Chapter 42: Settling Everything

"These are the twins' memory box..." Sabay lapag ni Dwanee ng isang kahon sa harapan ni BPP. Nasa kwarto parin silang dalawa. Inumpisahan na niyang buksan ang kahon at unang kinuha ang isang pregnancy ultrasound result niya dati. Ibinigay niya iyon kay bakla.

"I couldn't believe that I was carrying twins back then. Kaya pala malaki ang tiyan ko nun." She happily told him. She could still remember that time when the doctor announced that she was having a  baby girl and a boy. Sobrang saya niya nun.

Sunod niyang kinuha ang dalawang infant clothes. Ang isa ay baby blue ang kulay, ang isa naman ay baby pink.

"I made this clothes for them." Sabay bigay niya ng mga ito kay bakla. Natutuwang hinihimas naman ng huli ang dalawang maliliit na damit. "And this was the very first clothes they wore on the day they were born."

"It's so tiny." Amazed na komento nito. Tiningnan niya ang reaksiyon ni bakla. She could see sparkles in his beautiful green eyes. She couldn't help not to smile.

Ang dating kinamumuhian niya; ang dating kinasusuklaman niya; ang dating lagi niyang tinataboy; ang dating kinaiinisan niya, ay nandito na ngayon— katabi niya at mahal na mahal niya.

She unconsciously lifted her hand and gently caressed his face. Bahagya siyang natawa dahil mas malambot pa kaysa sa isang natural na babae ang balat nito. Bumaba ang tingin niya sa malalambot nitong mga labi. Natatawang napailing siya sa kaniyang isipan. Even though they passionately kissed earlier, the lipgloss on his lips was still glossy.

She still couldn't believe that she has fallen in love with this man... Or should we say, gay. Na kung tutuusin, mas babae pa itong umasta kaysa sa kaniya. Natatawang napailing ulit siya sa kaniyang isipan. Destiny really has its own funny way of turning things around.

"Na-realized mo na bang sobrang ganda ko talaga, kurdapz?" Naka-awrang tudyo nito. Poker faced niyang ibinaba na ang kamay. Panira talaga ng moment ang baklitang ito.

"Ewan ko sa'yo." Saad niya saka inirapan ito. May kinuha na naman siyang muli sa kahon. Isang medium sized na box. Binuksan niya iyon at ipinakita kay BPP ang mga laman nun.

She introduced him the twins' first nail cuts, hair cuts, and even the dried umbilical cord, neatly sealed in a small transparent zip lock plastic. Lahat ng mga ito ay tinago niya at pinahalagahan. She then next showed him the twins' photo albums when they were still an infant.

"Aww, so cute. Kamukhang-kamukha ko talaga si baby boy noong baby pa aketch." Komento nito habang hindi mapaglagyan ang kasiyahang namumutawi sa mga mata nito. Ngunit ilang sandali lang ay biglang lumungkot ang mukha ni bakla.

"Bakit?" Naitanong niya.

"I wish I had seen them from the day they were born until they grew up. I wish I had taken care of them. I wish I had known sooner that I was already a father. I wish—" She cut his words by giving him a quick kiss.

"There you go again— blaming yourself. It happened already. If we had met sooner, perhaps, I would probably strangle you to death knowing that I had chosen a gay donor. Or I would migrate to some place off the grid. So stop saying things like that. At baka nakakalimutan mong magiging tatay kang muli. And this time, you have all the chances to take to become a loving father. Don't blame yourself, bipz. You made your choice. I made mine. But now, we can make new chances... together."
