Napapansin kong tahimik ang bunso namin, this is so unusual. She's my bubbly daughter.

" bunso are you okay? " I asked nandito sya sa office ko

" h..huh? m..mom " ngumiti lang ako at hinawakan ang kamay nya

" come on baby, you can tell me everything, mom is here sweetheart" I sweetly replied

" m..mom what will do you if someone just confess that she like you? " she asked I grinned she playfully rolled her eyes

" looks like my baby is hiding something hehe, come on anak I can't see something wrong with that, or you don't like the one who just confess? " I asked she sighed

" Mom its not like that, that I don't like her she's nice mom, she's too nice and an ideal partner to be exact but I don't know I can't see myself to be in a relationship to anyone for now " she sadly replied I carressed her cheek

" well just be honest anak, if you're not ready just tell her or him. If he or she truly love you it will always worth to wait hija, may I know kung sinong matapang na nagconfess sayo? " nakangiting tanong ko napabuntong hininga ang anak ko

" s...si D..Dra. Jimenez po " nakapikit na sagot nya nanlaki ang mata ko at ngumiti

" o...oh our great Neurologist, as in anak si Dra. Jimenez? " hindi makapaniwalang tanong ko tumango-tango sya

" for sure matutuwa ang Dada kaibigan nila ang mommy ni Dra. Jimenez " dagdag ko pa napabuntong hininga lang sya

" come on anak why don't you give a try, I agree she's nice and kind plus she's doctor too. I know you'll get along. " I replied she shook her head

" I don't know Mom, I really don't know. Ayaw ko syang paasahin Mom, ayoko syang saktan masyado syang mabait " sagot nya pinisil ko lang ang kamay nya

" you don't have to worry about anything hija, gaya ng sinabi ko kung talagang mahal ka nya maiintindihan nya ano man ang desisyon mo. Why don't you try to go out with her para mas makilala nyo ang isa't isa kung wala parin then you can still be friends " sagot ko tumango sya at ngumiti

" Thank you Mom! hindi ko talaga alam ang gagawin ko " sagot nya at yumakap sa akin hinalikan ko naman ang noo nya

" baby kita, you don't have to thank me hija. Mom is always here para sa inyong magkakapatid. Dra. Jimenez is a good person anak, I can feel it. " I replied

" Mom sabi ko naman hindi pa ako handa " nakangusong sagot nya tumawa lang ako

" nagbibiro lang si Mommy anak ikaw naman hehe " sagot ko

" Hay oo nalang Mom, but I have to go. Thank you for our lunch. I love you " she replied I gently nodded she kissed my cheek and wave goodbye
