for a little while. (said yawning)

inspiration kuya Will. And it's such a dream come true to be here. Your so gwapo kuya Will. (Kisses him)

like I'm cheating my husband with that shameful dream. (Sigh)

Sibling 2: Is this the house you and my brother are living?! Yuck! (said in a disgust tone)
Sibling 1: Yeah. Just look at this house, it's so small, it doesn't have any aircon, and the floor is not even
furnished. And what are these? (pointed at the food) Is this the food your serve for my brother. IT'S
CHEAP!
Sibling 2: I didn't know why my brother chose you as his wife. I mean look at you, (looks Nenita from
head to toe) you look like garbage. Yuck!
Sibling 1: Or in other words, sweetie. You have no match to all the girls that my brother have been with.

******
Nenita was cleaning inside her house, when she heard a familiar voice singing outside of her house. She
followed the voice and it was her husband who was singing a Spanish song. Even though she didn't
recognize any of the lyrics, she still enjoyed it, for it is the first time since a very long time since she last
heard her husband sing. Swaying her hips as she enjoyed the song.
