Patuloy pa din sa pag-iisip si Denise sa nakitang mga papeles. Hindi talaga niya inaasahang may ipapamana sa kanya ang kanyang ama na ganung kalaking halaga.
“Denise, Mom is coming!” warning ni Nancy kina Louie at Denise habang paparating ang sasakyan ni Mrs. Wilma Allen kasama ang panganay na anak na si Annie.
Pagka-park sa garage, pumasok na din ang mag-ina. Una niyang nakita ang bisita si Louie.
“And who are you?” mataray na tanong ni Mrs. Allen kay Louie.
“Ahh… ahh… I’m Louie Gutierrez, a friend of Denise. I’m here to court your daughter, Ma’am.” magalang na sabi ng binata.
Agad napatingin si Denise kay Louie. Nagulat siya sa sinabi ng binata. May halong kilig at tuwa ang naramdaman ng dalaga. Kinindatan naman siya ni Louie.
“Are you Spanish? Mexican?” tanong ni Mrs. Allen.
“No, Ma’am. I’m pure Filipino. I’m not Spanish. I just look like one.” pabirong sabi ni Louie.
“Not funny.” mataray na sagot ni Mrs. Allen.
“And correction. Denise is not my daughter. She is an illegitimate child. Ask her dad.” pahabol ni Mrs. Allen.
Hindi na nagulat si Louie sa sinabi ng matanda. Alam na naman niya ang mga bagay na iyon dahil nagkwento na si Denise about that matter a long time ago.
Biglang napansin ni Mrs. Allen ang envelope na hawak ni Denise.
“And what is that?” sabay hablot ng envelope mula sa mga kamay ng dalaga.
“I’m the one who’s supposed to ask you, Mom. The papers said that it was delivered to us last month, and it needed my signature ASAP. I was not aware of it. Luckily, Louie found it under the sofa.” paliwanag ni Denise.
“You read the papers, right? It says there that you cannot get the benefits of the fund until you reach the age of 21, which will happen next year.” sabi ni Mrs. Allen habang binabasa ang mga papeles.
“And it also says that my signature is needed. So I need to sign the papers right now.” sabi ni Denise.
“No way! This is my household and I have the right to do what I want!” mataray na sabi ni Mrs. Allen.
“No way too! You’re unfair! Let me have those papers.” nagmamakaawang sabi ni Denise habang pilit na inaagaw ang mga papeles sa kanyang stepmother.
