"Grabe naman to, diba nung pinagbubuntis mo si Thirdy, nagpa-wax na tayo?"
"Eeeeehhh!!! Parang mas masakit this time?"
"Hay naku Diego....ang arte-arte mo ha.....parang di ka pa sanay e lagi ka nagpapa-wax diba?"
"Ehhhh sa masakit! Mahapdi! Ano ba tong gamit mo ngayon, Jopay?"
"Tulad pa rin ng dati....baka naging mas sensitive ka lang kasi jontis ka na ulit.....medyo may konting growth na nga dito o....kelan ka nga ulit nagpa-wax?"
"3-4 months ago?...."
"Eh kaya masakit.....di ka na sanay ulit...." Ricci says.
"Ricci naman eeeeeee.....hold my hand nalang pleaseeeeeeeeee" Diego pleads.
"O sige....sige....ARAY! Grabe ka naman makahawak....."

"Mama, why does Dada walk funny? Ganun ba talaga pag pregnant?"
"No....he just had some waxing done on her pepay...."
"Waxing?"
"....most people have the hair in their bodies waxed.... when you're older, you can choose to have it done also....diba your book shows that when boys and girls reach puberty, they grow hair in other parts of the body....not just the head?"
"....in the kili-kili and putotoy.....here...." Thirdy touches his front
"That's right....some people choose to remove the hair because they want to keep it clean and smooth...."
"....wag mong sasabihin yan sa harap ni Dada....magagalit yun!"
"Okay...." Thirdy cups his hand on his mouth.
"Anak....what would you want to have, a baby sister or a baby brother?" Ricci asked Thirdy.
"Hmm....I want......I want a baby brother...."
"Bakit naman?"
"Para may kalaro ako....."
"Eh paano kung baby sister sya?"
"....hmm....okay lang.....magpplay pa rin kami...."
"Basta you promise to take of the baby and love the baby..."
"Yes, Mama!"
".....eh what will you name the baby naman?"
"Hmmm.....if boy, Sebastian....."
"Sebastian? Where did you get that name?"
"From my book....brave warrior si Sebastian e...."
"Ahh...eh paano naman kung girl?"
"Kung girl?"
"If you have a baby sister?"
"Hmm.....Charmaine...."
"Saan naman galing yung Charmaine?"
"Hmm.....nadinig ko si Dada dati sabi nya, maganda daw name ng girl ang Charmaine...."
"Ahhh...."
= = = = = = = =
"Hon....I asked Thirdy kanina kung anong gusto nyang name nung baby...."
"What did he say?"
"Sebastian daw kung boy......Charmaine naman kung girl...."
"Sebastian? San galing yun?"
"Hmmm.....sabi nya, from his books daw.....honestly, I like the name....it's cute....it means 'revered'."
"Eh yung Charmaine?"
"He says he heard it from you daw...."
"Me?"
"Nabanggit mo daw before..."
"Ahh...I think I mentioned about combining our names....."
"Ricci and Diego? San yung Charmaine dun?"
"Richard and Dei Maria kasi...."
"Ahh...."
"Pero hon, when mo ba talaga sasabihin ang gender ng baby?"
"Hmmm...." Diego turned on his side and pretended to sleep.
"Are you sleeping na ba?" Ricci peeped over Diego's shoulder.
Diego could not contain his giggles and turned to kiss Ricci on the lips.
"You really want to know?"
"Oo naman...."
"We're having....."
"A....."
Diego pulls out a packet of M&Ms.
"Chocolate? At this time? Baket? Are you craving for these?" Ricci takes the packet of candy, confused.
"No...." Diego giggles and pulls out more packets of candy.
"Susmaryosep! Ang dami naman nito....wait....wait....." Ricci says and tries to analyse the "clues" given to her. "One, two, three.....nine.....eto naman, one, two, three.....tatlo lang.....mas maraming plain....."
"Okay....you've almost got it...." Diego is grinning widely.
"nine plain.....three with peanuts....."
"Yes?" Diego's eyes grow bigger.
"Oh wow! Oh wow! Oh wow!!! Wow!!" Ricci "gets" it and hugs Diego tightly. "WOW!"
