6: Kuya's visit

Its been 3 weeks since we went camping. We have been in all sorts of picnics and beach trips.

Today is a weekend again but we decided to take a break from it. I was with Domeng trying shoot a basketball.

"Ate bend your knees... ganyan!" I shoot and it went in.

"WOHOOO! ATE GOT A SCORE!" Domeng ran and screamed. I have been teaching him english and it's been fun.

"Naka pasok?" Jeo asked as he was walking over to us. I nod. "I shot a ball."

He smiled and ran over to me carrying me. "NAKASHOOT ANG BABY KO!"

I laughed at the two. Domeng was dancing while Jeo kept dancing with me still over his shoulders.

"OKAY OA NYO!" I said.

The doorbell rang on the gate. Jeo put me down softly and we walk over to see who.

"Hello po? Sino po sila?" Jeo asked. I squeeze myself between Jeos chest and the gate to look outside.

"Kuya?!" I said confusingly. "Oh thank god you're here princess." Jeo opened the gate wide for me and I stepped out. He hugged me.

"Kuya." I hugged him back.

"I thought I was gonna go crazy on all the neighbours until I found you. You weren't at home." He sighs.

"I am home. I'm with the Ongs." I smiled. I look behind to see Domeng and Jeo smiling.

"Come! I'll introduce you to them!" I said grabbing his hand. "Oh okay?" Kuya said surprisingly. I introduced him to everyone.

"Jeo! Di ka ba mag papakilala?!" Tito Geo said laughing.

I knew what he meant. "Uh. Kuya this is Jeo."

"I know you told me." Kuya Sean smiled.

"Manliligaw po ako ni Camellia." Jeo suddenly said.

"Oh!" Kuya said surprised. "Wow ligaw still exist?" He looks at me.

"Conyo sya ate parang ikaw." Domeng laughs. Tito hits Domeng like he did the first time I was here.

"Yes kuya someone actually cares enough to court me get over it." I roll my eyes.

"If manliligaw ka. Then ligawan mo din ako. Dapat tipong mapapa oo ako. Pangarap ko pa naman maging strict na kuya kaso tong isa jan ang landi." My eyes went wide.

"What malandi? Hello most of them were dads business partners children." I roll my eyes again. "And what strict kuya. Ikaw nga nag pakita sakin pano uminom." All the kuyas and tito laugh.

"Hey we can argue on that later. But Jeo I will be here for 3 days. I will see your intentions with my sister. Trust me she needs a boy who can deal with our crazy family." Kuya crosses his arms.

I look around to see that everyone seemed to be enjoying this.

"I'll do anything sir." That was hot. My man right there. Well not yet.

"Good. Now come on Emelia i have something to show you." He sighs. We both bid our goodbyes with tita telling us to comeback for dinner.
