HANGGA’T maaari ay ayaw ng Queen of All Media na si Kris Aquino na pasukin ng kanyang bunsong anak na si Bimby ang professional basketball.
Ayon kay Kris, baka raw kasi hindi niya ma-take at makontrol ang kanyang sarili bilang nanay kapag pinisikal na ng kanyang mga kalaban sa hardcourt ang anak.
Nasa Japan pa rin ngayon si Kris kasama sina Joshua at Bimby at sa isa niyang Instagram video kung saan mapapanood ang ilang activities na ginawa ng kanyang bunso, ikinuwento ni Tetay ang naging usapan nila tungkol sa paglalaro ng basketball.
“BIMB. He asked me tonight (i spent most of the day in bed asleep) if it was okay that he was naturally good in basketball? WHOA. Poor him to feel i’d feel bad about something he was good at.
“They went to Harajuku & Round 1 Spo-Cha (Bincai & i organized our stuff to send home & then went to Mass) and Bimb said he enjoyed badminton a lot, but scored highest in sharp shooting (and loved it) & boxing; BUT he was able to make a half court shot in basketball… time for this mama to grow up & be less dependent on her bunso.
“I promised him when we get home, he can choose all the sports he likes and he can immediately enroll in boxing & badminton BUT i think the firing range will have to wait until he’s 18.
“About basketball, it’s a team sport, so medyo mahirap apurahin & this is one instance where sensitivities have to be taken into careful consideration.
“I couldn’t be happier that my 2 are experiencing so much & being regular kids during this trip. #family.”
Isang IG follower ni Kris ang nagsabi na gusto rin niyang mapanood si Bimby bilang professional basketball player. Dalawang rason ang ibinigay ni Kris kung bakit nag-aalinlangan siya na payagan si Bimby na pasukin ang mundo ng basketball.
“1st the high expectations because of all his dad achieved,” na ang tinutukoy ay ang tatay ni Bimby na si James Yap na kasalukuyang naglalaro para sa Rain or Shine team ng PBA.
“2nd kung intentional na sikuhin o sapakin siya, sasabunutan ko ‘yung nanay nung gumawa. Boxing kasi alam mo na ang pinasok mo. And I’m a huge ROCKY/CREED fan. So, alam na natin yung gulo hindi sa court – sa stands where the moms are watching,” aniya.
