The Sy Mansion was as grand as ever, with its towering pillars and sprawling gardens, but for Xander Sy, it was just home. He couldn't help but smile as he entered the gates, eager to see his little sister after being away in Japan for so long. The moment the car stopped, he bolted out, nodding quickly at the butlers and maids who greeted him. He didn't want to wake Euphy, but he couldn't wait to see her.
Without missing a beat, Xander headed straight to Euphy's room. When he saw her peacefully sleeping, he felt a rush of affection. He quietly approached and gently hugged her, which instantly woke her up.
Euphy's POV
I woke up feeling someone's arms around me. My eyes shot open to see who it was.
"Oh my God!" I screamed, startled.
"Oh, bakit ka sumisigaw? May masakit ba? Tell me," a familiar voice said.
"W-wait, Oppa? What are you doing here?" I asked, still groggy but now wide awake. My heart leaped with joy as I recognized my brother, Xander. I immediately hugged him back. It had been so long since I last saw him.
"I thought you were still in Japan?" I asked, my voice full of disbelief.
"Bakit, ayaw mo na ba akong makita?" Xander teased.
"Tss... Of course not! I missed you, Oppa," I admitted, feeling the warmth of our sibling bond.
Third Person's POV
Xander grinned, satisfied with Euphy's reaction. As the oldest, he was always the one who kept the family in check, and seeing his little sister this happy made him feel like he was doing something right.
Just then, Kier, the middle child, barged into the room, rubbing his eyes and looking annoyed.
"What's with all the noise?!" he complained, still half-asleep. But the moment he saw Xander, his annoyance turned into shock.
"Hyung? What are you doing here?" Kier asked, his voice filled with surprise.
"Why? Hindi ka ba masaya na makita ako?" Xander replied, raising an eyebrow with a smirk.
"Of course I am happy, Hyung! I missed you," Kier quickly responded, though he couldn't shake off the feeling of impending doom. Xander was back, and that usually meant trouble for him.
"Tss... Enough na. Magbihis na kayo, we're going out," Xander commanded, his tone leaving no room for arguments.
"Where are we going, Oppa?" Euphy asked, curious and excited.
"Basta, just get dressed. We're heading out," Xander replied with a wink.
Kier tried to resist. "Kayo na lang. May gagawin pa ako," he muttered, hoping to get out of it.
Xander shot him a glare that could freeze the sun. "WHAT? You have something to say, Kier?" he asked, his voice dropping dangerously.
"A-ah, wala! Sabi ko nga, magbibihis na ako," Kier stammered, knowing better than to argue with Xander when he was in this mood. There was no escape now.
Euphy's POV
At the Amusement Park
When we arrived at the amusement park, I couldn't help but marvel at the sight. It was vibrant and full of life, just like how I imagined.
"Wow, ang ganda naman dito!" I exclaimed, spinning around to take it all in.
"Princess, nagustuhan mo ba? O gusto mong lumipat ng place?" Xander asked, his voice soft and caring.
"Of course, Oppa! I really, really like it!" I replied, my face lighting up with excitement.
"That's good to know," Xander said, smiling.
Meanwhile, Kier was less than thrilled. "Tss... Ano to? Bakit tayo nandito? Pambata lang tong lugar na to eh," he grumbled, crossing his arms.
"Hoy, Kier, may sinasabi ka?" Xander asked, his tone warning him not to push it.
"Wala," Kier muttered, but his pout said otherwise.
I grabbed both of their arms, pulling them along. "C'mon mga oppa, let's not argue, okay? This is our bonding time," I said, trying to keep the peace.
Xander chuckled. "Princess, don't mind that idiot. And you," he pointed at Kier, "umayos ka."
"Fine, fine," Kier sighed, giving in. He couldn't stay mad when Euphy was around.
"Oppa, this is our sibling date, kaya dapat walang away," I said, putting on my best puppy-dog eyes.
"Okay, my Princess," Xander agreed.
"Okay, okay! Don't be sad, Baby Princess. Smile na, okay?" Kier added, ruffling my hair.
"Yehey! Tara na!" I cheered, leading the way to the rides.
We spent the day riding everything we could, taking photos at every turn. It was exhausting, but I was having the time of my life.
"Haaay, pagod naman pero nag-enjoy ako! Tara, punta tayong coffee shop, Oppa," I suggested, catching my breath.
"Okay! As you wish, my Princess," Xander agreed, letting me pull him towards the coffee shop.
Kier lagged behind, shaking his head. "Yah, Hyung, don't spoil her too much. Baka maging spoiled brat yan," he teased.
"Ha! Ikaw nga rin, sobra ka nga sa pag-spoil kay Princess, kunwari ka pa." Xander shot back with a laugh.
"Of course! She's our one and only Princess," Kier replied, giving me a playful nudge.
"Thank you, Oppa! Kaya love na love ko kayo eh," I said, kissing them both on the cheek.
"Kita mo yun, Hyung? May kiss ako from Princess!" Xander gloated.
"Ha! Akala mo ikaw lang? Ako rin kaya! Belat," Kier retorted, sticking his tongue out playfully.
"Tss... Tara na nga! Princess, what do you want to eat?" Xander asked.
"Ikaw na bahala, Oppa!" I replied, trusting his judgment.
"Okay, sige. Hoy, Kier, what do you want? Tara, let's order," Xander said, pulling Kier along.
"Okay," Kier agreed, following him to the counter.
I found us a table and sat down. As I was settling in, I felt a tap on my shoulder. I turned around to see who it was...
