Alyssa opens the door of her car and let Abigail in "Dont move an inch, I'll be back"
But before aly could move, Aby grips Aly's arm "Dont worry, this will be fast" then aly closed the door.
She dialed Gretchen's number and called her "Hey, where are you?"
"At the office, gumagawa pa kami ng gameplan for Inno and he's here btw" Hooh. Buti nlang di nila yun nakita Aly thought to herself
"Okay. That's all, I'll see you tonight"
"Okay, see you" Aly ended the call and went inside the car.
"Who was that?" Aby asked.
"Its gretchen, I just called her to check things" Aly while putting seatbelt on aby.
"Not that, the one who slapped you"
"Who slapped me?"
"Oh come on ate! I'm blind not deaf! That slap must've hurt you so much!" Aby while caresing her ate aly's cheek.
"I'm okay baby girl" then kissed aby's forehead "I'll take you home"
"Agad agad? Ang layo layo ng batangas tapos babalik agad ako dun?" Aby with hand gestures.
"Abigail please understand. Marami pa akong gagawin"
"Yeah yeah. Para nmang mananalo ako sayo. Parang mas mahal mo pa nga yang trabaho mo kesa sakin eh"
"Sige na sige na. Sa bahay ko muna ikaw matutulog ngayung gabi. Pero bukas umuwi ka na agad okay?"

Thirty minutes later, they arrived at the ValCorp Tower. Employees and Staff greeted them with a smile. They were also talking about the girl whom Alyssa brought with her. New employees and staff didn't know that she is Alyssa's little sister.
Abigail Valdez, seventeen years old. She was born in California. Their mother died after giving birth to Aby. Aby was born with sight but lost it at the age of 10 because of congenital eye deffects. After this incident, Alyssa was very protective of her. With the absence of their father, Aly took full responsibility of her little sister.
"I can hear them talking about me" Aby whispered to Aly.
"They do not know who you are and this is the first time they saw me with someone other than my friends" Aly explained while walking across the lobby hand in hand.
"Oh. Ehdi ngayun lang pala sila nakakita ng maganda dito sa tower eh" Aly giggled "Whats funny? Am I not pretty?" Aby while pouting.
"You're not pretty" Aly while holding her laugh and entered the elevator.
"What?! But the last time I checked the mirror I was very pretty. White pinkish skin, grey eye color, no wrinkles nor freckles" Aby paused for a moment then slides her hands from her waist down "And right proportions of the body"
"And when was the last time you checked the mirror?" Aly sarcastically asks.
"Seven years ago! Urgh! I hate you! I hate you!" Aby while punching Aly "Maybe the reason you dont spend time with me is because I'm already ugly! I hate you!"
"Ahahaha! Ouch! Tama na Aby" Aly holds the two hands of Aby "You're not pretty cause your beautiful" then Aly saw Aby blush.
"Malapit ka na mag legal age so di ka na pretty, beautiful ka na" Aly hugs Aby "Pang bata lang ang pretty, ibig sabihin nun matanda ka na!" then Aly laughed hard.
Aby punched her sister and this time stronger "Aw! Ouch! Ahaha! Aby! Masakit na ha! Ahaha!"
The elevator opens and Gretch was there "Oh, looks like both of you are enjoying" then entered the elevator "nakalimutan mong iprivate dude" Gretchen was refering to the elevator.
"Ate gretch? OMG! Is that you?" Aby while jumping up and down.
"Yes its me baby girl" Gretch hugs aby tight "I miss you so much baby"
"Aaaw. Buti ka pa ate you miss me, ate Aly doesnt seem to miss me po eh" while pouting "She's bullying me"
"Ahaha! Aly is just a natural bully baby and thats how she shows her love to the people around her" Gretch while patting Aby's head.
"Then she's bullying you too ate gretch?"
"Yup. Me, Kim, Marge Vic and Mika"
"Ate Aly sure have lots of love to give huh"
"Of course baby" Aly holds Aby's hand "Specially to you" then kisses her forehead.
Gretch is smiling to what she is witnessing right now. A vulnerable Alyssa to her little sister. An unconditional love.
--------------------
When they got out of the elevator, they saw Vic whose beem checking the office. So Aly asks.
"Oh Vic, what are you doing outside my office?"
"Style mo bulok Victonara" Gretch grinned "Hi shiela!" she shouted to Aly's secretary whose been sitting at her table outside Aly's office.
Shiela was about to stand because she saw her boss and was about to greet her but Aly instructed her not to bother. Vic's face was relaxed after.
"Aaaw. May ibang crush na pala ang crush ko" Aby trying to steal the attention.
"Abigail! You're here!" Vic runs toward Aby and gave her a very tight hug "Dont worry, Ikaw nman ang forever crush ko eh" while holding two cheeks of aby.
"Thats good to know. Wheres ate Mika, ate Marge and ate Kim?"
"I'll call them all later! Magpaparty tayo!" Gretchen celebrated inside the elevator after they entered.
"I'll cook! So sa crib nlang tayo kita lahat ha! I'll buy the ingredients na! Bye" Vic excitingly said before the elevator doors closed.
"Wait. Vic wait!" Aly wasnt able to stop Vic "Hindi pa nga kayo nagpapaalam sa may ari eh" then scratches her head.
"No need for permissions ate, were a family right?" Aby while giving an innocent look.
Gretchen just shook her head and smiled.
"We are baby. We are" Aly said.
