After 5yrs
"hey look who's here" from where i'm standing i can hear the noises coming from the living room
"hey kiddo's" then the kids start jumping just to hug me. oh come on this literally heaven.
"who missed me" i ask but no one answered make my forehead frowned, what the heck. then there i found my brother laughing like i didn't see him.
"who missed me" i repeat but this time i'm holding a toy. "me tita-mommy!! i'm the one who miss you" that's sandro trying to reach the toy in my hand.
"i'm the one who miss tita-mommy" that's simon trying to push away his kua, oh god! this is not good. they start pushing themselves away from eachother, this is the reason why i really don't have plan getting a child.
"hey!! i got two, stop pushing or else i'll trow this away" they stop before they grab their toys in my hand before they kissed me in my cheeks
"yehey tita-mommy you're the best" they kissed me again before they ran away. oh god it's so stressful to have a children in house.
"oh god bonget how could you handle that, they willing to punch eachother just for a toy! that's ridiculous bong" Irene said while massaging her head before she put her bag in the sofa.
"oh come on irene. my sons is the reason why i'm worth living for. you should try with your suitor now. what's the name again of your suitor for 1yr huh? the mystery suitor of you" bong tried to tease her sister as she still fixing the plate in the table, they will having an early dinner and a mini celebration because liza is pregnant they will having another baby again.
"stop this bong! you're weirdo, where's liza" then bong pointed the kitchen.
"hey liza i missed you" irene kissed liza cheeks as she start getting the pasta made by liza.
"i miss you too irene! it's been a month where have you been" irene chuckles.
"you know me liza, there's so many schedules and meetings that need my presence and it's stressing me off and you know what, it's giving me a hard time plus the fact i can't come here every weekend because i need to take care the things in my house" irene sighed thinking how the fuck she's surviving after all of that.
"i rene i think you should take a vacation even for a week, one week isn't bad for you" liza suggestions make me awake from the reality. i mean it turning back my senses but the thing is... that wasn't that easy.
"i would love to but that wasn't easy as that liza you know that" irene muttered with exasperation before getting the menudo in Liza hand and put that in the table
"did you really want to take a vacation?" liza asked looking at irene who's panely smiling at her.
"i love to but--"
"leave it to me i'll take care of your schedule but promise me that you'll take care of yourself for your vacation. is that clear" my mouth automatically half opened after what i heard, i mean oh my fucking god. i'm getting a vacation!!!
"oh mother of god i'm so blessed, thank you thank you liza." i hugged her making her push me
"Jesus Christ Irene! i can't breathe" and that's make me laugh.
the early dinner filled with laugh, a joy and a endlessly chitchat of coming from them. it feels like they bringing up the joy they once forget. the joy that made them tear apart, the happiness that stab their back are now taking back by the time.
imee is always in their heart and they still grieving from the pain that imee caused them after she died, they will never forget what happened that night, how their night become so dark, how the days feels like night, how the people seems so muted. how the road feels like a danger and a loud music that echoing in their ear while they heart starts to bleed, how they tried to kill themselves and how their night completely give them an immense of silence.
that night was still remembered and unforgiven because that night ruined them that night ruined the future we planned.
"are you okay sweetheart" a stern voice and a touch make her flinched for a seconds making her body electrified like there's a danger energy running through her system.
she sighed looking at the man in her side, her boyfriend for 3yrs. yes 3yrs not one year and he's not the suitor anymore that bong talking about
"yeah. i'm good i'm sorry i'm just thinking of something" irene look outside as she see how the night feels like danger again, the rains that pouring is like a knife who's ready to stab her again
"honey you look pale are you really want to go home yet?" i sighed looking the man i loved. i hold his hand and kiss his lips.
"yeah we're going to your house" i said making his yes widden.
after 3yrs this is the first time i'll come to his place, sounds weird but yeah. at first i'm not sure about greggy but as the time goes by, he made me feel loved. he's the person who's ready to accept me from who i really are. he's there when i'm falling apart and he's the person who hugged me and saved me from this bullshits life.
i'm really grateful that i met him, that's why i'm thinking that this is the right time to trust the man who wholeheartedly loving and accepting me from who am i.
this is the payback time honey.
"let's go home baby, i wanna go home with my home"
