Adán Rouco raised an eyebrow at her comment.
Can’t you just look at it? You still want to like it? No window.
“Are they as handsome as I am?”
Estrella Berrocal fawned over him, hugging his neck from behind, her soft little face pressed against his handsome face, her big eyes narrowed as she said, “No, Mr. Adam is the handsomest.”
Adán Rouco hummed lightly, as if satisfied, and patted the back of her hand with his big hand: “Keep squeezing, it’s quite professional”.
Estrella Berrocal: “…”
Estrella Berrocal, while squeezing, remembered what Claudio Belles had said today and mentioned, “By the way, Claudio has a special affection for Paulita and today he proposed a doll marriage to me, wanting Paulita to be his daughter-in-law.”
Adán Rouco frowned slightly: “At what age are there still baby marriages?”.
Estrella Berrocal laughed out loud at his critical look, grabbing the man’s handsome face with both hands and squeezing it: “Don’t make that disgusted face, that Angelo boy is quite nice, maybe our Paulita likes him too. Maybe he likes her too. If not, they will spend two days playing together…”.
Adán Rouco’s heart was a little torn; the daughter he had raised for so long, saying she liked other boys….
Estrella Berrocal’s smile was accentuated by the fact that her frown could have killed a mosquito: “It looks like you’re afraid they’ll take Paulita away from you”.
In fact, Adán Rouco cares more about his daughter than the average father, not that other fathers don’t love their daughters, but because Paulita has been raised by Adán Rouco since she was born, Adán Rouco, the dad, is naturally more affectionate with Paulita.
“Paulita is too young to talk about it now.”
“I was joking about it, and Claudio was casually chatting about it. Who Paulita likes and who she wants to marry in the future will definitely have to be Paulita’s own wish.”
Adán Rouco stared at her smooth, white face and touched her belly with his big hand. “I’ll have to keep an eye on Paulita when she marries someone, if she’s not of good character, I’ll never accept her marrying him.”
Estrella Berrocal scoffed, “Your future son-in-law should be afraid of you, you are so strict, if you scare him away, no one will dare to marry our Paulita. ”
“Wouldn’t it be better if no one dared to marry and stay with us on their knees to be happy?”
Estrella Berrocal gave him a blank stare and muttered, “Then I’m sure Paulita hates you.”
Estrella Berrocal crawled into bed and curled up in the sheets to sleep, when the man behind her suddenly hugged her from behind, his hot breath spraying the back of her neck and his voice muffled, “Mrs. Rouco, Mr. Adán won first place in the race today and won the ball, shall we reward him?”
“…”
Estrella Berrocal reddened her ears, why is this man so childish now!
Adam Rouco’s eyes darkened as he stared at his red, droopy ears, “What are you shy about?”
“… does not want to reward you.”
“Why?” the man frowned slightly.
Estrella Berrocal felt too much heat from the look behind her and really didn’t want to respond, getting under the sheets, only to have the man get in too.
“You think your man isn’t cool enough? Then I have to do something to make you think I’m cool…”
“… um.” Spitting blood.
If there was a hole in the ground, I’d want to crawl into it right now.
…
The next morning, at the breakfast table, Paulita bit into a bear cookie and ate it with crumbs all over her little mouth.
Adán Rouco suddenly remembered what Estrella Berrocal had said the night before, so he looked at his daughter and called her suddenly in a very serious voice: “Paulita.”
“Hmm?” Paulita was distracted, with only food in her eyes.
“Do you like playing with Angelo Herrán?” asked Adán Rouco.
Paulita frowned slightly, took a sip of milk and pouted, “I don’t like playing with nasty people.”
“Yes.”
Adam Rouco’s heart rejoiced, and the corners of his lips curled up, for he was still the one his daughter loved most in her heart.
But the next moment, Paulita said with wide eyes, “Daddy, I like to play with my brother Rayman Matas in the senior class, daddy I want to jump into the senior class, can I?”
“…”
Adán Rouco feels 10, 000 tons of damage.
Finally, he switched to a cold tone, “Study hard, what are you going to play for.”
Estrella Berrocal: …
Paulita growled, “If you don’t want to play, you don’t want to play, you’re being mean again.”
Adam Rouco looked down at his melon clutching the bear cookie he was still happily eating, growing increasingly irritated and wrinkling his nose slightly. “What a cookie to have for breakfast in the morning.”
Estrella Berrocal: …
Paulita extended her little hands: “Estrella, look how unreasonable daddy is”.
Estrella Berrocal: It’s your father who is jealous!
…
On the other side, the smell of rice porridge is strong in the small apartment rented by Dulcina Calvo.
As soon as he woke up and thought of Esteban Zaragosa’s weak stomach, he went to prepare millet porridge.
The rice pudding is almost ready and Dulcina Calvo is about to go into her room to get Esteban Zaragosa up when the phone rings.
It was Dad calling.
The idea that she was with Esteban Zaragosa at that moment made her inexplicably vain for a moment.
There was a second’s hesitation before he replied, “Hi, Dad.”
“Dulcina, your mother and I wanted to come and see you, it’s Saturday, you’re not working today, right?”
“Ah…?” Dulcina Calvo was surprised, “That’s right, Dad, I’m, I’m fine, you and Mom don’t have to travel, I’ll be home next week!”
“Wow, your mother and I miss you, you’ve been studying in The Holy City for a long time, and until you go to work, we rarely come to The Holy City to see you… but for once, we’re almost there, and your mother and I have brought you your favorite carne adobada.”
Dulcina Calvo was thinking about how to say no when her head hit the floor, “Huh? You’re on your way already?”
“Yes, we’re almost at the door of your block, that’s the address you told us last time, isn’t it?”
Dulcina Calvo was very scared, her parents were already at the entrance of the block and would be upstairs soon, she hung up the phone and rushed to the bedroom to pull Esteban Zaragosa.
“My parents are coming soon! You have to hide!”
“…”
When Dulcina Calvo saw that he didn’t look well, she clasped her hands together and looked at him with pleading eyes: “Please, please! It’s not that I don’t want to talk to my parents, it’s that they simply can’t accept you now, and I’ll take my time so they’ll accept you later when I have time!”
Esteban Zaragosa is “tucked” in the dressing room by Dulcina Calvo.
Dulcina Calvo said apologetically as she closed the closet door, “Father! I’ll be sure to find a way to let you go later.”
Ding-dong, ding-dong-
At this point, the doorbell rang.
Dulcina Calvo quickly closed the closet door, ran to the entrance, found Esteban Zaragosa’s shoes still there, and immediately put his shoes in the shoe closet before opening the door.
“Dad, Mom, what are you doing here all of a sudden? Next time you come, so I can be prepared!”
Mother Dulcina was carrying a pile of groceries and came in, “Child, today is Saturday, your father and I have come by car to see you, what to do beforehand to prepare and bring you some food, to prevent you from eating take-out every day, which is not good for your health. do you have slippers?”
“Don’t change your shoes, you don’t have extra sneakers.”
When Papa Dulcina and Mother Dulcina entered the house, Mother Dulcina took the dishes to the kitchen first and then went to the bathroom to wash her hands. When she did, she found two toothbrushes in the sink, one pink and one blue, and the men’s razor.
Mother Dulcina frowned slightly, was this girl really joking? Does she usually bring the men in for a sleepover?
