Madison's POV.
"Mahal!"
"Miss me?" saad ni Russel habang nakangisi pa sa akin.
Tuwang tuwa akong noong mapatakbo ako sa kanya upang salubungin siya ng mahigpit na yakap sabay siil ng halik sa labi niya. "You surprised me! I thought you will be coming home tomorrow morning pa."
"I can't stay in Berlin for too long, when I knew that Randall is looking forward about family day event. I had to finish the meeting this early morning, so I could fly back home as soon as I possibly can."
"Uwu! But you seems a bit tired, mahal." Tinititigan ko siya na may halong pag-aalala sa mga mata ko.
"Pff. I can't be tired when it's about you and Randall. Kayo ang lakas ko," he said then he grabbed my waist closer to his body. He leaned towards me and whispered, "Mamayang gabi mo na lang ako pagurin." He gave me a lopsided, malicious grin on his face and winked at me.
Natawa naman ako ng malakas tapos ay marahang hinampas ko iyong dibdib niyang sintigas ng bakal. "Too early to be naughty, Mr. Silverio."
He laughed softly. "So, where's my boy?"
Ngumuso ako sa pinto sabay tiklop ng aking mga braso. "He is still snuggling underneath his sheets and won't come out to bed."
"I'll go get him for a sec," saad niya sabay halik sa noo ko at lumakad papasok sa kuwarto ni Randall. Sinundan ko naman siya tapos ay sumandal ako sa pintuan habang pinagmamasdan iyong mag-ama.
"Hey, bud. Aren't you up for some fun?" saad ni Russel sabay upo sa paanan ng kama ng anak niya.
Mabilis namang naupo si Randall tapos lumabas mula sa kumot niya nang madinig na niya ang boses ng tatay niya.
"Daddy, you're here!"
"Yeah, I am. On time. So, go get change and let's head to school. We'll gonna rock today's event!" giit niya kay Randall na pilit na hindi ipinapahalata sa anak iyong kanyang pagod mula sa biyahe.

"Let me drive," sabi ko kay Russel nang paalis na kami ng bahay.
Ngumiti lamang ito sa akin tapos ay umiling. "No, mahal. I'll drive."
"Pero pagod ka. Mukha pa ngang kulang ka sa tulog, oh." Itinuro ko iyong pagod niyang mga mata.
"I'm fine. All you have to do is to sit beside me and hold my hand while I'm driving," saad niya sabay hawak sa kamay ko at humakbang palapit sa akin. "I'm not letting my queen to do the work. It's my job to take care of you." He lifts my chin and gave me a kissed on the cheek.
We were both very surprised when Randall honked at us. He gave us an irritated look on his face, while he was leaning towards the steering wheel of the car.
"Dali! Dali! Ako, mali-late na, eh!" Randall demanded then he released an infuriating growl.
Natawa na lamang kami ni Russel tapos ay pinagbuksan na niya ako ng pinto ng kotse. "He got my talent but he definately got your temper," pabirong bulong ni Russel sa akin nang makasakay na ako ng sasakyan.
