“Edison, anak, tanghali na.

Bumangon ka na diyan.
Ikaw na lang ang tulog dito
sa bahay,” gising ni Aling
Marta sa kanyang bunso.
Ngunit parang walang
narinig lang ang walong
taong gulang na bata sa
panggigising ng ina.

“Gumising ka na anak.
Huwag mo ng paghintayin
ang pagkain sa lamesa.
Hindi ka pa kumakain ng
hapunan kagabi, pati ba
naman almusal ay
palalampasin mo pa,”
malumanay na wika ni
Aling Marta sa anak.

“Opo, babangon na po,”

matamlay at tinatamad na
sagot ni Edison.
Tuwing umaga ganito na
lang ang nangyayari kay
Edison, kailangan pa siyang
gisingin ng ina upang
bumangon.
Sa kanyang pagbangon,
nakarinig siya ng malakas na
tunog ng mga tambol at
tawanan ng mga tao sa labas
ng kanilang bahay.

Sumilip siya sa bintana

ng kanilang bahay upang
tingnan ang nangyayari
sa labas. Nakita niya ang
parada ng iba’t ibang
tribu na kasali sa taunang
Laswahan Festival ng
baryo.
Nagmula ang
pangalan ng festival sa
kanilang lokal na salita na
“laswa” na ang ibig
sabihin ay gulay.

“Hoy, Edison! Baba ka na

dito at sa ilang sandali na
lang ay magsisimula na ang
mga palaro sa plasa. Sasali
ka sa takbuhan, di ba?”
sigaw ng kanyang
kaklaseng si Jonald.
“Tara na,” dagdag pa
ng isa nilang kaklase.

“Sige, magbibihis lang

ako,” sagot ni Edison kay
Jonald. Dali-dali siyang
nagbihis upang
makasama ang mga
kaklase sa plasa.
Habang nagbibihis ,
nakaramdam ng hilo si
Edison. “Hay, masama na
naman ang pakiramdam
ko,” wika niya sa sarili.
Palaging matamlay ang
kanyang katawan dala ng
pagiging payat na bata.

Pagkatapos magbihis
dali-dali siyang bumaba ng
kanyang silid para lumabas
sa kanilang bahay.
“Anak saan ka
pupunta? Di ka pa
kumakain ah. Halika dito at
nagluto ako ng masarap
na pinakbet,” anyaya ng
ina sa bata.

“Pinakbet? Nanay
naman eh, alam mo
naman na ayaw ko ng
gulay,” tugon niya sa ina.
“Mamaya na lang po
ako kakain kapag nakaluto
na kayo ng ibang ulam,”
dagdag ni Edison at sabay
takbo palabas ng bahay.

Gustong-gusto ni Edison na
manalo sa paligsahan sa
pagtakbo dahil malaki ang
papremyo. Sapat ito upang
makabili siya ng bagong
sapatos.
Nasira niya ang kaniyang
sapatos nang naglaro sila ng
balibol ng kaniyang mga
kaibigan noong nakaraang
linggo.

Nagsimula na ang
takbuhan. Mabilis na
tumakbo si Edison.
Talagang nangunguna
na siya nang
maramdaman niyang
unti-unti siyang
nanghihina.
Natapos ang
paligsahan at siya ang
pinakahuli sa mga
lumahok.

Narinig niya ang sagot

ng mga nagwagi habang
sila ay tinatanong kung
bakit sila nanalo.
“Kumakain ako palagi ng
masusustansiyang gulay at
araw-araw akong nag-
eensayo. Iyan ang aking
sikreto,” sabi ng
nangunang bata.
Napaisip nang malalim si
Edison sa narinig.

Pagkatapos ng palaro,
umuwi si Edison ng bahay.
“Nay, may pinakbet pa
po ba? Gustong-gusto ko
pong kumain ng gulay,”
nakangiting wika niya sa
ina.
Abot-tenga ang ngiti ni
Aling Marta. Tumalikod siya
at ipinaghanda ng
makakain ang bunsong
anak.
