"Where are we going, Kuya Tanner?" Tanong ni Kisses sa pinsang nagmamaneho ng sasakyan.
"We are going to Cora's condo to pick her and Edward." Sagot ni Tanner na nakatutok sa daan ang tingin.
"Really? Then after that saan na tayo pupunta?" Tanong uli ni Kisses.
"You will see, baby girl. Im sure you're going to enjoy this day." Nangingiting sagot ni Tanner.
"Sigurado kang ako ang mag-eenjoy, Kuya? O, ikaw dahil makakasama mo si Ate Cora?" Nanunuksong sabi ni Kisses.
"Dont start with me, baby girl. I know that Edward is now courting you." Tanner.
"Kuya naman eh! Pati ba naman ikaw aasarin ako?" Kisses.
"Haha! Dont worry baby girl. I like Edward for you." Nakangiting saglit na tinignan ni Tanner si Kisses na nagbablush na.
"Ewan ko sayo, Kuya Tanner! Isusumbong kita kay Ate Cora mamaya kala mo dyan." Nakapout na humalukipkip si Kisses saka sumandal sa sandalan ng kotse.
"Forsure she like you also for her cousin." Tanner.
"Kuya Tanner naman eh! Enough na." Kisses said sabay takip sa namumulang mukha. Tinawanan nalang sya ng pinsan sa inakto nya.
Nang marating nila ang building ng condo ni Cora ay naghihintay na ito at si Edward sa may entrance ng building.
"Hi, Kisses!" Abot tenga ang ngiting bati ni Edward sa dalaga.
"H-Hi, Edward." Alanganin ang ngiting ganting bati ni Kisses sa binata. Dahil ramdam nya ang nanunuksong tingin ng Kuya Tanner nya.
"Hello there baby girl!" Bati naman ni Cora sabay halik sa pisngi ng dalaga.
"Hi, Ate Cora!" Nakangiting bati din ni Kisses dito.
"Baby girl, will you seat on the back seat with Edward?" Tanner.
"Ha? Bakit mo pa papalipatin si Kisses?" Cora.
"Ofcourse he wants you to sit beside him." Nakangising sabi ni Edward.
"I get it. Okay, Ate Cora ikaw nalang dito. Ako sa back seat." Nakangiting bumaba ng kotse si Kisses saka lumipat sa back seat.
"Anong ginagawa nyo?" Cora asked na nakataas ang isang kilay.
"Hop in. We have to go." Tanner.
"Fine." Cora rolled her eyes saka sumakay sa kotse.
"Looks like your cousin is excited huh." Edward na pumasok na rin sa back seat.
"Oo nga eh." Kisses agreed.
"Dont me Edward. I know your more excited." Tanner.
"Ate Cora!" Napapakamot sa batok na reklamo ni Edward.
"Haha! Your blushing cousin." Cora.
"Really? Edward is blushing? Patingin." Kisses na sinusubukang tignan ang mukha ni Edward na iniiwas naman nito.
"Im not blushing." Deny ni Edward.
"Haha! Sabi mo eh. Let's go." Cora na bumaling na kay Tanner.
"Alright. Here we go!" Ipinausad na ni Tanner ang sasakyan.
At habang nag-uusap ang dalawang nakatatanda sa unahan ng kotse, siyempre may conversation din sa back seat.
"So, how's pancake?" Nakangiting tanong ni Edward kay Kisses.
"She's okay. Isinama ko na sya sa mga collection ko. Thanks again." Kisses.
"Your welcome again." Nakangiti paring sagot ni Edward.
"Who's pancake? Is she a dog?" Cora.
"No, Ate. Pancake is a pink teddy bear. Edward gave her to me yesterday." Kisses.
"Wow! How sweet of you, Couz." Cora.
"You want me to buy you a teddy bear also?" Singit sa usapan ng nagmamanehong si Tanner.
"Tanner! Walang originality? Gagayahin mo pa ang mga bagets." Cora.
"I guess i have to think of other things to buy for you." Tanner.
"Seriously,Tanner? You dont have to buy anything for me." Cora.
"Why not? Im courting you just like Edward to Kisses. That's why i have to give something to you too." Tanner.
"Eeeeee!!!! Nakakakilig pakinggan na nanliligaw si Kuya Tanner sayo Ate Cora." Kinikilig na react ni Kisses.
"How about me? Are you kinikilig because im courting you?" Edward asked to Kisses na ikinablush nito.
"Ahm... Kuya Tanner, where are we going now?" Pag-iiba ni Kisses sa usapan.
"Haha! Kisses is avoiding Edward's question." Cora.
"Ate Cora naman eh." Namumula ang mukhang reklamo ni Kisses.
"Well im courting Cora and Edward is courting Kisses. So, its a double date right?" Tanner.
"Double date?" Sabay na react nina Cora at Kisses.
"Thanks for this idea, Kuya Tanner. I owe you for this one." Edward.
"Just makesure you takecare of our baby girl." Tanner.
"Ofcourse i will. And promise me you wont hurt or make my Ate Cora cry." Edward.
"Seriously? You two are talking like that infront of us?" Nakataas ang kilay at nakapamewang na sabi ni Cora.
"Hay naku, Ate Cora lets just dont mind them nalang." Kisses.
"Yeah right. Where are we na ba?" Cora.
"We are here." Ipinark ni Tanner ang kotse.
"Where are we?" Edward.
"Wow! We are in eco park!" Excited na bumaba ng kotse si Kisses.
Sa isang Eco park sila dinala ni Tanner kung saan may ibat-ibang extreme at adrenaline rush na attraction.
"Wow! I guess this is going to be exciting." Cora na bumaba na rin ng kotse.
"You think so?" Tanner na nasa tabi na ni Cora.
"Yeah. I love adventure." Cora.
"How about you Kisses?" Edward.
"I love nature!" Kisses.
"How about the adventure? Do you like it too?" Edward.
"I dont think so?" Alanganing sagot ni Kisses.
"Haha! Dont worry im just here beside you." Edward.
"Thanks, Edward! You like extreme adventure also?" Tanong ni Kisses sa binata.
"Not really but im not afraid of heights or anything. How about you?" Edward.
"Waaahhh!!!! Kinakabahan na ako." Kisses.
"Haha! Baby girl, i said your going to enjoy this." Tanner.
"Paano Kuya Tanner? Eh, takot nga ako sa heights." Kisses.
"Aw! Kawawa naman si baby girl. Bakit dito mo pa kase kame dinala?" Cora to Tanner.
"Your going to enjoy this. Let's go." Aya ni Tanner sa mga kasama na nauna ng maglakad.
"Well, i kinda excited! You two lets go." Sumunod na rin si Cora kay Tanner.
"Hala! Edward, parang ayoko na yatang sumunod sakanila. Umuwi nalang tayo." Kisses said na napakapit ng mahigpit sa braso ni Edward.
"You have to conquer your fear, Kisses. Dont worry i will never leave you and i will hold your hand no matter what happens." Nakangiting pagpapalakas ng loob ni Edward kay Kisses while holding her hands na nasa braso nya.
"Okay." Tumango nalang ang kinakabahan ng si Kisses na kanina lang ay excited.
A.N: Abangan ang magaganap sa double date nila.
