Ann's POV
After ng pictorial ko, pinadiretso ako ni Tim sa condo nya.
Hindi ko parin nasasabi sa kanya na may anak kami, hindi ko rin naman kasi alam kung nagkabalikan na ba kami o ewan eh. Basta sa 3 months na yun, nagkakatukaan minsan sa condo nya tapos ihahatid nya ako sa bahay, pero sa labas ng gate lang.
Jusko anak patawarin mo ang nanay mong humaharot sa tatay mo, sinusulit ko lang kapag kasi nagkakilala kayo, alam kong nasa iyo na atensyon nya eh, sorry na talaga anak.
Pagkarating ko sa condo nya, nagpapicture pa yung ibang staff, bago ako nakapasok sa mismong unit nya. Pagpasok ko sa loob, nakabihis sya.
"Pinapunta mo ko dito tapos aalis ka pala, napakahusay mong nilalang" sabi ko at humalukipkip habang tinitignan syang magpapogi pa sa salamin.
Hindi pa sya nakakalapit pero amoy na amoy ko na yung pabango nya.
"Mukhang mag date ka ah, pormang porma tayo ah. Sino ka-date mo?" Tanong ko.
Lumingon sya sakin at naglakad papunta sakin.
"Yung ka-date ko, kadarating lang, irarason na naman sakin ang traffic" sabi nya at hinalikan ako sa labi.
"Eh sadya naman talagang matraffi– Teka! Ako yung ka-date mo? Wala akong maalala" sabi ko.
"Yes, ngayon ko palang kasi sasabihin eh. Let's go on a date" sabi nya at hinalikan ako ulit sa labi. "Your lips tastes so sweet, babe" dagdag nya, ako naman nalulunod na sa halik nya sakin.
Naitulak ko sya nang bigla akong mag maalala.
"Asan nga pala si Dharlynne?"
"She's in Australia already, dun na sya nag-aaral aeronautics, hindi namin pinigilan since it's her dream, bantay sarado naman sya dun" sabi nya. "Can I continue kissing my girlfriend now?"
"Girlfriend? Who?"
"Ito nakatayo sa harap ko, kababalik lang from New York after 5 years and now a model, businesswoman, singer, and a mom" sabi nya na ikinagulat ko
"P-P-Paan–"
"I know baby, we have a 5 year old named Trinity Jayce, and guess what, pinaayos ko na apelyido nya, Kuya Eric helped me, so she's officially a Rosales" he confidently said.
"Si Kuya?! You two are communicating? And you did that without asking for my permission? That's my daughter we're talking about, Tim"
"She's also my daughter, babe" sabi nya habang kumakain na ng orange na di ko alam na nabalatan na pala nya. "Fair lang, you also hid her from me, remember that. I want to meet her"
"You're using that card to me, Timothy Jake, hindi gagana sakin yan"
"Fine, I'm sorry. Hindi ko kasi alam kelan mo balak sabihin, Aj accidentally spilled it to me 2 years ago, wag ka magalit sa kanya, sinadya ko syang lasingin kasi madaldal sya pag lasing and I can feel na may tinatago silang sikreto na tungkol sayo, and yun nalaman ko. When you came back, I immediately set a meeting appointment with your brother and sinabi ko lahat sa kanya, kulang nalang is ma-meet ko si Tin. Can I meet her?" Tanong nya habang nakayakap sakin.
So for 2 years na pagtatago, alam na nya that time na may anak kami? Lagutan mo ng hininga si Aj, please Shai.
"Fine, pero ako muna ang kakausap sa kanya, andun sya sa bahay, sabihan ko sila kuya" sabi ko at tumango naman sya.
Pumunta kami sa bahay, at nakita si Tin na andun sa kitchen counter at nanunuod ng barbie sa iPad nya habang kumakain ng snacks.
"Dyan ka muna, kakausapin ko lang" sabi ko at nagstay naman sya sa may pinto ng kitchen. "Baby, Mommy's home" I exclaimed
"Mommy ssshh" pagpapatahimik nya sakin kaya nagtaka naman ako.
