Chapter 22

Sophia is wide awake as she looks out the window. She is fascinated by the things she has seen. She is still a baby and unique things catch her interest.

"Wow! Mommy, look! Bwig buildings! Tall! Bwig!"

She excitedly spread her arms to show how big the buildings outside were.

She thought our apartment building was already big. But the gigantic structures she found are much bigger than the apartment. She felt that her understanding of the world is expanding.

"Wow~ Bwother! Big faces!"

She said, pointing at the billboards that had the faces of models.

"Hm."

Roman nodded and looked around as well. The children never went on a long trip for years, especially Sophia . So they were excited to see new scenes.

Unfortunately, the two kids lost interest as soon as they saw one infrastructure after another. The novelty faded quickly. Then they got bored and looked at their mother.

"Mom, are we there yet?"

Sophia asked. She didn't like to stay in the same position for too long. She wanted to crawl and move. But the bus is different, we don't dare let her lie on the floor.

The bus stops and moves every two minutes and it is dangerous for the children.

"Honey, you don't have to worry. You just need to close your eyes for ten seconds and we will get there."

Penelope teased baby Sophia's nose.

"Really?"

"I'm telling the truth."

Sophia seemed to believe her mother easily. She closed her eyes and counted from one to ten.

I can't believe my daughter can count from 1 to 10 when she's not even two years old! My daughter is a genius!

When she opened her eyes, she looked around. She was confused at first, but then she realized that her mother was playing with her.

"Mommy, bad."

"I wasn't lying, you just have to count from 1 to 10 twenty times."

"Mommy, I can't do it."

She pouted.

"It's okay sweetie, you can do it when you get older."

She stroked little Sophia's head and the baby nodded reluctantly. She was bored and wanted to move around.

"How about sitting with me, Sophia?"

I can see that my wife is uncomfortable. Because Sophia was flattening her legs with her weight. Our baby is getting heavy.

"En."

Sophia was bored anyway, so she decided to change places.

"Are you sure you can do it? You will carry the bags later."

Penelope asked worriedly.

"I'm fine. I feel like I never get tired. I can carry you if you want."

It's no problem. Besides, I can touch her ass if I carry her...

"Huh! Arrogant."

We both laughed.

But I'm not kidding. I can run around all day and not get tired. The Energy Pill gave me the stamina to stay strong all day.

This is a drug made by the system. I think there are no side effects, right?

[System remarks: Energy Pill is safe to take. No negative effects. Can be taken every day].

Nice.

Who doesn't like endless energy?

Not me. Not Elon Musk.

Penelope put Sophia on my lap instead. My wife took a breather after putting her daughter on my legs. Her legs went numb as she stretched them. She hissed after a nice stretch. Sophia is indeed getting heavier.

"Dajjy, when will I see the ocean?"

"Later, sweetie, you will see the blue sea."

I calm her burning enthusiasm. My wife's province was Dagupan, Pangasinan and it faced the sea. The main producer of milkfish in the region.

My wife told stories about her hometown and Sophia was excited to see it. Unlike Roman, who had visited the province before, this was little Sophia's first long trip.

"But I want to see it now. I want to!!"

As expected from a child, she was acting like a spoiled brat. Very unreasonable. Children are angels and devils at the same time, and it's hard to change my mind.

"Sophia, how about this, when we get there, I will buy you a toy. But you have to behave, can you promise Daddy that you will be a good girl?"

The best way to pacify a child is to give her what she likes. In Sophia's situation, she wants dolls.

"What do you think? You want toys, right? I'm sure Barbie needs a friend. What's your new toy's name again?"

"Her name is Aria. She is a pwincess from a faraway land."

"I see. Then Aria must be lonely because she needs a friend. Maybe you can help her."

"Yes. I want to give her fwiend Dajjy."

"Of course, my little princess is a good girl. But I can only give you another Barbie doll if you behave, promise?"

If we are talking about money. I have 9,000 pesos in my wallet, so buying another toy is not a problem.

As for the other 10,000, it's in my wife's hands. We made sure to split the money in case of robbery.

After what happened last month, when I almost lost my life in a carjacking, my wife and I became aware of the bad elements. It's better to be prepared than to lose all the money.

"Yes! I pwomise! I'll be a good girl."

"As expected from my little princess."

I patted her head and she giggled. She hugged me, but her small arms could only hug my chest.

Penelope looked at us and nodded. She seemed to like the way I was making our daughter behave.

"Yay! New toy."

"What about me?"

Then Roman joined in and looked at me. He wanted another toy, too.

"If you behave, I will buy you a toy too."

"Okay."

A few hours later, I could feel the kids getting restless.

Fortunately, whenever I feel that they are about to crack, I use my trump card to calm them down.

"Kids, remember, you can only have toys if you behave."

When I say this, the two children immediately shut their mouths and hold on. They sat still and made no noise.

Thank God...

Unfortunately, a piercing scream disturbed my wife and me.
