When they reach the porch of Novie's house, Novie opened the door and saw her father sitting in couch, drinking the juice.
"Hi pa" she greeted him.
"This is Matthew, remember Daniella's husband? This is his cousin" she introduces them to each other. Angelo got up and extended his hand for a handshake.
"Welcome to our house Mr.Su" he spoke in a serious tone.
Matthew smiled and accepted his hand.
"please call me Matthew Mr. McSalter and I just want to ask. Is that the window I need to fix?" Matthew asked, one finger pointing at the broken window.
Angelo creased his brow and looked at the window.
"you don't need to fix that, someone broke it last night" Angelo offered him a drink.
"I know who broke it, the same woman asked me to fix it, for free" Matthew flattened his face as he responds, his eyes focused at the broken window.
Matthew sat down on the chair opposite to Angelo while Alexa and Ethan sat on his lap, he poker his face and looked to them.
"does my leg look like a couch?" he asked in a dulled voice. The two looked at him and shook their heads.
"we just like doing this" Alexa replied and point at the table.
"what is that uncle Angelo?" she asked with her tiny voice.
Angelo moved forward to give Alexa a glass of juice.
"this is a coconut juice, your uncle Ken got the fruits by himself today" he spoke in a cheered voice and handed the cup to Alexa.
Novie who was removing her shoes suddenly frosts by her father's words. She covered her mouth with her hand look at her father, shocked.
"you asked Ken to climb a coconut tree?" she asked in disbelief
Angelo, without looking at her smile and replied, his hand was busy serving juices to the triplets
"yes. Go and check your boyfriend he whines like a small boy, so scared of climbing the tree."
"pa!" Novie suddenly yelled at him.
"he never climbed a tree how can you do this? What if he falls down and break his body? How can you do this?" she curled her nose in annoyance by her father's action. She thought Ken was overacting but climbing the coconut tree can really be dangerous.
Without waiting for his response. Novie scurried off of the house but before she reaches the door, her mind processed her father's word.
(Go and check your boyfriend)
With those words playing in a repeat in her mind. She turned her back to face her father.
"pa. Does it mean you have accepted him?"
Angelo looked at her. The smile he had in his face disappeared
"yes. But tell him were not done. We might go fishing tomorrow" her father's face shifted back at the triplets and smile again. Before leaving, she could hear her father talking to the triplets.
"can you all stay here and live with us?" your parents are young they can make more."
Novie shook her head and ran to Anders' house.
"Ken" she screamed his name after slamming the door opened.
Ken was in the toilet busy putting the cream all over his body, he was not expecting that all the bites from the insect can cause his body to numb.
"Ouch! damn it so itchy" he curses inside while putting the cream.
When he heard the door opening, he didn't bother to get up, his whole body is still tingling.
"I'm in the bathroom Novie" he screamed, he closed the tube cream and exhaled.
When the door opened, Novie eyes widened and immediately turned her back.
Ken was only wearing his underwear and nothing else.
Ken creased his brows in confusion.
"Ok, Novie stops playing innocent. You've seen me naked before" he spoke in a robot tone but Novie didn't move.
"hey" he tried to reach to Novie's arm, but the girl moves away while her hands are covering her eyes.
"you... there's a leech in your right leg. Ew... take it off" she squeals while her skin shivered.
Ken immediately looked at his feet and removed it without a problem. He throws it in the toilet and flushes it.
"it's gone" hearing it, Novie opened her eyes and sighed.
"I am sorry I hate-" all the words she was about to say disappeared when she felt his soft lips on her.
Her heart jerked for a moment but her hand find its way up to his neck and pull him closer.
Ken's one hand snake around her waist while the other closed the door of the bathroom, he pushed her against the wall while his lips lowered to her neck, leaving marks all over it.

"Ken wait" Novie's eyes went round and immediately pushed him away.
The man looked at her in confusion.
"what?" he asked, Novie could see the protest in his face.
"The triplets are here so we ahm.. can't…" she stuttered and can't find the right words to say it.
Ken chuckled, his hand messes her hair and plant a small kiss on her head.
"I know. Let me take a shower first"
Novie nodded her red face and opened the door.
"I'll see you later" Ken ticked his tongue and winked at her as a response.
"Go before I change My mind" he spoke teasingly. Novie creased her brows but her feet moved by itself and walk away.
Meanwhile, after the triplets finished their juices. Ethan and Leo went to the kitchen and washed their glasses. When they came back, Matthew and Alexa are about to leave.
"goodbye uncle Angelo," the triplets said in rhythm.
"ok bye. Don't forget tomorrow. Can you show your dance move to my co-workers?" Angelo asked, his eyes glistened with hope.
Ethan and Leo dismissively shook their head, refusing to dance.
"Don't worry uncle Angelo. We will dance" Alexa assured her. Her brother looked at her to protest.
"I don't want," Ethan said
"me too" Leo added.
Alexa screwed up her face while tears forming in her eyes, she pounded her fist on the table and stared at her brothers with her eyes shimmered in tears. She sniffed repeatedly as if she's trying to stop herself from crying.
The two boys looked at each other and sighed
They held each of her arms and shook it.
"fine." Alexa shut her eyes and two tears ran down from her eyes, after her brother wipe the tears away from her cheeks, a smile formed on her lips.
"good now let's go practice" saying that, she leads the way to the door while her two brothers, with their shoulder sagged in defeat, followed her.
Matthew and Angelo looked at each other
"She knows how to control her brother" Angelo spoke in disbelief
Matthew shrugged his shoulder.
"Well. Her mother is the master of manipulation so this is not a surprise" Matthew extended his hand to bid his goodbye
"pleasure to meet you Mr. McSalter " then he rushed out to follow the triplets
--
Matthew and the triplets walked to Ander's house. As they reached the door Matthew saw Novie scurrying off of the house, face red and eyes shining in embarrassment.
He stretched his arm to block her way
Meanwhile, Novie ran out of the house when Ken tried to pull her to shower, some water made her clothes wet while her face was burning.
As she steps out of the house, Matthew's long arms block her way, she lifted her blushing face and look at him in confusion
"what is it Matthew?" she asked.
The man in front narrowed his eyes while a devilish smile curved up his lips.
"that was quick. Tsk Tsk... I think I need to give Ken some advice on how to satisfy a woman" Matthew clicked his tongue and rushed inside the house leaving the triplets with her and confusion was all over their faces
It took some time before Novie understand what Matthew meant. Her eyes widened and looked down to the triplets.
Her heart bounced when she saw Ethan searching the same exact word Matthew spoke earlier.
"wait... no, don't look" she stuttered and took the tablet from Ethan.
Novie immediately closed the browser and squatted on the floor while giving the tablet back to Ethan.
"look, kids. Don't listen to every word the adults are saying. Ok?" she asked while her eyes shift around the triplets, the three nodded obediently and entered the house
As she watched them leave, her lips twitched and processed her word.
(Wait did I said it right?) She asked herself
Novie got up and left the porch. As she was about to enter their house, she saw Mila outside their house with a binocular, looking over her brother's room.
Novie flattened her face and picked up a small rock, she hides behind the palm tree and throws the rock at Mila.
She could hear the girl swearing as the rock smacked her arm.
(That's what you'll get for being such a weirdo) she laughed inside.
