All I Ask
"I will always be with you, and Eros Alba. I will never leave."
"Promise, Papa?"
"I promise." Alba kissed my cheeks. Si Eros ay nakatingin lang sa amin tapos ay tumalon.
"Every Christmas, Papa and my birthday too!"
"When is your birthday, Kiddo?" I asked Eros.
"I dunno. Momma just tell me that it's my birthday. She wakes me up with chocolate chip pancakes with candle on top and she'll sing happy birthday with Ate. But I dunno." He shrugged.
"His birthday is on the 12th of October, Papa. He's turning seven next year."
