5 years passed
Pagod akong umuwi ng bahay, the clinic has a lot of dog and cat patients dahil nagkaroon nga naman ng infection, halos isang barangay na nga yung na apektuhan.
I gently open the door, alas nuebe na ng gabi kase nga natagalan ako, may inoperahan kase akong pusa at aso kanina tas' it me 7 hours to finish each surgery. My wife kept on reminding me to take a day off kase masyado na raw malaki ang eyebags ko. Speaking of my wife and I, we've been married for 5 years na. Our relationship is way stronger than a sticker glue, may mga panahon na may konting tampuhan at away pero in the end, we learned the communication, forgiveness and faith will keep us stronger through ups and downs.
I put my white coat on the sofa bago hinubad ang dalawang sapatos, masyado ng tahimik ang bahay kase alam kong nakatulog na ang pamilya ko.
Inilibit ko ang paningin sa boung Bahay, it's a big house planned and gifted by my brother, tumulong rin ang parents ni Cassy sa pagpagawa ng bahay namin, halos gawin na ngang mansion eh but I insisted na di masyadong malaki. They even planned to put an elevator para daw di na kami mahirapan sa kakaakyat.
Our house is the most beautiful and amazing one, maiba yung straktura nito, napakamalinis at maraming appliances, marami din kaming guestrooms and our living room is a wide space area followed by our kitchen.
Tahimik kong tinahak ang daan patungo sa itaas, to our bedroom. While climbing upstairs ay makikita mo ang mga picture frames namin. We have picture on our wedding day, may nakasabit din na picture noong ikinasal na si ate at si Jenny, we have pictures when we spent our honeymoon at Hawaii, may picture din ako kasama sina Helen, Teresa at Luisa, we have pictures together with our whole family during dinner night back in dece two years ago.
We made a lots of memories. Napatingin ako sa singsing na nagsisimbolo na ikinasal ako sa pinakamagandang babae na nakita ko noong inutusan ako ni ate Jihye na bumili ng toyo. I chuckles at the memory I suddenly remembered.
I slowly open our bedroom door, malaki ang kwarto namin ni Cassandra, kulay pula ang mga kurtina at may balcony sa gilid. We have our picture frame on top of the table beside the bed.
Doon bumungad ang natutulog kong asawa kasama ang 3 years old son namin. Nakayakap sila sa isat-isa, agad namang nawala ang pagod na nararamdaman ko.
Yes, after getting married Cassandra immediately undergo In Vitro Fertilization(IVF), the doctor said that she is healthy enough to proceed so after we failed two times, we didn't give up until the procedure was a success, nabuntis s'ya for 9 months and gave birth to a healthy baby boy.
Kuhang kuha ng anak ko ang mata at eyebrows ng mommy nya isama mo narin ang yellowish hair nito, pero sakin n'ya naman nakuha ang matangos nitong ilong at mapulang labi pati narin ang height n'yang mataas, his soft and white skin na parang pinag-lihi sya ni Cassandra sa snow. Halos lahat ng pamilya namin ay nagdiwang sa bunga namin ni Cassandra.
Mom Annabelle even conducted a live news and nagpa fireworks pa nga ito. Si Papa Castro naman ay binilhan ang anak namin ng isang yacht na kulay pula. He's just three years old pero marami na itong mga nakukuhang mamahaling gamit mula sa amin. They are spoiling him too much, especially my wife. Pero wala naman akong problema kase kahit na spoiled ang anak ko, he remains as a humble baby boy. Iniingatan n'ya talaga ang mga gamit na regalo ng lolo at Lola n'ya.
"Dada?"
Nagising na pala ito.
"Yes baby? Did I woke you up?" Mahinang tanong ko.
He shook his head adorably at yumakap sa akin, pumatong ito sa kandungan ko and burying his cheek on my chest.
"Dada, mommy said that when you get home you should sleep because you're tired from work." He said, his eyes are still sleepy.
Mahina ko itong kinarga at inilagay sa gilid ng asawa kong tulog parin.
"You have to sleep na, hm? I just need to take a bath then I'll sleep with you okay?"
Mahina itong tumango bago yumakap sa mommy nya. Binigyan ko din ng halik sa noo ang asawa ko at anak ko bago pumunta sa banyo para mag half bath.
Kinabukasan, nagising ako nung may naramdamang init sa hita ko. I slowly open my eyes and bumungad ang maganda umaga, it's already Saturday so I'm taking a day off. Alas siete na pala. Mahina akong bumangon ng kama at pumunta sa banyo para maghilamos.
Bumaba ako ng may narinig na hagikhik ng anak ko sa living room. Pagkatapos kong bumaba ay bumungad sa akin ang anak kong nakikipag laro kay Red, naghahabulan ito na parang tom and Jerry.
Nagluluto naman sa kusina si Cassandra kase abot dito ang masarap na amoy ng pagkain.
She's cooking with her red color apron. My hands slowly sneaks behind her and hugged her from behind.
"Good morning, baby." Bati ko, I kissed her neck while hugging her.
She turned her head para lingonin ako. She immediately smiled and greeted me back.
"How's your sleep? You hungry?" Tanong nya sabay halik sa ilong ko.
I nodded. "Yes, should I eat you instead?" Biro ko.
"Eat me tonight, baby. For now you need meal to recharge your energy." Nakataas kilay n'yang sagot.
Tumawa ako. Masungit as always.
"Dada? Dada! Good morning!" Masayang bati ng anak ko bago yumakap at nagpakarga.
"Hey, how's your sleep? You little ghost Casper." Ginulo ko ang buhok nito.
"Dada, lola and Lolo are visiting us today! I already bathe Red and he's wearing his cute tuxedo." Wika nito.
Tumango ako bago inikot ito sa ere.
"Casper, don't bathe Red during cold seasons okay?"
He nods while putting his lips together. "Yes po Da,"
Maya't maya ay dumating nadin sina Mom Anabelle at si Castro na may dala-dalang pagkain at regalo. Even my parents are here, my siblings and my friends even paid us a visit.
"Hello there my little grandboy," agad namang niyakap ni Anabelle si Casper at pinisil ang pisnge nito.
"Hi Lola!" He kissed her cheeks.
"You have gotten so big? Oh, did you draw this? Can I buy this baby? Lola's gonna put this in a billboard in our company at Russia."
Oh here we go again.
"Yes mom, make it bigger." Sagot naman ng asawa ko.
"Casper, I have a gift for you. It's a drone, wanna play with Lolo?" Nakangiting alok ni Castro sa apo.
"No, Casper is gonna play with me," si Anabelle naman. "Baby, wanna ride a helicopter? How about an airplane?"
"No, Ana. My grandboy is gonna his spend his time with his handsome Lolo."
At nagtalunan na nga ang mag-asawa.
