After a fifteen-minute drive, the car stopped. "We're here," she said, honking the horn. A large black gate came into view, opening moments later as she restarted the car and drove through.  "Hijo, pag-pasensyahan mo na kung maliit ang bahay namin, " she said humbly.  He shook his head. "It's alright, ma'am. I should be apologizing for possibly intruding—" He stopped mid-sentence as the car pulled up to a house that made Stell's eyes widen in disbelief.

"Small? Where's the small part…!?" he exclaimed involuntarily.  "Stell…? Hijo?" she called, noticing his silence.  Startled, he hadn't realized he was the only one left in the car; Grace was outside, smiling and waiting for him. He quickly got out, apologizing profusely, "S-sorry…po" He scratched the back of his neck, embarrassed. "Don't worry about it. Now, let's go," she said, smiling.  Then, he paused, remembering something. "But… what about your groceries?"

"don't worry about that hijo, sila na ang bahala .." Sila?, naintindihan niya ang ibig sabihin ni tita ng mapansin ang mga tao sa kanilang likuran. "So shall we .." tanong ulit niya, tumango ako as she put her hand on my arm guiding me inside her house.

Behind us followed the people carrying the things she just bought, binalingan niya ang mga ito. Pakidala na lang sa kusina lahat ng pinamili ko, nakangiting bilin niya. Pare-pareho silang tumango bago umalis. We walked through a hallway leading to their living room as she made me sit on the couch, "maiwan muna kita saglit, pupunta lang ako sa kusina" nakangiting sabi ni tita. "And if you need anything don't hesitate to tell them okay." bilin niya sa akin. "Ayos ka lang ba dito ..?" I can see that she doesn't want to leave yet, so I smile giving her assurance. She smiled back, napangiti ako dahil may pahabol pa siya bago umalis. "Don't forget what I told you!" And I can't help but to giggle.

A few minutes had passed when Stell got bored. Lumapit siya na naka-ngiti sa isang babae."uhm hi, excuse me ..?" lumingon ito sa kanya "bakit po sir?"

"can you tell me where the kitchen is?" iniwanan niya ang ginagawa upang sinamahan ako. "Dito po," turo niya sakin habang nakasunod ako sa kaniya.
