In less than two weeks, AJ is finally discharged from the hospital. Tatay Benjo allows Gara and AJ to stay in the Mansion while Lolo, Lola and Tita Jo are in the country.
Gara got surprise at AJ new room in the Mansion. All toys are house in his room together with the life size iron man figurine.
“This is so huge” Gara said “Ang size nito ay combination na ng room ko at room ni AJ” she added
“Do you like it? Dad suggested that you do the design, kaya lang sabi ko surprise ko sa yo at kay AJ. But you can redesign” Andrew said
“Aysus, you just makes it look as a surprise to me but honestly, alam mong hindi ako papayag kaya hindi mo sinabi sa akin” Gara said. Andrew scratches his head at what Gara just uttered. She really knows me too well he says to himself
“Ayaw mo ba?” Andrew nervously asked
“Para kasing ayaw mo na kaming kasama sa room mo” Gara honestly said
“Of course not” Andrew said but Gara gave him a sharp stare “Ok, only AJ, eh kasi naman sa house nyo may sariling room si AJ pero dito sa amin wala. Unfair yun” Andrew defended himself
“Until what time mo gustong paniwalaan ko yang sinasabi mo?” Gara said
“O sige na, syempre i want to spend more time with you alone” Andrew said
“Ginamit mo pa anak mo. Siraulo ka, nakakahiya kay Tito Edward, tapos nandito pa sila Lolo at Lola, pati si Tita Jo nandyan din” Gara said
“No problem, while they are here, AJ will sleep with us kung hindi ka komportable. But once bumalik na sila sa Canada, AJ sleeps in his room with Iron Man, while you sleeps in my room with me” Andrew said while smiling widely.
“Nahanapan mo talaga ng palusot eh” Gara said smiling
“Of course, dream ko to see you everyday when I wakes up in the morning” Andrew said
“Talaga ba? Parang hindi rin naman” Gara objected
“What made you say that?” Andrew surprisely asked
“Joke lang naman, forget that I say that” Gara said “Tara tawagin na natin si AJ. I want to see his reaction dito sa bagong room nya” she said changing the topic.
"Hindi ka galit na pinagawa ko 'to for AJ" Andrew asked
"Hindi naman. Maganda ang room no need to redesign, I'm sure AJ will be delighted" Gara honestly said
As expected, AJ is jumping for joy upon seeing his new room, not because of its huge size but because Iron Man is finally house in his room.
“Yehey, Iron man is in my room now. Thank you Mommy” AJ said and quickly runs to Gara for a hug and a shower Gara with kisses on her cheeks “I love you Mommy, thank you for allowing iron man to be in my room”
“Hala, this room is my idea, how come I did not get a kiss” Andrew said pouting. AJ smiles and gave Andrew a tight hug too
“Thank you Daddy for giving me iron man and this room” AJ said
“You’re welcome buddy” Andrew said as he hugs AJ back
"I want to sleep here tonight Daddy” AJ said which makes Andrew smiles widely while Gara stares at Andrew sharply
“Of course buddy, this room is yours. You may sleep here anytime you like” Andrew said
“No sweetie, you will sleep with us in Daddy’s room” Gara firmly said “I want to see you first thing in the morning tomorrow” she added
“Mommy, if I sleep in Daddy’s room, iron man will be sad because he will be alone here” AJ said.
“Hala pinagpalit ako kay iron man” Gara said
“Wala akong kinalaman dyan” Andrew whispered to Gara.
“I don’t believe you” Gara said and Andrew just laught at her loud
“I have a better idea, why don’t we both sleep here tonight” Gara said
“My bed is too small for the two of us Mommy, just sleep in Daddy’s room he has a huge bed” AJ replied
“I thought you don’t want to sleep alone sweetie” Gara asked
“I am not alone Mommy, iron man will watch over me when I sleeps” AJ replied
“Maniwala kayo sa akin, bukas na bukas din, makikita nyo yang si iron man na lulutang-lutang sa swimming pool” Gara threatens
“Uy, ang aga namang magswimming ni iron man, baka ginawin yan love” Andrew kids
“Ewan ko sa yo” Gara said and walks out of AJ’s room.
Andrew laughs out loud when he followed Gara.
"Natatawa ka pa talaga eh" Gara said
"Hindi ako natatawa. Natutuwa ako. At tuwang tuwa ako" Andrew said
"Obvious naman na tuwang tuwa ka. Ako na lang ang mag sasabi kay Tito Edward" Gara said
"Tell me what?" They heard Daddy Edward asked. Gara's face turned red as she sees Daddy Edward stepped out of the study room with Tita Jo and Tita Stella.
"Tito, pwede po bang dun na lang ako sa isang guest room mag stay? Ayaw po kasi ni AJ na dun ako matulog sa room nya" Gara bravely asked but continue blushing.
"Why? Is there something wrong with Andrew's room?" Daddy Edward said
"Wala naman po" Gara replied
"Wala naman pala eh, better stay in Andrew's room. Also, all rooms are occupied. Stella will be staying here for three days. I'm afraid I don't have extra room for you iha. Unless you want Andrew to sleep in the couch" Daddy Edward said naughtily beaming.
"Nakakahiya po kasi" Gara honestly uttered.
"Ano ba ang nakakahiya? You are part of the family" Daddy Edward declared
"Iha, if you think that we will look at you less of a decent woman because you sleeps in Andrew's, then you are wrong. Come on Graciana that's so yesterday. " Tita Stella said
"Pero kung ibang babae ang matutulog dyan at hindi ikaw, malamang magalit ako" Tita Jo seconded.
"Also tama lang na magkasama na kayo sa kwarto para makabuo pa kayo ng isa. Para naman hindi pinag aagawan si AJ. If you get married after graduation malamang hindi nag iisa si AJ. So you have to catch up really fast kiddos" Tita Stella said and the more Gara's face turn red.
"Susmaryosep" is the only word she was able to utter.
"Nakakatuwa, yan din ang sinabi ni Andrew when we told him to have another baby. Pero sana girl na" Tita Jo said smiling before the three siblings went down for a snack.
"Pinagtutulungan ako ng pamilya mo" Gara softly said, very careful that Andrew's aunts would hear.
"They are not. They were just taking out all your worries. Hey Love, I just want to make this clear. Wala akong kinalaman dyan" Andrew declared
