ATE FELY’S HOME


My hubby’s sister is home after two years of slaving away in Qatar…I am not sure if this is the first time that she’ll be coming home but what I do know is that this is the first time we will be going over to the airport to pick her up. It was just too bad that her flight home is too late (10 or 11 pm I think) but I guess that’s the promo package that she got so who am I to complain. It was a weekday when we picked her up so after delivering the shuttle passengers at SM Fairview, we picked up Kaye and Ditse at SM and went to the airport. Expectedly, we were there early at around 8 so we had to wait for like two hours more before she went out. We ate our dinner there at a Jollibee kiosk inside the waiting area. Much has been improved with the NAIA terminal but it still leaves much to be desired.

When finally, Ate Fely came out, we travelled all the way to Bahay Pare to bring her home to Inang and the others who waited up for her arrival. Of course, we had to stay for the opening of the packages so we can have our share of the pasalubongs… I don’t remember anymore what she got for me or my kids but what I do know is that she gave Jun rubber shoes – black Adidas which is a bit small but can still fit him. And of course, chocolates! We were able to go back home at 2am na…but I’m just glad the hubby is happy not only with what he received from his sister, but also to be able to spend time with her. At least, if even for just a month, they would be able to spend precious moments with her before she goes back to Qatar for two more years of hard labor.
