Franky took one last look at the sleeping Daniel before she went into his room to wake him up. Daniel was much like Franky. He'd kick everything off his bed and sleep with his limps spread out. Franky let out a laugh before picking up his bolster, blanket and pillow.

"Hey, little sleepyhead..." Franky placed a kiss on Daniel's forehead and watched the boy open his eyes only to close them up again.

"You can't be late on your first day of school, yeah? C'mon!" Franky pulled Daniel up forcefully and led him to the toilet to shower him.

Once Franky splashed the warm water onto Daniel, the boy instantly woke up and didn't quite like the feeling of water going in to his eyes and nose the first thing in the morning. He splashed the water right back at Franky's face and they got into a water splashing competition. In the end, Franky raised her hands in surrender.

"I win!" Daniel jumped around in the bathtub and almost slipped. Luckily Franky was holding him.

"Alright, ya win. Now let's shower you!"

"Mommy B! Good morning!" Daniel put his school bag on the couch and went to the dining table. Bridget gave Daniel a bowl of cereal with milk.

Franky went to the kitchen after changing out of her wet clothes. She looked over and disapprove of what Daniel was eating. He shouldn't be eating cereals with milk on his first day of school!

"I told you to bathe him, Franky, not bathe with him in your clothes." Bridget rolled her eyes, but secretly loving that both the loves of her life are already having fun even before the day starts.

"We were bonding, Gidge. Are you jealous? Well, next time you should join us!" Franky placed a kiss on Bridget's cheek.

"Nuh, boy, we're not eating this. Bacon, scrambled eggs with honey toast!"

"Honey toast!" Daniel stood on his chair and started jumping, only to be scolded by Bridget.

After having breakfast, both Franky and Bridget sent Daniel to school. Daniel wanted them both to be with him on the first day of school. However, Franky had a hard time parting with Daniel. She was like a child who got her barbie taken away from her.

Bridget couldn't help but laugh when Franky kept adjusting Daniel's uniform even when it was already perfectly neat. Franky was trying to buy time and secretly hoped Bridget wouldn't notice. Bridget has been a psychologist for years, she observes people's behaviour, why they do certain things. Nothing would get past her eyes, especially when it comes to Franky.

"Mommy F... Can I not go to school?" Daniel pouted, and Franky hugged him.

"Nuh... You need to study and learn new things. Off ya go, Mommy F and Mommy B will be here when you end school, 'kay?" Franky placed kisses on Daniel's cheeks before handing him his bag.

Daniel gave Franky and Bridget kisses on their cheeks before he went into his school. Franky even shed tears watching Daniel go out of sight.

"Was it that hard, baby? He's gonna grow up some day, you know that right? You need to learn to let go." Bridget wiped Franky's tears away with her thumb and stroke her cheeks.

"I just can't believe he's already six years old Gidget."

"Well, and I'm six years older now." There was a moment of silent before they both break into laughter.

"Six years older and you're still the hottest woman in this world." Franky kissed Bridget on the lips before they both got into the car.

Franky drove Bridget to her clinic before she goes to Legal Relief.

Daniel looked for his parents as soon as he was out of the gates. While waiting, he took out the A3 sized paper he had on his hands. Daniel smiled when he looked over the drawing again. Just before Daniel was going to roll up the drawing, he heard his name being called.

"Daniel!" Franky got out of the car with her arms wide open. Daniel went straight to her and threw himself into her arms. Bridget followed and hugged both Franky and Daniel.

"Did you make any friends in school today?" Daniel and Bridget sat at the back while Franky drove them home.

"Yes! Jessica, Taylor, Betty and Miranda are the new friends I made today!" Both Bridget and Franky wasn't surprised that they were mostly girls. Anyone would be attracted to Daniel, Franky always thought.

Bridget finally noticed the paper that Daniel had been holding on to ever since he was outside the gate. "What's that?" Bridget pointed at the paper in Daniel's hands.

"It's a drawing that we did in class today." Daniel unrolled the paper and showed Bridget what he drew. It was what a typical kid would draw and think of when it comes to family. Daniel had drawn a landscape of him in the middle, Franky and Bridget at his sides. There weren't many things around them, just their house and a few sunflowers.

"It's beautiful." Bridget kept the drawing and Daniel kept quiet throughout the journey home.

Once they are homed, Daniel kicked his shoes off outside the door and his bag along the corridor. Franky didn't stop him and picked it up for him. Bridget could foresee her lover spoiling Daniel and thought it won't work.

"Daniel! Why don't you go to your room and change out of your uniform?" Franky said with much enthusiasm and she smiled ear to ear when she heard Daniel's scream of joy.

"It's Wii! Play with me Mommies!" Daniel handed the box to Franky to set it up and Bridget sat next to Franky while Daniel does his homework at the long island.

"When did you buy this? Why wasn't I aware of it?" Bridget asked with a slight authority in her tone.

"I ordered it online and they delivered it just this afternoon." Franky replied while looking at the manual book.

"I can see it. Do you think it's good for Daniel to be having video games now at this age?"

Franky scoffed, "Why not? It's fun. I heard a lot of kids play with Wii. We can even play together, isn't that great? We can bond with each other! There are three controllers, one for each of us." Franky waved the controllers in front of Bridget and went back to the manual book.

"Yeah, right. I've a lot of work to do tonight." Bridget rolled her eyes and went into the bedroom to change her clothes. Franky made a mental note to remind herself to talk to Bridget after putting Daniel to sleep. Bridget was acting weird and she needed to know why.

