Sicheng took Aiya with him on the way to his family's country club the next day. They'll be staying there for four days, spending the long weekend. Aiya just couldn't say no dahil si Sicheng na mismo ang nag-invite sa kanya at nasabi na ito sa mom ni Sicheng.
"We have 50 minutes ride Aiya. Matulog ka na muna. I'll just wake you up once we're there." Sicheng informs her habang nagmamaneho siya.
"Hmmm. Okay." humikab si Aiya.
"That position might be uncomfortable for you. You can lean on my shoulders if you want." Sicheng offers. Magkatabi lang yung upuan nila so it's easier for Aiya to lean her head over Sicheng's shoulder.
It took them one hour bago sila makarating sa mismong country club na pagmamay-ari ng dad ni Sicheng.
"We're here..." Sicheng gently caressed Aiya's face, waking her up.
"Mhmm..." Aiya whimpers. It took her time to blink her eyes a multiple times.
"Come on..." Sicheng smiled. "Ako na magdadala ng gamit mo."
"Wow... I can't believe your family owned this." Aiya gasped, amazed by how huge the country club is.
"Yes, dad owns this..." Tumango si Sicheng.
They're walking with their hands intertwined. Walang balak si Sicheng na bitawan ang kamay ni Aiya dahil kanina pa niya ito hawak.
Then suddenly, Aiya realized one thing after connecting the dots. "Y-you're the son of Architect Dong? Yung nakatanggap ng Pritsker last 2016? Sicheng ang dami mo pang hindi sinasabi sakin ha?" di maitago ni Aiya ang gulat.
"Yes he's my dad, but I want it lowkey. I don't want to brag about dad and his company's achievements." paliwanag ni Sicheng.
"That's so... humble of you. Hindi nga halata sayo that you came from a wealthy family." Aiya says, admiring Sicheng's down to earth personality.
"Well I just want to blend in. Oh wait, malapit na tayo." napansin ni Sicheng na malapit na silang makapasok sa mismong vacation house.
Di pa man sila tuluyang nakapasok, may sumalubong na sa kanilang dalaga. She's taller than Aiya in height, and older than them. She must be Sicheng's sister because of the shared facial features, sa isip ni Aiya.
"Sicheng! I'm glad you made it." salubong ng dalaga sa nakababata niyang kapatid na lalaki. "Oh who's this pretty one? Is she your date during the UA ball? Ipakilala mo naman siya sakin. Ikaw ha? May girlfriend ka pala hindi ka man lang nagsasabi. Isusumbong talaga kita kina dad mamaya."
Sicheng and Aiya could only look at each other as if they cry for help.
"She's not my girlfriend / I'm not his girlfriend!" sabay nilang sabi.
"Wow you guys are so defensive." the girl laughed. "Hi, I'm Shenlin, older sister ni Sicheng."
"Hi, nice to meet you po. I'm Aiya." Aiya offered a handshake and exchange smiles with Sicheng's older sister.
"So, let's go inside. I'm going to introduce you to our parents." hinawakan ni Shenlin ang kamay ni Aiya, dragging her inside the vacation house.
