Perfected Life

It felt like my life is some kind of a fairy tale. Ang tanging iniisip ko ay kung ano ang susuotin ko o kung saan kami bibisita next week. Problem scarcely visit us. I have a totally caring and beautiful mom, crazy yet lovable twins (yes, we're triplets), money is not even a problem because we own the infamous All about the Ivanas' (a clothing shop, not to mention how many branch we have here in the Philippines and even around the world) a mansion, and of course, the perfect guy everyone is jealous with, my dad.

Magkasalungat ang buhay ng mga magulang ko noon. Mom's from a wealthy and famous family while Dad's just a province man. But he managed to tame my grandparents because of his love for my mom.

"I still can remember those times when I was still courting your mother" Dad smiled at us. Kasalukuyang nandito kami nina Samantha at Sunshine sa kwarto nila daddy habang kinukwento niya sa amin 'yong lovestory nila ni mommy.

"I would stand straight and salute your lolo everytime I visit them in their house." We all laughed because Daddy's too cute. He even gestured his hand to salute.

"Hahaha" we turned our heads to where the laughter came from and ayun, tapos na palang maligo si Mommy.

"And I, too, can remember how scared your father were whenever he faces your lolo and lola" mom said as she walked the distance towards us.

We all laughed because daddy's reaction is priceless, he's like shy and overwhelmed at the same time.

"Tama na nga yan, matulog na kayo. We all need to rest because we're going to"

"Disneyland!" we all cheered. My twins and I chose Disneyland as our birthday request. It's will be our first time to go there since ngayon lang kami pinayagan na magtravel ng malayo, now that we're turning eight. Too protective, I know.

"Sige na, good night my beautiful princesses" We did a group hug and they kissed us goodnight.

"Ba't di pa kayo tumatayo, 'wag niyong sabihing..." nagpuppy eyes kaming tatlo, I know dad couldn't resist our cuteness.

"Waaaa~" nagsad face si daddy. " Wala na naman kaming alone time ni mommy niyo, ayaw niyo bang magkaroon ng baby bro-"

"Ricardo!"

"Yna honey, e kase naman"

Nagtinginan kaming tatlo ng mga twin ko and we all gave a 'what's that supposed to mean' look.

"Sige na nga, I'll let you guys pass this time since it's your birthday tomorrow." Mommy and daddy hugged us.

"Goodnight my little beautiful princesses and the most beautiful queen" daddy kissed each one of us in the forehead. "Sweet dreams!" and turned off the lamp shade.
