“Mommy, ayos ka lang po ba riyan?” pag-uulit ni Nicho sa ‘kin. Mahina akong natawa sa kanyang makulit na tanong. Vacation na kasi nila ngayon at kinukulit niya ako tungkol sa pagpunta rito. He wants to come here because he misses me. Ako rin naman. Sobrang miss ko na siya. Gusto ko na siyang makita
