Hayden's POV

I woke up to the sound of the KingKong of the house. I grunted because I haven't slept good in while.
I ignored the sounds from downstairs and decided to sleep again.

"ALEXANDRA! TANGHALI NA!" (ITS LUNCHTIME).

Does she have her own time?! It is 7 am in the fucking morning! I'm kinda used to it because I'm Filipino, well if you know you know... When she was about to bang on my door, she was stopped by somebody.

"Let her sleep for a while Camille, please let her be," my Papa said. I could see right through the door that she rolled her eyes.

"May chismis kase ako eh" (I have some gossip). Well well well, what is tea?! It's so early. I will know that later, for now, sleep.

It was now 10 am and my dad's side of the family are coming over too because of the ball. I did my morning routine and showered. I wore comfy clothes because why not. I got downstairs and soon as I step on the last step of the stairs, I sprinted to find KingKong.

"Tia?..."

Not in the kitchen. Not in the lounge. Not in the dining. I searched everywhere around the house nothing. I looked at the garden and there was KingKong.

"Hey there KingKong- I mean Tia, got any news?" I said with wiggled eyebrows.

"Oh yes I have, go get your breakfast and eat here, I'll tell you"

I quickly get my breakfast and sit.

"You remember your tita Shane? One of my kumares..." (Tita means aunt and kumares means friends or let's say, gossip buddy). I nodded.

"So you know Shane told me that the unica hija of the Garcia family got pregnant and she is only 16 and they don't know the father"

I almost spit my water.

"Well, I think that she got pregnant because they can take care of the child. The father is a pussy though. They should not have created it if they can't take the responsibility" she hummed as a sign of approval.

"So what else?"

"So you know the Santos family... They are in debt because of the head of the family" I tried to remember the Santos. That family is so mean. They don't look back where they came from. I guess karma.

"What happened to the money?" I curiously asked.

"You know gambling, casinos and strip clubs" I made an 'oooh' face because it's fucked up. God, I love Filipinas.

"I can not believe that you are in here, in New York and still receives gossip from the Philippines" We laughed.

"It's me of course, I should know about anything that's happening to that country" I laughed.

"As you should" I miss this woman.

"Tia, why are you so moody for the past few days?" I saw her smile.

"You're gonna be a big cousin again!" She said tearfully. I gigantic smile spread across my face. I cried too and hug her.

"I WIN THE BET!" I shouted with matching crazy dance.

"What bet?" She said with raised eyebrows.

"Well my fathers and I made a bet if you are pregnant or not, me and dad won! I'm 100 dollars richer!" She shook her head and laughed.
