Isang Lunes ng umaga, hindi mahanap-hanap ang batang si Dadoy. One Monday morning, the boy Dadoy could not be found. Op een maandagochtend kon de jongen Dadoy niet worden gevonden.

Sa halip, may isang batang sumulpot at nagpakilala. Instead, a boy appeared and introduced himself. In plaats daarvan verscheen er een jongen die zichzelf voorstelde.

"Isa po akong madyikero!" "I'm a magician!" "Ik ben een goochelaar!"

Sa isip-isip ng mama ni Dadoy na si Aling Amanda: In the thoughts of Dadoy's mother, Aling Amanda: In de gedachten van Dadoy's moeder, Aling Amanda:

Hmmm, baka namamalikmata lang ako. Hmmm, maybe I'm just missing something. Hmmm, misschien mis ik gewoon iets.

Sangkaterba ang mga gamit ng batang madyikero. The boy magician's tools are in disarray. Het gereedschap van de jonge goochelaar is in de war.

May patpat, bato, lata, bolang walang hangin, kapa, at kung anu-ano pa. There are sticks, rocks, cans, balls without air, capes, and anything else. Er zijn stokken, stenen, blikken, ballen zonder lucht, capes en al het andere.

Mga pampalakas daw ito sa magic power niya. It is said that these are reinforcements for his magic power. Er wordt gezegd dat dit versterkingen zijn voor zijn magische kracht.

Isa lang ang pakay ng batang madyikero: The young magician has only one goal: De jonge goochelaar heeft maar één doel:

sugpuin ang mga kalaban. suppress the enemies. onderdruk de vijanden.

Bitin ang baon ko!" angal ni Jay-Jay, na umaalog ang tatlong baba. Hang my pocket!" Jay-Jay yelled, his three chins shaking. Hang mijn zak op!" riep Jay-Jay, zijn drie kinnen trilden.

"Gusto ko ng inumin!" sigaw ni Yuki, "I want a drink!" shouted Yuki, "Ik wil een drink!" riep Yuki,

na parang bagong usbong na palay ang tusok-tusok na buhok. like newly sprouted rice with spiky hair. als pas gekiemde rijst met stekelig haar.

Magsisimula na ang engkuwentro. The encounter will begin. De ontmoeting gaat beginnen.

Sa isang kumpas ng mahiwagang patpat With a wave of the magic wand Met een zwaai van de toverstaf

at isang tumataginting na "Gimokus apolakus!" and a resounding "Gimokus apolakus!" en een volmondig "Gimokus apolakus!"

pagugulungin niya ang ga-higanteng bola patungo sa mga kalaban. he will roll the giant ball towards the opponents.

Napahagikgik siya, He giggled, Hij giechelde,

dahil sa tagdan ng bandila ang bagsak ng dalawa. because of the flag the two failed. vanwege de vlag faalden de twee.

Pero kulang pa 'yon. But that's still not enough.

Magpupulupot siya ng matabang lubid sa mga ito at papaikutin sila na parang turumpo! He will wrap a fat rope around them and make them spin like a drum!

Sa hilo, magkakandarapa sila sa paghabol sa kaniya! In the thread, they will stumble in pursuit of him!

"Sa wakas, hindi na nila ako malalapitan," bulong niya. "Finally, they can't get near me," he whispered.

Maya-maya'y nagsalpukan ang mga tingin ng tatlo. Soon the three's eyes collided.

Simbilis ng kidlat na sinunggaban ng dalawa ang kaniyang baunan. As fast as lightning, the two grabbed his bag.

Gusto man niyang sumigaw, tumiklop ang kaniyang mga labi. Even though he wanted to scream, his lips curled up.

Hindi na gagana ang magic power ko! My magic power won't work anymore!

Hiyaw niya sa sarili. He shouted to himself.

"Astig ang baon mo, a. Bukas ulit, ha," "Your pocket is cool, a. Open again, huh,"

tuya ni Yuki sabay pitik sa nanlalamig niyang tainga. Yuki taunted, flipping his cold ear.

Ni dulo ng kaniyang hintuturo ay hindi niya maikilos. He could not even move the tip of his index finger.

Nilulusaw na ng mga kalaban ang kaniyang mga mahiwagang patpat at kapa. Enemies are dissolving his magical sticks and capes.

Tatlong araw na ang nakalipas, hindi pa rin nakababalik si Dadoy. Three days ago, Dadoy still hasn't returned.

Samantala, panay ang ensayo ng batang madyikero sa harap ng salamin. Meanwhile, the young magician was constantly rehearsing in front of the mirror.

"Abrakadabrus apolakus!" "Abrakadabrus apolakus!"

Kinumpas-kumpas niya ang kaniyang mga kamay sa hangin. He waved his hands in the air.

Biglang umentra si Aling Amanda. Aling Amanda suddenly entered.

"Nasaan na naman ang baunan mo?" "Where's your bag again?"

"E ... " Napangatngat ng kuko ang batang madyikero. "E ... " The young magician bit his nails.

"May naligaw na dalawang gutom na unggoy kahapon sa eskuwelahan. "Two hungry monkeys got lost at school yesterday.

Inagaw po nila ang baunan ko." They stole my bag."

Kinabukasan, pumasok ang batang madyikero na handa para sa panibagong labanan. The next day, the young magician entered ready for another battle.

Sa isang dakot ng mahiwagang pulbos, at isang dumadagundong na With a handful of magical powder, and a rumbling already

"Tendegus apolakus!" "Tendegus apolakus!"

mapapalitan ng atungal ang mga pagtawa nila. their laughter will be replaced by roars.

Hindi na sila makakapag-ha-ha-ha-ha, They can't ha-ha-ha-ha,

kundi puro hu-hu-hu-hu na lang! but just hu-hu-hu-hu!

