The race did not take long to get underway with the first relay of parents and when the whistle blew, Estrella Berrocal saw Adán Rouco catch up with Montrelle Herran, leaving the other parents on the track behind and both handed over the baton to their children almost at the same time.
On the track, Paulita took the baton and ran forward on short legs to the finish line, her little face full of stubbornness and defiance.
Angelo Herran grunted softly as he ran over and looked at Paulita at his side.
Is Paula Rouco so eager to run first?
Angelo Herran ran first, but caught a glimpse of Paulita behind him and felt uncomfortable with the situation.
If he runs first, the little crybaby will cry again!
Angelo Herran shook his head, forget it, let’s give him first place!
Mom was right, a man has to give in to a girl.
Paulita caught a glimpse of Angelo Herran in front of her and immediately gave chase, and when she reached the finish line, the young woman was delighted.
Yes! He finally got past that parasite Angelo Herran!
Offstage, the two parents looked on in amazement.
Montrelle Herran narrowed her dark eyes, “My son seems to like your daughter.”
Adán Rouco was a bit smug: “Yes, my daughter is very attractive”.
Montrelle Herran grunted lightly, “Deuces.”
When Paulita came running up, she rushed into Adán Rouco’s arms, “Dad, I came first! I’m great!”
The little boy narrowed his big eyes and wrapped his arms around Adam Rouco’s neck, running around with a little pride in his little red face.
Adán Rouco looked down and kissed his daughter’s face: “Our Paulita is the best”.
As Angelo Herran approached, Montrelle Herran looked sideways at his son and said in a light voice, “Next time you lose to class, will the girl appreciate you letting her get away like that?”
Angelo Herran: “…”
Dad can see that!
Montrelle Herran walked up to the bleachers with his long legs and Angelo Herran ran to follow him, “Dad, how did you get my mother back in the day?”
It’s been three years since we got married and mom still looks at dad like an adoring, pink-eyed teenager! He’s so good at getting girls!
Montrelle Herran looked at her son, “Do you want to know?”
Angelo Herran nods thoughtfully.
A deep, calculating look crept into Montrelle Herran’s eyes, “Don’t knock on our bedroom door at night again for a month, and I’ll tell you.”
Angelo Herran: …
Does Dad really think he’s a child who doesn’t understand?
Every night mom and dad make little brothers behind their backs.
If his little brother and sister were to come out in the open, wouldn’t he lose their favor?
No, now that his little brother and sister haven’t come out yet, he doesn’t even have much of a foot in front of his dad, so when they do come out, he won’t have to put even more up against the wall!
“If you don’t tell, you don’t tell, eh, I’ll ask mom!”
With his handsome face raised, Angelo Herran ran into the stands.
Estrella Berrocal and Claudio Belles wiped the two children with tissues as they watched them sweat from running.
Adán Rouco also bowed, with slender fingers, pointing to his forehead: “Mrs. Rouco, I’m sweating too”.
Estrella Berrocal swept his forehead: “No need to sweat”.
Adán Rouco grabbed his little hand directly from the handkerchief he was holding in his hand: “Who says you’re not sweating”.
Estrella Berrocal had no choice but to clean it.
This man, not like Paulita, is so great.
Montrelle Herran also approached Claudio Belles: “Honey, I’m sweating too”.
Claudio Belles: …
These two men, what a mess.
…
The two families took their two young children and went out to eat together.
The first thing the adults do is, of course, ask the children what they would like to eat.
Angelo Herran kept quiet and ceded the initiative to Paulita.
With a wide-eyed look on her face, Paulita quietly and suddenly leaned into Angelo Herran’s ear and whispered, “Gee, I want Kentucky Fried Chicken but my daddy won’t let me have it, do you want Kentucky Fried Chicken?”
Angelo Herran frowned slightly, what good is that fast food crap like Kentucky Fried Chicken!
However, when the words came out of his mouth, Angelo Herran said to the adults, “Mom, Dad, Uncle Adam, Aunt Star, let’s go to Kentucky Fried Chicken! I really want to eat Kentucky Fried Chicken.”
Paulita is secretly happy.
Four adults with two young children went to Kentucky Fried Chicken.
Find a large table and sit down.
Estrella Berrocal stayed behind to take care of the two children while the other three adults went to order and serve the food.
With a playful smile, Estrella Berrocal said, “Paulita, it was actually you who told Brother Angelo you wanted Kentucky Fried Chicken, wasn’t it?”
“Angelo Herran wants to eat Kentucky Fried Chicken too!” asked Paulita to Angelo Herran, who was sitting across from her, with a little pout.
Angelo Herran turned his little face away haughtily, “Who likes Kentucky Fried Chicken?”
Estrella Berrocal looks at the two children, with affection, and rejoices in her heart.
By the time the other three adults brought the food, there was a table full of hamburgers and wings and spicy chicken thighs, mashed potatoes, ice cream, all the kids’ favorites.
After all, Kentucky Fried Chicken is fast food that’s kind of good and anyone would want to eat it.
Paulita asked for ketchup and Estrella Berrocal opened a ketchup packet and gave it to the little boy, who looked adorable as he nibbled on his fries and smeared the red ketchup in his mouth.
Angelo Herrán began to mock her again, “Hahahahahahahahahahaha Paula Rouco you look in the mirror fast!”.
Paulita frowned a little and glanced at the interface of Adán Rouco’s cell phone on the table, smeared with ketchup, the little girl became anxious, “Star, mouth …. clean it up!”
Estrella Berrocal wiped the little boy with a wet wipe and he stuck out his tongue to lick the ketchup from his mouth.
Estrella Berrocal had just wiped Paulita’s mouth when Angelo Herrán suddenly squeezed some tomato sauce into his hand and smeared it on Paulita’s white face.
“Hahahahahahahaha you’re back to being Dirty Paula Rouco!”
Paulita growled, “No more playing games with you!”
After the two kids had a good fight and a good meal, they went to the slide inside Kentucky Fried Chicken to play.
There are no afternoon classes for the children and the morning is over after the sports day.
In the afternoon, we passed the entrance to the University of the Holy City and had nothing to do, and it was Estrella Berrocal’s alma mater, so the four of us adults took the two children for a walk inside the university.
Inside the university, the smell of early summer is especially strong, with the shade of the green trees lining the campus and the sound of the ball and cheers coming from the basketball court next door.
It is a woman’s nature to like to look at handsome men, especially those who play basketball.
Estrella Berrocal and Claudio Belles with Paulita, three girls, with their hands on the barbed wire fence of the basketball court, looking through it at the handsome men playing on the basketball court.
Paulita: “Wow! Star! Look how handsome that big brother is”.
Estrella Berrocal: “Claudio, do you think the boy who scored looks like the former schoolboy from our school?”
Claudio Belles: “Holy cow, he really looks it! So handsome!”
Behind them stood two large men and a small one, who looked at them with an expression of astonishment.
Angelo Herran took a curious look at the men on the basketball court and said, “Dad, Uncle Adam, I don’t think those men are as handsome as the three of us!”
Montrelle Herran looked at the excited woman gathered around the basketball court with a twinkle in her eye, “Your mother’s nymphomania is back and needs to be cured.”
Adán Rouco’s cold face: “These on the basketball court, terrible ball skills and ugly posture”.
Montrelle Herran: “Okay”.
