Desirous Men 3: CLYDE | Completed

Epilogue

HINDI magkaugaga si Nori sa paghahanda nang hapunan nila. It's almost six in the evening. Her husband will be home soon, and so she had to prepare their dinner. But she smiled remembering she doesn't have to do it alone.

She was trying on this new recipe, hindi nya alam kung masarap ba ang magkakaluto nya. Well, no choice ang kanyang asawa dahil yun ang hapunan nila. Besides, she cooked everything with love. Malaki ang points nun di ba?

Balak nya pa sanang maligo pagkatapos sana magluto pero mukhang hindi na mangyayari yun—

"Mommy, what's for dinner?."

Napalingon si Nori para tignan ang batang nagsalita. It was her son Carlton, and behind him was his twin brother Vale, carrying a toy truck in his hand. The two most adorable boys in her eyes.

Nori smiled to her three years old twins.

"Mommy is trying new dish for daddy." Nori said.

Vale grinned. "Can I try?."

Gustuhin man nyang kargahin ang anak ay alam nyang hindi nya kakayanin, lumalaking malulusog ang kanilang mga anak.

"Here, baby."

Isinubo nya sa bibig nito ang sauce nang kanyang bagong putahe, magkatapos subuan si Vale ay si Carlton naman ang isinunod nya.

Nakita nyang nagkatinginan ang dalawa. Tuloy ay gusto nyang matawa sa hitsura nang dalawa.

"I don't think Daddy will like it." Sambit ni Vale sabay kamot sa ulo nito.

Kumunot ang noo ni Carlton. "I like it." Her sons was smart enough to console her.

Kahit mga bata pa ay alam na nya ang pagkakaiba nang dalawa. Vale is more cheeky and loves to play around while Carlton was more calm and compose. And she and Clyde love them equally.

She likes to think that Vale has Clyde's personality while Carlton got hers.

Yumakap sa kanyang hita si Vale, naglalambing. "Mommy, can I have sausage for dinner instead, please?..."

Ginulo nya ang buhok nito at pinisil ang matambok na pisngi. "Okay, I prepare sausage for you." She looked at her other kid. "How about you young man?." She smiled.

Carlton push forward and hug her other side. "I'll have the one you cooked." Paglalambing din nito.

"Okay, now why don't you two, help me prepare the table. Daddy will be here soon."

Maingat nyang iniabot dito ang mga plato, kutsara at tinidor. Pati ang paglalagay nang baso ay pinaubaya nya sa dalawa. At the very young age, they're smart and can easily figure things out.

Gusto nyang matawa nang makita nya kong papaano umakyat sa kanilang dining chair si Vale at inilalapag sa lamesa ang mga plato habang ang kapatid naman nito ang nag-aabot mula sa ibaba.

Pagkatapos makapagpalit nang damit ay narinig nyang may kumusyon sa kanilang sala.

Clyde is home.

Pababa na sya nang hagdan nang makitang karga-karga ni Clyde ang dalawa nilang anak.

He smiled to her as soon as he meet her gaze.

Almost five years of their marriage, and nothing have change. She still get all the butterflies in her stomach everytime their eyes meet. Her love to her husband gets stronger everyday she sees him.

"Hi, love." Clyde gave her a quick kiss on the lips.

"Hi, handsome." She greeted back.

"I'am handsome." Vale pouted.
