The little boy watched as everybody licks their ice cream. In his mind he wonders what could be that food everybody’s licking so hard. They all looked delighted though he thought. It must be very good came another thought. And the little boy nudge her mother’s skirt and tried to get her attention. He was lucky. His mother noticed him at once and asked what his darling little boy wanted. He pointed at the ice cream in a cone so his mother immediately bought one.
As soon as the ice cream in a cone was given to the little boy, he walked away from the little crowd and sat. At first he stared at it unbelieving that it was already in his hands waiting to be licked at. Nervously, he let out his tongue and slowly let it touch the ice cream and hesitated. Confused at the initial feeling he decided to make a go and let out the whole tongue. He licked the ice cream.
The little boy threw the ice cream at once which surprised his mother and everybody around. He was yelling, “Hot! hot!”

The people around him asked this little boy to smile. He tried his best and his first smile resulted to something not really a smile.
His dad asked him to smile some more and the result was more like not a sweet smile but a sour smile!

Someone was trying to capture a perfect pose for this little boy and he did not budge. He knows that the photographer is trying to get a picture of him. He is only three. He did not mind at all if the camera is aimed at him. Instead he stared.
Suddenly, “I have a car!” he blurted out of nowhere. “Really?” replied the photographer. “Where is your car now?” she continued asking. “There, far away, ” the little boy answered.

His mother left him to work abroad when he was still young. It was his aunt who had took care of him like a child. His father was just a symbol. He never did anything for him except to bring him to school then back home during the elementary years. Now, he had graduated from high school and he had plans for his life that does not include his father.
His aunt asked him once why he treats his father with disrespect. It’s plain and simple he said. His father did not act like one. He had never spent so much for his upbringing. He had witnessed how he spends his mother’s earnings abroad. He never saw him long for his mother.
He admitted that he had lost respect totally when he learned that he had another woman who he frequents. He knows where this woman lives when one day he followed him from work.

Let me tell you a story about this little boy. He seldom smiles at me nor at anybody else except when he’s around with his two older sisters and playmates. He will not go near anybody but his father and mother. He will not allow you to touch him, or cuddle him, or give him a kiss. He is as untamed as the animals in the wild. But if you really want to hear him talk (he talks cute and he sounded like an adult despite his young age) or you wanted him to go near you and let you hug and kiss him, there is one secret.
The secret is nothing new. Food. He seems to have an appetite. He likes to eat. If you had experienced sometime in your life when food was scarce, then maybe you will understand why he can forget that he does not like to be cuddled, hugged and kissed in exchange for food.
