"Congratulations, beh! Pst, libre ka naman diyan, nagugutom na ako. Nakapagpaalam na ako kay mommy at daddy na hindi na sasabay sakanila." Denise said. Fiona grinned mischievously at her.
"Tamo. Nanalo ka din naman, ah! Wala ng libre, tsk tsk. Sayo lang talaga nauubos pera ko." Fiona complained. Denise pouted.
"Para ka namang hindi kaibigan. Lab mo ba ako, beh? para kang others. At saka, isa kang ARANE-
"Irarason mo na naman ang apelyido ko. Osige na nga." Fiona said. Denise then hugged her and pinched her nose.
"Labyuu, beh! Dabest ka talaga." Denise whispered. Fiona just rolled her eyes. Clara overheard them and she was furious because she didn't win.
Hindi pa sila nakakaalis dahil kausap pa ni Callista ang dati niyang professor. Nagchichismisan naman si Denise at Fiona habang nakatayo naman malapit kay Greggy si Clara.
Imee walked toward her daughter. "Calli, they're waiting for you. Tama na ang pakikichismis kay Mrs. Lopez." Imee whispered to her. Calli grinned.
"Sorry. Prof, pano po 'yan, aalis na po kami. I'll see you soon nalang po. Thanks for the short chika. I miss you, Prof." Calli said before hugging her.
"It's okay. Your family is waiting for you, masyado ka ng tigang sa chismis, anak." Mrs. Lopez replied.
"Mauna na kami, Mrs. Lopez." Imee said and shook her hand.
Lopez nodded her head. "Mag-iingat kayo, Sen. Congratulations pala kay Fiona." She said. Imee and Callista excuse themselves.
Imee thought of having a family dinner to celebrate the event. She approached Fiona.
"Let's have dinner, nang." She smiled. Fiona avoided her gaze.
"Let's celebrate your victory, an-
Fiona interrupted her mom, "Uhh....Uhmm...Hmm..hehe.." She said.
"May lakad po kami ng friend ko, right Denise?" Fiona said, as she secretly pinched Denise's arm.
"H-huh? W-wala tayong lakad diba? gago to." Denise said. They heard her. Imee looked at Fiona.
"Meron kasi." Fiona said. Pinandilatan niya naman ng mata si Denise.
"Sen, Tita Irene. Mayroon daw sabi niya. Hehe." Denise said.
"I'm not going with you, Tita. Importante po ito." Fiona said. Imee couldn't believe so, she asked her again.
"Nangnang? Pati ba naman ako tatanggihan mo?" She said.
Fiona gulped. "No tita. H-hindi ganon yon. May importanteng lakad lang talaga kami ni Denise." She answered avoiding Imee's gaze. Irene was staring at her daughter.
"Ano ba ang mas importante? yung lakad niyo o kami?" Imee asked her.
Fiona tightened her fist and kept her head down. Imee was disappointed with Fiona's behavior towards her.
"I'm waiting for your response, Fionabella Celestine." Imee said firmly.
Irene and Greggy didn't intervene. They let Imee do the convincing.
"Pwede mo namang isama si Denise satin e." Imee added. Denise sighed.
"E? Tita, importante po talaga 'to." Fiona inisted.
Even though she wanted to join, Fiona didn't want to see her twin siblings who were the cause of her earlier problems.
"Are you sure? You know the consequences, Fiona," Imee warned her. Fiona swallowed nervously.
