Chapter 8
Araw ng Linggo. Ito ang araw na magiging daan at magiging simula ng pagsa-sama ng ating dalawang bida bilang... Mag-amo? Aso't-Pusa ika mo!
...
"Tapos Kuya Jamie, tawagan mo lang ako kahit ano ang mangyari ah. Dapat sagutin mo din ang mga tawag ko. Baka kasi pag nag-tantrums ang mga bata eh baka ma-torete ang utak mo. Two weeks ka pa lang nila kilala, maaaring naka-sanayan na nila ang presence mo pero hindi ko alam kung kailan nila kayo ni Kuya Tred, pagti-tripan. At yung mga sando ni Jyv, nasa pinaka-taas na draw—..."
"Hey! Relax, bunso. Alam ko na po ang gagawin... Putol ni Jamie sa sinasabi ni Syj. ... Now go, at baka ma-late ka pa." Dugtong pa nya at tinulak sa loob ng elevator.
"Bye na! Love you mga Kuya! Pasalubungan kita mamaya!" Paalam ni Syj, bago mag sara ang elevator. Sya namang paalam ng isa at nag flying kiss pa.
Pag-baba nya ay nagpaalam din sya sa iba. At nang tuluyan ng itong maka-alis...
"Nyle, assure your men to guard her." Naniniguradong pakiusap ni Makung.
"They are one of our high-class body guards. Need not to worry for her safety." Balik naman ng isa.
"Where is she going anyway?" Tanong ni Cyrus.
"Launch meeting with her Lolo Pogi, daw? She said it's about her new work. Well for me that would be great. I don't want her to have as many as her part time jobs now. Para syang bolateng inasinan, back and forth. I don't even know how she can still managed her time for her works and for her kids and even for us? But—well... she did it. She gave time to have bonds with her kids. She's brilliant, isn't she?" Si Makung ulit at sumang-ayon ang iba.
"Such a selfless lovely girl." Sabi pa ni Kent.
"Strong but so fragile inside." Si Dustine.
"And sometimes it's so unfair because we felt like we're not needed. Like we're just a display, for she's a very independent woman." Salita naman ni Ghid at nai-iling pa.
"And the only woman who can knocked us down but for our own good. Smart mouthed woman saying nothing but only good things for us. She's that!" Si Nyle, ulit.
"A Baby Sister, Best girl-friend, greatest mother, loving daughter of her parents... Siya 'yun lahat!" Dugtong pa ni Makung.
