Especially now that Agam is already good at chattering funny, making him want to quickly arrive and invite him to play.

Before returning home, Nathan stopped by the toy store. He wanted to buy toys for his son. There were so many toys in her son's room.

Nathan's down at the toy store. He wants to buy toys for boys. And there were so many toys, that he was at a loss to choose them.

"It's good too, sir!" the waiter shows Nathan the robots.

"My son is still two months old, Mba! Don't know robots yet!" abugn.

"Oh, then this is it! It is safe for two-month-old children. There's another light!"

"Well, this is good too! Yes, I took this one!"

Nathan waited for the waiter to wrap the toy. While waiting, he saw someone he knew very well. He saw a woman wearing a worn dress, holding a child who seemed to be one year old, and a child about 5 years old on the right. In his left hand, he was carrying a rattan basket. Where the basket contains tissues. Looks like that woman's a traveling tissue salesman.

"Beautiful?" call Nathan. The woman turned to Nathan. The woman was shocked to see Nathan. He was about to run, but Nathan tried to stop him.

"Beautiful, Wait!" call her again, "You're beautiful, right?"

"No, I'm not beautiful!" abugn.

"But I'm sure you are, lovely!"

It was beautiful to leave that place. But the child in his sling was crying, asking for nothing. Then the other son whined for food. It looks so confused and anxious.

"Yes, be patient, baby!"
