"Babe, we are here. Excited na silang makilala ka." He said on his very sincere voice. This is it Beatriz. Prepare yourself for his revelation. I forced myself to smile while he pressed my hands lightly.
We entered McDonalds and directly go near the activity area. He opened the door for me and I was shocked when I heard little voices shouting for his name. "Daddy!" The baby girl shouted.
"Daddy Thirdy, Daddy Thirdy!" A group of little boys screaming.
"Yehey, nandito na si Daddy." I saw Miggy jumping.
I looked at him, still clueless on what was happening. He just smiled at me and pulled me to his side, his hand on my waist. "Good afternoon, Sir Thirdy and Ma'am Bea." Napatingin ako sa nagsasalita, sya yung babaing nakita namin kanina. "Kids, quiet muna. Batiin nyo muna ang ating mga bisita."
"Hello po Daddy Thirdy..." Sabay sabay nilang bati ngunit natigilan ang mga bata habang nakatingin sa akin, natatawa naman si Thirdy.
He even pulled me closer and said, "Call her Mommy Bea."
"Hello po Mommy Bea." The kids greeted in unison. My heartbeat skipped as I heard them calling me Mommy.
The woman went near us. "Sir Thirdy, Ma'am Bea upo po muna kayo. Pacensya na po kayo Ma'am hindi na po ako nakapagpakikala kanina, ako po si Ana." She offered her hand and I accepted it for a hand shake. "Isa po ako sa mga taga pangasiwa ng Concordia Children's Services Inc. Maraming maraming salamat po sa suporta at tulong nyo Sir at Ma'am. Nareceive na po namin yung groceries na ipinadala nyo." The paper that he gave to the supermarket staff last night, yun siguro yon.
I looked at Thirdy and he just smiled at me sweetly before he speak. "Not a problem Ana. Alam mo namang napamahal na sa akin ang mga bata. Hindi ako magsasawang tumulong sa inyo, kami ni Bea."
"Salamat po talaga. Tuwang tuwa po ang mga bata at nailabas po namin ulit sila. Excuse me lang po Sir at Ma'am, tutulong lang po ako magdistribute ng pagkain." Ana said and immediately left us.
I felt so guilty on how I acted earlier. Thirdy deserves my trust. "Babe." I looked into his eyes and held his hand. "I am sorry. I'm really sorry." He pressed my hand and showed me his smile. "I should not acted that way. I am sorry, Babe." I said shyly.
"Babe, don't feel sorry. I understand you." He said and kissed my hand. "Sino ba naman ang hindi magugulat at maguguluhan diba. A baby boy called your boyfriend as Daddy, hindi ba mag iinit ang ulo mo nun? Hindi ka ba magagalit? Babe, I'm sorry. May kasalanan din ako kasi dapat inexplain ko na agad sa iyo. Pero I waited for you kasi to ask me. Kaso hindi mo naman ako kinakausap. So hinayaan na lang kita." He pulled me closer to his side and kissed my temple. "I want to surprise you din kasi kaya di ko na sinabi agad sayo. I know you would love them." Thirdy pointed the kids that were busy on their food.
"I am sorry Babe. And you are right, I love them already. They are so cute." I said and showed him my sweetest smile.
"Yey. Finally, you are smiling na Babe." He said and pinched my cheek.
"Aray naman Babe." I said sabay hawak sa cheek ko.
"Baby, anong naramdaman mo when they called you Mommy earlier?" Thirdy asked and looked intently to my eyes.
