"Hello darling! Asan ang mommy ko?" bati sa akin ni Imee ng makauwi na siya galing sa paaralan. So, I put down my book then looked at her, lumapit naman siya sa akin to kiss me.
"Hello sweetheart, where's Bongbong?" tanong ko pabalik at may nakita naman akong bat ana tumakbo na at nagmamadali umakyat sa taas.
"Hey Little Boy, where's daddy's kiss?" sigaw ko. Bumalik naman siya sa daan niya he's backpack still hanging on his little arms, pero tiningnan lang niya ako then nag flying kiss.
"Hey SOLDIER, come greet your old man!" tawag ko ulit.
"Come Bongbong, let's go together then kay mommy." Tawag ni Imee.
"Ayaw, bye!" Pero dahil matigas ulo ng anak ko, inirapan na ako at umakyat na ng tuluyan sa taas.
"What's that your reading daddy?" tanong sa akin ng anak ko so I let her see the front cover.
"Can you read it for daddy?" tanong ko.
"The Prince?" tanong niya.
"Is that a good book daddy?" tanong niya.
"Hmmm, I'm almost done reading it and it's quite a good read, yet it's too complicated for you to read darling, maybe when you are older." Sabi ko.
"It's not like Cinderella stories and Beauty and the Beast, daddy, yung may prince?" tanong niya.
"Haha, it's not like that darling." Sagot ko.
"Oh, okay daddy. Daddy look here oh, I got 5stars kanina, because I'm very good in answering my teacher." Pagmalaki niya. I smiled at her.
"Wow, very smart naman ng anak ko. Di mo naman inaway teacher mo, anak?" tanong ko.
"No daddy, mabait naman ako." She said then put down her bag sa sofa at umakyat para umupo.
"Hmm, why are here and not with mommy?" tanong niya.
"Because, mommy is not in the mood for me." Sabi ko.
"Ano naman po ginawa nyo?" tanong niya.
"I just breathe darling, and she let me out of the room." Sabi ko
"Then don't breathe daddy." Ani niya.
"Then I'll be out of breath, magcollapse ako." Sabi ko.
"That's okay daddy, as long mommy just let you in the room." Payo niya.
"Haha, bata ka, oo. Do you have any assignments darling?" tanong ko.
"Yes, I have, but I already did it sa classroom." Answer niya.
"Why?" nagtaka naman ako.
"So that I can play longer here in the house and I can read my books." Answer niya.
"Big girl na talaga ang Imelda namin, paano yan, wala ng baby girl si daddy?" tanong ko.
"Eh, pregnant naman si mommy, may baby sibling na kami again. Dalawa na my ading." Sabi nito.
"Pinangatawanan mo na talga pagiging manang mo ha?" tanong ko.
"Yes daddy, manang na me." Sabi nito. May narinig naman kami ni Imee na naglakad papasok ng sala at yun ay ang mag ina ko.
"Imee, you go upstairs and change your clothes." Sugo ni Imelda.
"Hello mahal, wag ikaw masungit, peace." Sabi ni Imee sa mommy niya sabay hug dito sa paa niya.
