Jay's POV ✍️
I can't believe this—I'm engaged to Mr. Annoying Giraffe 🦒. He doesn't seem that bad, just a little annoying. Ma and Tita congratulated me 🥂.
"Jay, now you should call us Mom and Dad," Tita asked me ✨.
"Alright, but I will call you Ma and Pa, is it okay?" I asked them 💖.
"We would love that," they said together.
"Ate, what will you call us?" Keiren and Keigan asked me 👦👦.
"Of course, monkeys! 🐒," I teased them.
"Mom, look, Ate is calling us monkeys!" Keiren complained to Ma Serina. She only smiled 😊.
"Keiren, I'll call you Keir, and Keigan, you're Keig. And you both will call me Jay," I said to them.
"That's cool 😎, Jay!" Keigan said and gave me a high-five 🖐️.
"What about me, Ms. Tornado?" Keifer asked me 🌪️.
"I will call you Kwanan," I said smirking 😏.
"Don't you dare call me that!" he said.
"Nope, Kwanan," I said again, teasingly.
"I like the name, Jay!" Keigan said, sticking his tongue out at Keifer 😋. Keifer couldn't do anything, so he just sighed 😮💨.
"Jay, well, you are going to the Philippines. You remember we told you?" Ma asked. I nodded.
"You will be studying in Keifer's school, in his section, and living in Watson Mansion with them," Pa said 🏰.
"School and section is okay. But why Watson Mansion too? I thought I would live with Tita Gemma," I asked Pa.
"Don't you want to live with us, Jay?" Ma Serina asked.
"No, it's not that. I just missed Tita a lot," I said 🥺.
"Don't worry. Every Saturday and Sunday you will be coming to the Fernandes house," Kuya Angelo said, and I nodded.
"When we finish our work here, we will join you," Jane said.
"Will you? I think you will be too busy with Kuya Kyle, Jane!" I said, teasing her.
"Shut up!" she said, flustered 😳.
"Alright, when do we have to leave?" I asked.
"Well, in two hours," Percy said ⏱️.
"WHAT?! I haven't packed my clothes yet!" I shouted 😱.
"Don't worry, I will take care of it," Ma said.
"Fine. Where is Mia?" I asked Ben.
"She was right here, I don't know," he said.
Mia came up and said, "Are you searching for me, babe? 😚"
"Yeah, Mia. Today I'm going to the Philippines and will be studying there now," I said. Her smile dropped ☹️.
"Hey... look at me. Don't make this face. I promise I will call you daily. And Ben is here for you," I said, consoling her 🫂.
"Yeah, Ben is here, but you are my family, Jay," she said softly. "I know. I always will be," I said, hugging her.
"Jay, you sure you can survive Section E? That is the section of troublemakers. And you will be the first girl there," Keifer asked me 😈.
"I'm born ready, Kwanan," I said to him.
"Don't call me that, Jay!" he said, annoyed.
"Fine, I won't in school. But at home, I will," I said.
"Whatever," he said 🙄.
I don't know how the next two hours passed. We were dancing, laughing, and teasing each other 😂.
"Jay, sweetheart! We have to leave now," Ma Serina said. I nodded and went to change my outfit.
I came back to the garden where their jet 🛩️ was parked, wearing my night dress.
"Sugar, are you going to wear this for the flight?" Jane asked me.
"Let her wear what she is comfortable in. It is going to be a long flight," said Pa Keizer.
"Thanks, Pa!" I said and hugged him.
Then I saw Keifer. He was wearing a black oversized t-shirt and matching black pants. Honestly, even in something so simple, he looked incredibly hot. The black fabric made his jawline look even sharper, and his messy hair gave him that 'effortlessly handsome' vibe that was hard to ignore. 🔥🖤
Keifer's POV
Jay is coming to my school, my section, and my home. I don't know why, but I'm excited hearing this. She is still teasing me, but I actually like it. It was time for our departure 🛫.
She came out wearing a long-sleeved, round-neck sweatshirt in pink with a large, fluffy white bunny patch on the front and matching bottoms. She looked incredibly cute—like a soft, pink marshmallow I just wanted to protect. The way the oversized sleeves covered her hands made her look so small and precious; it was a total contrast to her 'Tornado' personality. 🐰💗
We settled into the flight and chit-chatted for a bit. Soon, Jay fell asleep with Keiren and Keigan curled up at her side 💤.
Authors POV
Keizer and Serina walked through the cabin to check on the kids. They stopped, their hearts melting at the sight.
"Look at them, Keizer," Serina whispered, leaning her head on her husband's shoulder
"Jay looks like a protective big sister already. She has this natural warmth that the boys just gravitated toward." 🥺
Keizer smiled, watching how Keiren and Keigan were tucked under Jay's arms, looking completely peaceful. "She's the missing piece of the puzzle, Serina. Our boys have never settled down that fast with anyone. We made the right choice—she isn't just joining our family; she's bringing it closer together." ❤️✨
