LCS 12: Kalvin Demon Martin (Completed)

Chapter 4

INSTEAD of baby sitting one baby, he ended up taking care of Marga's baby too.  Kade can handle them especially Havi was, surprisingly, sleeping in his stroller. Parang kanina lang ay kaway ito nang kaway dahil sa dami ng taong nakikita nito.

Karga niya ang anak ni Marga habang tulak tulak ang stroller ni Havi. He chuckled when he noticed the baby was staring at his face again, kanina pa ito, isa or dalawang beses lang ito kumukurap sa loob ng isang minuto. She was just staring at him, at kapag tumingin naman siya pabalik dito, ito naman ang iiwas.

"You have a good taste huh?" Natatawang tanong niya sa bata kahit alam naman niya na hindi 'yon sasagot.

The baby just giggled and started to blabbered. Hindi niya ito naiintindihan but Kade kept on chuckling because the baby kept on trying to squeezed his face using her small hands. Sanay na siya na mag-alaga ng bata, thanks to his friends na pinapahiram ang anak ng mga ito sa kanila na wala pang asawa kapag may importante ang mga ito na gagawin.

Kade pouted his lips and the baby immediately leaned forward and kissed him on the lips. Natawa siya at the same time ay nagulat. For a baby, masyado itong mabilis dumamoves.

His gazed went to Shen and caught her looking, or should he say staring, at them. Hindi niya alam kung namamalikmata lang ba siya o sa nakadikit na labi nilang dalawa ng batang hawak niya ang tingin nito. Her poker face was somehow scary. Hindi na siya nagtaka nang bigla nalang itago ng batang karga niya ang mukha nito sa leeg niya.

"You're scaring her," aniya.

Napakurap si Shen at deretso na tumingin sa kanya. She smiled at him. But Kade can tell whether it's a genuine one or not. "Sorry." She apologized, tsaka ito nag-iwas ng tingin at sinundan si Marga na maingat na sinusuri ang mga tela.

"It's okay, Tita Shen is good. Don't be scared hmm?" Hinaplos niya muna ang likod ng bata bago itulak ang stroller ni Havi para hindi sila maiwan.

Alam naman niya kung saan ang susunod na punta nila. It's not his first time here. He worked once and his father forced him to manage the production area.

"Sir? May anak ka na po pala?!"

"Ang cute naman ng baby! Kamukha po siguro ito ng nanay no sir?" Tanong ng isa na nakayuko at pinagmamasdan na mabuti si Havi.

Havi looks like Mikael more than Ezecquiel. The workers were now crowding them, medyo naiirita na rin ang bata na hawak niya dahil mas lalo lang nitong isinisiksik ang mukha sa leeg niya.

"Hi, excuse me. I'm sorry, akin na muna siya." Marga smiled apologetically to him. Inabot niya ang anak nito.

"Siya po ba ang asawa niyo sir? Napaka ganda naman!"

"Ah no, I'm married. Pero hindi po sa kanya." Marga answered.

"Kung ganoon, si ma'am Shen po ba?"

Kade gulped and glance at Shen. Natatawang umiling ito sa mga empleyado bago bumaba ang tingin nito kay Havi, papunta sa kanya.

"Hindi pa po ako ready magka-anak." She simply answered.

So, wala silang balak na bigyan ako ng kapatid?

"Sa kaibigan ko po. Pinabantayan lang." Kade said. Para matapos na ang usapan.

He politely excuse himself, para matapos na din ang tour ni Marga sa production area nila. Kade wanted to rest, he misses his bed already.

Saktong lunch time sila natapos. Thankfully, may kaibigan siya na maaasahan when it comes to food. Yves delivered their lunch. Kapag sa unit siya umuuwi, palagi siya nitong pinapahatiran ng pagkain, lunch and dinner. Yves was afraid that he'll poison himself with his cooking skills.
