Jho

Nag bbake kami ng cookies ng anak kong si Nolan at nandito rin si Baham, he's visiting us dito sa bahay

"I can't wait til the cookies are done momma, it smells sooo good" Nolan

Three years old na siya ngayon. He really looks like Bea, kaya kahit wala si Bea dito parang lagi ko pa rin siyang kasama

"Are you sure you really helped your momma young man? Or you just gobbled up the chocolate chips" Baham chuckles

"No uncle I didn't but......I ate just a three bits of chocolates hehe. The important thing is I helped my momma, right momma?" Nolan

"Yes and you did a great job anak"

Ting! The cookies are done

Si Abraham na ang naglabas ng cookies at pinatong sa rack

"Oh wewait haha, it's still hot. Wait for it to cool ok?" sabi ni Baham kay Nolan

"Okk, but I'm so hungry for this uncle" Nolan

"Anak just wait, we don't want you to get burnt"

"Ok" Nolan

"While waiting for it you go and play first over there, and open the gift I brought for you" Baham

"I have a gift uncle?!"

"Yup" Baham

"Yeyyy! Thank you and I love you uncle you're the best!" Nolan

"Oh where's my kiss" Baham

Nolan kisses Baham on the cheeks

"I love you Nolan"

Pumunta na si Nolan sa sala at naglaro na ito kaya kami nalang ni Abraham ang nasa kitchen

"Jho bat antahimik mo yata?" Baham hugs me sideways

"Wala I'm just really happy for my son"

"Yeah, you raised him right" Baham

"Because you helped me, kaya thank you. Ang saya ng buhay ko ngayon"

"Uhm Jho, w-will you give me a chance now?" Baham

Abraham wants to court me kase. Nasanay na akong kasama siya pero hindi ako sure kung may nararamdaman ba talaga ako for him. Pero lagi ko na siyang hinahanap pag wala siya dito, hindi ko lang pinapahalata

"Let's take things slow mmkay? I still have things to figure out"

"Ok I will wait for you Jho, I love you" Baham

"Yieeee uncle Baham is hugging my momma" Nolan

Naka hug pa rin kasi si Baham sa'kin sideways

"Why are you here? I thought you were just playing anak"

"Momma can't you remember we just baked cookies, so I need to taste it first before you and uncle" Nolan

"Manang mana ka talaga sa momma mo hehe, laging gutom" Baham at binuhat si Nolan

"Grabe ka sa'kin ha?"

"Huh? I can't understand you uncle and even momma, can you even speak well?" Nolan

"Hirap na hirap na akong mag English anak haha"

English kasi ang first language ni Nolan at matalino rin siya, kahit bata palang ay marami na siyang alam na facts

"Ok I won't mind you guys, I'll just eat my cookies now"

Kaya ayun ang anak ko ang unang tumikim ng cookies and masarap daw. Siyempre gawa namin yun eh

Nang matapos kaming kumain tumambay kaming tatlo dito sa sala. Sina Nolan at Baham ay naglalaro habang ako kausap ko si mama sa phone

*Lovel and Jho's phone call*

"Umuwi na kayo anak. Miss na miss ko na ang apo ko" Lovel

"Ma hindi ko po alam kung iuuwi ko po siya, alam niyo naman po kung bakit"

"Anak may karapatan si Bea na malaman ito, kaya wag mong itago" Lovel

"Masaya na si Bea ma, baka pagsimulan pa ng gulo ang anak ko pag nalaman nila. Baka sisihin ng asawa ni Bea ang anak ko pag nagkataon"

Kwento kasi nila mama pati mga friends ko na nakikita nila si Bea kasama si Jana at ang anak nila na lumalabas. May mga fans rin kasi siyang nag post ng mga stolen pics nilang tatlo. Kahit pa nag retire na siya sa racing may nakakakilala pa rin kasi sa kanya

"Eh bigyan mo na kasi ng chance si Baham anak, gusto ko siya para sa'yo" Lovel

"Ma hindi ako sure sa kanya"

"O baka si Bea pa rin" Lovel

"None of them ma focused ako sa anak ko"

"Sana makita mo kung gaano ka pinapahalagahan ni Baham anak, wag mo sanang isarado yang puso mo" Lovel

"Opo ma"

Nang matapos ang tawag namin ni mama nagsalita si Nolan

"Momma I wanna go somewhere far" Nolan

"Where do you wanna go anak?"

"I want to go to grandpa, grandma, and aunt Jaja's place momma pleaseeee" Nolan

"You're leaving uncle Baham now?" Baham

"Of course not uncle, we will go on a vacation the three of us. Nolan, momma, and uncle Baham" Nolan

"You want to go in the Philippines anak?"

"Yes momma I really want to" Nolan

"What if I ask you this, do you want just a vacation or live there for good?"

"Uhm it depends if I like the environment there" Nolan

"Your grandma said she misses you"

"I miss her more momma so please let us go to Philippines now" Nolan

"Nolan let your momma decide for you ok? Don't ask about it multiple times" Baham

"Why uncle? What's wrong of going in the Philippines?" Nolan

"Uhh the temperature in the Philippines is not the same as here anak, it's hot in there"

"Oh cool, I like it momma" Nolan

"But there's a pollution young man" Baham

"Oww the government should fix it uncle" Nolan

"Actually anak your uncle Baham and I voted for the presidential candidate who will make our country better"

"Oh did your bet won momma?" Nolan

"Unfortunately no young man, majority of the voters in the Philippines chooses the one who's lack of credentials and has lots of criminal cases" Baham

"Owww that's sad" Nolan

"Yeah"
