Chapter 136: Splishin' Splashin' and Smoochin'

"Ate Halley, why aren't you and ate Abbey swimming?" Adan asks them while he enjoys the sand and water.

"Because we're looking after you," Halley chuckles.

"Then swim with me na lang po, let's play!"

"We can't, we're also looking after our things," Abbey added.

Adan frowned at them, "we will swim near lang po, I don't have any playmate naman po kasi here. Pleaseee?"

"Fine, fine," she accepted, "but we can't go over there, okay? That's too far."

"Okay, ate Halley!"

"Hmm! Where's your parents kasi kiddo?! No offense, Dan. But we're not supposed to babysit you," Halley giggles, "nasaan ba ang magulang mo!"

Adan shrugged, "dunno, they said they'll have a date po diba remember?"

"They should be the one looking after you baby eh! I'm bored of just swimming! I want action!"

"Let's just wait a little more, okay?" Abbey told Halley while she giggles, "why don't we take snaps of Dan? He likes it."

"It's better than just the plain and boring swimming."

"Are you going to take photos of me po?" Adan exclaimed when his siblings nods at him, "okay po! I like it!"

"Nice! Oh, you go smile, babie!" Halley told her baby brother.

"On the count of three!" Abbey says.

"1... 2... Smile!"

*shutter clicks*

"Will you post it po, ate?" Adan asked them as he tried to look at his newly shot photo.

Halley giggles, "sure, baby! I've got the caption ready!"

"Hal! OMG, I can't!" Abbey burst into tears from laughing so hard, "you're such a drama queen!"

"What? I just say what's on my mind!"

"Yeah, in a very straightforward manner!"

Halley winked at her, "what can I say, I'm Halley Gomez! You'll get the hang of it, Avs!"

"Sure will!" Abbey giggles too.

"Going back! Dan, can you pose one more? But this time do it like laying down on the sand or try to float—"

     "Wait! I have a pose na po!"

     "You do?"

     "Yes, ate Abbey!"

     "Nice! Oh, you do it na!"

     "Okay!" Adan says then carefully laid himself down on the water but not totally.
