Chapter 21
Early nutting is so embarrassing...
Since we easily fell asleep after the 'exercise', my wife and I didn't have a problem waking up at 5 in the morning.
Of course, when we woke up, my wife giggled when she found that I was still grumbling about what happened last night.
We both went to the bathroom at the same time to wake up our groggy bodies. We have seen each other's bodies before, we know almost every nook and cranny of each other's bodies.
So we were not embarrassed to be naked. In fact, we even help each other wash our backs. Bathing in cold water is the best way to start the day, in my opinion.
What? Cold water is scary? No, we Filipinos are used to it. Hot showers are only for the weak and the rich...
When we come out of the bathroom, we feel refreshed and awake.
"I'll wake up the kids."
Penelope said after getting dressed.
"Then I'll make breakfast."
There was leftover chicken from last night and I can just heat it up. As my wife entered the children's room, I remembered something.
Oh, I almost forgot. Let's try the 'energy pill' in the store. Maybe it can boost my energy.
I thought and opened the System Shop. There was only one item I could buy, the Energy Pill. It only costs 1 point, so I did not feel bad about buying it.
Now that I know that I can get a mission every day, the 30-minute exercise, I'm confident that I can earn that 1 point back.
I smiled and clicked the buy button.
A small pill materialized on my palm. It was a white pill, nothing strange about it.
"I have to drink it, right?"
Since the system is supposed to help me, I have to trust it. I believe this pill will not endanger me, but help me.
I took a deep breath and put the pill in my mouth. With the help of a glass of water, I swallowed the pill.
... And I feel nothing at all.
"Is that it?"
Maybe it doesn't work fast. Anyway, I don't have time to dilly-dally, I have to prepare breakfast.
When the children left the room, breakfast was already prepared for them to eat.
Unlike us adults, we don't force the children to take a cold bath. Especially Sophia, we washed her with warm water.
"Let's eat first, then your mother will help you take a bath."
"Un..."
Roman nodded reluctantly. As for Sophia, she was still snoring in her mother's arms. She was half awake, I feel bad looking at my snoring daughter.
Don't worry baby, it won't happen again. The circumstances are special this time and we have to get up early to get to the province before nightfall.
"Honey, come on, take a bite. You like chicken, right?"
Penelope was busy trying to persuade baby Sophia to eat. Fortunately, Sophia still obeyed and chewed her food, even though she was sleepy.
Roman didn't need to be spoon-fed, he ate with his hands just like me.
"You have to eat too."
I said to my wife, putting a chicken wing on her plate.
"Hm, I will feed Sophia first."
A few minutes later, we all finished eating. My wife took the children to the bathroom. We had already boiled water for the children.
While they were bathing, I washed the dishes.
"No~~ Mom~ cold~"
"Stay still, sweetheart, you don't want Mommy to be sad, right? Look at your big brother, he can wash by himself now."
"But bwother is big, I'm small~"
I heard Sophia's desperate cry. I chuckled and let her mother take care of her. She is much better at this than I am.
The children escaped the bathroom gritting their teeth and wrapped in towels.
Children, you will realize that you have it better. Back then, there's no gas stove to heat water. We used cold water everyday.
Penelope took them to their room to put on their clothes. Since it was still cold outside, Penelope made sure they wore jackets to protect their bodies.
"Phew."
"You did a great job."
I handed my exhausted wife a cup of coffee.
"Sophia is getting wilder. She is unrestrained."
My wife muttered after taking a sip.
"Waking Roman up is exhausting too. Roman grumbled that he wanted to sleep more."
She sighed. The kids really are a pain. Even a disciplined boy like Roman still had a problem getting up early.
The kids were in good shape when we left the house, wrapped in their clothes. My wife really made sure they were comfortable on this cold morning.
"Are you sure you can carry them? You can ask me if you need any help."
"I'm fine."
"That's great...'
I was surprised as I carried the two bags. They were heavy, but I feel that my body can carry them all day without getting tired.
Is this the power of the Energy Pill?
I casually carried the two bags without any problem. I can carry one more if I want to.
Penelope carried baby Sophia. Roman was beside her, following her.
"Let's go."
It didn't take long until we were in a jeep. Since it was early, there was no traffic and the drive was smooth.
We reached the bus station quickly.
"You are going to Pangasinan? Good news, there is a bus going there."
A good man helped us find the way and we found the bus.
We boarded the bus and thank God there were enough seats for all of us.
"Honey, how long do you think it will take us to get there?"
"At best, we'll be there before afternoon."
"I hope so."
The three of us sat together. Roman sat in the middle, while my wife sat by the window. As for Sophia, she was on her mother's lap, watching the scene out the window.
