"Ate, pwede ka ba magluto para pag-uwi ni Ann?" Michelle asks as she tries to find the best place for the welcome back flowers she got for Anntonia in the living room.
"Ano pong lutuin?" Ate Irma asks from the kitchen.
"Sinigang, maybe?"
"Ay, di po kumakain ng sinigang yun si Ms. Ann," Ate Irma says.
"What?" she asks in shock, completely forgetting the flowers, as she turns to Ate Irma.
"Lagi nya lang pinapaluto kasi favorite nyo daw, pero sabi nya sakin isang beses di nya gusto ang sinigang, hate nya nga daw po talaga."
"What the-" she frowns and curses, and then turns to Rhian who was also in the kitchen. "Did you know this?"
"No," Rhian shakes her head clueless.
"Wag nyo po sabihing sinabi ko!" Ate Irma suddenly says in a slightly louder tone. "Prinomise ko pong di sasabihin sa inyo pala yun."
"She eats naman if we have it as our ulam though," Rhian comments.
"Tigas talaga ng ulo, kaloka," she shakes her head with a sigh. "Di nalang sinabi dati pa."
"Eh sabi mo kasi favorite mo, girl."
"Still," she continues on shaking her head, closes her eyes for second to control her emotions once again and let's it go. "Ay ewan. Jollibee nalang, let's order?"
"Are you picking her up?"
"Yeah," she nods. "Her aunt is there waiting with her for discharge. Told her to wait for me to go there after my shoot. Just had to come by here to take a shower and bring the flowers."
"Okay, text me when you've picked her up so I can go get the Jollibee."
"Thanks, wifey."

She posts the photo of her and Anntonia from earlier in her IG story- it was of Michelle smiling widely behind the wheelchair where Anntonia was seated on, holding a balloon that Michelle brought earlier to cover her face. It was a blue balloon originally with a "It's a boy!" written on it but Michelle placed a paper over the boy part and replaced it, now saying IT'S AN APPENDIX!
She placed a text caption along with the story: We're proud to announce that it's a bouncing, baby... appendix!
Rhian messages her a few minutes after.
Lakas talaga ng trip nyong dalawa eh noh?
On our way home, by the way
Ninang ka ha
Sure, just tell me when ang binyag.
Almost a minute later, a notification pops up on Michelle's phone that Rhian posted a story. She opens it and finds that Rhian reposted her story with her own caption Can't wait to meet the little bundle of joy. #NinangRhian
Eh di mas malaki trip mo dyan, nag repost ka pa at nag Ninang-Ninangan
"You okay?" Michelle asks Anntonia after noticing her wince. Anntonia was seated by the window seat and Michelle was in the middle seat, her left arm around Anntonia's shoulders.
"Just the bumps."
"Kuya, pa try po padahan-dahan," Michelle requests.
"Sige po," Kuya Francis nods and Michelle feels the car go a little slower.
