"Our son is handsome he even got my eyes, nose... He got your lips, cheeks, and even the style of your ears but he got the shape of my head."
Natawa talaga ako kay Finn habang tutok na tutok siya kay Lush Zaiden Fex, he's really amazed with our bambi.
"Syempre dapat may resemblance naman ako sa anak ko, I carried him anyway."
"Lush Zaiden Fex..." He utter then wipe his son's tears, kakaiyak lang kasi ni bambi dahil gusto pa daw dumede pero sobra naman kung papadedehen ko pa siya. Baka mamaya niyan ay susuka na naman siya. "I like your name anak, astig..."
"Dza-ddy?!" Bambi pointed at his nose and Finn nodded.
"Yes anak, I am your daddy Finn."
I sat beside them while listening at their conversation. Kahit nahihirapang magsalita si bambi ay sinusubukan parin makadaldal lang.
I took my camera out and pointed the lens and took a video of them. This will keep a memory of them. It will not be forgotten, their first met.
After a day, I was shocked yet happy when Finn proposed again. We planned on getting married after a week. It wasn't simple but it was extravagant. It was lola Ursula's request and we don't have a choice but to hear her suggestions.
"Mommy! Uwaa!"
"Daddy, she's b-bad!"
Finn is hugging me from behind my back when we heard cries and sobs coming from their playground.
We ran outside then I saw pumpkin and cupcake taking away their own toys from each other.
I carried pumpkin which is Louanna Fheye and Finn carried cupcake which is Luigi Ezabeth.
I look at in the eyes of Louanna and squinted my eyes. "Didn't I told you to share each other's toys?" Rinig ko ring kinakausap ni Finn si Luigi, more on pinagsasabihan.
Louanna pouted and she shook her head. "She gets everything, mommy. N-No left for me."
"Okay ganito nalang mix your toys with her and then play what you guys want, did you get it?"
The nodded in unison. We watched how they agreed to share their toys and I feel relieved after seeing that they're already okay with each other.
Louanna is actually older than Luigi for 4 minutes, yes... They are twins, identical twins kaya ang mga kamag-anak namin ay nahihirapan na alamin kung sino si Louanna at kung sino si Luigi sakanila. Pero sa amin ay hindi kasi medyo mataba si Louanna atsaka may birthmark ito sa kamay.
"Play! Give me the barbie pumpkin!" Ayon na naman umuusok ang ilong ni Luigi. Ito namang si Louanna ay kalmado lang pero sa huli ay ibinigay ang laruan kay Luigi.
I pinched Luigi in her cheeks. "Cupcake, anak... Don't do that to your sister okay? That is bad and you might hurt Louanna's feelings. Bad iyon okay? Masama iyon at magalit si God."
"G-God?"
"Oo anak kaya dapat share kayo."
"Mommy..." She raised her hands then cupped my cheeks.
"Hmm?"
"Sorry, bad si cupcake."
"That's okay but don't do it again. Be good woth each other para hindi iiyak si mommy, okay po?"
"Okay po mommy." She said then she stood up and walk near her sister. I saw how she hugged Louanna and my heart melted.
Sakto namang dumating ang kuya bambi nila na kakagaling school lang at nang makitang nagyayakapan ang dalawang kapatid ay tinakbo niya at niyakap ang dalawa.
I blinked my eyes for multiple times as I am staring at the beautiful sight infront of me.
"I can't believe they grew up so fast, Euphoria. Parang ako lang rin tumanda sa ating dalawa at para ka paring dalaga."
Kinurot ko ang kanyang kamay na nakayakap mula sa aking likuran.
"Kung ano-ano sinasabi mo diyan, tignan mo nga iyang mga anak natin. They're sweet with each other. I hope it won't change, takot ako na dumating iyong araw na may hindi sila pagkakaintindihan tapos..."
"That won't happen. We sure won't tolerate them if that happens in the future but since we're both strict but not controlling parents then I presume that what ever path they will take, basta magkasama sila ay masaya ako, susuportahan natin sila anytime."
