Rachel was about to open the envelope from Paul's gift last night while waiting for the two. She opened it and saw one card and one stationery paper. Rachel read Paul's first, it was the card. It read, To my superwoman, in the cover. She smiled and flipped it open:

Dear Mama,

         First of all I want to greet you a Happy Mother's day and most importantly, thank you. Thank you sa lahat ng ginawa, ginagawa and the things that you sacrifice just for me and ate. That even though Papa isn't here to be a father to us right now, you are doing your best to be one. Thank you so much Ma, I can never thank you enough.

Thank you for always being there for us. Even though sometimes you're not enjoying your own hobbies dahil saamin. Thank you talaga sa lahat, Ma. I can never say so much. Sabi nga nila "Not all superheroes wear capes." Thank you and Happy Mother's Day ulit, Ma. I love you so much.

- Your Mr. Likot, Paul.

Her eyes was already welled up with tears. She sighed before opening Louise's Letter:

To the most gorgeous, loving, and caring...

Happy Mother's Day, Mama! Thank you so much for everything. For always putting me and Paul first instead of yourself all the time. Na even though wala si Papa, you're always doing your best to fulfill his duty to us as a father. For always making us happy.

I remembered nung batang bata pa si Paul. You and Papa would fight at times and I'd always wake up with you looking down on me while brushing my hair with your hand in tears, ang bata ko pa nun. From that day on I knew that one of the sights that I didn't want to see was my Mama crying. It hurts, yes. But if you have something in there that you need to let out, I'm just here ready to listen. Tandaan mo yan, Ma. Laging kaming nandito, kami ni Paul.

I know na our situation now is hard because Papa's not with us and it's been a long time. But as we've said, we will never leave you. That I guarantee. Also since that day, I always kept one thing in my mind. Na walang sinuman ang hahayaan naming saktan kayo. Kahit si Papa pa yun.

Last but certainly not the least, because kung lalahatin ko wala ng katapusan yun hehe, I might not tell you this all the time but I'm so proud of you and if I had the choice to pick a mother I wouldn't think twice to pick you. And I always think na ang swerte swerte namin ni Paul na anak mo kami kasi alam namin na there can never be a better Mom/Mama than how you are to us. We love you so much, Mama. Lagi mo yun tatandaan. We hope we made you smile and happy today and everyday. Happy Mother's day ulit, Mama! I love you!

- Your Ms. Kulit, Louise

Rachel was already crying. She was so touched by their messages especially Louise's. Rachel was wiping her tears when she felt arms that went around her neck. There he was, Paul. He kissed her cheek but the phone rang so she signaled him wait and she'll go to her office first.

"Yes this is Rachel, who's this?"

"It's me Anne, Rach."

"Oh ang aga aga napatawag ka, anything you need?"

"Uhmm, Rach. I talked to Mr. Salvehas kanina."

"Oh ano daw?"

"Eh Rach, kailangan mo daw umuwi ng Pinas. For business matters daw."
