Alexa: (kiss kay Agot) mommy.

Agot: (hug Alexa) I miss you today.

Alexa: (kumawala sa embrace ni Agot and then kiss Albert sa cheeks) hi dad!

Albert: (kiss Alexa sa head) hi Alexa.

Agot: (apuhap likod ni Alexa) how's school?

Albert: do you want us to have early dinner before going home?

Alexa: (smile brightly) sure dad.

Albert: then let's go! (Open the door of the car then pinasakay si Alexa then help Agot sumakay)

Agot: (carefully climb up the vehicle para hindi masyado magalaw sugat niya)

Albert: (nang makita na maayos na nakasakay Agot close the door then ikot sa kabila at sumakay na din katabi ni Alexa)

Alexa: where are we going?

Albert: I've reserved for us in a restaurant hoping you want to have dinner before going home so that's where we are going. Fancy eating some italian?

Alexa: I like that!

Agot: fave ni Alexa anything pasta kaya ganyan yan katuwa.

Albert: (smile) now I know.

Alexa: (face Albert) don't you like pasta?

Albert: I like any kind food so I guess I like pasta.

Alexa: great!

Nagkwentuhan sila habang papunta sa restaurant. Pagdating nila dun inasikaso sila agad at dinala sa table na pina reserve ni Albert.

After eating.

Albert: (face Alexa) we have something to tell you.

Alexa: ano po?

Albert: (hold Agot's hand na nasa table) your mom and I decided to marry. (Look at Agot)

Alexa: (look at Albert then Agot)

Agot: (look at Albert then Alexa then smile at her) we're going to be family.

Alexa: (look at Agot) are you okay with it?

Agot: of course.

Albert: it would be this weekend and then both of you are going to live in my house.

Alexa: that soon? (Look at Agot) are you pregnant?

Agot: no, I'm not pregnant Alex.

Albert: I just want us to be a real family agad kaya medyo madalian. It will just be a simple garden wedding at the house.

Alexa: will lolo and lola be there?

Albert: they will be invited.

Agot: you will finally have a dad you badly want.

Alexa: (look at Albert then smile) I like that.

Nag usap pa sila then umuwi na sila. Sa bahay sila ni Albert umuwi.

Albert: this is your room Alexa. Hope you like it. Anything you want to change just tell your mom and we will change it.

Alexa: (look around the room) sa kuripot ni mommy I doubt papayag siya may baguhin but I love the room dad!
