"Markus, let the stranger in, Kuya," Ethan said. "I already warned him you'd be upset, but he didn't listen."
While eating breakfast, Reed asked them if they were letting anyone else into the house. Reed confirms that Emy's siblings are the ones who let other people into his home, which causes him harm.
"I'm sorry, Kuya," Markus said. "Nothing like this will ever happen again."
"It ought to be," Reed replied. "Negligence leads to trouble."
"I'm sorry, Reed," Eddie said. "These kids seem to have forgotten what I told them."
Reed couldn't help but be irritated by what had happened. Emy's own family will ruin her. Reed took a deep breath. "Enrollment is about to begin," Emy said. "We'll be seeing your potential school next week."
"Ate?" Elijah asked. "Will you enroll me in a private school?"
Emy gave the nod. "Yeah, so you should be good to me, okay?"
Emy's siblings all agreed, "Yes, Ate." Emy smiled.
