I was stunned, to the point that I can't even utter a words. We both stare at each other. Nililipad pa ang ilang hibla ng buhok dahil sa simoy ng hangin, kailangan ko pang hawiin para maayos. The reflection of the sunset really compliment him when it directed to his face. His hair become messy because of the breeze.

"Tito Daddy!" I was back into my senses when kid's voice echoed in my ear. Naputol ang naging titigan namin na ipinagpasalamat ko dahil baka hindi ko makayanan ang ilang ko.

"Tito Daddy, carry me please!" Clyde didn't say any words at kinarga ang bata na abot tenga ang ngiti.

"Ahm... Thank you" he gave me a small smile, which I also gave him back.

"Mauna na ako—" I bid my goodbye, but before I could go, he hold my hand that made me stopped. Dumako ang paningin ko sa kamay ko na hawak niya. My heart beat so fast again and his touch give different electricity throughout my body, para ring kinikiliti ang tiyan ko sa kilig.

His hands was soft btw..

Parang natauhan siya at naramdaman niyang hindi ako komportable sa pagkakahawak niya sa kamay ko kaya binitawan niya.

"Miss Pretty, this is my Tito Daddy nga po pala" dumako ang paningin ko sa bata nang inosente itong magsalita, wasn't aware in the atmosphere between me and her Tito Daddy. Stupid me... Hindi nga pala alam ng bata.

I give her a small smile.


"Yes baby" I said awkwardly. My hand reach for her cheeks and pinch it that make her giggles.

"He's handsome po di'ba?" She said that made the atmosphere more awkward. I look at Clyde, he's smiling like a lunatic, hinihintay ang sagot ko. Oo, baby! Gwapo ang Tito mo! Sobra! Kaso paasa!

"Ahh..." The word I utter. I can't find a word to say dahil panigurado pag sasabihin kong oo lalaki naman ang ulo ng loko-loko.

"Right po?" She ask again.

"Yes baby. Kaso paasa!—" tinakpan ko agad ang bibig ko. Hindi ko alam bakit yun lumabas sa bibig ko! It was supposed to be just in my head!

I look at Clyde. Mas lalong lumaki ang ngisi niya! Naghahanap pa ako ng salita na pwedeng sabihin para hindi lumaki ang ulo niya but clumsy me! Nasabi ko pa talaga ang dapat nasa utak ko lang!

"Your pretty and he's handsome po so you're bagay!" Lord!! Alam ko pong masama pero pwede po ba manakal ng bata!?

Didn't she aware on what she's saying!? This kid is unbelievable!

Pati ba naman ang batang toh papaasahin ako sa wala!?

"Ahmm... Baby I need to go na" I said to escape her question.

Tatalikod na sana ako ng magsalita na naman siya. "Wait po! Answer me first po! You're bagay po di'ba?" She was smiling from ear to ear, tuwang-tuwa sa pinanggagawa niya. I look at Clyde to ask for help but instead of helping me to escape he's smirking, waiting for my answer.

Nakakaasar na!

"Yes baby, bagay kami. But you're Tito already had a wife and a baby like you so we're not"  the lasts words I said before leaving them. Mabilis ang lakad ko pabalik sa building para umuwi, binusenahan pa ako nang ibang mga sasakyan ng tumawid ako sa kalsada ng nakared-light, but I don't give a damn! I just want to go home!
