Madison's POV.
"Mommy? Daddy? What are you doing?" Nakakunot ang maliit na noo ni Randall noong makita namin siyang nakatayo sa pintuan, hawak ang telepono ko.
Mabilis pa sa alas kuwatro noong bumaba ako mula sa pagkakabuhat ni Russel sa'kin, sabay tulak ng malakas sa kanya.
"N-nothing, sweetheart! I just got something on my eye and your dad is trying to help," palusot ko sa kanya habang nagpapaypay ng aking sarili.
"Yeah, just trying to help," Russel chuckled in a very teasing voice.
"Oh, okay! I though you guys were kissing. So how's my cake?" Randall giggled as he climbed up to the table again.
I suddenly gulped in surprise when Russel gently squeezed my butt, without making his son notice the cockiness he did behind my back. I looked up to with an irritated face but he just gave me a malicious grin on his face.
I spanked his hand and sharply glared at him. "Get your hands off my butt or you'll going to miss one fingers forever," I whispered but he just laugh about it.
"Come on, buddy. Ayusin na lamang natin iyong mga lamesa't upuan sa garden," saad ni Russel sabay binitbit sa bisig niya si Randall.
"That would be great. With that, I could decorate the cake PEACEFULLY." I intentionally emphasized the word peacefully to him, as I grab the patry bag.
Russel chuckled because he knew what I am talking about. "Great. Then I'll just have MY DESSERT tonight," he said flirtatiously.
"Are you talking about the cake, daddy?" sabat ni Randall na mukhang hirap intindihin iyong pag-uusap namin ng tatay niya.
"Hehe! Of course, I'm talking about the cake, you silly." Russel laughed awkwardly. He even winked at me before they finally headed out the kitchen.
When I was finally all by myself, I can't help not to laugh with all the double meanings we have been throwing at each other. I'm just really thankful that my son is still young to be able the read between the lines or even think outside the box.
"Pff. I just hope that Randall won't be as naughty as his dad. All he could think of is sex. What a sex addict!" natatawang bulong ko sa aking sarili habang napapailing iling.

"Happy birthday, Randall. Happy birthday, Randall. Happy birthday... Happy birthday... Happy birthday, Randall," masaya ang lahat nang kantahan namin nang sabay-sabay si Randall na ngayon ay ipinagdiriwang ang kanyang kaarawan.
"Yehey! Go and blow your candles, sweetheart," I whispered to him.
After blewing his candles, we all clapped for him. Russel then carried him in his arms with a smile on his face.
"Do you want to make a speech for everyone, buddy?" Russel asked him.
"Okay," Randall answered then cleared his throat. "First of all, I would like to make a toast for my parents who organized my birthday party. My ninang and ninong who came home earlier as expected from their honeymoon, just to join us here. Also, my lola who is here with us today, despite of not feeling well. My friends and playmates from school. Thank you all for coming. Cheers!" Randall raised his glass of coke.
"CHEERS!"
Gumuhit ng isang matamis na ngiti iyong labi ko matapos kong madinig ang maikling mensahe ni Randall sa mga bisita niya. Hindi ako makapaniwalang isang taon na naman ang nadagdag sa kanyang murag edad.
