Balisa ako sa mga naka lipas na araw. Halos hindi ko na maasikaso yung mga bata. Mabuti nalang independent na si Calleb.
One time, nagulat nalang ako dahil sumigaw si Calleb. Then halos maiyak ako ng makita na hawak nya yung bowl ng cereal ni Rhyne na puro toyo.
May pag kakataon din na nabigyan ko ng sandwich si Calleb na ang palaman ay dish washing soap na akala ko ay mayo. I almost poison my kids for being paranoid.
I tuck my hair at the back of my ear as I taste the sauce I made for the pasta. I bake a small cake and roasted a chicken. I ready the red wine and two glasses. Today is our third anniversary and I'm expecting Rain to be here to celebrate it with me.
Siguro kaibigan nya yung kasama nya that time. I hope I'm just being paranoid. My husband won't chea-- God! Even that word can't escape to my own mouth.
"6:55pm." tingin ko sa wall clock.
The two kids are on their Mamita and Pappy's house. Yun kasi ang sabi ko. Mag di-dinner date nalang kami dito sa bahay dahil alam kong pagod si Rain pag uwi and they agreed.
I lightened the candle and walk upstairs to change my cloth. A red bodycon dress na haggang kalahati ng hita ko na spaguetti strap. Revealing my well shaped body na di halatang nag dala na ng dalawang bata.
I put my expensive perfume and put a light makeup. For the final touch, I wear my red lipstick na ngayon ko lang ginamit. Regalo sakin ito ni Avy, Storm's wife.
Dumeretso na ako sa garden where I setup everything. From the christmas lights around the area and the rose petals on the ground. Amoy narin and aroma na kandila na binili ko. I sat at the chair right in front of the chair that Rain will sit on and wait.
Excitement is written to my face.
Then wait patiently.
And wait.
And wait..
I look at my wrist watch. 8:02pm. I wait for an hour and Rain isn't here yet. The candles are all melted. I sigh. Feeling the knives slowly striking my chest inside me. Isa-isa kong nilipat yung mga niluto ko at inayos uli sa kusina.
I lightened the last four candles I bought and wait for him.
My eyes started to water together with the drops of the candles in front of me. I look at my wrist watch. It's already 9:30 in the evening and he hasn't come.
I look at the foods I cooked for our anniversary. I close my eyes. Rain will be here. There's now way he will forgot about our wedding anniversary.
Hindi ako nagpa tinag. Upos na ang mga kandila sa harapan ko. Malamig narin ang mga pagkain kanina. Malamlam ang mga mata na tinignan ko yung wall clock naman.
It gives me this pain inside me. It's already 12:45 in the morning. Our wedding anniversary is over.
I decided to put all the foods inside our ref and left the red wine and a glass. I brought it to our room and sat on our bed. I caress the sheet of our bed. I pour at my glass and drink it one way to another.
I immediately wipe my tears.
"How could you d-do this Rain.." bulong ko habang hinihimas yung tela. "How could you do this to me..?"
Parang binagsakan ako ng langit at lupa sa nararamdaman ko. Naubos ko na yung laman ng wine pero parang wala lang sakin. Kumuha naman ako ng hard liquor at bumalik sa kwarto namin. Duon ko nilabas lahat ng sama ng loob ko kay Rain.
For fuck's sake, anniversary namin ngayo-- I mean kahapon!

Kinabukasan, kahit masakit ang ulo ko ay maaga ko sinundo yung mga bata.
"Salamat Ma. Aalis na po kami." paalam ko.
Naka sakay na kami at pauwi sa bahay ng sabihin ko sa driver namin na ideretso sa opisina ni Rain. Dala ko yung dalawang bata at lahat bumabati samin. Ngumiti lang ako.
Hindiko alam. Gusto ko mag back pero patuloy ang paa ko sa pag lalakad. Ng maka rating kami sa top floor ay nanlaki yung mata ng secretary ni Rain.
"Is your boss inside?" mahinahong tanung ko. It confuse me ng mamutla ito.
Hawak ko si Calleb at Rhyne sa mag kabilang kamay ko at naka tingin sa secretary.
"Mommy, are going to see Daddy?" Calleb
"Yes baby. So Miss, andyan ba si Rain?"
"M-Ma'am. Mr. Collins has meet--"
"Okay, then we will wait inside. Thank you." mabilis na sabi ko.
"Ma'am!" tawag pa samin.
Dire-diretso na kaming nag lakad at pumasok sa opisina ni Rain ng wlang sabi-sabi. I want to surprise him but what I saw.. What we saw is the one that surprised us.. I tried to cover Rhyne and Calleb's eyes but he put my hand away.
"Fuck!"
Sigaw ni Rain as he push the woman who's on top of him while his trouser is on the half of his leg, revealing his saluted manhood.
I-I just saw my husband.. Having sex with other woman.
Dahan dahan akong lumingon kay Calleb na diretsong naka tingin kay Rain.

Ayan mahaba na babies. Just want to say, bye for now? Na-grounded si Otor dahil sa isang aksidente. babalik pa naman ako. Medyo matagal nga lang. Pero don't worry, everything is in my draft. Kung matagalan man ako mag update, babawi ako the next time I'm able to open my account.
I'm really sorry babies. And to those readers that I have na nakaka-jaming ko. Thank you. You can still leave some messages to me, binabasa ko po. And I reply. Love you babies.
Hope you'll miss me.
