"Ha! Nakakainis ka. Ayoko na pag-usapan" She said, and rolled her eyes. 
Buti hindi siya pikon ngayon. 
"Who is the guy I've been seeing on the internet na kasama mo? Nako naman, ang ate ko" I said teasingly. 
"Aba! Fyi I'm not seeing anyone 'no! Aba nakakahiya naman sa mga anak ko kung palitan ko agad yung tatay nila" 
"Why not?" I asked jokingly. 
"Bata ka talaga!" Ate Imee said, and squeezed my cheek. 
"Aray ha!" I exclaimed. "Bakit hindi ka sumama kila Bonget?" I asked. 
"Wala ka kasi kasama" She said. 
"Sus"
"Hindi, maya maya kasi uuwi na mga bata kaya di na ako sumama" 
"Means nagkikita kayo?"
"Nino ba?" 
"Edi ni Kuya" I said, and rolled my eyes. 
"Malamang, Oh eh ano naman?" 
"Wala lang" I said, and put a teasing smile on my face. 
"Will you please stop making that face?" She irritatedly asked. 
I laughed. 
"I'll ask you one serious question" I said, and sat properly. 
"Once he asks for your forgiveness, will you give him a second chance?" I asked. I looked at her to wait for an answer. 
"No" She said straightforwardly. 
"Why not?" I asked. 
"I've done too much, and I've gone through a lot, so I can't imagine myself being in that chapter of my life again. When I married him, I thought he'll be with me until the day I die, but I was wrong" 
"I have kept all of the pain in myself, all of those betrayals, lies, and cheating. Oh, I don't want to comeback" 
"Wow" I said in disbelief. "You knew in the first place that your husband was cheating on you, really?" 
She just faked a smile. 
Oh, I wonder how many times she smiled just so she can hide the pain that she's been hiding all along. 
"I've always questioned myself, Wasn't I enough? Is something wrong with me?" She said, and bowed her head. 
"But I want you to still respect him, you've witnessed how he loved, and cared for me back then. You've witnessed how he worked hard just to make me said yes, and you know that he is a good father" 
"But is not a good husband?" I asked. I moved closer to her, and hugged her. 
"You're more than enough" I said in a low voice. 
"He was once the best husband for me" She said almost whispering. 
"I know, I know" I said. "And he was once the best brother in law to me" I said, smiling. 
"Ayan tuloy nagdadramahan na tayo. At Least now, we're both happy. Lalo na ikaw hm? Lalo ka nang magiging blooming, syempre nandyan na si Greggy. Alam mo na" She uttered, while raising her eyebrow up and down. 
I just laughed. "Never" I uttered. Nagulat naman ako ng manlaki ang mata ni Ate Imee. 
"Anong never? Hindi pwede! Kailangan namin ng isa pang pamangkin!" She said. 
"Atsaka imposible 'no! Ikaw pa?"
"Anong ako pa? Hey! I wasn't that flirty ha!" I said, and rolled my eyes. 
"Asus naman! I heard you did the first move kaya nagkaroon ng Alfonso" She said teasingly.
