THE ONLY EXCEPTION

CHAPTER 38

I open the door ang saw him sitting on the bed while busy playing games on his ipad that his tita Angela bought him. Angela really spoiled him.

"Baby." Tawag ko sa kanya. He looked at me and hide his iPad kahit nakita ko na iyon kanina pa.

"It's 9 o'clock already. Go to sleep my prince." Umupo ako sa tabi niya at hinalikan ang pisngi niya. Huminga ito kaya inayos ko ang kumot niya at nilagay sa side table katabi ng lamp ang iPad niya.

"Mymy, papasok po ba ako sa school soon?" I caressed his hair and smiled.

"Yes, my prince. I will enroll you sa malapit na school dito. At we will buy your uniform and school supplies, you want that?" He nodded happily and hug me.

"I love you mymy, kahit hindi mo ako totoong anak." I stilled.

What? How?

"Eros baby..." Hindi ko alam kung ano ang sasabihin dahil sa gulat.

"I know mymy, I heard you and tita Angela talking. It's okay mommy. I will always stay with you. You are my mommy." I sobbed and hugged him tightly.

"Mommy love you so much, my prince. Mahal na mahal kita. Anak kita, you are my son too. No one can change that." I assured him.

I thought telling the truth to Eros is so hard. I'm really thankful that my baby is thoughtful. Every time my friends asked me kung kailan ko sasabihin kay Eros ang totoo sinabi kung may tamang oras para diyan pero ang totoo niya natatakot ako na baka magalit ito sakin, natatakot ako na kamuhian niya ako at ang sarili niya. Natatakot akong isipin niya na hindi siya mahal ng tunay niyang magulang kaya siya binigay sakin.

I want my son to live free and be happy. Contented and loved. Kaya ginawa ko ang lahat para hindi niya isipin iyon pagdating ng araw na sasabihin ko sa kanya ang lahat.

Days turns to a week ay na enrolled ko na si Eros sa grade 2 but because of his IQ the principal enrolled him in grabe 3. Hindi na ako naka-hindi dahil mukha masaya naman si Eros.

Today is friday at bibili kami ng mga gamit niya dahil pasukan na niya sa monday, kasama ko ang dalawang nana dahil pag ako lang ay mahihirapan talaga ko.

Nasa passenger seat si Eros at nasa likod naman ang apat. Hindi naman masikip dahil kasya ang tatlong tao sa back seat.

"Momi, me want uniporm tow ik unni-chan." Zeka excitedly told. Bulol nitong sabi, they speak english and a bit of Japanese and still learning tagalog.

"Soon, lil sis." Sagot ni Eros. Zeka pouted and played with Zeppy who's sleepy.

"We're here." Anunsyo ko. Sabay kami ng mga nana bumaba at tinulongan ang mga anak ko.

"Yey!-- it's hot momi." Here goes the maarteng Zeka.

I looked at the twins and stilled. Wft? Bakit. Tumalikod sila at ang simulang pumasok.

"Mymy are you okay?" Nagaalalang tanong ni Eros. Pilit akong ngumiti at tumango.

"Tara bili tayo ng uniform mo." He smiled happily and nodded.

What was that? Bakit sa angulong iyon ay kamukha nila ang lalaking iyon. Damn it I think my heart beats raise. I admit na may nakuha sila sakin pero minsan talaga nakikita ko ang lalaking iyon sa kambal. I told myself na baka dahil pinaglihian ko siya noon.

Yes pinaglihian ko siya. Hindi ko napigilang gumawa ng dummy account at i-chat siya. Arg and the pregnant me was so damn happy when he reply arg. Pero ng natauhan ako ay i-block him and cried because I really want to see him.
