Soulful Eyes (book 2, Missing Piece adaptation)

Chapter 70

Day after Cait and Caleb's discharge

BEATRIZ

Buti nalang nabenta ko na agad yung watch ko pero prinesyuhan lang ng 400k which is supposed to be 485k. Pumayag nalang ako since I really need money

I'm at the mall buying baby stuff for my son, though may mga kaunting binili na sila tita pero gusto ko may galing din sa'kin

Upon looking at the prices, I sighed

If only I have money anak, I would've bought everything for you. Pero sa ngayon isa-isa muna. With Caleb's stuff I spent 26k. Napunta lang yun sa crib, stroller, clothes and bottles niya

Next, I went to the department store to buy personal stuff. I chose to go there instead of the usual stores where Jho always buys me clothes because it's cheaper in the department store

"I need to make kasya of my 5k"

Unfortunately, kulang na kulang yung budget ko kaya 2pairs of pambahay, 1 pair of panlabas, underclothes, and hygiene stuffs lang nabili ko for myself

CAITLIN

Bea arrives with a smile on her face. Ang saya niyang inuwi yung mga binili niya for Caleb

"Bea, andami naman neto?"

"It's of course for Caleb hehe. Hello my little boy" Bea sabay gentle na hawak sa tiny hand ni Caleb na ngayo'y karga ko

"Oh Bea? Ano mga 'to?" mama

"Ow, it's all for Caleb tita" Bea

"Nako andami naman" mama

"Uhhh hehe tita, saan po ba pwedeng ilagay yung crib ni Caleb?" Bea

"Ah sa kwarto ko nalang, Bea" sabi ko

"Ok, don ko nalang to ibuild" Bea

THIRD PERSON

Natapos nang iassemble ni Bea yung crib ni Caleb

"How is it?" Bea shows Caitlin what she built

"Wow galing ah hehe" Caitlin

"Wait wait I'll get our cutie patotie" Bea

Maingat na kinarga ni Bea ang natutulog na Caleb sa bed ni Caitlin then transferred Caleb to his new crib

"There, hehe you look like me talaga noh? Skin palang oh mana na sa'kin, unlike your mommy" Bea staring at sleeping Caleb

"Bastos haha" Cait

Bea laughs, and it slowly disappears when she realizes something

"Haaay parang nawawala lahat ng problema ko pag nakikita ko baby Caleb ko" Bea

"Nakaka inspire mabuhay noh?" Caitlin chuckled

"Sinabi mo pa. But Cait, thank you, really. Thank you for bringing Caleb" Bea

Caitlin smiles

"And ow, before I forgot. Uhmm what are Caleb's essentials na? Yung soap and other things na kailangang bilhin na sinabi ng pedia? I'll buy it before I leave. Gusto ko pa sana mag stay pero gagabihin na kasi ako masyado" Bea

"Naka lista yun sa note ko, bigay ko sa'yo mamaya. At saka, Bea, hindi na ba talaga kita mapipilit na dito ka nalang samin?" Cait

"Gabi lang naman ako mawawala dito eh. I'm here naman all day" Bea
