"Mommy! Mommy! Kiss, Mommy!"
"Hmmm, sarap naman! How's school, Faulky? Kwentuhan mo naman kami ni baby Princess, namiss ka namin eh."
I rubbed my bulging belly for emphasis.
"I had fun, Mommy and baby Princess inside Mommy's tummy. We read, we write, we count, we play, we sing, we dance. You know, baby Princess, I will teach you how to sing Baby Shark dooo doo doo with actions Teacher Dianne taught us. Pero mas funny actions tinuro ni Tito Ninong Jerald. I will teach that to you also. We will sing together ok? I can't wait to see you baby. I love you. "
Then he kissed my tummy. Awww, my baby Faulky is the sweetest.
That's why I am anxious to know why his teacher called us yesterday because she wanted to discuss something Faulky did.
Kahapon pa lang gusto ko na sumugod sa school nila, pero pinigilan lang ako ni Richard. I wanted to go with him today but he said he can handle it alone. Baka daw ma-stress lang ako. As if di ako mase-stress habang hinihintay ko silang mag-ama.
My baby is the sweetest and well-behaved and a very happy kid. I'm really, pretty sure di sya nang-away ng classmates nya or something like that.
"Sige na baby boy, go get fresh clothes para mabihisan na kita."
"No, Daddy. Faulky is big boy na. I can change clothes myself. Tinuruan po ako ni Mommy."
"Talaga? Very good naman baby boy ko. O sige, bihis ka na para makakain na tayo."
"Ok po."
As soon as I saw Faulky enter his room, I cornered Richard.
"Ano daw, Love? Bakit tayo gustong kausapin ng teacher nya? I'm sure simple misunderstanding lang yan because I'm sure di magagawa makipag-away ni Faulky because our son is a good kid and very friendly to his classmates di ba nga nagpa-bake pa sya ng cupcakes last week para ibigay---"
"Whoah, sandali lang, Love. Breathe. Kaya ayaw kitang isama eh, tignan mo naha-hyper ka. Baka kung ano pa mangyari sa inyo ni baby."
"Eh ano nga kasi, Richard Faulkerson, Jr?! Bakit tayo pinatawag ng teacher ni Faulky?!"
"Love, kalma lang! Bawal sa yo ang ma-stress. Tignan mo, may nakalimutan ka tuloy gawin. Malapit na ko magtampo."
"Ha? Ano yun?"
He pointed at his lips then pouted.
Oh no, muntik ko pa makalimutan ang isa ko pang baby.
"Aww, sorry Love. I forgot to kiss you."
"Ok lang. Pwede ka naman bumawi...."
Then he gave me that smirk. Yung smirk na magbibigay ng 25 drops or approximately 1.25 milliliters level of wetness kesehodang limang buwan na kong buntis. I'm sure, para na namang nag-shower si Pinky. Pwede na syang gumawa ng sarili nyang documentary: I, Wetness.
I cupped my husband's handsome face. He closed his eyes, anticipating for what I am about to do. So I showered his face with soft, sweet, feathery kisses...on his cheeks, jaw,eyes, forehead, nose, dimple, upper lip...
And for the finale, I gave him one long, lingering kiss on the lips. Na nauwi sa mini-makeout session.
We're both breathless when our lips parted.
"Love, as much as I want to devour you right now...baka makita tayo ni Faulky. Saka maawa ka kay Junjun, miss na miss pa naman nito si Pinky dahil split screen lang sila kaninang umaga."
"Don't worry, Love. Mamaya makakapaglaro na sila Junjun at Pinky ng Jakenpoy saka Hide and Seek."
"Promise yan ha? Sorry baby Princess, may activity uli sila Mommy and Daddy mamaya. Don't worry, I'll be gentle para di maistorbo pagtulog mo."
"Huy! Ikaw talaga puro ka kalokohan. Teka, balik tayo kay Faulky. Ano bang ginawa nya at gusto tayong kausapin ni Teacher Dianne? Di naman sya nang-away di ba?"
"Hindi nakipag-away si Faulky or may umaway sa kanya. Sabi nga ni Teacher Dianne, kasundo ni Faulky lahat ng classmates nya. Saka wala naman talaga ginawang misconduct si Faulky. Pinakita lang nya yung sagot ng anak natin sa activity nila kahapon."
"Ha? Bakit?"
"Naku, Love. Baka matawa ka na lang sa ginawa ng anak natin. Nung nakita ko, gusto ko gumulong kakatawa kung di ko lang kaharap teacher nya. Ang talino talaga ng anak natin, Love! Hahaha!"
"So ano nga?!"
"Heto."
Richard handed me a paper. It's from an activity they did yesterday where they are practicing to write words with letter "a" in the middle.
I checked the items one by one. So far, Faulky's answers were all correct.
Everything seems okay. I wonder what the fuss was about.
Then I gasp when I saw it.
"OH MY GOD!"
In my son's handwriting, the word is glaring at me. PENIS.
