Epilogue
TARIQ
"Daddy!! Wake up! Wake up! Breakfast is ready!"
I silently cursed nang marinig ko ang matinis na sigaw ni Storm sa aking kaliwang tainga. Napabalikwas pa ako nang dahil sa ingay niya.
I sighed. Kinuha ko siya at kinandong. "Sweetheart, how many times did I tell you not to wake me up like that? You can tap me instead."
She giggled. "Sorry po." She then kissed me on my cheek.
Bahagya kong kinurot ang kaniyang pisngi. "Where's Snow?" Tanong ko. Lagi kasi nitong kasama ang kakambal kapag ginigising ako.
"She's with Mommy." Tumayo siya at bumaba ng kama. I smiled when she jumped out of the bed. My six year old daughter is so cute. "Daddy, I'm gonna wake up Kuya." Aniya at mabilis na lumabas nang kwarto.
Bumangon na ako at nag-ayos para bumaba. I went to the dining pero wala doon si Via. "Sir nasa garden po sila Ma'am. Doon daw po kayo mag-aagahan." Our helper said. That's new, ngayon lang yata kami mag-aalmusal sa garden.
I thanked her at pumunta doon. I saw Via and Snow wearing a matching outfits , a white flowy dress. Nakakandong si Snow sa mommy. They are giggling habang nakaupo sa picnic mat. Seeing this scene warms my heart.
"Daddy!" Tawag ni Snow. Napalingon ako. I saw Snow with Lewes. Tumakbo siya papunta sa akin. I picked her up. When I looked at Via, she is already looking at us. She has this sweet smile. That sweet smile that always makes me fall for her.
Hanggang ngayon ay hindi pa rin ako makapaniwala na ako talaga ang pinili niya. That she chose to stay with me. "Daddy stop staring at mommy and start walking!" Storm said.
Lewes laughed at his sister's bossiness. "And why are you laughing Kuya? Start walking too!"
Now it's my turn to laugh. Lewes tsked. "Ginusto mong magkaroon ng kapatid, di ba? Kung makahingi ka noon daig mo pa nag-order sa fastfood." Tukso ko.
He looked at me sharply. "You tricked me into wanting one! You even tricked me about half siblings. I literally thought that they are human beings with half body and in vertical way!"
Lalong lumakas ang tawa ko habang naglalakad papunta kina Via. "Good morning, hon " I greeted my wife with a kiss on the cheek when I reached her.
"Good morning. Why are you laughing?" She asked. Nagpalit ng pwesto ang kambal. Si Storm na ang nakakandong kay Via ngayon habang si Snow ay kumandong sa akin pagkatapos niyang batiin ang kaniyang kuya na ngayon ay nakangiti na. Lewes is always a softie when it comes to his sister.
"Nothing, hon. I'm just teasing Lewes."
"Daddy, Kuya, what do you think about my dress? Mommy and I are the same." Tumayo ito at umikot-ikot para ipakita ang kaniyang damit.
"It's pretty, sweetheart."
"It suit you. So cute and pretty." Lewes said.
Nakita kong napasimangot si Storm. "O bakit ka nakasimangot, aling makulit?" It was Lewes who asked.
"Pare-pareho dapat kami pero wala pang limang minuto nadumihan na niya. She accidentally spilled her milk on her dress." Paliwanag ni Via.
"It's ok. At least pareho pa rin kayo ng kulay ng dress." Sabi ko kay Storm.
"Mommy, kapag nalaba na iyong dress ko I'm gonna wear it again." Storm said.
"Yes, baby but be careful next time." She said with her sweet voice.
