the reyes clan


the biggest surprise in the reyes clan

secrets lurk everywhere: among friends, office mates, classmates and most of all, among families. and just like any other families, the reyes clan holds far too many secrets. and im in the mood to tell you that one secret. that my aunt is gay. actually it's quite amusing because it is a screaming secret in itself. you'll be crazy not to notice it. heck, she has a girlfriend living with her in my lola's house. lola, a devout born again christian (you know how they can be oh so religious) does not see it at all. i dunno why. denial? how can she ever deny that? it's as clear as the scorching sun today.

but the secret i wanna share with you the most is this. lolo left for the US more than a decade ago. it was 1993 when we all last saw him. and this past months, there were rumors that he is coming back - only with a very special... uhmmm.. package. this "package" he met in the US and they are now living in together. there were talks, and i was among them, that this is happenning and how my tito's would swear that this "package" can never step, lest, go near the reyes compound. and luckily for them, and the "package", this never had to happen because last night, lolo came - alone. we were all surprised because we never, ever, expected it. but what the heck, he's here and were all happy. supposedly.

so i leave you now with that because i still have some things to do, one of which is to take a bath and start studying for my finama test tomorrow.

ciao!
