"Sha, Marie and I will go to the mall together to buy a gift for Mike, are you coming with us?" Kris told me. We're getting ready to go home, it's already Five in the afternoon time for the employees to go home. Mike has not returned after he leaves us in the cafeteria.
"Okay, I'll go with you for shopping, anyways, have you thought of what to buy for him?" I asked the two. As we walked towards the elevator.
"Nothing yet, I can't think of what is nice for him to give. How about you Kris? Did you have any idea in mind?" Marie spoke again.
"I still can't think what to give to him too, I'll see to it later when we reach there." Kris said immediately.
"I also have no idea, let's see later then." I also said to Marie and Kris.
The three of us entered the elevator when it opened.
We are still thinking about what to give as a gift to Mike. Even Mike is a simple guy, but obviously his clothes and accessories were all expensive.
WE are now in a men's section in a huge mall just near to the company where we work.
I suddenly thought "Hmm Marie, Kris what if we just combined the one we will give to Mike?" I suggest to them.
"What do you mean by that Sha?" Kris asked me.
"What I mean is, let's just choose an item then we divide the payment. If it's OK for you two, and we can save even more right?" I smiled and said to the two.
"I agree, that's a wise idea." They said together and smiled.
So a pair of short and a collar shirt wearing by mannequin caught our attention, and we looked at each other at the same time. We also looked at the mannequin too. So that's what we bought.
"Sha if it is ok with you, you go to the counter for the payment we will just go to the women's section." Kris told me.
"Okay, no worries, just go ahead, I'll just look something for Shawn too." I said and I went to the kids section which is connected only to the men's section, and chose for my son as well.
When I'm done, I immediately lined up at the counter to pay. There were four customers in front of me, I immediately took my wallet to get some cash.
'Oh the two have not given money yet, I don't have enough cash.' I just said softly to myself. And turned around to look for the two but I could not see them.
"Any problem Miss?" I heard a baroness of a man speaking behind me. I immediately turned to him with a smile, but I felt like I became like a mannequin because of what I saw. This man was so handsome, tall and masculine. In short, he looks like a Greek God. And his eyes, I suddenly felt nervous the way he looked at me. "Miss?" He spoke again to wake me up.
"N-NO Nothing" I stammered a bit to him and I turned to the cashier who was just looking and smiling at me. No not at me actually but to the person behind me.
"Three thousand two hundred pesos only ma'am." The cashier said to me with a smile. So I gave her my card, because I lacked cash.
"Lucky bastard." I heard the man behind me whisper. But I just ignored it and took what I bought. And leave. I can still feel the pair of eyes following me. Will, I can't blame him. With my looks, beauty and sexy body, it is not obvious that I already have a child.
My friends said that I look like a model. They said I'm so sexy and so hot, and sometimes they called me a hot mama. I immediately saw the two girls, so I approached them immediately.
"Let's go," I said to them.
"Let's have coffee first." Marie said. So we also went to a coffee shop just inside the mall.
We immediately ordered coffee and a slice of chocolate cake. I also ordered two more slices of chocolate cake for my son for take out. We took the tray of our orders, and went to the vacant table.
"Take out for Shawn." Marie smiled.
"Yeah" I just said.
"You really love him huh." Kris told me and she was also smiling.
"Of course, I love him so much. He's my everything, he is my life, my strength. And I'm so Blessed and Lucky to have Him. And I am so thankful too for coming Him into my life." My eyes were twinkling and shining when I told them that.
"We know right." They said together while laughing, so I also laughed with them too. We were still busy talking while eating our order. I felt something strange while I ate, like stares? Something like that. I suddenly thought of the man earlier in the mens section counter.
I just dismissed it in my mind and quickly ran out of my order. I immediately stood up too after, they even looked at me in shock.
"Sorry girls, I really need to go, it's already 6:30 pm. I can't stay any longer anymore, someone is waiting, you know. I'll go ahead see you two tomorrow." I smiled as I said goodbye to them while looking at the watch I was wearing. And I started walking out of the coffee shop.
"Wait for us Sha were done too will go with you!" The two chased after me.
"Sha are you ok? You look tense." Marie asked me worriedly.
"Yeah I'm ok, I just really need to go, no one is with my Shawn, my sister is going to work now." I just told them.
So we also got out together and went to wait for the ride. We have different ways. I was able to ride easily.
My son was still awake and watching a TV show in the living room when I got home.
"Hi mama good evening." He greeted me immediately and he kissed me.
"How was your day, baby?" I asked him but I was surprised when he frowned at me.
"Why baby, is there's something happen in here?" I gently asked my son but that made his face frown even more. So I was even more surprised by my son's behavior now.
"Mama how many times I told you, I'm not a baby anymore. And please don't call me baby." He said to me while pouting as he returned to the chair.
I just said "Oh" and smiled at what he said. He really doesn't want to be called a baby.
I hugged him tight and then kissed him on the head, "Sorry, my son is already a big boy and really doesn't want to be called a baby anymore. Mama is just caressing you, don't you want that huh?" I explained it to my son.
"I love you mama, and I'm sorry." He hugged my neck. I hugged him back.
"I have something for you." I whispered to him.
"What is it mama?" He looked up at me. I handed him the cake I had taken out.
"Wow, thank you mama." He immediately went to the kitchen, and when he came back the cake was already on the plate and he ate it.
I went into our room and took a towel to take a bath. I ate dinner first after I took a bath. Shawn already ate his dinner with her aunt before she left the house for work. She just left when I got home and shawn alone for just a few minutes only.
"Buddy let's go to sleep." I said to him, He immediately obeyed what I said and we entered our room to go to sleep.
"Goodnight mama I love you."
"Goodnight too, son, I love you too." I hugged him until we both fell asleep.