"Why?" Pabulong kong tanong, di ko alam para akong uto uto na napasunod ng anak ko.
Napansin kong natawa ng mahina si Tim habang tinitignan kami ni Tin.
"Barbie is hiding and the evil lady wants to capture her. Keep quiet so Barbie won't get caught" sabi nya.
Jusko yun lang pala, narinig ko si Tim na tumatawa ng mahina sa may pinto.
"Baby, can you listen to Mommy first? Later na ikaw ulit mag-watch, Mommy will watch that with you po"
"Promise? You have no work tomorrow?"
"Nope, Mommy took a week off to be with my baby, you want that?"
"Yay! I love you Mommy"
"I love you the most" sabi ko at hinalikan sya sa noo. "So, ahm, remember when you asked me if we'll go back to Daddy and I said I will talk to Daddy first?"
"Is he still mad at us? Doesn't he love Twinity?"
"Ahm baby, I'm with Daddy" sabi ko. Nanlaki yung mata nya at napansin kong nangilid yung luha nya.
"Really?! Where is Daddy, Mommy? Where?!" She excitedly asked kahit na naiiyak na sya.
Lumapit si Tim sa amin and she looked at him.
"D-Daddy?" She asked making sure that's her Daddy.
"Yes, it's Daddy, princess" sabi ni Tim. Ako naman tahimik ng umiiyak dito sa gilid.
She raised her arms at binuhat naman sya agad ni Tim. She immediately hug him and buried her face on his neck tsaka kami nakarinig ng mahihinang iyak.
Kami ni Tim umiiyak narin ng tahimik.
"I love you Daddy. Don't get mad at Mommy already. I missed you Daddy"
Napatingin si Tim sakin sa sinabi ni Trinity
"I told her na galit ka sakin kaya kami umalis, it's less painful for her" sabi ko at yumuko. Inangat naman nya yung mukha ko at hinalikan ako sa noo
"No, princess. Daddy's not mad at Mommy anymore. I've missed you too, and I love you and Mommy the most" sabi nya at niyakap din ng mahigpit si Tin. "I'm sorry. I'm so sorry, Daddy wasn't with you. I promise to make it up to you, ok?"
"Y-Yes, Daddy. I promise to be a good girl just don't leave us again"
"Mommy said you're such a good girl, and I'm so lucky to have such a very good princess. Are you not mad at Daddy?"
I'm really amazed at how Timothy control his emotions. He's crying but remaining calm.
"No, Daddy. I love you Daddy" sabi ni Trinity na humihikbi hikbi pa. "Are you gonna get Mommy and Twinity? Are we going to live in one house?"
"Yes, baby. Daddy will get Mommy and our baby, we will live in one house already, I promise, Daddy won't leave again"
"Mommy, I will pack my clothes" sabi nya
"Why?" Tanong ko.
"We will live with Daddy" sabi nya. Anak agad agad talaga? Kasasabi lang mag iimpake ka agad?
Pareho kaming natawa ni Tim sa sinabi ng anak namin.
"Oh, ahm, anak hindi ganun agad. Mommy and Daddy will need to fix some things muna. You understand that, right?"
"Daddy, go home to Twinity"
"You want Daddy to go home here?"
"Opo" sabi nya habang pinupunasan ni Tim yung luha nya habang nakaupo sya sa counter table
"If that's ok with Mommy and Tito Eric. Kasi baby, if we live together, wala kang kasama sa condo ni Daddy kapag nasa work si Mommy and Daddy, so you'll stay here muna"
"You stay here din, please Daddy. Mommy, can Daddy stay here with us?"
"Of course, he can. Pero Daddy needs to get some of his things muna po. Wait lang, it's your nap time ah, inuto mo na naman si yaya?"
"I want to be with Daddy"
"You take your nap. Daddy will be here when you wake up. Let's go to your room?" Tanong ni Tim at binuhat ulit si Tin at pumunta kami sa room nya para makatulog sya
