"Pau sorry ha, bawi ako. Take the lead, alam mo naman na what to do. You are not the 'pinuno' for nothing." Yani said as he talked to Pablo over the phone. 

"Tss. 'to naman nambola pa. Sige sige, pahinga na kuya Yani. Get well soon, kayo ni Jah." Pablo answered. 

Supposedly, 1Z has a meeting today to discuss ideas and future initiatives but Justin and Yani were unable to attend. Sabay pa silang nagkasakit. It's nothing major tho, just colds and coughs, but the doctor says they should take it easy and rest para hindi na lumala. 

So the siblings are just at home; they were in their rooms resting. Yani was just lying down on his bed and listening to Spotify while Justin was sketching. Both fell asleep until they heard a knock in their room. It was Aling Gloria, their house help. 

"Yani, baba na 'nak. Tawag na kayo ng mama niyo, kakain na." Aling Gloria called, went to Yani's room first, then next to Justin's. 

"Justin 'nak, baba na. Kakain na." she repeated to the younger, calling him for lunch. 

They used to eat together whenever they're home. Hindi pwedeng sa kwarto kakain not unless sobrang sama ng pakiramdam nila, so they both went down. 

Yani and Justin sat down side by side. 

They were halfway through their meal, someone rang their doorbell so Aling Gloria got up and checked, few minutes after, she showed up with a bouquet of sunflowers. 

"Galing po kay Ken." Aling Gloria announces. 

Justin: "Thank you po, pakilagay nalang po sa room." 

Yani: "Salamat 'nay, dyan nalang po muna sa sofa, ako na mag aakyat later."

Sabay nilang sabi. They glanced at each other. 

"I think kuya it's from my Ken." Justin said

"Hmm? I think It's from Ken." Yani answered.  

Justin took a quick look at his phone, he saw a message from Ken saying, "I sent flowers 'ga, I hope it will brighten up your mood. Rest well."

"It's from my Ken kuya." Justin said with finality. 

A smirking Yani showed up a message from his cellphone to Justin which reads, "I sent you sunflowers, Yani. I hope you'll get better soon." 

Yani then repeated what he said earlier, "'Nay Gloria pakilagay nalang po sa sofa, isabay ko nalang po sa pag sa akyat later. Salamat po." still wearing a mischievous smile.  

"Yani-1, Justin-0?" their Mama Gemma teased. Justin just rolled his eyes. 

"May daisy din dito, galing din kay Ken." Aling Gloria said then lift her other hand holding a bouquet of orange, pink and yellow daisies. 

Just in time when Justin received another message from Ken, "And oh, it's daisies to cheer you up." 

'Gosh Ken, bakit naman ngayon mo lang sinabi kung anong flower sinend mo' Justin thought.

 "Ah, yan po from Ken ko na talaga, makisuyo nalang po 'nay Gloria na iakyat po sa room ko, ako na po mag arrange sa vase, thank you po, tapos upo ka na po ulit, ituloy niyo na po yung pagkain niyo." mahabang wika ni Justin.