Hindi lang 'yon. That's not all.

Tutubo sa tiyan nila ang mga binhing isiningit niya sa baon niyang tinapay The seeds he put in his bread bag will grow in their stomachs

at magluluwa sila ng umuusbong na mga sanga. and they will put forth sprouting branches.

Napapalakpak siya sa tuwa. He clapped for joy.

"Hindi na nila ako makakayang tuksuhin at pagtawanan." "They can no longer tease and laugh at me."

Pero winasak ni Yuki ang eksenang iyon. But Yuki ruined that scene.

"Si payatot, o!" bati sa kaniya ni Yuki. "Si payatot, oh!" Yuki greeted him.

Umusok ang ilong ni Dadoy. Dadoy's nose swelled.

"Hoy, kalansay! Ano'ng baon mo ngayon?" "Hey, skeleton! What's in your pocket now?"

Oras na, sabi niya sa sarili. It's time, he told himself.

"Ano 'yan?" tatawa-tawang bulalas ni Jay-Jay. "Pulbos?" "What is that?" Jay-Jay exclaimed with laughter. "Powder?"

Ipinaligo nito ang mahiwagang pulbos sa batang madyikero. It showered the magical powder on the young magician.

''Ayos, mukhang espasol." "Alright, looks like a spazal."

Hindi niya mapigilang umiyak nang dumagsa na ang mga batang naghahalakhakan. He couldn't stop crying when the children started to laugh.

Nang Biyernes ng umaga, halos mamaos si Aling Amanda sa katatawag sa anak. On Friday morning, Aling Amanda almost cried when she called her son.

"Dadoy, tanghali na!" "Dadoy, it's noon!"

Pero bakit kaya walang sumasagot? But why is no one answering?

Hindi pa rin ba nakababalik si Dadoy? Is Dadoy still not coming back?

"O, bakit hindi ka pa bumabangon?" "Oh, why haven't you gotten up yet?"

"May sakit po ako," sagot ni Dadoy habang namamaluktot sa kama. "I'm sick," Dadoy answered while curling up on the bed.

Hinipo ni Aling Amanda ang noo, leeg, at pisngi ni Dadoy. Aling Amanda touched Dadoy's forehead, neck, and cheek.

Kabisado niya ang anak, alam niyang nagdadahilan lang ito. He knew the son, he knew he was just making excuses.

"Hindi ka puwedeng mag-absent. "You can't be absent.

Malapit na ang test ninyo. Your test is coming soon.

Bakit hindi ka gumamit ng magic power para gumaling ka na?" Why didn't you use magic power to heal yourself?"

"Wala na po akong magic power," mahinang sagot ni Dadoy, "I don't have magic power anymore," Dadoy answered weakly,

"Mas magagaling ang mga kalaban ko. "My opponents are better.

May kapangyarihan po silang mang-agaw ng baon at manukso nang hindi napapagod." They have the power to steal money and tease without getting tired."

Tumahimik ang dalawa. The two fell silent.

Tama nga ang kutob ni Aling Amanda kung bakit may kakaiba kay Dadoy nitong mga nakaraang araw. Aling Amanda's hunch was correct as to why there is something strange about Dadoy these past few days.

"Alam mo, Dadoy, hindi mo kailangan ng magic power kapag may kumakalaban sa iyo," "You know, Dadoy, you don't need magic power when someone is fighting you,"

malambing na sabi ni Aling Amanda, habang hinahagod ang likod ng anak. Aling Amanda said softly, while stroking her son's back.

"May alam akong mabisang paraan para masolusyonan 'yan." "I know an effective way to solve that."

Nang umagang iyon, inihatid ng kaniyang mama si Dadoy sa eskuwelahan. That morning, his mom took Dadoy to school.

Kinausap ni Aling Amanda ang guro ni Dadoy tungkol sa mga batang gumugulo sa kaniyang anak. Aling Amanda talked to Dadoy's teacher about the kids who are bothering her son.

Nangako ang guro na ipaaalam niya iyon sa kanilang guidance counselor. The teacher promised to inform their guidance counselor.

Nang oras na ng recess, nilusob ni Dadoy ang silid-aralan nina Jay-Jay at Yuki. When it was recess time, Dadoy invaded Jay-Jay and Yuki's classroom.

"Pandagdag ninyo ito sa baon ninyo. "Add it to your pocket.

Kami ng Mama ko ang naghanda niyan," ngiti ni Dadoy. My mom and I prepared that," Dadoy smiled.

Sumabad ang guro ng dalawa. "Ang bait naman ng kaibigan ninyo. The teacher interrupted the two. "Your friend is smart.

O, Jay-Jay at Yuki, ano'ng dapat ninyong sabihin?" Oh, Jay-Jay and Yuki, what should you say?"

Namula ang mukha nina Jay-Jay a t Yuki sa hiya. Jay-Jay and Yuki's faces turned red from embarrassment.

Napatingin sa kanilang mga sapatos at napilitang magduweto. "Sa....salamat." Looked at their shoes and was forced to do a duet. "To….thank you."

Salamat ang sagot ng dalawa nang kinumbida sila sa kaarawan ni Dadoy. The two answered thank you when they were invited to Dadoy's birthday.

Salamat din ang sagot nila nang nakatanggap sila ng tig-isang kuting. They also responded with thanks when they received a kitten each.

Parang nagkaroon ng magic power ang salitang iyon. It was as if that word had magic power.

Dahil unti-unti nang nanumbalik sa dati si Dadoy. Because Dadoy has gradually returned to his old self.

At naging magkakalaro pa ang tatlo. And the three even became players.

Ayon naman kay Aling Amanda, hindi na raw ulit nagpakita ang batang madyikero. According to Aling Amanda, the young magician never appeared again.
