"Flowers delivery for Mommy!" Drix Leo giggled as he run towards her with a fresh picked flower on his hands.
She smiled brightly at sinalubong ang anak. Kinarga niya ito at hinalikan sa pisngi saka tinanggap ang bulaklak na dala-dala nito.
"Thank you, baby ko. You picked this for Mommy?"
Umiling ang bata.
"No. It's from Daddy. And he wanted to give you this."
Hindi siya nakagalaw ng halikan siya ng anak niya sa labi. Drix Leo giggled on her reaction.
"Daddy said, you're like a flowers, you need to be watered everyday. I-translate mo raw ng tagalog, Mommy." Drix Leo said innocently.
You're like a flowers, you need to be watered everyday?
Para kang bulaklak, kailangan diligan araw-araw...ano?!
Agad na kumalat ang kulay sa kanyang pisngi. Kung narito lang si Hellion ay pinagkukurot na niya ito.
"Where is he?" Tanong niya sa anak.
"He's not here anymore. Pumunta ng work. Mommy, I'll just play with Drix Loe."
Binaba na niya ang anak at tinungo nito ang playden nila. They played cars and robots.
"I'm Superman!" Halos magkasabay na sabi ng bata sabay hawak sa superman na laruan ng mga ito.
Natigilan ang dalawa.
"I think Spiderman is great. I'm Spiderman." Bawi ni Drix Leo.
"Oh, I'm Ironman. I love Iron man!" Bawi rin ni Loe.
Sabay nilang binitawan ang Superman na laruan at pinulot ang Iron Man at Spiderman.
She smiled at the two. She loved how they handle the situation. They will be bestfriends for sure.
Her phone beep for a message. It's from Hellion.
Hellion:
Hey, ketchup! Did you receive the flowers?
Napangiti siya at napailing.
Clea:
Oo, siraulo ka. Ano 'yung pinapasabi mo anak mo.Hellion:
Am I not sweet? Sure, kinikilig ka.
Napairap siya at napaupo sa sofa. Paminsan-minsan ay tumitingin siya sa dalawang bata habang nakikipag-text kay Hellion. Ano ba, para silang teenager.
Clea:
Kung nandito ka lang pinugpog na kita.Hellion:
Pinugpog ng halik? Okie, pauwi na.
Her eyes widen in shock and immediately type her reply.
Clea:
Don't you dare!Hellion:
Uuwi talaga ako, Misis. Dapat kasi nag-honeymoon pa tayo. Tsk.
Napailing na lang siya sa pagiging pilyo nito.
Napatigil siya sa pag-scroll ng phome ng may nagdoorbell. Tumayo siya kahit nagtataka dahil wala naman siyang inaasahan na bisita.
When she opemed the door her brow raised when she saw an unfamiliar woman.
"Yes?"