During dinner, Daniel shared with his Moms about how his school went today. They had fun hearing Daniel's stories, most of them are about how he made friends with his classmates and what did they do during lunch hours. Daniel looked happy, unlike this morning where he was gloomy. Franky was happier than anyone else that Daniel could fit in easily.

It was 10pm when Bridget was done with her reports. She went to the living room and saw Franky and Daniel still playing Wii.

"Aww, I lost again!" Franky sighed, and pretended to be crying.

"I'll let you win in the next round, Mommy F!" Daniel waved the controller in front of Franky's face with pride.

"Nuh, no more next round. Brush your teeth and get to bed." Bridget took the controller from Daniel's hands.

"Just one more round, Mommy B?" Bridget didn't know when Daniel got to learn that, but he was flashing his sad Daniel puppy eyes.

"Nuh, you have school tomorrow. Go to bed. Mommy B'll check on you later." Bridget placed a kiss on Daniel's forehead and the little boy head towards his room.

Franky turned off the TV and grabbed Bridget's arm before she could get to the kitchen. "Alright, what's going on Gidget? You've been moody since we got back. Is something bothering you? Tell me."

Bridget freed her arm, "Yes. You're spoiling Daniel too much. That's what is bothering me."

"Did I? Gidge, I just want Daniel to be happy. I heard kids of his age love video games, so I bought him one. I want him to have a childhood Gidget. I want him to be able to tell his friends that his Moms bought him stuff."

"Not just the video games. You picked up his stuff after him. He's young, we should teach him the correct way to put his shoes when he come home, where to put his bag, and have some self discipline. When it's time to sleep, he should go to sleep. You're always doing things the way that he wants. And if you don't do it, he'll throw a fit. It's a bad habit, Franky. Once he knows that he'll always have his ways, he'll rely on us."

Franky's tongue run across her lower lip and her eyes start to water, "So you think I'm a bad mom?"

"No, Franky, I don't mean that. I just think that we should teach him things the correct way, not give in to him or spoil him." Bridget closed the distance between them but Franky backed away.

Franky scoffed and headed to Daniel's bedroom. It has become a routine to read Daniel bedtime stories, just like what many parents do to their kids. Franky grabbed Daniel's favorite book and lay next to him on the bed.

"Is Mommy B not joining us today?" Daniel asked, Franky could've swore she saw a tinge of disappointment in Daniel's eyes.

"Mommy B's a little tired today. It'll be just the two of us tonight."

"Did you and Mommy B fight? Please don't fight." Daniel pouted and Franky felt bad.

"Nuh, we didn't. Don't worry, D." Franky kissed Daniel on his forehead before turning to the first chapter of the book.

After making sure that Daniel is fast asleep, Franky went to the bedroom. She saw Bridget sitting on the bed waiting for her. Franky felt bad that she's teaching Daniel the wrong things, but she is also upset that Bridget didn't see that Franky was just trying to give Daniel the childhood that she didn't have.

"Baby? Are you still mad?" Bridget asked when Franky got into bed next to her. Franky ignored her and turned off the lamp on her side.

"Night Gidget."

Bridget sighed and turned off the lamp on her side as well. She placed a kiss on Franky's cheek before turning in.

Morning came, Bridget stirred on the bed while reaching for Franky, only to realise that her lover wasn't in bed. The older woman stood up and went to the bathroom to freshen up before heading to the kitchen.

"Hey," Bridget stood next to Franky, her left hand placed on Franky's back, watching her fry eggs on the pan.

"Hey." Franky turned off the stove and face Bridget, "I'm sorry, Gidge. I was behaving like a kid last night. I promise I won't spoil Daniel anymore. I'll teach him the correct things, even if he doesn't like it."

"I know you will." Bridget smiled, and kissed Franky.

Daniel was reading his story book at the dining table when Franky placed a plate filled with omelette, toast and bacons in front of him. "Feed me, Mommy F!" The little boy said without looking at Franky.

"Dan, you gotta eat on your own, 'kay? Don't be lazy. You can read your book later in the car." Franky took Daniel's book away and sat opposite him. She turned and gesture Bridget to sit next to her. Bridget flashed a motherly smile and Franky was honestly happy that she's doing the correct thing.

[Bridget W.] might have to work late tonight, can't pick Dan up with you. help me say sorry

[Franky D.] aww, my poor gidge

[Franky D.] do you want me to pick you up after Daniel goes to sleep?

[Bridget W.] nah, save the trouble

[Franky D.] it's no trouble gidget

[Bridget W.] it's fine, stay home with Daniel

[Franky D.] can i make you supper?

[Bridget W.] you're being weird today

[Franky D.] i miss you

[Franky D.] so can i?

[Bridget W.] 'course

[Bridget W.] see you tonight baby

Even though they are together all the time, Bridget knew what Franky meant when she said she misses her. When they didn't have Daniel, they could do so many more things. They used to cuddle with each other on the couch, watching romance movies that Franky absolutely loves, go for midnight walk or just dance in the living room. But now that they have Daniel, things changed. Though it isn't a bad change, Franky missed those times where there were lesser responsibilities.

Daniel held Franky's pinky finger while walking to the car. "Mommy F, can we have fries before we go home?"

Franky thought for awhile, it's been long since Daniel had fries. Bridget used to throw in frozen fries into the air fryer when Daniel wanted some, but Franky didn't like that they were processed fries. "Why don't Mommy F make some homemade fries for you? It's healthier and we can make it together!"

Daniel nodded his head vigorously, obviously happy about the idea of making fries from scratch.

"Let's race to the car, yeah? Winner gets two plates of fries!" Franky started running even before she finished her sentence and they both race to the car. Franky slowed down in the middle of the race so that Daniel would win. She promised herself before that no matter what, she'll always let Daniel win.
