"Honey, take care."

"Where's my kiss?"

"Fufu, don't be silly."

"This is unfair! You just kissed Sophia earlier. Why can't I get mine?"

"... Honey, you're getting childish today. It's early in the morning, you need to go to the city hall to register our family and the business."

"Where's my kiss?"

"..."

I feel like I'm acting like a child today. Well, I want my kiss. 

"Dajjy, I can kwiss you instead!"

Sophia showed up, crawling. 

Aww, my sweet daughter. Unlike my wife, my daughter clearly loves me.

"Sweetie, I'll buy you a cake once I return."

"Pwomise?"

"I promise."

"Yay! Dajjy, carry!"

I obeyed Sophia's order and carried her. She kissed me on the cheek. 

"Muah! Hehe. Don't forget the cake Dajjy. Or else Sophia will never kwiss you again!"

She giggled... Why do I feel like my daughter just threatened me? Meh, probably just my imagination. 

How can my cute daughter inherit Penelope's bad side? Of course Sophia will be my cute daughter.

I gave her to Penelope and Sophia cuddled with her mother. 

"... Come here."

"Hm?"

I took a step closer and my wife suddenly kissed me. 

I was stunned and glanced at Penelope. She was smiling, but her cheeks were blushing. 

"Wah! Mommy is wed! Mommy is wed!"

"Hush, Sophia. I'm not red. Today is just too hot!"

The mother and daughter giggled. 

"How about you Roman? Do you to kiss me?"

I looked at my son who was reading Abcd's. At the age of 5, he could read English... 

At that age, I was still busy trying to be super Saiyan.

"Dad, that's gay."

"..."

Okay, I guess my son doesn't like kissing his Dad. No problem, I understand. I don't want to kiss my Dad when I was young, he was a grumpy man who was always busy with his business. 

After being kissed by my daughter and wife, I left the house. 

I used the Toyota Pickup Truck and drove out of the subdivision. I was thankful to have a car... I feel bad that I hate this cat back then. 

"Don't worry Toyo, I will never let you down ever again."

I said and tapped the steering wheel. 

That's right, I already named the car after receiving it yesterday. Toyo is already part of the family. 

Unlike Manila which was infested by air pollution and everyday traffic. Cavite had fresh air and the road is far better than the capital. At least I can reach the city hall of Dasmariñas after ten minutes... That was fucking fast to be honest. 

There were fewer cars these days. 

"Two decades and Cavite will have congested traffic as well."

That was still a long time and it's not my problem. The mayor should think about it, not me. 

"Hello, where can I register?" I asked the guard. 

"Are you new here?"

"Yes, my family is from Quezon City. We decided to live in Cavite."

"Hm, go to the second floor."

"Thanks."

The residential register was very important. If I didn't get registered, then I can't vote in Dasmariñas. 

"Actually, Penelope needs to register as well. But she can't join me because she has to take care of the kids."

Once you reached 18 years old, you should register. That's one of your duty as a citizen of the Philippines... That's the sign that you're an official taxpayer.

To register, the city hall needs my birth certificate and fingerprints. It's a hassle. It has a long process. So it's better to register early in the morning. 

After signing everything, I gave the photocopy of my birth certificate. I signed my fingerprints as well. So each tip of my fingers was marked by a blue thumb printer. 

As for the business permit, I gave my requirements and paid the required amount. 

When I was done, it was already 2 pm. It took me more than six hours to complete the process...

I was sweating when I left the city hall. 

"Damn, the city hall is so cramped."

Even though there was an air conditioner inside the building, it was still hot. The place was so packed that the air conditioner was deemed useless. 

"Ah, I have to buy presents for the kids."

If you're going to ask me, I don't want my daughter to hate me. 

Thankfully, there are many convenient shops around the place. I can see restaurants, printing shops, bakeries, and such.

So I bought a piece of cake... It was very expensive, worth 300 pesos. 

If I buy this every day, I might turn bald. 

With a box of cake, I entered the car and left the place. 

"It's hot..."

I realized one of the reasons why I didn't like this car... The air conditioner was not working. 

So I opened the windows to let air circulate inside the car. 

Just like that, I spent half of my day registering for residence and business. 

When I returned to the house, the kids were sleeping. 

Penelope always make sure that the kids would sleep at noon. She said that the kids would grow faster if they sleep at noon. 

"How's your day?"

She passed me a cold water and I drank it in just a few seconds. Ah, the taste of water. It's so hydrating. 

"I already registered. Tomorrow I will contact a construction company to renovate the shop."

"That's good. You should rest."

"Hm."

She helped me take off my t-shirt. She wiped my sweat. I didn't sense that she was scrutinizing my wide shoulders. 

She gulped, but I thought she was just thirsty just like me. 

"Honey, I'll go to the room. I bought a cake, you can give it to the kids later."

"Y- Yes... How about I sleep with you?"

"That's fine."

Because I was tired, I didn't sense Penelope's signals. I easily fell asleep... When I woke up, I realized that my wife was acting grumpy.

"Did I do something I didn't know?"

I muttered. Clueless why Penelope was sighing and glancing at me.
