Chapter 53:

Good Picture

"GOOD morning, Mommy!!!"

Blair chuckled. "Santino, Mommy can only see your nose and mouth. You move the camera away from your face pa."

"This, Mommy?" Umalog ang camera at inilayo ni Santino sa mukha ang phone. "Can you see me now, Mommy?"

"Better! Ang guwapo naman ng baby ko. You took a bath na?"

Her son's hair was neatly combed and he's wearing a cute baby blue polo shirt and khaki shorts.

"Yes, Mommy. Sabay kami ni Daddy nag-bath. Punta kaming office today."

"Oh, that's good! Behave ka, anak. Huwag kang makulit kapag may ginagawa si Daddy."

"Sandali lang kami sa office, Mommy. Daddy and I will make pasyal."

"Aw! Inggit ako! Saan daw kayo papasyal?"

"Marami! We're going to the hills and then sa beach. Tapos may falls pa, Mommy. Pretty daw dito sa province ni Daddy."

"Yes, Monte Amor is a very nice place. You play with your cousins when you see them there, ha? You will also visit grandpa and grandma?"

"Yes, Mommy. Doon kami kakain ni Daddy."

"Where's Daddy pala?"

"Sa loob pa ng walk-in closet, Mommy. Bibihis pa siya kasi naked pa siya."

Napangisi si Blair. "Really? Tapat mo ang camera kay Daddy, anak."

"Christeena Blair!" malakas na saway ni Jack mula sa background.

Humagikgik si Santino. Napangiwi si Blair. Naririnig pala sila.

"Naughty ka, Mommy." Santino giggled some more. "Gagalit mo si Daddy ko."

Napatingin sa relos si Blair. "Mommy's just kidding, Santino. Anyway, you take care. Enjoy your day with Daddy, ha? I will cook dinner for Mamita pa."

"Okay, Mommy. Kailan ka mag-uwi dito, Mommy?"

"Malapit na! I will just take care of Mamita. She's sick pa kasi, right?" Blair's heart pinched a little bit when Santino pouted.

"You miss me na? Nandyan naman si Daddy. Don't pout na."

"Daddy, hindi pa raw po uuwi si Mommy!" malakas na sabi ni Santino. "Wait lang tayo po."

Oh. Si Jack ba ang nagpapatanong niyon sa anak nila? Hay, cute talaga ng asawa niya.

"I love you, Jack! I miss you, babe!"

"Daddy, you heard Mommy?"

"Yeah."

Humarap ulit sa camera si Santino. "Daddy heard you, Mommy."

"Walang answer?" Now, she's the one pouting.

"Santino, say bye to Mommy. Aalis na tayo," narinig niyang sabi ni Jack sa kung nasaan man ito sa kuwarto.

"Aalis na kami, Mommy. Bye bye!"

Nakakaintinding tumango si Blair. "Kiss mo na lang si Mommy."

Ngumuso si Santino at inilapit sa nguso ang camera. "Mwah!"

Pagkalayo nito ng camera ay nahagip na si Jack na nasa likod na ni Santino. She got a peak of his fresh morning look.
