Honeybunch Sugarplum

Chapter 16

"Yeah i know, that's why i'm sorry irene. Infact me and your daughters are okay na, i already apologized to them, and they helped me na makipag ayos sayo specifically kay lassa." imee said sincerely.

It's already 6:00 in the evening at kasalukuyan pa ring nakababad ang mga bata which is si liza ang nagga-guide sa kanila sa pool, while bonget, greggy and tommy are talking and joking on the veranda with imelda and ferdy.

Yep, they were complete.

As usual imee and irene were in the living room, talking. "The macarons, i-irene that's for you talaga. The kids tell me na you love those daw, which i bought naman for you para naman kahit papaano gumaan loob mo." she added.

"I don't like those." irene said firmly.

They were both sitting on the sofa now, irene turned her back to her ate with her arms crossed while imee tried to face irene with her. "Irene.." imee murmured.

"Sila. Sila ang may gusto non, sinunod mo naman?" irene asked her, "I-i didn't kn-" imee was about to speak when irene cut her off. "Lagi mo na lang hindi alam, ano ate pati ba naman sa pagkain na gusto ko nakakalimutan mo na? Una yung pagpapakain mo kay lassa ng oatm-" irene said as she stood up and face her ate, then imee cut her off at tumayo rin.

"I said I didn't mean it, bakit ba ang kulit mo!"

"Tapos ngayon nakakalimutan mo na rin yung mga comfort foods ko sa tuwing nag-aaway tayo? Ate, you used to know that. Anong nangyayare sayo?" irene asked her.

Small things.

But they're making it bigger.

How nice.

"No hindi totoo yan, their ideas matters to me, your daughters ideas matter. Ayoko namang i-etsapwera lang yon dahil anak mo sila. Pamangkin ko sila, irene." imee answered with teary eyed.

"Yun na nga ate eh, pamangkin mo sila pero kung takutin mo sila ganun ganun na lang!" irene shouted with teary eyed and so imee.

"I already apologized to them, bakit ba ang kulit mo!" imee said while suppressing her tears to fall down.

"What was that again? Macarons? Talaga lang ah, for real ate you think madadala mo ako sa ganyan mo? Well no!" irene said stubbornly which imee cried, "Ako na nga nagso-sorry sayo ikaw pa tong galit sa akin, edi wag! But still i'm sorry. Now i did my thing, excuse me." imee said as she walked out and go directly to their room and so irene papunta sa guest room.

They were on imee's house.

Greggy, Tommy and bonget on the other hand is gossiping their girls. "Ahh? Na-ah, i don't think kaya or gusto pa ni irene manganak. My sweetie pie are okay na, we already talked about this like so, so many times." greggy said because tommy asked him kung hindi na ba talaga masusundan sila lassa at tiya.

"Si bonget, siya tanungin niyo. Isa lang ba talaga??" greggy asked while chuckling. "We do have a fam. Plan, hindi muna ngayon.." bonget said directly, "Basta ako? Whatever the gender is, as long as marami I'll be grateful. Rigth mahal?" imelda asked her wife, which ferdy nodded.

"Of course my imelda.." ferdy said which everyone gets kilig. "I think our wives are okay na, why don't we checked on them?" greggy suggested, "Ohh yeah, i think so. Let's go" tommy said and they both go in the living room to see their wives.

Imee and irene are now in their respective rooms, hugging their pillows and crying endlessly like a child.
