Melting Me Softly (Sanford Series #5) [COMPLETED]

CHAPTER 12

ISANG ngiti ang sumilay sa mga labi ni Sabrina nang maradaman ang malamig na bagay na tumatama sa kanyang pisngi. Pagmulat niya ng mga mata ay agad na sumalubong sa kanya si Snow na nakatayo na sa ibabaw ng kanyang ama, dinidilaan ang kanyang mukha upang siyang gisingin.

"Good morning, baby." Binuhat niya ito, inilagay sa kanyang dibdib at niyakap.

Dalawang buwan na mula nang makilala niya si Snow, at sa loob ng mga buwang iyon ay malaki ang naiambag ni Snow upang pagaanin ang kanyang loob. Lalo na't may isang asungot na umaaligad na laging nagpapainis sa kanya.

The puppy wiggled her tail merrily while laying on top of her and looking at her face. She's just so adorable.

She got up from her and carry Snow in her arms. She walked towards the glass wall and removed the curtains and the bright light from the sun greeted them.

Sabrina sighed when she felt the peace of mind as she stared outside her window while Snow was in her arms.

"This is a good day for a walk. What do you think, Snow? Do you want to go outside?" Mukhang naintidahan ng aso ang sinabi niya dahil nagsimula itong maglulumikot sa kanyang mga braso at dinilaan ang kanyang mukha. "Okay. But let's have breakfast first and take a bath."

Pagkatapos maligo ay sabay silang bumaba ni Snow sa kusina, sabay rin silang kumain.

Sa tuwing wala siyang pasok, gaya ng araw na iyon, ay sabay nilang ginagawa ang mga bagay-bagay. She loved spending time with her. Snow was more than just a companion, she was the only one who can make her smile genuinely, she cheered her up when she felt down or stressed from work.

Suot ang isang komportableng short, maluwag na damit at snickers ay lumabas sila ni Snow ng bahay.

It was a sunny day, though the heat from the sun wasn't enough to burn her skin. It was a good day to go to a park so she brought Snow to a mini-park located in her neighborhood. Dahil weekdays at may pasok ay wala siyang ganoong nakikitang mga batang naroon na siyang kadalasang maglaro roon.

She let Snow played and have fun on the grassy ground. She was happily playing around and Sabrina felt contentment while staring at her.

Napatingin siya sa kanyang kaliwa nang maramdaman ang paglapit ng isang bata roon. Umupo ito sa kaliwang swing habang may pasak na lollipop sa bibig.

Umangat ang sulok ng mga labi ni Sabrina nang ngumiti sa kanya ang bata, kita ang bungal nito sa itaas na ngipin sa gitnang bahagi.

"What happened to your teeth?"

Dramatikong napabuntung-hininga ang bata bago sumagot. "Natanggal na rin po siya. Masakit po rito nong hindi pa siya natanggal." Sabay turo sa bungal nito. "Sabi naman ni Mommy ko babalik din dila," anito sabay kibit ng balikat at muling isinubo ang lollipop.

"Do you know that lollipops and other sweets are the causes why your teeth were aching?" Sabrina asked amusedly. She always had fun talking to Vodka's kids, they had become her friends, they often visit her in her house to see Snow whenever she was on a day-off or its weekends. Tuwing may pasok siya ay sa bahay ng mga Lorenzo niya iniiwan si Snow.

"No way!" Napasinghap pa ito at tinakpan ang dalawang tainga at ikiniling-kiling ang ulo. Kapagkuwan ay ngumuso. "That's what Mommy and Kuya Key said, but I don't believe them. I like sweets," the kid said stubbornly.

Sabrina smiled, kung hindi niya napigilan ang sarili ay baka tumawa na siya. "Listen to your Mommy and Whiskey, Bran." Sabay dukwang niya rito at hinaplos ang buhok nito na nakanguso pa rin. "Why are you here alone? Where's your Yaya?"

Nanghinala si Sabrina nang ngumisi sa kanya si Brandy at napakamot ng ulo. "Can you keep a secret po?"

"Maybe?"
