What are you now huh? "Sheila is my real girlfriend. She is the Alyana I told you about last night." Stephen informed you directly! What occurred last night, though? Did they converse yesterday evening?
My eyes widened at what he continued, "And Alyana is my sister, Sheila is my stepsister, she is Mommy's daughter."
Sibling? Sh*t! I made out with his stepsister, I'm crazy! Both she and I immediately released our grip on her hair.
We both styled our hair. "Excuse me, sir, did someone say there was trouble here?"
The woman just nodded and walked out, saying, "Ah, no miss, they were just kidding."
I welcomed him hesitantly and even extended my right hand to briefly wave at him.
I didn't expect him to smile at me after what happened when I said, "Hello."
I wonder why his voice softened abruptly and he's now grinning at me, saying, "You didn't tell me right away, Brother Stephen, that she was Alyana."
I bit my nails and knelt down, "S-sorry for what I did."
It's nice to meet you, Alyana. "No! I should be the one to apologize because I was the first to pull your hair. I'm sorry I didn't know, I thought you were one of those girls who would be like a leech if you got close to my Brother Stephen." I hesitantly reached for her palm when she extended it to me.
Nice to meet you, as well.
Pointing at the diner, "Brother Stephen, let's discuss first, then let's eat." I'll just tell my friends to head home first, I guess.
Sheila quickly put her hand around my arm, as if we were extremely near, and I tensed up.
What is happening? Because of that earlier and the fact that he still appeared unpleasant, I assumed he no longer liked me, but I believe that he does now—if you get to know him, that is.
_
I was amazed by what he said as he spoke while eating, "Oh, I remember mum told me that you are getting married next-next month." I don't believe Stephen's mother will be honest with me about her intentions to get married.
Oh my, from what I can see, Stephen's mother doesn't joke around; it looks like whatever she says is genuine and not a joke.
In response to his brother's inquiry, he joked, "Did mama tell you that?"
He looked at me simultaneously and said, "Yeah, he came to your place yesterday, and when he got home, he summoned us all because he said he had something important to announce, and that is, you are getting married to a girl named Alyana."
He glanced at Stephen and I furiously, as though he was still thrilled while staring at us, "We couldn't believe it when mommy claimed that she was in love with Alyana."
He questioned me abruptly, "Alyana, how many more children do you have?" I sucked down the rice in my lips before responding.
I am a single child.
I don't get everything I want, so I know my limits. "Ohh, maybe you're luckier, are you spoiled by your mom and dad huh? This is Kuya Stephen because he's spoiled."
Stephen remarked, "I'll pay for what we ate first." I was ready to respond when Sheila abruptly grabbed my shoulder.
I began to feel uneasy and thought, "What the heck, Alyana, calm down." Sheila might not be biting.
I blinked because I didn't know what to say. "What kind of clothes do you like? Even if the clothes are nice, I won't buy them if the price is low, I prefer the ones I love."
"I nearly exclusively purchased my clothing in the UK."
What brand is it?
I only purchase my clothing in the UK, which costs 10 or 50 pesos per item as long as I don't purchase more than 100.
It's like laughing at this promise, "Huh? You speak so fast, I didn't comprehend anything you said, sister."
He said with a sneer and a pout, "But you know your hair is gorgeous, I hope mine is the same." Even if her hair is a little curly, she is still stunning; in fact, it enhances her beauty.
He attempted a smile while biting his lip, saying, "It looks well on you too. I used to be brave, but now I'm cowardly and embarrassed to talk to him because he's so friendly and seems at ease.
She's gorgeous, but how much is that t-shirt?
I'm wearing the clothing my dad got me; I was in high school but I still have them, and it still fits; it used to be a little loose but now it suits me. "Is that worth five thousand or ten thousand?"
My response was, "It's only one hundred."
I almost fell out of my chair when I heard the question, "One hundred thousand?" It sounded joyful.
I said, "One hundred pesos."
I still have my arms crossed as I answer the query, "A-Ahh, one hundred pesos? Just wondering, don't you come from an affluent family?" It is a serious one to me.
If I tell him that he is correct, it appears that he won't like me any longer, but I won't tell a falsehood since, after all, what can I do? Being poor isn't horrible, it's not a crime, and it shouldn't be something to be embarrassed of, so I should be proud of it. Alyana, there is nothing humiliating about being poor; you lived despite it.
