Achieving your dream with someone you really love is a great fulfilment. But choosing between your dream and the person you love is another thing.

"Mama, punta ba tayo mol? Bili mo ba ako new toys?" Tanong sa akin ni CJ, ang tatlong taong gulang kong anak habang isinusuot ko sa kanya ang kanyang paboritong dress na regalo pa sa kanya ng kanyang Papa Amir. Even though hindi naman niya talaga tunay na papa ang huli, pero dahil si Amir ang lagi niyang nakikita habang siya ay lumalaki ay nakasanayan na rin niyang tawagin ito Papa.
"Yes baby, pupunta tayo sa mall ngayon and you are allow to get one toy" nakangiti ko namang tugon dito habang patuloy na sinusuklay ang kanyang itim na itim at tuwid na buhok.
"Ayaw ko toys, bili mo nalang ako guitar Mama, yung pink" nakangusong sabi naman nito. Compare to other kids same age at her, she really don't like ordinary toys like barbie, instead she love playing musical instruments toys like guitar, maybe music really runs in her blood.
"You have a lot of musical toys here baby, kakabili lang din ni Tita Maddie mo ng guitar last week." Banayad ko namang tugon sa kanya.
"But hindi naman yun real Mama, I want real guitar" Malungkot na ani nito.
I know how much she love it. Gusto ko din naman ibigay sa kanya iyon, yun nga lang it's really expensive. Mas mahal talaga ang instrument for kids kumpara sa mga adult instrument. Buti sana kung may katuwang ako sa pagpapalaki sa kanya o kung siya lang ang iniintindi ko kaso hindi.
"Let see later baby okay. You know naman diba, the guitar that you want is really expensive. Need pa ni Mama mag save ng maraming money to buy you that. If Mama can't buy the guitar now, how about you choose one toy then next time we will buy you the guitar" paliwanag ko naman sa kanya.
CJ get down on our bed and she run towards her cabinet. There she get her pink piggy bank and handed it to me. "How about we open my piggy princess Mama." She said.
As a mother it's really painful seeing my child sad just because I cannot give her what she wants. Lumaki si CJ na mabait at maunawaing bata, despite of her young age, naiintindihan niya na ang kaibahan ng needs and wants. Yun nga lang mananatili pa rin siyang bata, at sa oras na may magustuhan siya, talagang gusto niya, she will do everything just to get it, like her father. She saved all her money that I gave to her just to get her dream guitar.
We headed to the nearest mall. Kahit alam kong kukulangin na naman ako sa budget namin ngayong buwan, I decided to buy CJ her dream guitar, after all it's her birthday today. Sobra-sobra ang kaligayahan ko ng makita ko ang tuwa sa mukha ng anak ko.
I'm so young when I have her. I give up many thing for her. I'm not ready that time but I choose to have her still, and seeing my daughter right now beside me, smiling from ear to ear made me realize I made the right decision. Tama na siya ang pinili ko at pinaglaban ko. Di bali nang mawala ang lahat sa akin wag lang siya, dahil siya ang buhay ko, at gagawin ko lahat para sa kanya. Lahat-lahat.
