family. ”

Anthon stood up and hugged him back whilebreaking into a sob. Kuya Nap, followed before he ended back to Mr. Wayne.

”Dad... ”

”Son.. ”

When Anthon released Mr. Wayne,he saw Jia in her seat,stiffling with her tears. These men were so mean to crush her emotion this way!

”Are you not going to welcome me,sister - in - law? ” He said with a big grin.

Jia rushed forward to him as she cried. She looked up at him and he looked back at her tenderly. Then,she threw her arms around him and leaned her head in his chest.

After a while,Anthon thought of something.

”Jia. ”

.

Jia, then,released herself from him and looked up.

”Am I now your big brother who will beat you up if I I'd found out in the future that you will be flying with a mountain bike.”

Jia snorted. ”I'm taking back my words! I won't accept a coward brother,right Kuya Nap? ” She turned towards him who was now laughing at her statement.

”My goodness! ” He exclaimed.

Then,her eyes flickered when she recalled something.

”Ton,can you still imagine the height of the slope we were looking down there in Jian's Garden? ”

Anthon knitted his brows. What could she be imagining this time?She would jump over there with her bike?

”Koko and I used to ride in coconut sheaths or coconut stalks during summer then we would compete who between us could slide down faster towards the foot of the hill. ”

Jia looked at Mr. Wayne who got amused in their argument.

”Can you imagine that, dad? ” Her eyes lit up as she recalled it.

Mr. Wayne nodded.

”Then we would climb up into the mounds. Once we're at the top of one mound,we would thenhold on to the coconut leaves then swing ourselves towards other mounds. That was really fun! ”

Mr. Wayne laughed. ”I also used to play that way withsome kids in our neighborhood. ”

”That must be more fun,I guess but I had only Koko as my playmate.”

Then she went on.

”When we used to get fodders over the neighboring hills,we wouldn'tclimb up through it's path. We would rappel ourselves up by holding onto the vines. ”

Anthon shook his head, while Jim who was holding her,got also amused with her stories.

” I can never imagine how you do that when you move and walk about so gracefully like a model on a runway. Only to know that if a kilo of mongo seeds will be thrown towards you,you will not be hit. ” Anthon just stated an amazing fact while he imitated how she walked.

Everyone laughed.