We were silent for a moment here before he finally said, "Yes, no, I'm simply poor and...I'm proud of it."
Alyana, what are you doing? I don't mind if you're difficult; earlier, I was just joking around to see if you could keep up with me or pretend to be wealthy, etc.
You know the real artists are my friends. Hayst! I don't even know why I became friends with them, they are plastic. How old are you, Alyana? "Then I'm not artistic, mommy taught us not to be artistic.
It turns out that he speaks a lot, has a little of his mother's kindness, and talks a lot. Hey, Alyana, don't pass judgment hastily, especially if you don't know the subject of your judgment well.
"I'm 25, you?"
He grasped my hand and said, "Ahh, I'm 21. Heheh, I assumed I was older than you since you have a baby face and I have a mature face. Can I call you sister?"
"Please?"
I grinned at him, "Sure, you don't need to beg."
He sat in the chair and asked suspiciously, "What's happening?"
I will do your makeup on the day of your wedding, Sister Alyana huh! I'm good at makeup. You know Kuya Stephen, I really like Alyana for you, you two are perfect." His speech.
It's up to you, I guess.
Sheila and I were the only ones conversing, so this Stephen seemed out of place as Sheila and I continued our conversation.
Okay, I'm leaving; mama texted my brother to let him know that I should first keep a check on Saturn at the hospital.
Sheila finally walked away, leaving Stephen and I to finish our clothing shopping before heading home. "Okay, okay, please say hello to him and tell him that I will visit him as well."
He wrapped his arm around me and added, "Don't be frightened when you meet my brothers, they are all kind once you get to know them. Even though Stephen is struggling to handle the paper bags he is carrying at this point, he actually saved one hand to help me inside the house.
Naturally, I was concerned that Sheila might not want me for you as a result of that. But maybe Sheila didn't have plastic surgery on me, right?
I continued to frown after hearing him say, "Don't frown Alyana, I'm really going to kiss you," and he laughed.
He would have brought his face closer to me in case someone suddenly opened his mouth and said, "You truly want to kiss me."
There's simply Manang Daley, saying, "Ehem, that's later."
Stephen said naively, "Manang Daley, we're not doing anything wrong.
We giggled when someone said, "Hmm, isn't there?
Stephen and I returned to eating before going into the room. Since I have class tomorrow, I should get a head start on bedtime.
1 week later
Manang Daley said to Stephen, "Oh, why don't you seem like you haven't slept?" I looked away when we exchanged glances because I was alone myself.
Stephen seems to have been dry for a while because he didn't let me sleep last night. But I'm glad we did it because we both love each other and not just because we wanted to. I'm still quite sleepy, but my eyes are starting to get watery.
Oh, eat something and then go back to bed because I personally feel bad for both of your eyes.
It is not obvious that "Stephen is Manang Daley who kept me up."
"What??"
I assured him, "I didn't say that your cooking is great.
Stephen chuckled feebly at what was said, "Sleep you two after this yeah, just sleep Stephen don't do anything."
During the course of the lunch, he questioned me, "By the way, when is your graduation Alyana?"
I said, "First week of April, guy."
It will be the next week. Days pass by so rapidly that I feel like Stephen and I only just became friends after I graduated when I moved in. When I graduate, I can work effectively. I hope someone will hire me because of the course I took in administration and business management.
Just be optimistic, Alyana! How about if I already have a job? When I suddenly thought of the wedding, I coughed.
Stephen offered me water right away, and I drank it.
Alyana, what are you doing? Stephen asked. If you're not ready, you can say next year or even tomorrow, so it's just a joke.
It is comparable to the speed of time.
After we had finished eating, I assisted Manang Daley in cleaning up the food while Stephen retired to his room.
Manang stared at me abruptly, saying, "You know, Stephen changed a lot because of you.
It didn't ask, simply nodded.
When Manang Daley abruptly grabbed his head, I frantically asked, "Are you okay?," grabbing both of his shoulders in case he would collapse.
Even though I'm getting older, I'm still powerful; I'm only a little dizzy.
Manang grinned and touched my cheek, "I guess my grandmother and grandfather are still alive, you're just the same age."
"I just want you to know that Stephen is like a woman, it's easy to get hurt by even a single word, cry, but he doesn't show it. alyana ija, I know you're not like the girls out there who only want money for my pet, but I know that in a relationship it's inevitable to argue sometimes, hurt each other. I'm just pleading with you to understand him, look after him, and love him. " Nanny Daley saying. I feel like crying because of what he's saying; it's as if he finally understands what he's telling me.
