"Mommy! Daddy!" Sigaw ni Amara palapit sa kanila.

"Halika dito sa akin." Thirdy ordered her as she helped her little girl sit on his lap.

"Do we have money now po?"

"Bakit mo prinoproblema yan, anak?" Bea asked.

"Kasi si Grandma umiiyak, sabi po nya we don't have money anymore."

"Listen, Amara, happiness has nothing to do with money, okay? If you're happy, if you have a happy life, a job that you love, and a family that loves you, then mayaman ka." Thirdy explained

"Then, we are rich po."

"Yes, are you happy?"

"I'm happy!" Sabi ni Bea.

"I'm happy din po, we are rich!"

"I have a surprise for you." Sabi ni Bea kay Amara. "Do you remember the gardens in the fairy tales? Gagawa ng ganun si Mommy."

"Wow, can I see po?"

"Yes, titingnan nating 3 with Daddy."

"Maybe you will be a landscape designer like your Mommy." Sabi ni Thirdy.

"I want to be a doctor po."

The parents were impressed.

"Anong klaseng doctor naman?" Bea asked.

"Children's doctor po. I'll make my own brother."

Thirdy laughed.

"Amara, how many times have we talked about this?" Sita ni Bea.

"Do you want to make your own brother?" Thirdy asked.

"Hindi nakakatawa."

"Hindi nga but I think it's a great idea. Maybe 8 brothers?"

"Mas mabuti dalhin na natin sa school si Amara."

"Gusto mo ba magpunta sa school?" Bulong ni Thirdy kay Amara.

"Papasok sya!"

"Diba gusto mo make stay with Daddy?"

"Ikaw ang tumawag sa school director!"

"When I was sick, you placed your whole life on a backseat for me kaya ngayon, I'm doing the same thing for you."

"Ano na gagawin mo ngayon?" Bea asked.

"I'll think of something."

"Andito lang ako, Thirds. Whatever decision you make, ano man gusto mo, you just have to tell me."

They kissed.

"You look funny po." Amara came.

They pretended that something went inside Thirdy's eye.

"I have a lot to do po today."

"Ha? Busy ka, Amara?" Thirdy asked.

"My teacher gave me an assignment po, I need to film the whole family."

"Huh?"

"I will ask you, all of you a question po and then you will answer tapos ivivideo."

"I have a beautiful idea, we will invite all of our family tonight." Thirdy proposed.

"Are you kidding me, Daddy?"

"No, of course not. Tatawagan ko silang lahat."

"Don't joke, Daddy."