I reach for his lips to get a kiss.
"Ewww!" My eyes grew bigger when I realized we have our kids with us. Lumayo ako kaagad kay Finn at umayos nang tayo at hinarap ang mga bata nang sa ganoon ay nakita kong nakatakip ang mga kamay ni bambi sa mga kapatid.
Finn smiled proudly at his son. "Good job, anak."
Pinandilatan ko siya kaya naman agad siyang umiwas ng tingin.
Pagkatapos ng break ko ay bumalik ako sa office dahil marami narin akong trabahong naiwan, may mga dokumento akong kailangang ayusin para sa mga nagrerequest ng charity sa town ng Quezon. I just need to have a background check sa taong nagpasa ng papel so I called Cohen.
"Mayor, you called?"
"You don't have to be formal besides uhm- can you help me with investigating this person?"
"Oh, sure thing missis ni Finn. Just send me the names and pictures and then I'll do the rest."
"Okay, thank you!"
"Walang anuman..."
"Mayor, may kailangan ka pa po?" Tanong ng aking sekretarya pagkatapos niyang inilagay ang baso ng kape sa aking mesa.
"Hindi na, salamat."
I have been working in the politics for almost 3 years. My husband also a d suddenly I learned to love the job I used to hate.
Gustong-gusto ng mga tao iyong pa-program ko kada isang buwan, feeding program. Kasama na din doon iyong free lahat ang tatanggapin ng mga bata na school supplies.
Malapit nang matapos ang termino ko may mga taong nagsasabi na pwede pa daw ako tumakbo sa susunod. Minahal ko itong trabaho ngunit kailangan muna ako nang mga anak ko. Ipapaubaya ko nalang kay Finn dahil alam ko doon siya masaya, masaya narin naman siya sa kahit anong trabaho raw pero sakanya talaga nababagay ang maging politician sa pamilyang ito.
I noticed my son Lush, he seems to be sad when he got home from school. Kay tahimik niya na siyang sinusunod ng kanyang yaya.
Pinigilan ko si yaya Marly at kinausap.
"Hindi ko po alam ang buong pangyayari eh ma'am pero narinig ko silang nagsasalita sa anak ng writer na si Cathy Romero. Pareho silang daycare at mukhang nag-away."
"Sige, ako nang bahala." Tumango si yaya at pumasok sa kanyang kuwarto. Ako naman ay humarap sa mga yaya nila pumpkin at cupcake na pinapakain ang mga ito. "Kakausapin ko na muna ang isa kong anak." Sabi ko at mukhang naintindihan naman ng dalawa.
"Bambi?" I knocked in his room door and when no one's answering. I opened it only to hear his sobs.
He quickly wiped his tears and stood when he looked at me. "Mommy, I am not supposed to be crying but I am hurt."
"Silly." I hugged him. "It doesn't matter if you're crying. But what's the problem, anak? Care to share to mommy?"
"You promise you won't laugh?"
"Of course, bambi. Why would I?"
He sighed. "Okay, here it is. I have this girl type but she likes another guy. But I like her. We argued because she told me that I am not tall. She doesn't like short guys like me."
"Oopss, really? Then she must have to wait for the time that you'll grow taller than her crush. I believe that time will come."
"Really mommy?" His eyes glistened with excitement.
Tumango ako. "Oo naman. Tsaka super duper gwapo mo, anak."
"I love you mommy..."
I caressed his back. "Mahal din kita anak."
Nakarinig kami ng yabag hudyat na paparating ang aking asawa na hawak-hawak ang twins sa magkabilang kamay. "Sali kami!"
The twins giggled. Aww, the sounds I wanted to hear years ago. The dream I once dreamed about a family. The unexpected things happened thought us many things, we learned to grow each other's mistakes. We faced difficulties but looking at now, I am happy. We're happy!
And maybe in our next journeys that we might face difficulties and misunderstandings but it is a part of problems in a family, no family is perfect but for me... They are perfect for me to be my family.