It smiled and hugged me, saying, "As for you, Manang Daley, if you can speak, it's like you'll depart, you'll even look after Stephen and me, and you'll also be our son soon."
My mother and I sat on the sofa after washing.
How many siblings do you have, Manan Daley?
I was only six years old when we were burned, and as a result, my parents passed away. I'm really thankful because there are kind people who adopted me, and I consider them to be my family. It's just that their only child, Lilly, is very mischievous and always fights with me, but eventually we got along well. This is my story.
When I said, "So far, you two are fine?," it fell silent.
I was a little astonished when Manang answered, "No, they kicked me out of their house on the day of my college graduation."
"Why did they have me evicted?"
They discovered that I had caused a poor man to become pregnant, but I had no regrets about it because I was the only woman he had ever loved.
Manang asked me, "Is it only because Lilly doesn't meet you anymore?" His eyes were clearly sorrowful, and he was sobbing.
"You know, Lilly has had a crush on Gerald, the guy who got me pregnant and the guy I married, for a long time."
"Eh, will her parents evict her if Gerald loved her and got her pregnant?" she asked.
Perhaps the person who adopted me was compassionate, but all it takes is one slip-up or one bad choice to make you furious.
I uttered it haltingly, but Manang Daley appears to have heard me: "Can't Lilly just forget all that, right? Past is past."
Now that I see his parents in him, I assume he inherited the habits from his parents. "Ija, he doesn't forget because he's so proud, non. He doesn't apologize even though he knows he's wrong because he wants him to always be right and obeyed."
I feel bad for Manang Don since the family that was once thought to be his home suddenly kicked him leave. Maybe loving a poor person isn't so horrible after all. Why are the impoverished so bad? We are all the same individuals living in this world, rich or poor, as it happens.
"Wait a minute, didn't Madam Nessy state that you are her mother's sister?" So, is that Lilly, the mother of Madam Nessy, Manang Daley's sister? Am I right?
Yes, you're right; nevertheless, Daley isn't really his son, right?
He's adopted, huh?
"I can see myself in him since I kicked him out, but Lilly's son is luckier for him because he's kind; I suppose he got that from his father."
Manang beckoned to me and said, "Come closer and I'll tell you a secret."
I nodded when she asked if I knew Jonas, Daley's husband.
When Lilly learned that Daley wasn't his real father, she ejected him from the house and it was only a few weeks later that she met Jonas. "Nash is not his real son," Lilly said.
Sir Jonas agreed to take the infant that the woman was bringing. Even though Nash isn't his biological child, I can tell when I'm there that he loves him just as much as if he were.
I noticed a photo of Madame in her chamber with a girl named Lili, who had bangs and curly hair.
I heard Manang say, "Liliana," but I was looking at Stephen at the time.
I've been sitting in the waiting area for a while, Alyana.
I questioned, "Huh? Why?"
Right, we can both sleep?
I received a forehead slap. I questioned why he was so irate.
Before eventually getting up, I grinned at Manang and said, "Oh he's OK, go with Stephen." Stephen then seized my hand and dragged me into the room.
He immediately kissed me and said, "Damn my hand hurts, ah—hmm." He then removed his shirt.
I thought we were going to bed, huh? "Wait, what?
He grinned mischievously and started to take off everything he was wearing, saying, "We can sleep...after this."
He pulled me to the bed without warning, and I cried, "I don't want to, I'm tired-- hey what!?" He grabbed both of my shoulders and restrained me when I attempted to stand up.
"Are you interested or not?"
My response was merely "Maybe." As soon as he put his mouth near my ear, my hair began to stand up.
I was engulfed one by one by his enticing calling of my name, "Alyana, Alyana."
You really want me to give in, aren't you? Prepare for me right away.
I gave him a firm push before instantly laying on top of him. I leaned down and licked his ear with my tongue. I growled in his ear, "Ohhh, Stephen... Ahh Stephen."
I giggled at what he said, "I-I'm becoming harder because of what you're doing Alyana." It goes on, "Give it to me first!"
"Give what? I don't understand you?" I'm sorry.
"Alyana..." I feel her two hands slowly crawling on my thighs. I brought my face closer to his face and kissed him smack but he suddenly grabbed my cheek and quickly grabbed my kiss.
