Just got home, Madam.
Sorry for the late reply.
Thank God. I was getting worried!
Dahan-dahan lang naman po sa pagpapakilig, miss. Baka hindi ako makatulog mamaya.
Luh, itong vet na 'to.
Kinikilig ka na riyan? 🙄
Makita pa nga lang kita, kinikilig na ako.
How much more in times like this, when you're acting like a worried wife?
Wife agad?
Hindi ba pwedeng girlfriend muna?
Law of attraction, Madam. Mangangarap na lang din ako, e 'di sasagarin ko na. 🤞🏻
Dami mong alam, Javier. 😂
I'll take that as a compliment. Thanks! 😁
Hay naku. Kaya nagkasundo kayo agad ni Kuya Israel, e. Parehas kayong mahangin!
Haha! Mas malala naman sa akin ang bayaw mo. It was nice to meet him, by the way.
Kuya Israel is such a cool guy.
Oo, chill lang 'yon. Kaya nga perfect guy 'yon para sa ate ko. He balances her, 'cause Ate Genie tends to be high-strung sometimes.
Yeah, I noticed that she seemed a little tense tonight. What gives?
I think she's being anxious over the possibility of getting asked about her miscarriage. You know how it is with relatives, minsan hindi nakakapagpigil ang iba. 😔
Your sister miscarried?
Oh, God. I didn't know. I'm sorry.
It was supposed to be their second baby. Buti nga, walang bumanggit ni isa sa mga kamag-anak namin. Baka binantaan ni Kuya Israel na iki-kickout mula sa party ang sino mang magbanggit, hehe.
Maybe. Kuya Israel seems really protective of his wife. I wouldn't put it past him. 🙂
Swerte nga ni ate kay kuya, e. Sana all, pinoprotektahan. 🙈
Quick! Where's my superhero cape?
Hahaha! Bwisit ka talaga, Dokie.
You charmed the hell out of my family with that humor, did you know?
Really? Wow. I am relieved to hear that. Grabe kaya ang ngatog ng tuhod ko noong ipinakilala mo ako sa parents mo.
Seryoso? 😂
You have no idea, Leigh. Look, this might just be my imagination, but I think your dad shot laser beams through his eyes when you introduced me as your suitor.
Did he now? Maswerte ka pa rin kaya, Fin.
Dad isn't as strict as he was before, probably because I'm already pushing thirty.
Is that so? Poor Kuya Israel, then. He and Ate Genie were college sweethearts, right?
Right. But actually, madali rin namang nakuha ni Kuya Israel ang loob ni Dad. The struggle was Ate Genie's, dahil hindi niya alam kung paano sasabihin sa tatay namin na may manliligaw na siya. 😂
Your mom is really sweet, though.
Parang gusto na niyang ipakasal tayong dalawa, haha!
Ugh. Sorry about that! Mom and Tita Juni were acting totally crazy. Pati si Tita Rizzi, nakisali na rin! 🤦🏻♀️
Hey, don't worry about it. I adore your mom and your aunts.
Probably because they adore you, too? 😛
You got me. 😉 Your brother and his fiancée, on the other hand...
OMG. Don't tell me na tinakot ka nina Rus at Jem? Don't mind them. Malakas lang talaga ang trip ng mag-jowang 'yon.
Jem keeps hinting that Rus has black belts for both taekwondo and judo. Should I be scared now?
Well, if you have plans to break my heart, then yes. Do you?
Of course I don't. Guess I'm safe from getting judo-flipped, then. 😁
Yeah. I guess you are. 😊
