Someone POV

Flashback... 

I was playing gleefully on my toys when a knocked came out. Tamad ko iyong binuksan at bumungad ang nakangiting si mommy. I smiled sweetly as she carefully walked in front of me. My mom herself is pregnant right now. I don't know how months her baby is. Just that mommy and daddy told me about it last month. I'm happy knowing that it's my dream, to have a brother/sister and protect her/his nearly loomed in the future. My classmates told me that having a brother or sister is really enjoying at the same time fulfilling.

Gusto ko ring maranasan ang sinasabi nila. I want to experience spending time playing around with him/her. I promised to myself when the time she/he will born in this world, I will be the best kuya in the whole world. I'll precious her/him and makes what ever he/she wanted.

"Why mommy?" I asked. Lalo siyang ngumiti kaya napakunot noo ako.

"Fix yourself we have a surprise for you sweetie." Dali dali akong nag ayos at bumaba. Gusto ko ng malaman ang kung ano ang sorpresa nila sa'kin.

Ano kaya iyon?

"Where are we going mommy?" Out of curiosity, I asked. Hindi na ako makapaghintay na malaman. "It's a secret sweetie." Then I heard mommy silently giggled.

"Can you tell it to me right now? I can't wait for it." Pati si daddy natawa dahil sa inasal ko. Nakasimangot kasi ako sa kanila dahil hindi ako makapaghintay.

"No sweetie. Don't be so impatient, okay?" Sige na nga. Tumango na lang ako at nagmadaling hilain sila papunta sa sasakyan namin.

"You don't looked impatient." Naiiling na usal ni daddy sa'kin. Lalong natawa si mommy dahil sa inasal ko. Habang masaya kaming nagkukwentuhan sa kalagitnaan ng aming byahe ay malakas na sunod sunod na kalabog ang aming narinig.

"Oh my gawd! Honey what's goin' on?" Sobrang kaba ang bumalot sa napakahinhin na boses ng mommy ko.

"Sssh... Calm down honey. I'll protect our family." Madilim na sambit ni daddy.
