We can all see that the Vice President of the Republic of the Philippines, Maria Leonor Gerona Robredo is already contented and happy with her 3 daughters, Aika, Tricia and Jillian but little did we know that a piece of her heart is missing.
One pie...
For the whole week, Aika, Tricia and Leni will be out campaigning.
Leni started her week with a press conference in Bulacan and spent the rest of the week campaigning in Mindanao. She will be back in Manila on Saturday in time for the COMELEC Presidential Debates. Despite of her tight schedules in campaign and sorties, Leni still manages to attend debates, interviews and press conferences if she is invited. She gives everyone a chance to be graced by her presence.
Jorge woke up to a sunny morning at their condo in Quezon City. It was already 7 in the morning. She went to take a bath and went to the living room.
"Magandang umaga po, ma'am." their house helper greeted her
"Good morning po!" she cheerfully replied
"Kain ka na." she told Jorge
"Salamat po. Kain po tayo." Jorge thanked her and invited her to eat which she refused since she was done already
10 minutes before 8 in the morning, Jorge set up her laptop to prepare for her online class. She did not resign from work yet but she applied for immediate leave of absence and stated that it was for medical reasons so she was able to get a 15 day unpaid leave from her company.
She left her phone at the room so that there will no distraction while she is in class. After her class, she went inside her room to check if her mom already sent a message. She was not disappointed since she received a message from Leni and from an unregistered number. She first opened the message that was from her mom.

"I wish I was there too, ma." she thought to herself
She responded to Leni's message and opened the message from an unregistered number.

Upon reading the message, she doesn't need to ask who the sender is. She immediately responded to the message that was sent by Anje, Sen. Risa's adopted child.

The two went on to exchange messages and they did not notice it was already noon time. They bid each other goodbye and a few moments later, Jorge received a call from Leni.
"Hello ma." Jorge greeted her
"Hello anak. Kumusta ka? Nakakain ka na ba?" Leni asked
"Maayos naman po ako dito at kakain palang po ako. Kayo po, kumusta?" she answered and asked Leni how she is
"Okay din naman. Ang saya namin dito. Sana nandito ka." Leni answered
"That's good to hear ma. I hope that I am there too but it's okay, I'm not an official Robredo yet." she answered
She was distracted when their house helper came in with an envelope.
"Ma'am, galing po sa St. Luke's." the house helper said and handed the envelope to her
"Salamat po." she answered and went back to talk to Leni
"What was it, nak?" Leni asked
"It's the DNA test result from St. Luke's." she replied
"Open it." Leni said
When Jorge heard what Leni said, she became so excited and was tempted to open the envelope but then she realizes something.
If the result is positive, there is no one to share her joy with and if the result is negative, there is no one that she can lean on.
"Jorge, are you okay?" Leni asked her
"I'm okay ma." she answered
"Have you opened it already? What's the result?" Leni asked
"I haven't opened it yet. Kinakabahan po ako saka sa tingin ko po mas maigi na kayo ang unang makakakita ng resulta." she answered
Leni realized that Jorge was right. It would be a good thing if she will be the one to see it first and it would be best if they are complete.
"Okay. I get it. I'll tell my secretary to book you a flight to Zamboanga tomorrow just in time for you to catch the rally." Leni said
"Sigurado po kayo, ma?" Jorge asked
"Yes. I am sure. Pack your things and be ready for your Zamboanga trip. Sasama ka sa Ate Tricia at Ate Aika mo together with Gaile, Natalia and Alonso." Leni said
"Okay ma. Sure po. Thank you." she said
"May gusto ka pa bang sabihin?" Leni asked
"Yes ma. Anje is asking me if we can go out together. Can we go out this afternoon or tonight?" Jorge asking for Leni's permission
"Sure basta keep me and Ate Aika update ha?" Leni said
"Sure ma. Thank you." she answered
"Okay. Bye anak. Ingat mamaya. Love you." Leni said
"Love you too, ma! Bye." Jorge answered and ended the call
Jorge immediately called Anje after calling her mom and Anje picked up the phone after 5 rings.
"Hello. Oh, nagpaalam ka na ba kay Malens?" Anje asked
"Hello Anje. Oo nagpaalam nako and we can go this afternoon." Jorge answered
"What? As in agad-agad?"Anje exclaimed
"Hindi naman agad-agad. Mga 3 PM siguro kasi bibiyahe pa tayo." Jorge said
"Saan mo ba gustong pumunta?" Anje asked
"Sa Intramuros. Dream ko talagang pumunta doon eversince bata pa ako. Ang ganda doon pag gabi diba? Doon tayo mag-dinner." Jorge said
"Sige, sige. Tatawagan ko lang si mama ha para makasiguro." Anje said
"Teka. Teka. Bakit ba kasi ngayon agad? Diba Friday pa ang plano natin?" Anje said
"Oo. Alam ko kaso aalis nako bukas." Jorge said
"Saan naman ang punta mo?" Anje asked
"Sa Zamboanga. Sasama ako kila ate Aiks at ate Patty. Pinapasunod ako ni mama eh." Jorge told Anje
"Ayy sana all. Kami kasi hindi pa naisasama ni mama sa mga rally eh. Sa Pasiglaban pa kami sasama." Anje said
"Kitakits tayo ulit sa Pasiglaban. For now, tawagan mo muna si Mama Risa kasi magla-lunch lang ako." Jorge said
The call ended and Jorge went on to eat her lunch.
Jorge is eating lunch alone at the condo since her elder sisters are working and in other days, campaigning for their mom.
After Jorge had her lunch, she received yet another call from Anje confirming their girl's day out this afternoon.
