[Yvonne's POV]

The feeling when everyone is looking at you teasingly. When everyone is having fun, no less at your expense?

It's like a pinata, where every one was having fun on hitting the thing, trying to break it.

And, at the moment, my whole family is seriously ditching me over this all-so-lovely prick beside me.

And, he laughed at every words thrown at me teasingly, like it was the funniest thing in the world.

God, give me more patience, because I'm about to kill someone!

Mom is wiping her eyes with so much laughters. Grandpa was on again acting as a clown as he is always be.

Demetrio was throwing some in, once in a while, making my whole family loved him the more. He looks so comfortable with them. He doesn't look like the rude CEO, every magazine often dubbed him.

His at ease feelings with my family made me fall for him more.

"I remember Yvonne, when she was just 4 and was the daddy's girl. Wherever daddy's is, is where she is. So when daddy had to go peed she has to be there. That on, when she goes pee, she always stands because that's how her daddy peed, I thought it was the cutest thing ever." my mom chuckled.

"MOM!" I shrieked glaring at my mother. I could feel my cheeks burning with embarrassment.

Mom just shrugged and Demetrio looked at me with fondness, stifling her laughters.

I rolled my eyes in exasperation.

After our dinner, Demetrio, mom and my grandparents headed to the living room. I and my sister left to clean the table and the dishes.

I was standing beside the sink, washing the plates with soap and rinsing them, while my sister was drying them with kitchen towel.

We could hear my mom, Demetrio and my grandparent's laughters. Demetrio's laughters is very distinctive. It's like a roaring of thunder. Very rich and velvety.

"Back to earth, Yvonne!" Ella snaps her fingers right on my face, with her puckered forehead.

"Care to share your thoughts, sissy?" she teased with her eyes shining with mirth.

"There's nothing to share!" I snapped, shoving her another clean wet plate. She took it and dried it with the towel.

"You are one lucky vixen, you know?" Ella remarked thrusting her eyebrows up, teasingly. Just igniting my already heated annoyance.

"Shut up! And, don't you have studying to do for your next exam?" I retorted, in my not-so-amused tone.

She just grimaced and snatch the clean glass I just rinse and dried it.

"My dear sister, you're life was so dull. Spice it up, sissy!" she said sarcastically. " And, there's a spicy, so HOT-Demetrio just right the other room.." she added, smiling mischievously. Her eyes flickered with mischief. "Isn't he HOT?" she gushed, clutching the dried plate on her chest dreamily.

I spank her head lightly with my hand. "Stop dreaming. And, you better get your eyes check. He's not hot. People thinks he's hot because he's rich." I frowned, looking at her askance.

"Are you for real?" she exclaimed rolling her eyes. "Since when did you became the ice queen?" she added raising her eyebrow.

"You're not focusing on dating, right? I hope you're attention is all on your study, not with some boys!" I scowled at her.
