ELEVEN: "Whether you like it or not." ✍️
"I CALLED your attention to be here today because I want you all to know that your aunt Fidelia and I will be getting married this coming first Sunday of May before we ever go back to our hometown in Koronadal," uncle Alanson announced when we were all gathered in the veranda of the resthouse.
"After you'll get married, both auntie Fidelia and sis Irryn will be living with us in our home at Koronadal, dad?" Rhian asked in joy and excitement.
We had settled into the center of a large rattan sofa. My brother Ryle and I sat facing our parents, who were joined by Rhian sitting between us.
"Of course, dear. Both of them would be living with us."
"And that means sis Irryn will also attend the same school as mine?" she continued asking and turned to look at me smiling.
I smiled back happily.
I am so thankful that she treats me like a real sister, as well as Ryle does. Only one does not.
"Yes. You, your sis Irryn and your brother Zackarius will go to school together every morning."
"Great! I'm excited!"
"You want to be with sis Irryn every time going to school, huh?" Ryle teased the youngest.
"Yes, because she said she will braid my hair when we go to school!"
"So, that's the reason, huh? You just want to go together with sis Irryn because she would do you a favor! Tss, what a behavior!"
"What? Oh, come on, big brother! Get lost, please, urgh!" Rhian rolled her eye and turned to her dad. "Dad, look at my big bro. He's teasing me again!"
"Both of you, stop it, especially you, Ryle. Stop teasing your youngest sibling." Calm and with a gentle grin, uncle said reproved them both.
Rhian evilly curled her lips and even raised her brows in winning because their father lowkey sided with her.
"But, Rhian baby... isn't your big bro right?" uncle joked around too.
"Daddy!"
The middle-aged man laughed his lungs out. "Hahaha! Kidding!"
Rhian pouted childishly. "I hate you both!"
"Love you!" uncle continued teasing his youngest daughter.
"Love you, Rhian, to the moon and back!" Ryle followed chuckling.
"Urgh!" Rhian continued rolling her eyes in frustration.
Cute. I love how dad and big bro of the family tease their youngest and only girl.
"The three of you, that's enough. Alanson and Ryle, stop teasing Rhian now. I know her purpose of wanting to go with Irryn to school every morning is good, and she has the pure intention of knowing more about her stepsister." Mom spoke and sided with Rhian.
"Awwe. That's my auntie Fidelia! Love you so much, auntie!" Rhian lovingly hugged mom.
The latter responded to the hug like Rhian was also her real daughter. "And I love you more!"
"Wow. So, we're defeated here!" Uncle Alanson raised his palms, getting defeated.
"Can't say anything now. Auntie is such a mother dear material." Ryle gave up, too.
"Because she's right and on point!" Rhian said to the two boys, and then she turned sweetly to mom. "Anyways, auntie, sis Irryn told me that you can also braid hair like a pro. Can you sometimes braid my hair?"
