"Mami!" Skyla immediately ran into me as I entered the door. I carried her while she's kissing me on my face. My stress reliever.

I just got home from my work, I am working on a bank as an accountant. It took me a year to go back to work because I can't leave Sky.

Hindi madali ang mga nagdaang limang taon lalo na iyong mga una. Mabuti na lamang ay sapat na ang naipon ko noon para sa amin ng anak ko, may iniwan ding pera ang ate para sa akin. I made lots of adjustments, I was with Uno and Avril with those trying times. I know they also had a secret battle so I did the same thing to them, I never leave them.

"Manang did my baby did well today?" I asked Manang.

Noong nilibing si ate ay nagkita kami at nagpasya siya na sumama sa akin sa Isla pabalik. Siya ang naging katuwang ko sa pag aalaga kay Skyla dahil madalas Wala si Uno at Avril dahil sa trabaho.

"Oo naman! Napakabait na bata parang ikaw lang noon" Skyla giggled because she likes being compared to me.

My other friends has no idea about what happened to me, Uno and Avril's mouth was shut when it comes to me. Ang alam lang nila ay nagtatrabaho ako dito sa Manila. Nakakausap ko sila through social media paminsan minsan but I never had a chance to meet them for the entire years. Hindi ko din alam kung handa na ba akong harapin sila. Wala na din akong balita kay Trish at Quin.

I always have a rough days dahil medyo hassle sa trabaho but, every time I go home nawawala lahat ng pagod ko dahil ang yakap at halik ni Skyla ang unang sasalubong sa akin. It used to be her dad before.

I set aside that thought because I don't wanna think about it anymore, for years that passed I had no news about him. I never heard about him anymore. Siguro ay masaya na siya ngayon.

"Mami"

"Yes love?"

"Do you think Dad will come back?" Tanong niya isang gabi habang binibihisan ko siya para sa pagtulog.

"W-why did you ask?"

"I just wanted to know Mi"

I know she's longing for a Dad, kahit hindi niya sabihin ay Alam ko iyon. I am her mother so I should know it.

Sky is so smart, mukhang nakuha niya iyon sa amin ng Dad niya so, even at her age she understand that her Dad was away to catch his dreams.

Nakatulog na din siya pagkatapos noon. Kinaumagahan ay maaga akong nagising to cook breakfast for us.

"Good morning Philippines! Gosh! It's so hot here!" someone shouted from our behind while we're eating breakfast.

"Tita Mami!" Skyla immediately ran towards Avril. For sure madami nanaman itong pasalubong para sa kaniya. They spoiled Skyla with everything, minsan ay pinagsasabihan ko sila pero tinatawanan lang nila ako.

"Oh my baby! Tita Mami missed you so much"

"It took you so long to comeback"

"I just had an errands" there's something on her eyes that changed. It was more lively and full of joy. Sana ay magtuloy tuloy na dahil deserve niya ang sumaya.

"Welcome back sis" I hugged her but she immediately get out of my arms.

"Kadiri sis! Ano ka bata?" I pouted, she's so unfair. Mahahalata mo ang favoritism niya dahil Kay Skyla lang siya malambing.

We ate breakfast together. Pagkatapos ay nag aya si Avril na magshopping. Mukhang nakatulog na siya bago umuwi dito kaya may energy siyang mag akit.

Binihisan ko si Skyla ng simpleng shorts and shirt then a boots. Her boots were customized dahil nakalagay pa doon ang pangalan niya 'Skyla Azter'.

I named her Skyla Azter because she's been my clear sky and shining star. I also wanted to follow her first name to her Dad para kahit doon manlang ay hindi ko siya ipagdamot sa Dad niya. She's using my surname dahil hindi ko din naman alam Kung tama bang gamitin ko ang apelyido ng tatay niya.
