Home Alone
By Ma. Melanie L. Padohinog

She was enjoying watching TV when she heard a knock at the door.
She hurriedly went to open the door and see who was in there when she
remembered her parents’ reminder, “Never open the door when someone
knocks or you will be in trouble”. She was feeling uneasy so, she
immediately called her parents over the phone and told them that
someone was at the door.
“Just calm down. I’ll call your Uncle Rey to peek out of his window
and see who is knocking at our door,” her Dad said. Uncle Rey is her
Dad’s brother who lives just beside their house.
“Thank you, Dad,” Melisa said calmly.
“Melisa! Melisa! It’s Uncle Rey. Will you please open the door?”
Melisa heard her Uncle Rey calling for her.
When Melisa opened the door, Uncle Rey was standing there
together with a man the same age as her Dad.
“Come in, Uncle. Come in, Sir. Good evening,” Melisa said politely.
“Good evening, Melisa, and thank you. Melisa, I want you to meet
your Uncle Anthony, our cousin from Manila. He came directly from the
airport. He does not know anyone nor other relatives to spend the night
with other than us. That is why he is here at this hour,” Uncle Rey said.
“I’m sorry, Melisa, for scaring you. You are a smart child and I
admire you for acting responsibly to situations like this. I know that
your parents taught you well,” said Uncle Anthony.
“I’m sorry, too, Uncle, for not opening our door to you and thank
you for understanding,” Melisa said shyly.
“Come, Uncle Rey and Uncle Anthony. Have a seat first. I’ll just get
something for you to eat. I’m sure Dad will be very happy to see you,”
Melisa added.
Uncle Rey and Uncle Anthony chatted while waiting for Melisa’s
parents to come home.

Dad, we know that you also want to spend a longer time with us,
