Andrea's POV

I exhaled when I finally pulled my not-so-heavy comforter from my bed. I'm cleaning my room since it's already end of the month. I get a new one in my cabinet as I put the one that I'm holding in the hamper. I get my pillows and was about to place the new comforter on my bed when my gaze landed at Elly.

"Ate, what do you think should be her name?"Fate

She smiled at me as she asked me that.

"It's not her, it's him, because he's a boy."ako

I explained that made her frown.

"It's a girl because she has a ribbon!"Fate

I exhaled and get my teddybear.

"It's a boy because his tie color is blue, and he has a ribbon to look like a decent bear, that's what you called bowtie."ako

"Bowtie? Hmm? I don't care! She's still a girl!"Fate

I exhaled and roll my eyes since she didn't get my point.

"It's a boy and his name is Elly."ako

"I thought it's a boy? So, why Elly? You're really confusing, Ate! That name is for a girl only!"Fate

I rolled my eyes again, she might take a long time to understand this.

"You can also name Elly for a boy."ako

"Psh! That's for a girl only, Ate. I saw it on cartoon!"Fate

"For a boy also."ako

"Girl only."Fate

"Boy also."ako

"No! Girl!"Fate

"Boy!"ako

And now we are fighting over the gender of this toy.

"Girl!"Fate

"Boy nga."ako

"Girl."Fate

"Boy."ako

She got teary-eyed that made me nervous.

"That's a girl! Huhu! Mommy!!!"Fate

My eyes widened when she shouted.

"Don't cry na! I'm sorry!"ako

I apologize and wipe her tears. It's official, she's really a pabebe one! But I do love my little sister so much.

"Huhu!"Fate

My Mom came with a worried look especially when she saw Fate crying.

"Andrea, what did you do to your sister?"Lea

I stood up as she carried Fate.

"She said my toy is a girl so I said it's not because Elly is a boy until she cried."ako

My Mom sigh and look at Fate. I sigh and look down.

"I'm sorry."ako

"No. You don't have to say sorry, sweetheart. It's not your fault."Lea

I smile when I heard that.

"Mommy kasi she said it's a boy but its name is Elly. Huhu! That's only for a girl Mommy, right???"Fate

"Shh, don't cry na."Lea

She wipes her tears and then sit on a floral picnic blanket where we were playing. My mom prepared this and we're at the garden.
