"Ace! Wag lalayo kay nanay mahirap ka pa naman hanaping bata ka" ace is now three medyo makulit na nga eh, manang mana kay tatay

"Nanay laro na ace eh"

"Oh sge laro kana dun" tatlong taon ko na silang hindi nakikita, hindi ko parin alam paano kayo hanapin, alaya is turning eighteen next next month, nangako pa naman ako sa kanya na ako mag aayos sa kanya pero hindi ko naman alam paano sila kausapin man lang wala rin akong magawa
--
"Alaya? Kumain na kayo" pangyaya ko kay alaya

"Thank you mommy rwen"

"Mommy rwen! What's for dinner?"

"Hmm? Adobo"

"Yes! Ate eisy come on"

"Gio and gia also kuya aiden" i said

"Okay mommy rwen"

"Mom, lalabas kami ni ate laya bukas? Please please" tumawa ako at inikot yung mata ko

"Teenagers"

"Mommy! Malapit na akong maging adult no? Next next month na" sambit ni alaya

"I know but you're still teenager" tumawa sya

"Whatever"

"Sge na, I'll give money later" hindi pala madaling mag alaga ng anim na anak ano? Hindi ko talaga pinangarap mag karon ng anak na lumampas ng tatlo

"Hi guys"

"Tatay!" Sigaw ng mga bata at niyakap sya

"Hi"

"Hi rweny" bati nito at niyakap ako

"Yuck" sambit ni laya

"Wag ka nga"

"Joke, im hungry already we should be eating tho? Not eating mommy"

"Alaya louisse, mouth!" Tumawa sya
--
"Laya? Why you're still up?" I asked, napatulog kona yung mga bata eh sya nalang yung gising

"Nothing mommy" sabay tago nito ng isang bagay

"What's that?" I asked her

"Nothing, wala po" ngumiti ako at tumabi sa kanya

"What's wrong? And what's that? Palagi ko nalang yan nakikitang hawak mo eh" I asked again

"Nanay's necklace" sabay yuko nito "i was just thinking of her, madali pa namang umiyak si nanay she's just that Softhearted person but mostly she's the one who get hurt at the end, i was just thinking if is she crying right now? Is she sad? Or is she happy? Or she's hurt?"

"You missed her? Sorry ah i can't be her but I'm trying tho?"

"No mommy rwen, hindi lang talaga inaasahang pumapasok sya sa isip ko, yes i miss her? So much, pag nalaman nya siguro na you and tatay are together and getting married she's gonna be hurt, he loves tatay so much i thought no one can let tatay unloved her meron pala, nanay loves him so much you know that, she gave up everything because of tatay? Because of me?"

"You don't want me to be with your tatay? Sorry i just don't know why I'm inlove with him right now"

"No mommy rwen, i want you for my tatay it just that nanay is keep popping out in my mind, i was thinking of her reaction when she will finds out about you and tatay, sabi nya kasi nung umalis kami aayusin nya lahat eh sabi nya ibabalik nya kami sa dati but i think she can't anymore" niyakap ko lang sya, hindi ko alam may lungkot din pala jan alaya hindi ka naman nag sasabi eh

"Ace? Dito ka lang ah? Behave okay?"

"Opo" hinayaan ko syang maglaro sa gilid habang nag ta-trabaho ako, wala naman akong maiiwanan sa kanya kaya kasama sya saan ako pupunta marunong rin naman syang makinig eh pag alam nyang hindi pwede hindi talaga pwede

"Nanay, laro tayo" sabay abot nito sakin ng laruan

"Mamaya okay? Mamaya" nilapag nya yung laruan nya at kumandong sakin tsaka niyakap ako niyakap ko sya pabalik at napatingin sa litrato ng mga bata sa gilid ko, Siguro hindi na nila ako kilala? Siguro malalaki na kayong tatlo ano?

"Nanay? Dito lang ako diba?"

"Oo naman, hindi mo iiwan si nanay hindi ba?"

"Hindi"

"Thank you, sge na matulog na muna tapos mamaya gusto mo mag i-ice cream tayo?"

"Opo"

"Oh sge"
--
"Alaya, nag paalam na ako sa daddy mo na ilalabas kita"

"Why mom?" Tumawa ako

"Teenager's bonding"  bulong ko at kumindat

"You're not a teenager"

"Aray, ang sakit ah"

"Joke, yeah I'm free mom why not"

"Okay let's go!" Alam ko naman paano maging teenager nag daan naman ako dun, naiintindihan ko lahat lahat ng meron sya kaya naisipan ko nalang nailabas sya
-
"You good? Nabusog kaba?"

"Yeah thank you mommy"

"You're welcome, pero bakit parang may iniisip ka parin huh?" Tumawa lang sya

"Wala po, i just remember when nanay did this to me, we did bond for one day but that one day was my favorite day in my life"

"Si ate nanaman? You stop thinking of her already sinasaktan mo lang sarili mo"

"Yeah, i will soon"

"Ate" aiden and yanah

"Yes? Why?"

"Can we sleep here? Like we used to?" Sambit ni aiden, this three years both of them have thier own room kaya hindi na kami nagkakatabi tabi

"Of course, come here"

"Cuddle" they said and hugs me

"Ate can you sing? Daddy's not here eh he's the one who sings when we sleep eh" i think of a song but isa lang yung kanta na pumapasok sa isip ko

"Nothing's gonna harm you, Not while I'm around. Nothing's gonna harm you No sir Not when I'm around"

"Did you miss nanay?" They asked

"I do, so so much i want her now i want her to be here, why you didn't miss nanay at all?"

"No, we have mommy rwen, who can give everything, nanay can't" spoiled sila kay tita rwen eh, tsaka bata lang naman sila hindi nila ako naiiintindihan pa

"Nanay have magic that tita rwen can't do" i said

"What is it?" Yanah asked

"She can put us three asleep in just a minute, she can multitask? She works while she's doing her mom thing? And mommy rwen can't do that? Her pure love for us? Wala sa kalahati ni tita rwen

"You're saying ate you dont want mommy rwen to be our mommy?" Aiden asked

"Not that, meron lang talaga syang bagay na hindi kayang ibigay na kayang kayang ibigay ni nanay"

"Okay"

"You go to sleep na, good night two"

"Good night ate ko" sambit ni aiden

"Good night ate" sambit naman ni yanah

"Good night i love you two"
