"I'm missing our daughter so much, love." Malungkot na hayag ko sa aking asawa. Dinaluhan naman ako nito sa kama at niyakap nang mahigpit.

"Ano ka ba, your parents are just spoiling their first grand daughter."

"Ang tagal nilang ibalik si Alessia." Maktol ko rito. Ito naman ay dumukwang para hadkan ang aking labi ng mabilis dahil busy ito sa inaaral na kaso. Sa wakas at bumalik na rin siya sa kanyang passion. Noong malubha pa kase ang lagay ni Alessia ay iniwan niya ang pag aabogasya. May guilt sa puso ko sa t'wing naiisip ko ang mga panahong wala manlang akong magawa para sa kanila.

"Nevada is miles away from here, we can't snatch her right away." Natatawa nitong sabi saken.

"Aren't you going to the university? It's Monday." Takang Tanong ko rito.
Naka bihis na kase ito kanina kaya nag taka akong nagpalit ito ng damit.

"You're sad. I don't want to go to work knowing my little wife here is not on the mood." Tumaas ang kilay ko para pigilan ang pag ngiti.

"I'm still in awe everytime you call me your wife." I bit my inside cheek.

"We're married for almost a year already." Namamangha itong tumingin saken. I pinched her cheek lightly she's blushing like a smitten teenager. Hays.

"Awe so beautiful." I dreamily caressed her smooth face and leaned to kiss her chin.

"Do you want to get married again?" Natawa ako sa tanong nito, we first did in  Ice land, France, then Wales, and now she's asking again.

"Who am I to say no?" Ngumiti ito sinakop muli ang labi ko.

"I want it in Switzerland this time."

"Sounds amazing, " I murmured while burying my face on her neck.

She's serious when she told me that she'll marry me in every country that we will visit in the future.
Ang sabi nito ay para mahirapan akong i divorce siya sa dami ng bansang itinali namin ang sarili sa isat isa.
Naloka ako noong una sympre, but this woman holding me tightly in her arms is the love of my life.

"But really Sere, I will not divorce you baby. Stop with the intrusive thoughts all right?"

"You can't blame me. You might want to try girls your age." Natawa ako sa tinuran nito pero natigil din bigla nang mag bago ang timpla ng mukha nito.

"You're laughing too much. You're thinking about it noh." Lumuwag ang yakap nito at nag ambang aalis sa kama kaya nag madali akong ipulupot ang mga kamay ko aa bewang nito.

"Shh stop it love, I don't want them." I rolled my eyes.

Common problem when you're partner is older than you. Napa iling nalang ako.
How can we assure them, really?
She's cute whenever she's jealous but the other side of it I feel bad, because I'm afraid she isn't secured. Assured. And that, I'm working so hard to give her assurance.
She deserves everything after all.

"My wife is a bad ass lawyer. She's a great mom and the sexiest, beautiful, loving and caring wife to me." I stared directly on her eyes. "I couldn't ask for more Sere, and on top of everything I'm crazy in love with her." We stared at each other, savoring our soft hours talking to each other, feeling each other.

The familiar smell of my favorite pastry woke me from my sa tied sleep. Napangiti ako dahil alam na alam ko pagkaing iyon. Simula kase nung mga nangyari sa buhay ko sa mga nakaraang taon ay hindi na ako ulit naka tikim ng cannoli. I once mentioned it to Serenity, my heart melts that she remembered.

"Sere did you really—I beamed happily peeking what's in the oven.

"Got it right," Natatawa nitong sabi. I caressed her hips and give her chaste kiss on the side of her lips.
