"Ah walang ipin!" pangungutya ng bata kay Feli. She's just 5 years old but then the kids will bully her because she's toothless.

Tanging pag iyak lang ang narinig ng mga bata kay Feli. "Stop bullying her or i'll punch you!" asik ng isang batang lalaki.

Nagsitakbuhan ang mga bata habang inaalo ng lalaki si Feli. "Thank you po-"

"Wipe your tears you look pathetic"

"They bullied me kase!"

"You should have fight back hindi lang iiyak iyak ka diyan"

Tumayo si Feli nakita niyang umalis ang batang lalaki at sinundan niya iyon.

"Stop following me, you're so annoying"

"You saved me, you're my superhero"

"Tch quit pouting!"

"Okay po"

Patuloy niyang sinundan ang batang lalaki hanggang sa nakarinig sila ng bell. Hudyat ito na paparating na ang nagtitinda ng ice cream.

"Ice cwem! Ice cwem!"

"Tch bulol"

"Why are you looking at me?"

"I want ice cwem"

"And so?"
