"Israela Bailey is the cake ready?" I asked my five year old daughter who was busy kanina, baking the cake kasama ang cook ng bahay to guide her. Yep she loves to bake. Talent niya ang pagbebake.
Ngumiti siya nang pagka-tamis tamis kahit na may mga powder pa siya sa mukha at chocolate.
"Mommy lowew down youw voice, Dada might heaw." She even put her index finger to her small lips.
"Okay sweetie, I'm sorry." I whispered at tumawa nalang ng mahina.
Nagpre-prepare naman ako ng kakainin namin. Napatingin naman ako sa likod when someone hugs me.
Napangiti nalang ako. Our prince just woke up. "Good morning, baby." Niyakap ko siya at hinalikan sa pisngi.
"Mom, I'm not baby anymore " pagsusungit niya. Tumawa nalang ulit ko ng mahina. Nako, he's still my baby. They still are.
"Bakit Jyeov Israel may crush ka na ba?" I asked, teasing him.
"None." Tipid niyang sagot. Manang mana talaga sa ama. Ang sungit.
"Coz you're still a baby that's why. Huwag muna alright? Don't grow up too fast." I pinched his rosy cheeks.
Ang laki na nila pareho.
"Mom I'm not a baby anymore," ulit niya. "Stop calling me that." Niyakap ko nalang ulit siya. Baka magwalk-out eh. Nako pitong taon palang naman siya.
"Fine. Baby." Sumimangot siya.
"Mommy let's go to Dada." Israela said.
Tumango ako at lumapit sa kanya para dalhin ang cake na binake niya kanina. It's a half vanilla mango peach and half black forest flavored cake. Kung paano niya nagawa ito ay hindi ko na alam. My baby is good.
"Great job, Israela." Komento ko.
"Thank you, Mommy."
"Jyeov get the party popper please," tas nginuso ko yung nasa upuan.
"Okay let's go." Sabay sabay kaming umakyat papunta sa kwarto habang dala dala ko ang cake. 7 am palang ng umaga, at dahil late umuwi kagabi si Jyeo because of work he's still sleeping in our room. Mabuti nalang at Sunday ngayon.
Binuksan ni Jyeov ang pinto at kompirmadong tulog pa siya.
Israela is giggling. Tumakbo siya papalapit kay Jyeo and tried to wake him up.
Kumindat naman ako kay Jyeov and we started to sing.
"Dada wake up!" Hinahampas na siya ng unan ni Israela pero hindi pa nagigising ang kanilang Dada. Di nagtagal ay tumawa naman si Jyeo and pulled Israela to hug her at kiniliti.
"Happy birthday, Happy birthday... Happy birthday to you..."
Tumingin siya sa amin at ngumiti. Damn he looks so good kahit bagong gising. Naghuramentado ang puso ko. Hindi pa rin talaga ako sanay na ganyan siya ka-hot lagi kahit bagong gising.
I smiled at him too.
"Happy Birthday!" Sigaw namin kasabay non ang pag-ulan ng confetti dahil sa party popper.
"Aww this is so sweet. Thank you."
"Happy Biwthday Dada! I love you." Israela greeted. Hinalikan siya ni Jyeo sa pisngi. "Thank you, sweetheart. I love you too."
"Happy Birthday Dad." Jyeov greeted. Niyakap siya ng kanyang ama. "Thanks, son."
And then he looked at me, beaming. "Happy Birthday." Simple kong sabi tapos ngumiti.
