I sighed before I talked to my boys. It's really hard to say that I am going to leave for a week. I must admit that I don't have much time to play with them or to have a date with my twins. These past few weeks, I'm really busy with my paper works and a lot of projects in the MCM. Meetings, and conference plus the evaluation made me busy.

I sighed again for the one last time.

"Pupunta ba tayo ngayon kay Lolo bukas, mommy?" Louise asked me. I saw how a smile painted in his face. He's expecting for something and I don't want to disappoint them I really need to.

"I have something to tell you guys." I know I owe them a lot when it comes to our bonding, but I promise it's too late. I took another deep breath before starting to explain to them about my departure.

"Mommy is going to leave." They froze. I saw how Louise face turned to disappointment.

"I'm going to sleep." Luca suddenly stood up and quickly went upstairs. I called his name but he didn't turn around. I want to include them but I don't want to surprise them! I'm going far away and they still have school so I can't take them with me.

"Mommy, you promised it's date time tomorrow."

He said sadly.

"When I come back I have a surprise for you. I'm sure about that, don't sulk with mommy." I approached Louise and held her in my arms.

"Mommy, just take Luka  and me where you're going. One week is a long time, mommy." This is the first time I will be separated from them for a long time! It's hard, but I can do it. This is my chance for them to meet their father, even if he has another family. I know they will understand everything, they are smart and it is even better that while they are still young, they already know the truth.

"Louise, it's not possible. I'm going far away and you still have school. You and your brother can't be absent. Promise, when I get back I'll introduce you." I smiled at him and hugged him more.

"Promise mommy? You'll be right back mommy. Don't stay there, I'll cry if you don't come back right away." I hugged him tightly. This is one of the things he inherited from me, being understandable.

"Promise. You'll be nice to your Big Brother? Don't you will fight, because I will cry when You and your brother had a fight."

"We won't fight mommy, Luca always greets us."

"Good. I don't want to hear from the assistant You and your brother had a fight. You will follow the all my orders and don't be reprimanded and fight at school, okay?" "Yes, mommy. As long as you come back right away?" I kissed him in his cheeks.

"You stay here first okay? I'll just talk to your Big Brother upstairs." I told my son and he nodded so I went upstairs. Luca and Louise are at odds when it comes to this. He inherited his father's stubbornness and possessiveness, something his stubbornness and possessiveness, what's his is his only.

I slowly opened the door of their room. I saw him lying down and covered with a blanket so I approached his bed and sat down.

"Baby, I'll be right back."

"I don't want to talk to you mommy. Just leave Louise and me alone." He faced the other side and covered himself with a blanket. He really doesn't want to talk to me. He was really sulking.

"I'll be right back. It'll only take a week and I'll be home, and when I come back I'll introduce something to you."

"Always mommy, you always leave me alone." I heard his sobs. I removing his blanket.

"My baby, crying." I went to him and hugged him. He just buried his face in my neck and cried there. I hugged him tightly.

"Mommy, take me and Louise." He said between his sobs.

"If I could take you with me, I would. But it's not really possible." He wrapped his little arm around my neck even more and hugged me tighter. I picked him up and placed him on my lap.

"Don't cry. Mommy will  back soon."

"Just take me with you mommy." I brush away tears in his cheeks.

"Next time, I'll bring you and Louise. But can you make a promise to mommy?" He nodded
while wiping her tears.

"You and Louise will be nice? You will follow all my orders. Watch over your sister and take care of yourself, okay?" He nodded again.

"You'll be right back, mommy, won't you?"

"Of course, mommy will come back soon. I will miss my two ugly children." I smiled.

"Just mommy, promise to come home right away? If you don't come back, I'll look for you."

"Really? You're going to find mommy?"

"Hm-mm." He nods.  the door opened and Louise entered.

"Come here, Louise." I told him, he turned and stood next to me.

"Mommy, why did Luca cry?" He asked me. I laughed because Luca frowned.

"I didn't cry!" He is defending himself. I dropped Luca next to Louise and faced them both. I knelt in front of them to match their height.

"You'll be nice while I'm gone, and promise mommy that you won't be scolded at school and at home, okay?"

"Opo, mommy."

"Just call when there's a problem here. I'll call every hour to check on you guyz okay?" They nodded.

"Hug mommy." They got off the bed and suddenly hugged me.

"My babies are really big boys." I'm happy because I raised my children safely and well even though they don't have a recognized father, I'm happy because my children are happy even though they don't have a standing father and they don't have a daddy for their years. But I think this is the right time to tell Liam about the twins. I am prepared for his reaction, but I will not let him take my children from me. They are the only reason why I am alive today, they are the only thing that I have that no one else can take away. I will fight them until my death.

The next day I left early so I wouldn't be caught in traffic. The trip to Bicol takes almost nine hours including traffic. I packed enough clothes and food in case I got hungry, I also brought cash because I was going to be quite far from civilization. First I instructed the assistants to watch the twins carefully and feed them properly. I also called my dad to stay at home first so that the twins can be with them. I couldn't say goodbye to them because they were fast asleep and I didn't want to disturb them anymore. I just left a note for them.

Nine years is no joke, and I know that's enough time to deal with them. I am strong enough to defend myself, my children serve as my strength and my life. I know I won't be hurt anymore when I see him happy, with the feeling of my sister. I moved on.

The sky was already dark when I reached an old house. I crossed a very long pit
old house. I crossed the very long bumpy road of Bicol just to get here. I also asked questions to the people I passed so I wouldn't get lost. I passed a very wide and very long rice field and all I saw were huge coconut trees. I also had a hard time asking questions because I couldn't see any cars or people on the road, it was so quiet and so far from Manila.

I got out of my car and looked around and observed. But I didn't see anyone I could ask. I also wonder why Liam and  Rosé chose to live here. It's very quiet here and I hardly see anyone. I slowly entered the wooden fence of the house. That house is big and white, the house is quiet and dark.

I knocked several times but no one answered. I decided to go to the back of the house but there was no one there either. I went back and knocked, but no one came out and the whole house was silent. I turned the doorknob so I wondered why it was open. I decided to go inside the house, the whole house was quiet and chaotic. Bottles of wine were strewn about and the whole house was a mess. I even walked into the house to see its interior and noticed scattered clothes and broken bottles around. I covered my mouth with my hand, as if the whole house had been raided and all the things were rummaged through. I was shocked when I suddenly heard the door open. I'm stuck where I'm standing, my heart is beating really fast. I couldn't turn around and I couldn't speak especially when I heard his voice.

"Who are you?"
