"Happy birthday Twins!" Julia ran towards the twins inside their room. She carried them both and hugged them tight. "Ate Julia loves you two."
With a touching sight, the couple Leni and Kit were watching their children having a moment. Kit enveloped right hand on Leni's waist making her rest on his chest.
"Bilis ng panahon baby. 1 year old na ang kambal natin..."
"Hindi pa rin ako makapaniwalang may anak tayong kambal." Leni smiled looking at the twins.
"Sundan natin para maniwala kana." Kit joked.
"Hoy! Akala mo ba madaling manganak? Madali lang magpakasarap."
"Biro lang baby." Kit tightened up his arms around Leni's waist.

"Ma, sure ka ayaw mo maghanda for the twins?" Julia asked her mom while carrying Liam.
"We have so many friends and family to invite, anak. At saka gusto ko masolo kayong apat ng Daddy mo.
"Naks sweet! Alam mo ma, after you gave birth sa twins I noticed na mas sweet kana."
Her daughter said it in a way that Leni's heart was touched. It's true, being a lawyer requires you to be tough, emotionless and strong. But at the same time, Leni's a mother. Motherhood made her feel and see things in a different way.
"Talaga? Is it bad?" Leni stopped from arranging the clothes of the twins for the birthday trip.
"Of course not Ma. I actually love it. Not that i don't love how you were before but it feels good that you are able to express more of your feelings now. Either way, we love you Ma."
Julia sat beside Leni with Liam and Ava who are both busy playing in bed.
"When did my first born grow up?" Leni cupped Julia's face and kissed her forehead.
"May heart to heart talk ang mag-ina ko ah." Kit suddenly showed up. He is already dressed and ready to go. Simply wearing a white polo shirt, maong shorts and his white sneakers. Kit brushed his hair backwards while looking at his wife, as it was falling on his forehead.
"Hi dad! Pogi ah."
"Well, kaya na-inlove Mama mo eh."
"Feeling!" Leni goes back in preparing the things for the twins.
"Okay bago kayo magharutan diyan parents, I'm gonna get ready na."
Julia left the room. The twins were being the good babies themselves, just playing with each other.
"Bihis na baby, para di tayo abutan ng lunch dito."
"Yes wait lang. Ayusin ko lang bottles."
"Hmmm. Why are you not looking at me?"
"Ha? Wala. Nag-aayos pa kasi ako oh."
Leni facing Kit backwards, he grabbed her waist and turned her around. Now, their bodies are touching. Kit's arms embraces the body of Leni, pulling her closer to him. With a shocked expression on Leni's face, eyes directly looking at him.
"Kiss." Kit said.
"What?"
"Ang sabi ko kiss."
"Okay..."
She followed her husband's request. Leni kissed her husband quickly. Kit was expecting for a longer one until Leni moved her face away.
"Yun na yon? Baby naman."
"Hay nako, ang galawan mo Atty. Belmonte. Alam ko na yan."
"Gusto ko lang naman ng kiss mo eh."
"Mamaya. Kahit ilan pa."
"Yes! Sabi mo yan ah!"
"Oo na nga. By the way, you look extra handsome in that get up."
Kit blushed upon hearing the compliment from her wife. It makes him want to kiss her. But he won't, he will obey his wife and wait for tonight.

"We're here!" Julia crashed into the bed and laid down. The twins are taking their nap on the connecting room. They settled down and fixed their things.
Leni decided to have a staycation instead of throwing a birthday party for the twins. The original plan was to celebrate with their families but the couple thought of spending time with their children. Kit being extra busy with his cases and Leni being a mom and a full time lawyer. The both of them filed a vacation leave for a week, just in time for Julia's semestral break.
"Anong food gusto niyong kainin? I'll order na."
"Ikaw." Kit whispered. Leni heard it and gave him a warning look.
"Pasta, ma. And then cake. Also pizza. Chicken too!
"Okay okay noted. Grab na lang."
"Tabihan ko muna yung kambal, parents. I'm sleepy." Julia went inside the connecting room.
Leni is keeping herself busy by ordering the food for lunch. She's standing near the TV. Meanwhile, Kit is seating on the chair across the bed, looking at her wife. Leni feels that she was being stared at. She looked at him.
"Belmonte umayos ka."
"Ano? Wala akong ginagawa ah."
"Yang mata mo meron. Kanina ka pa."
"Tumitingin lang. Can't I just look at my very sexy and gorgeous wife?"
Leni melted hearing those words from her husband, who is so handsome by just comfortably seating down.
"You can. Hanggang tingin lang."
"Why? Wala naman yung mga bata dito. Nakaclose yung door nila."
Kit stood up and slowly walked towards Leni. His wife's distracting herself using her phone. She then stepped backwards when she saw Kit is approaching.
In a split second, Kit is now carrying Leni. All the giggles echoed the room. Kit hurled Leni in bed.
"Babyyyy! Bakit may paghagis?!"
Kit crawled into the bed, teasing Leni who is gasping for air.
"I'll get all those kisses, Leonor. Hindi mo na ko mapipigilan."
His wife gave in.
