LEE

I woke up due to the little fingers poking my cheeks. I also heard Kira's chuckle and Raylee's giggle. Naramdaman ko rin ang paggalaw ng kama. I slowly opened my eyes and saw Monica's smiling face as she eyed me, as if she expected something big to happen today.

"Summer," nakangiting sabi niya. She's a four-year-old kid with long straight black hair, pink thin lips and big brown eyes. She looks just like me when I was still a kid. Beside her is her older brother, Raylee, six years old, who tried to tickle Kira to wake him up – a handsome mischievous boy with short black hair and a wide cheeky grin.

"Wake up! Wake up! Can't wait to see the beach Dad! Tara na!" excited na sabi ni Raylee. Monica hugged me and I hugged her back. "Good morning," I said. Raylee kissed me on my right cheek. Kira followed his lead. He kissed me and the kids. I can't help but smile. These three really. They warm my heart. Wala na akong mahihiling pa.

Inabot ko ang telepono at tumawag sa reception. I ordered breakfast and told them to prepare it on the seaside. We arrived last night at the hotel but the kids are already spent so I just let them sleep. Halatang excited sila dahil alas-singko pa lang ng umaga ngayon pero gising na sila.

I stood up to prepare our things. Monica hugged her father. Tumabi naman si Raylee kay Kira at inunan ang braso ng ama niya. I opened the curtains and saw the stunning beach outside. The clear emerald green water was so refreshing. We're staying in Coron, Palawan and its beauty was really a sight to behold. Madalas busy si Kira sa pag-aasikaso ng aming negosyo kaya kapag umuuwi siya, tulog na ang mga bata. He can only properly play and bond with them on the weekends if there are no urgent calls.

Napangiti ako nang matanaw si Katnice na tumatakbo na sa pampang kasama si Venice. She's already ten years old. They both wear pink straw hat, tank tops, sunglasses and shorts. They look cute together. Iisipin ng iba na magkapatid lang sila sa halip na mag-ina.

Sumunod naman si Kevin, kasama si Vien na halatang inaantok pa at naghihikab. Tila ayaw pa niyang bumangon sa kama. He's shivering from the blowing wind. Yakap-yakap niya ang sarili at nakasuot ng puting damit at shorts. Ginugulo ni Kevin ang buhok niya at halatang inaasar. They look like the perfect family.

Our whole family decided on this trip together. Hindi ko pa nakikita sina Mama at Papa. Maybe, they are still in their rooms. Kumaway sa 'kin si Katnice nang makita niya ako. I waved back. Hindi ko pa nakikita si Kuya Aldrin at ang pamilya niya. Ibinalik ko na ang atensiyon kina Monica at Raylee. Isa-isa ko na silang pinaliguan at binihisan.

Nang makapagpalit kami ni Kira ng damit, agad kaming hinila nina Monica at Raylee palabas sa silid. Nakita pa namin sina Mama at Papa na palabas na rin sa hotel. "Lola! Lolo!" tawag nina Monica at Raylee. Tumakbo sila patungo sa kanila at humalik sa kanilang pisngi.

Nakita rin namin si Kuya Aldrin na nagpapaayos ng mga upuan at mesa. "Lee!" tawag ni Kuya Aldrin at kumaway pa. "Umorder ka na raw ng pagkain para sa 'tin. Pinaayos ko na rin ang mga mesa. Bumili na rin kami ng pwedeng ihawin mamaya."

"Tita Lee!" tawag sa 'kin ni Katnice. Tumakbo siya papunta sa 'min habang hawak sa isang kamay ang sumbrebro na nilipad ng hangin dahil sa pagtakbo niya. Agad siyang nagmano sa 'min ni Kira. Ginulo ni Kira ang buhok niya kaya agad siyang sumimangot.
