-Maine-
It's Yyo's 15th month today! At nasa shoot ang magaling na ama 😒.
Tito Ricky and Rizza are out of town for business orientations and Yyo's Yaya is in vacation so I volunteered to Babysit today. Since Im free after EB.
" Nasa bag na lahat ng gamit nya. And please, No sweets, Mommy Maine?"
Rj said as he enumerate the long list of do's and dont's. Hay, this Daddy is just so praning.
" Kelan ko pa pinakain ng candy si Yyo?"
" Sinubuan mo sya ng chocolate kahapon when Im not looking."
" Galing sayo yung chocolate!"
" Its for you, not for Yyo."
" Ikaw nga tong nagpakain ng ice cream last week."
" Oo na. And dont let him charm you okay? Pag nap time, nap time."
" Amy!!!"- Yyo
I goy Yyo from him and gave Kuya Mike his baby bag.
" Late kana. I know what to do with Yyo. Go. Dadaan lang kami sa mall to celebrate."
Rj pouted. Inaasar ko sya for missing to vacate his sched for today. This is the first time that he will work the whole day while its Yyo's monthly birthday.
" Bawi ka nalang later kay Yyo."
" Babawi ako sa inyo mamaya, just have fun muna. Okay?"
He kiss Yyo goodbye and gave me a buss in the cheek before going out.
Where exclusively dating for two months now and I can say that, he is indeed different now. His priorities changed. And can I just say, he always include me when it comes to Yyo? 'Babawi ako sa inyo', 'Sama kayo' . Those small things are big for me.
And I love how he use on calling me Mommy Maine, he rarely calls me by may nickname, except when we're with my family. Nahihiya siguro, but may family loves Yyo. They adore him just like how they are with my niece and nephew.
Its still early and Im craving for ramen so, I decided to take Yyo with me to the mall after dropping my things to the condo. I let my driver call it a day already and just book a grab.
People are getting use to see me with a kid. Thou, they dont know who's Yyo is. Some assumes I adpoted him, some says He's a kept child of me and my ex. And some knew it was Rj's son. But we kept mum about it. Rj wants Yyo out of the lime light. Some fans will go to me and ask pictures, then ask who's Yyo is, I just smiled and say straight that 'bawal sya picturan,please?'
After having our Ramen, yes, OUR because Yyo just love it too! Thou, sabaw lang sa kanya. He even love it a little spicy kahit namumula mula na sya. I decided to bring him to kidzoona so we can play a little before his nap time.
I was just filling up the form when Yyo run away giggling! Binaba ko kasi sya dahil inaagaw nya ang ballpen.
I run after him, pero bago ko sya maabutan, he stumble to this man standing in the middle of the way.
I saw him help Yyo stand. At doon ko lang nakita kung sino sya.
Arjo: Hey, little guy.
Maine: Yyo!
Arjo straighten as Yyo walk towards me, smiling.
Maine: Why did you run? Ikaw talaga.
I was about to walk back kidzoona when he grab my arm.
Arjo: Maine wait-
Hinaram ko ulit sya at sinenyasan na bitawan ako but he just held me on both arms.
Arjo: Can we talk?
Yyo: No!!!
Yyo push him away and had his litte arms around my neck. Binitawan naman nya ko agad when Yyo push him.
Maine: About what? And Im busy. You see, I have a date. (looks at Yyo, smiling.)
Arjo: Really, Maine?
Maine: What?
Arjo: Paninindigan mo talaga yan? He's not even your real son!
Maine: Wag kang gumawa ng eksena.
Arjo: Why? You dont want them to know?!
I was alarmed when he started to raise his voice.
Maine: Excuse me, I dont have to explain anything to you. Just leave me alone.
Tatalikod na sana ako ulit ng bigla nyang hablutin ang braso ko para humarap kami ulit sa kanya.
And the next thing he did shock the hell out of me!
He kissed me! Infront of everyone in the mall! Infront of Yyo!
I froze! But I have my back up in my arms, In my state of shock, I saw how Yyo's little fist forcefully punch on Arjo's left eye causing him to step back cursing while holding his eye.
Yyo: Nooooo! no!!!!!!!
Natauhan lang ako ng marinig ko ang sigaw ni Yyo. Lalapit sana ulit si Arjo samin but I was quick to slap him.
Nanginginig ako sa galit! That was out of the line already! He just kiss me, infront of everyone! And I feel so disgusted!
Na-alarma na and mga securities and escorted us to the Mall's admin office. He was silent all the time while I ranted in so much anger.
30 minutes later, may Tatay came. We made agreement to the mall but I want to request for a restraining order so Arjo can go near me again. The management of the mall promised to give supporting statements when I needed.
" Ang dami na agad nag upload ng mga litrato nyo sa social media."
Said Tatay as he drove us to my condo.
" Hayaan nalang po Tatay. Alam naman natin ang totoo. "
" Natawagan o natext mo na ba si Rj?"
" Hindi pa po, pero baka pasundo na din yon kay Yyo maya-maya. Sasabihin ko nalang."
When Tatay left the condo, 30 minutes later Rj came.
We're both silent as we watch Yyo sleep on his playpen.
Alam kong nakita na nya ang mga pictures that circulating the net.
" So, ahm..-"
Before he even say a proper word, I cut him out and tell him what happened.
" Why didnt you tell me he's bothering you?"
" Okay namna sya nung una. This past weeks lang naman naging, I dont know, desperate?"
" Did you seek legal advice already?"
" Yes kanina. Bukas lalabas ung order ng korte."
" Good."
" Nagbasa kana sa twitter? IG?"
" Yes. Anak nyo daw si Yyo, Away mag asawa, and such."
" Sorry."
" Dont be. "
" Hindi ko nalang ilalabas si Yyo. "
" Mommy Maine, its okay. Dont worry to much okay?"
" I worry that You would believe theit make up stories! I dont want to loose you again, Rj. "
" Menggay, were old enough and we knew better now than before okay?"
" He kissed me Rj. Nandidiri ako sa sarili ko.."
I said softly, remembering what happened lately. I was about to say something because he went silent but when I look at him, he cup my face and kiss me full on the lips!
