Imelda and Ferdinand put their children to sleep, natapos na ang kanilang simpleng kainan kasama ang mga bata na makukulit na nag aaway dahil yung dalawa gusto magpakarga sa daddy nila at dahil di na makarga ni Ferdinand ang mga anak niya, sinakyan nalang siya sa likod ng dalawa.
I thought mapapagod siya after makipaglaro sa mga bata but he excused himself sa akin at pumunta na sa opisina niya to work on something. Work, then only thing he have in mind, does he ever think of me? Alam ba niyang namimiss ko din siya at kailangan ko ang dating Ferdinand?
I can't demand time naman since he loves his job more before he even met me. He wanted to be more than a senator, he wanted to be the President of the country. Kaya ko ba maging first lady? Congressman and senator pa nga lang siya parang nalulula na ako sa dami ng tao lagi sa bahay, sa dami ng events.
I went down to fetch him on his office para matulog na kami. I took with me a glass of water dahil baka nauuwah yung isa. As I was walking down the hallway to his office wing, narinig ko naman ang tugtug na Love is here to Stay by Frank Sinatra from my husbands office. As long as I open the door, tumingin naman siya sa akin.
"Oh, is it time already?" tnaong niya, referrring to our bedtime.
"Almost..." I checked the clock.
"Hmm, you still have minutes left then aakyat na tayo." Sabi ko.
"Can I extend my time mahal, please?" makaawa niya.
"Parang kang si Imee at Bongbong pag papatulugin sa hapo, haha. No." sabi ko.
"Okay, nagbakasakali lang naman." He said then went back to work.
I sat sa may couch and then pinagmasdan siya na nagtatrabaho.
It's been 7 years since Ferdinand and I got married. and I've come to a realization that the man I married into is a very brilliant man. A man who never miss any birthday or anniversary in his life because he remembers everything and anything, even though he's been busy with work. But God, what a disadvantage to be married to him. He knows when my period starts and end, anything personal about me, he knows. I think he already memorize the bible too, since he's been reading it on his free time. The holy rosary, he'd memorized it too. even the words or phrases i said way way back, alam niya. this man has a great memory.
Di ko naman napansin na napatitig na ako sa kanya, I shook my head then nakita ko naman ang camera sa may table katabi ng couch at kinuha ko. Kinulikot ko naman and tinutok ko sa asawa ko na nagtatrabaho pa den.

Di pa rin niya ako pinapansin. Pogi rin pala nitong lalaking to lalo na kapag nagtatrabaho. I was looking at the film sa may small light niya. Nagulat nalang ako ng bigla siyang magsalita.
"Am I that handsome to you, darling?" tanong niya with his boyish grin. I just rolled my eyes at him.
"Aminin mo na kasi na ang pogi ko." Sabi niya ulit.
