"asan si Dawn?" tito asked when i sat down "naliligo na po" I smiled at them "hmmmm, you seem excited" Von narrowed his eyes at me "nako Von you don't know how competing makes him happy" mom said proudly. "Ah ganon pala ha, does that mean ate doesn't excite you" huli na nung na realize ni Von yung Sinabi niya kaming mga lalaki started laughing mom and tita gasped, Von immediately covered his mouth. "is your opening speech ready?" Dad glanced over me "yes po" I even gave him a thumbs up. "What are today's events?" Tita asked "today po kasi rowing and shooting" I placed some food on my plate "eat a lot ha" mama said "rowing and shooting, sus easy sakin" Von even actioned the sports "nako, sige eat a hearthy breakfast din like Richard Baka matalo ka" tito said
"oo na, eto na" Von rolled his eyes "hello everybody" Dawn was coming in to the dining table "oh wow, you're..... sporty" tita squinted. I looked over and well Dawn was wearing a white sleeveless polo and a matching white shorts. I don't want to laugh at her Pero biglang na choke si Von and tumawa "ate ano ba yan mukha ka namang muchacha" she looked at herself up and down "okay naman ah" Dawn pouted her lips. Gusto ko sanang sumama sa asaran kaso baka hindi ako I cheer ni Dawn mamaya eh so I did what any good husband would. I stood up and placed my hands on her shoulder "upo ka na, let's eat" I pushed her to a chair "di mo ako sasabayan sa pang aasar?" Von looked at me puzzled. I looked at him wide eyed and shook my head nakatingala na pala si Dawn "ano yun?" "wala eto naman" I smiled and pinched her cheeks
"under nga" Von muttered "sabi sayo eh" dad agreed, Wow hindi ko alam na binabackstab na pala ako ng mga to "hindi no" I exclaimed "sige nga kung hindi, asarin mo din si ate" he gave me wry smile. I looked at Dawn and she looked at me deadpan parang sinasabing sige subukan mo. Wala ako nagawa kundi ngumiti nalang and she nodded "oh buti alam mo" she said taking a bite. I scratched my head and tumawa mga tao sa table, Baka nga under ako, papayag ba ako? I looked at everyone on the table they were all having fun maybe because this is their last week here with us. The smile on Dawn's face is something I want to see everyday, to answer the question, Yes, papayag ako maging under if that makes her happy.
We're now in the van, naka convoy kami for our safety Nadin lalo na at alam kong marami padin pumapanig sa mga Amador dito. I was in the van with Von, Max, and Dawn, we let Max and Von sit in the first row Dawn and I seated at the back. The oldies are in another van with Allen, Dawn and I have been talking in the back "so pag natapos yung competition mo may free time ka na?" I wiggled my brows at her "bakit?" She cocked her head and narrowed her eyes at me "just asking if I can have you for a looooong time" I gestured "shhh" she covered my mouth. Buti nalang busy din yung dalawa sa harap "bakit?" I said laughing "you have me naman ah" she whispered and leaned to me "oo nga pero, I want to see you rest din" I cupped her chin
"hindi mo kasi ako pinapa rest" she pinched my cheeks "hindi yun" I said and she shook my head while pinching it "with work kasi" I caressed her hair and cupped her cheeks. She closed her eyes "I want to start a family soon" she suddenly opened her eyes and creased her forehead "oh, bakit ganyan reaction mo baka magka wrinkles ka love" I straightened her forehead "ikaw naman kasi eh binibigla mo ako" she hit me "why? what's wrong with what I want?" Inakbayan ko siya "isn't it too early?" I gasped "does that mean you're taking contraceptives every time we???" "huh?" She furrowed her brows "you know" I smirked "sira, hindi" she said. Nakahinga ako and sumandal sa upuan smiling alreay thinking of our future with our kids running around the house
