Loving You is ...

Ch.27 : The Sick Baby

Author's POV

Six months later...

It's almost new year. School is on holiday. So, Gulf and Win stay at home. But, the daddy can't be at home as often as them, because his patients is waiting. When Mew isn't too busy, Gulf and Win will visit him and deliver cakes, cookies, or food they make at home. However, after almost a year of that incident, Gulf still doesn't want to drive. He indeed makes some progress, but for being on driver's seat again is really hard for him.

On one fine day, both mother and son bring Chopper to pet salon near mall. They need to take care about little Chopper's fur. Also, they have to buy new clothes for one-year-old Chopper. It grows really fast. Even his gifts from his birthday party don't fit him anymore. After Gulf and Win drop Chopper, they immediately go to the mall. 

Gulf's POV

We enter the mall. We gasp. This feels like heaven after the hot weather. It's really hot these days. Even now is just 10 in the morning. My baby holds my hand tightly like usual. Then, our shopping day begins.

The first store we visit is ice cream shop. I need to cool down my head. I get headache easily recently. Maybe it's because of hot surrounding. I order our ice cream. We take a seat after paying. After that, I put the bib on him and give him water first. In no minute, the waitress delivers our ice creams. Chocolate ice cream is for me while my baby chooses strawberry ice cream. Win cheers happily when his delicious ice cream is served in front of him. I hand the spoon to him. He immediately devours his dessert. 

Half hour later, both of us have finished our ice cream. I chuckle. My baby is completely in mess. He giggles at me. His strawberry ice cream smears until his cheeks. His hands is really sticky too. I take out wet wipes from my bag.

"What does momo's baby want to do after this?", I ask as I wipe his small palms.

"Payinggggg! (Playinggggg!)"

As his wish, we go to playground. Sometimes, having a baby gives me some benefits. I can enter playground too with my baby. Hahaha! I buy the ticket and we play inside ball pool. It's really fun. I ride the slide with Win. We do it again and again until we are tired. Sadly, we can't play too long as it's almost lunch time and I'm really hungry. Win sulks at first. But, when I say we will eat on his favorite place, he agrees in seconds. So, we leave the ball pool and go having our lunch.

Today is really tiring day. We finally arrive at home safely. Do you know? I and Win did many things. We didn't only buy Chopper's clothes, but we bought family t-shirt. Each shirts has its own words. 'Mama' for me, 'Papa' for khun phi, 'Mama's Boy' for baby Win, 'Papa's Boy' for little Chopper. It's cute, right? I can't wait to show this cutie tees to my hubby. I take a photo of them. A moment later, literally seconds later, reality hits me hard. Sigh... He won't be able to go home today. His hospital got many patients from school bus accident. I pout. I really miss him.

I do my duty. I bathe the baby, make dinner, and change little Chopper's clothe. Mentioning it is literally easy, but doing it is really the opposite. But, my ability to take care of them is much better than before. I don't burn pan anymore. I even make cute-shaped food now. It makes me chuckle when I remember how chaotic it was at first. I almost give up, especially when khun phi isn't home. But, these two troublemakers drive away my tiredness.
