NOW I know what the two paintings here in Caleb's mansion mean. The wolf painting that I'm staring at now, means loyalty. The people who can end at this house is she/he will symbolize honesty and loyalty to this family, pero pag nagawa nilang pag-taksilan ang pamilyang ito, ay siya namang makakaharap ang bagsik ng parusa ng tigre na siyang kaharap nito.
The tiger symbolizes the bravery and fierceness of this family. someone also told me that this is what draws the strength of the family before fighting the hardships, problems, obstacles and danger of life.
At masasabi kong totoo nga, because I saw that in Caleb. That he was really fighting for his son and for me. Yes, that's true. After a few years passed that we still held each other, we now have a happy family.
Our life is quiet after the war. My soul was also quiet nang naipag-higanti ko na sila Mom and Dad. I hope they are in a good place now.
"Mom!!" Tawag saakin ng anak kong si Ezekiel. Nag mamadali pa itong naglakad habang hawak hawak ang isang cup.
"Eki, dahan dahan lang. Baka madapa ka" Babala ko sakaniya.
When Eki got close to me, he immediately gave me the cup he was carrying. "Mom, here's your favorite coffee. But please don't drink it" aniya
Nagtaka ako, not until I took the cup. Wala na pala itong laman "did you?" I asked him. He immediately nodded. "I'm sorry, Mom. I liked the coffee because Dad made me try it, but please don't tell Dad"
Napatawa ako nang makita kong nakikinig lang si Caleb sa likod niya habang naka ngiti. Pero hanggang ngayon ay hindi niya parin iyon napansin.
"Mom, I also heard that Dad has a surprise for you" Eki said.
Tumingin ako kay Caleb "what is it?"
Hindi pa nasabi ni Eki ang plano, nang banggitin ni Caleb ang pangalan nito "Eki" nang maibanggit na ang pangalan nito ay dahan dahan siyang lumingon at mabilis na tumakbo.
Doon din nagka-chance na makalapit si Caleb saakin para halikan ako " 4 years old na si Eki, what's our next step?" Caleb asked me. Mahina ko siyang tinampal dahil alam ko ang ibig-sabihin niya.
"Ano yung surprise mo?" I asked him.
"Secret" sagot niya sabay kindat saakin.
"Caleb, kahit anong secret pa 'yan, hindi na ako masu-surprise. Pero ma-a-amaize? Oo" sabi ko dito.
"If I told you, malalaman mo na. It's okay lang kung ma-amaize ka" he said.
Umiling ako "doon din naman ang punta natin, malalaman ko rin naman yun eh"
Tumango ito "Yeah, but I want to see your reaction. can you wait?" tanong niya at marahan akong niyakap sa likod.
nag labas ako ng hangin bago siya harapin at ipinatong ang dalawang braso sa shoulder niya "fine" and I put the tip of our noses together.
TULAD nga ng ipinangako ni Caleb, meron siya supresa na inihanda para saakin. And that surprise really amazed me. Dinala niya ako sa isla kung saan niya ako dinala noon.
"The sea is really beautiful, just like you" napalingon ako dahil sa sinabi niya. "and you look even more beautiful because of what you're wearing. Para-tuloy'ng gusto konang magka-anak ng sampo" dag-dag pa niya. Suot ko nga pala ang ibiniling swim suit saakin ng mommy ni Caleb. He said matagal na daw ito, pero hindi ako maka paniwala na nagkasya parin saakin.
I smiled at him "thank you. thank you for bringing me back here, I have many memories left here that I thought I would never get back"
Marahan niyang hinawakan ang pisnge ko "I made many promises to myself, and one of them was to bring you back here after the war"
"Thank you again, My love" sabi ko bago ito halikan. Nang mag hiwalay na ang labi namin ay doon namin namalayan si Ezekiel na kanina pa naka tingin saamin.
"ew" mahina nitong banggit dahilan ng tawanan namin.
I thank Dad because of the name he gave to our son. Ezekiel is the name that Dad wanted to name my little brother, but due to unexpected happening in life, we lost him. Gusto niya ang pangalang Ezekiel for unknown reasons. And I also thank him for his way so that I can really meet the person who will complete my life. Caleb.
Everything I couldn't do before, tinutupad niya ngayon, like going to another country, getting married and live peacefully there.
Masasabi ko talaga sa sarili ko that I' am so very lucky for having them in my life. If they are not here. I'm not here now either, because I don't know what to do anymore.
Sometimes, the sea is bright, shiny, calm and soothing. it's like our lives too. There are days when the sea is dark, scary, and dangerous. We have also encountered such things in life.
Sometimes the sea is low-tide, tulad lang din sa atin, we run out of self-confidence and energy when the sun goes down Or sa mga bagay na akala natin hindi natin kaya.
But we, we still learned to go and follow the waves as if we were still standing and going with the flows of life.
We all have different stories. But me? I can really compare my life to the dancing sea.
