Maloi's POV 




"She asked me to be her date sa party ng daddy niya because her boyfriend can't come. I said no. Can you believe it, my dear friends? I rejected Sheena! The woman I used to love for more than 10 years!" Gwen exclaimed while telling us how she rejected Sheena. She took a bite of her food pa while looking proudly at Mikha and I.




It's just the three of us today because Gian is with Queen and Colet is missing in action again. She said she needs a break away from everything and we can't blame her. She's always busy with her company plus her relationship with Chie is unstable right now. Nasa bahay lang kami and looking out for baby Aiah, my wife is still at work. My wife. It makes me feel giddy all of a sudden. I'll never stop falling for her. Stacey -- my kryptonite. 




"Oh? Happy?" Mikha asked sarcastically.




"What a way to ruin the mood there, Mikhs!" Gwen rolled her eyes. 




"The design is very mag babarkadang 1 guy and bisexuals who like girls tapos may isang naligaw." Mikha bantered.




"Oh bakit? Ang sarap kaya ng hotdog every morning or any time." Gwen said in as-a-matter-of-fact tone as she gets the last piece of hotdog on the plate. She took a bite of it while giving us her not usual face. 'yong parang nang-aakit. Ang asim! 




"Are we still talking about the food here?" I asked Gwen seriously. "Nandito anak ko, mahiya ka naman." I added. Gwen raised her two hands while doing that kiss gesture to me and baby Aiah. How disgusting! 




Aiah looked at me innocently and asked, "Mommy why is Ninang Gwen's face like that? It's scary!" she said and hide at my back.




"Kita mo! Pati 'yong bata natakot sa'yo. Teka, where's Colet?" Mikha asked. 




I was about to say something when Gian entered the house, looking frustrated and hurt at the same time.




"She's in Sydney. Probably with Jhoanna right now." He said while showing us Colet's instagram story. It was a picture of Sydney airport with a caption, See you. 




"Really? What happened ba?" Gwen asked.
