Habang nakatingin si Anthony sa may bintana, naramdaman niya na lang na may biglang pumulupot sa kanyang katawan, a pair of a small arms.. Nakayakap si Angeline mula sa likuran ng kanyang asawa. Hindi pa nakuntento ang babae ay pinapaulanan niya pa ito ng mga maliliit na halik sa bandang batok ni Anthony.
Humarap si Anthony kay Angeline habang may ngiti na gumuguhit sa kanyang labi.
"Good morning!" Angeline greeted her husband cheerfully as she shown her white set of teeth.
"Good morning my Queen, how's your sleep?" Anthony asked while looking at his wife. Thinking how could this woman looks so perfect, as if she's really is the masterpiece made by God.
"It was fine." Angeline answered as she smile widely, widely than her first one. "You know what? We should take our breakfast. I am so excited to meet your daughter." As she pulled Anthony towards on the dining area.

Kakauwi pa lang ng mag-asawa galing sa kanilang honeymoon ay dumiretsyo na kaagad sila sa dating bahay ni Anthony upang sunduin ang kanyang anak na si Angeline at ang Yaya nito na si Manag Elise.
Pagkababa na pagkababa ni Athony sa kotse, para sana pagbuksan ng pintuan si Angeline nang may isang dalagang nagtatakbo papunta sa kanya.
"Papa!" Like a little girl, Angelica ran towards her Father and hugged him tightly. Angelica grew up without a Mom kaya atat na atat siyang makilala si Angeline, for the second time. They already saw each other at the church during the wedding ceremony. Simula rin pagkabata ni Angeline ay attached na attached na ito sa kanyang Ama.
When Angeline slowly remove her arms around her Father's neck, hindi pa ito nakuntento ay pinaliguan niya pa ito ng halik.
"Nak, napuno na ako ng laway." Patawang sabi ng kanyang Ama at ginulo ang buhok niya.
She pouted her lips as she started to stomped her feet. "Pa, I'm not a baby anymore. Stop messing with my hair. Like duh, ano po ba atraso ng buhok ko sa'yo Pa?" Angelica sarcastically throw her father a stupid question.
Anthony was about to open his mouth when the two of them got distracted from one's giggled. The two looked at Angeline and smiled. Inakbayan ni Anthony si Angelica and lead her towards her step mom, Angeline.
"The two of you looks so cute." Angeline said, as she once again, giggled. When I looked at Angelica, she's all smile. Showing her white set of teeth.
Lumapit si Anthony sa asawa at hinawakan ang maliit nitong bewang saka inilapit sa kanyang bisig. They are now facing Angelica who is still smiling at them.
"Princess, this is your step mom. Angeline Dela Cruz- Suarez" Angeline waved her hand and mouthed hi. Lumapit naman si Angelica at nakipagbeso-beso sa kanyang Ina.
Nakatulala lang si Angeline ng humiwalay sa kanya si Angelica. Anthony looked at them with a confuse look. Until Angelica burst out laughing, holding her tummy. As if she can't breath.
"Ma, I was just joking. Don't took that seriously." Angelica said, Anthony looked at Angeline, at napansin nitong bumalik na ang dating kulay ng mukha ng kanyang asawa. Mukhang nakahinga na ito ng maluwag saka ngumiti.
"What kind of joke did you said this time Angelic?"
Angelic smiled at her Dad sweetly before she answered. "The usual Dad." Eversince, Angelica really like to scare people. Saying that there someone's on their back, or someone was watching on them for a long time without knowing.
The truth is, a year ago Anthony asked Angelica why does she joke like that. And she just answered her Dad with a shrugged and said 'I just like their reactions Dad'.
