Kapitel 189: Having a Family

"Oh! Papa, you're awake! Come! The food is almost ready!" The little girl called Louella happily greeted him as he stepped out of the bedroom.

His towering figure almost reaching the low ceiling of the nipa hut.

"What's for dinner then?" His smile can melt anyone's heart.

The lady who was cooking with her daughter timidly smiled. "We're having fish stew. You two wash your hands. It won't be long 'til it's ready."

"Okay." He smiled and fetched some water from the nearby pump.

She was placing plates on the table when the two came back into the house.

"Papa, please take off the fishbones for me." The little girl requested with puppy eyes.

"Sure, Darling." He smiled gently at her, but was startled by the glare from the lady.

"Luis, don't spoil her. She can do it herself." She turned towards her daughter. "Louella, debone the fish yourself. Don't bother your father. He needs to eat well to regain his strength."
