 na o. Tulog na. Klase pa bukas." Right now, he doesn't say that anymore even if he catches me still watching TV, laptopping, or fiddling with my phone past midnight already. He just walks across the living room, looks at his wristwatch, then at the clock posted on the wall, and back at his wristwatch, creasing his eyebrows while shooting a glance at me through the corner of his eyes. 😂
