Eiffel's PoV

It was Saturday and I already finished all the house chores and had nothing to do anymore so here I am reading a book in the living room.

I looked at the clock, its 2:00 o'clock in the afternoon at hindi parin lumalabas ng kuwarto niya si Kuya Clyde.

What could he be doing to be this busy?

Without second thinking, I went to the kitchen and prepared some refreshments and went to his room. I inhaled and exhaled saka dahan dahang kumatok.

"H-Hubby, can I come in?" tanong ko.

"Uh... Sige" narinig kong pahintulot niya at napangiti ako!

Pumasok ako sa kwarto niya at nadatnan ko siyang nakaupo sa study table niya at seryosong nakatutok sa libro niya habang nagsusulat.

"I-I brought you something to eat, kasi kanina ka pa hindi lumalabas" I indicated at inilapag ang tray nadaladala ko study table niya at iniabot ang juice sa kanya.

Kinuha nman niya ito at ininom, "Thanks. I was busy at di ko na namalayan ang oras" he stated

"Uhm..." hindi ko alam kung papaano ko siya tatanungin, baka isipin nia na mapaka chismosa ko.

"It's for my final exams" he answered after anticipating my possible question. Inunat niya ang dalawa niyang kamay at hinimas ang leeg niya.

"Hati kasi ang atensyon ko sa training ko para sa kompanya at sa klase ko. Though wala namang problema sa grades ko, there's this subject na nahihirapan ako and I hate it"

"What subject?" curious na tanong ko.

"No need to worry yourself about it Eiffel, I am an heir to our company and I'm confident I can handle my studies"

"I'm not worried at all, I just want to know if I can help you" nakangiting ani ko "I maybe only eleven but my lessons and education back in Britain is not to be little Hubby, what subject is it? Foreign Language? So far I can only speak 9 languages, French, Italian, Spanish, Nihongo, Mandarin, Greek, Russian, Portuguese and a little bit of Arabic. Sociology? In what branch? Sociometry, Sociocultural, Sociopolitics or Sociopyschological? I know a little bit of Humanities too. Could it be Math? Basic, Advance or college Algebra? Geometry, Calculus, or Trigonometry, Statistic? Or maybe-"

Bigla akong natigil nang tinakpan ni Kuya Clyde ang bibig ko gamit ang kamay niya.

"Stop, you're making my head hurt Eiffel, I'm trying to forget that you're a genius and have better brain than I am. But to answer your question it's History" masakit ang ulong sagot niya.

Nanlaki ang mata ko sa narinig ko!

"It's so boring at ang daming kailangang tandaan na taon at mga tao! Nakakainis! I excell at Math subjects and to my other major subject! Finance, marketing legal, management! Those are so easy! Hindi ko na kailangang pasukan pa ang mga yun because it's just a piece of cake for me! But this history! Huggghhh a fucking minor subject! What's the use of studying it? It already happened! It's all in the past kaya nga HISTORY! Ayaw mag move on!" litanya niya habang naiinis na kinakamot ang ulo niya"

I found it a bit amazing. I never saw this childish side of him.

Napansin niya atang nanahimik ako at biglang namula ang tenga niya "So there, alam mo na. No need to worry"
