Chapter 6- The Father of the Seven Sons and a Daughter

July's impulsive decision to be an AWOL from his permanent employment caused an argument with his wife. He agreed to leave for the capital city but instead of going back to his regular job he ventured to another employment. This kind of employment enabled him to explore almost the three biggest island of their country from East to west and north to south. In every site he would have stayed, slutty women were lurking trying to seduce them. With the relationship he shared with his wife he was never tempted by them nor be caught in their tricky snares. Even in taking care of his body, he was never careless. Unlike his men whom he was leading on to do the task they had, he would never display his nude wearing only an undergarment everytime he was taking a bath. Only his woman had the right to oogle his abs and touch it, he thought. He was afraid to get infected and be transferred to her. Even though his boss would treat him for free to have a woman in the site, his love and care for Czarina always his top priority. Although it was his cousin's encouragement to pay a whore in a club or kTV bar, he would never dare to touch even the tip of a finger. He could resist the temptation of these women who love to earn easy money in exchange of a momentary pleasure. At his home a never ending pleasure is always ready to be served for him still sizzling and crunchy, sanitized and seemingly aromatic like a freshly brewed coffee. So, why would he ever care for a stranger, only God knows the kind of disease she may have, if he has his wife waiting for him to come home?

What kind of father would he be if he would unable to observe self control? Would he be a model for his children? Would they still be respectful? Would they still be caring? No, he wouldn't dare committ deception, betrayal, infidelity, and dishonesty. These negativities would give their children a broken home that Czarina and he promised not to. Broken family would be a despicable experience of their children until they would be undermined into a mire of stinky rotten trashes of men, until they would be out of their mind due to depression, until they would become a medalist of pretences and hypocrisy trying to face the world in an upward chin but deep inside their heart and mind they were in turmoil and in dismay situation that was caused by their dismal state groping in the dark with no parents to lean on.

He refused to be strong instead he preferred to be sturdy against these devious women who were lurking like vultures who would have eaten stinky flesh of dead animals and persons. He could not wrap their children with bars of gold but he could cover them with his tender loving care that would envelope them from harm.

What about the trust of Czarina? What about the double standard that Czarina did not agree with? He knew her from the tip of her toe to the top of her head's hair. His and Czarina's family woul be in disarray as it was brazenly declared by her, that they should adhere to Confucius' golden rule... "Do not do unto others what you do not want others do unto you."

Besides, what do these slutty women have that his wife dies not have? Her innocence and ignorance were all revealed to him when she willingly ran away with him. Her curiosity, inexperienced status were all uncovered by him. So, why looked for immoral woman when his wife was morally upright? Indeed, she was a God-fearing little woman who would give her everything. Would their children ever be speechless and dumb once he would be an itchy father? It was his convincing power that made Czarina gave in to his every wish to impregnate her... To have several children.

These whores could never take away his wife and his children from him. When his boss hired two whores, one for him and one for July, he locked the door securely of the transient place they rented for an over night stay. No matter how the hired woman knocked at the door loudly, he was never moved to open it for her. At the middle of the night, the whore left disappointedly.

As he was waiting for sleep to lull him in deep slumber, he reminisced the same situation in his life. The only difference was he was still fifteen going to sixteen years old. On his way to a restaurant where he was a waiter, he would passed by some whoring house. Sometimes, these whores would have offered themselves for a meager amount of money, sometimes for free. They would even pulled him to the point that his polo was torn as he would force himself to get away from them. During those tears HIV-AIDS has never been a problem. It was still the so called STD, yet he refused to get infected with it. How much more during the period of this incurable sexually transmitted diseases called HIV-AIDS?

Self-respect begets respect of his wife and of course of his children, too. Loving his wife and his children unconditionally is loving himself first. Taking care of his family is taking care of himself first. Thus, why would he be careless by giving in to temptation?

Yes, his job and her job separated them for months. But, when vacation of leave came, all those months they were separated were compensated with the quality time they shared for each other Only the house lizards would have witnessed an intensity of a man-made earthquake every night. His sexual procrastination during his absence from their love nest was never been promiscuous as his gentleness prevailed. Indeed, he was a gentleman in his own right that he has never argued with her on bed. Instead, he would shamelessly swayed her by tricking her with his sugar coated tongue coupled with his gentle touches to the right buttons. As he was a man of action in distress due the length of his life within a parched circumstances, he had no choice but to swith her wife into a flaming ember of a hard and dried firewood. If there are basic steps in folk dancing, there are also basic steps in love making. This man never would have sex with her instead he would have made love with her as he would whisper to his wife's ears that it is the best gift from God for them to express their love fir each other as they are sacredly blessed by God.

Do you think Czarina would be able to refute? She willingly agreed as she was enjoying his advances excitedly and enthusiastically.

Yes, this father of his seven sons and a daughter may be financially impoverished but morally wealthy.
