"Dad!" My Five-year-old daughter is calling me.
She jumped on the bed and then removed my comforter. "Wake up, Dad! I have something to tell you, wake up!"
I could do nothing but get up. I only slept for four hours because I came home early from the disco bar.
I frowned at my daughter. "Bhea, your Dad is still sleepy, what do you need?"
She smiled at me. "I've seen my future Mommy."
I stared at her. "Bhea, you shouldn't be looking for your future Mommy, it will come at the right time. How many times have I told you don't need to look for your new Mommy? "
How many times has she been looking for my future wife? She even asked for help from her aunts, uncles and even his grandmother to have a blind date. I just agreed to have a blind date for my daughter. I know she wants to feel like having Mommy. She was only five months old when her Mommy left her with me after I caught her with another man.
His hand covered my face and stared at me. "Daddy, this is the last one, I can no longer find a new wife for you. Just say yes."
I sighed. "Okay, who am I going to date?"
"Nanny!" she called to her Nanny.
Her Nanny was standing at the door. It's holding an iPad. "Yes, Bhea?'
"Come to me,"
I frowned. Don't tell me that Nanny Marie is the one she wants to be, Mommy.
"Nanny, lend me my iPod."
Bhea opened the iPod, and she scrolled. "This Daddy," she once showed me a picture of a woman smiling. She is white and beautiful in the picture. But nowadays, photo editing is a trend. Easy to cheat pictures.
"What is that?"
"She's looking for Boyfriend, and I recommend you, Daddy."
"Bhea, such women only want money, no sensible woman will post to find a billionaire boyfriend."
"But I already chatted with her and I said you will meet him tomorrow." Bhea showed their chat.
"f**k!" I murmur
I read as much as the woman wanted the man who would be her boyfriend should be able to pay fifteen thousand pesos for her house's rent. Annoyingly, Bhea agreed.
"Bhea, maybe it's a scam or a bad person? Who taught you to enter a dating site? You are only five years old, where did you learn that? "
She pointed to Nanny Marie. "I saw Nanny Marie, who was talking to a man, she said it was her boyfriend. So I asked her to make me an account for you."
I rubbed my face. "Geez, Nanny, Don't show Bhea what you're doing chatting with men. Bhea is imitating."
Nanny Marie nodded. "Sorry sir."
"Daddy, you'll meet tomorrow morning at the Mall. Don't forget," she said.
"Okay! Okay! Just leave it. I want to sleep again."
Bhea smiled. "Sweet dreams Daddy." She kissed my cheek at the same time, and then they left my room. I shook as I watched him come out of my room.
"You're really growing up, Bhea." I whispered.
Then I continued my sleep.
When I woke up at three o'clock in the afternoon, I immediately got up to do my daily routine. I brushed and bathed and then exercised for an hour. That is what I usually do in the morning when I wake up. Because my day is not complete when I can't meditate and exercise. Then I left the room and went to my office to answer my emails.
Moments later, my maid knocked on the door.
"Come," I replied.
One of my maids came in with food. Instead of rice, I prepared—bread and vegetable salad.
"Thank you," I said as he laid the food on the table, and nodded and then left my room.
While I was busy reading emails to me, my cellphone rang. I saw on my cellphone screen, Mommy's name. I answered her call.
"Hello, Mom?"
"It's good that you answered my call I thought you were still asleep,"
"Bhea told you I came home drunk last night?"
Mommy laughed. "Your child seems to be an adult when it comes to thinking. She is brilliant."
I sighed. That's true. Bhea looked for my date again. "
Mommy laughed out loud. "Why don't you prioritize finding a future wife? you are too busy with work. You can't even take your child to parks or malls."
I fell silent. Mommy was right. I didn't even realize Bhea was growing up because I was busy with work.
"We are going to the mall tomorrow."
"That's good,"
In the evening, I went to my daughter's room. I knocked on her bedroom door. Then I opened it and saw her Nanny combing her.
"Dad!" She said.
I walked closer to her. "Are you going to sleep?"
"Yes, Dad, I'm not allowed to stay awake."
I messed up her hair. "That's good,"
"What do you need?"
"I just want to tell you that I will take you on my blind date tomorrow to meet the woman. You will be the one to check if she can be your Mommy,"
She hugged me tightly and smiled. "Yehey! Thank you, Daddy!"
"You're welcome." I kissed her on the cheek.
"I love you, Dad."
"I love you too,"
"Do you want me to read a story so you can fall asleep right away."
She nodded. "Yes, please, Dad."
"Okay," I stood up to pick up a book on her bookshelves and read it until she fell asleep.

"Where are you going Viel?" My friend Thor asked me.
After I have a meeting with the investor, I will go home. Thor is one of my friends, and he is the one I trust in the company. He has 30% shares in the company.
I opened the door of my car before looking at him.
"My daughter and I have a date today, I will come back later."
"Okay, Good luck!" it even waved.
I got in the car to pick up my daughter at the mansion. When I got home, Bhea was dressed up.
"I'm so excited, Daddy." said Bhea.
We are going to the Mall to meet my blind date. A few minutes later, we arrived at the Mall. We went to the fast-food chain. I ordered food while Bhea and I waited.
"Daddy! She is here!" Bhea shouted.
"What is she wearing and what color is her dress?" I asked.
"She's wearing jeans, and a red t-shirt, she also has long hair."
Bhea and I looked at the entrance, and we waited for the incoming customers until a beautiful woman came in, who was the same description Bhea said.
"She's cute, she's probably that."
I stood up to approach him.
She had long lashes and narrow lips. She does not have any makeup on her face, but you can say she is beautiful, even without makeup. I was even more impressed with her face.
I tapped her shoulder, and she turned to me.
"Why?" she asked
"Are you Xheree?"
She raised her brows. "Yes, do i know you?"
I stared at her and held out my hand.
"My name is Viel Domingo,"
Her eyes widened. "V-Viel Domingo?" She muttered.
