"JOVIENNE GRAEYO PARKER AND CHARLIENNE GABRIELLA PARKER!!!!!!!" Naiinis na sigaw ng isang babaeng napapaliguan ng pinturang itim na siyang nagpagising sa mahimbing at natutulog na diwa ng dalagang nagmamadaling lumabas ng kanyang kwarto upang malaman kung ano na namang kaguluhan ang nagaganap habang siya'y himbing na himbing sa pagkakatulog.

"EYO! ELLA!" The naughty twins immediately stopped on their tracks when they hear the serious voice of their beloved......

"MOTHER!" They both said in unison and hugged her tight as possible but was immediately released when they felt that the hug was already suffocating her.

"Babies." Kalmadong tawag niya sa mga ito ngunit imbis na lumapit sa kanya tulad ng dati ay mas lumayo ang mga ito sa kanya and she felt hurt with their attitude towards her.

"Why won't you come near Mama? Is there something wrong?" Kalmado pa rin niyang tanong sa mga ito kahit deep inside ay nasasaktan na siya tawagin man siyang OA ay wala siyang paki dahil when it comes to her children, she doesn't care anyone aside from her children and herself.

"If we come newr you mama, you will again disappear and leave us once again" Her baby boy said with full emotion and conviction that she haven't realized nor expected to hear her son speak to her that way.

She felt guilty about it and tears start to dropped one by one from her eyes and later on, she couldn't stop it from flowing.

"I'm sorry my babies. Mama's very sorry for always disappearing and lesving you two behind. Mama won't do it again, promise?" She said with her tears still falling nonstop on her cheeks and with that, the twins felt guilty for hurting their mom and for being the reason, why she is crying and in pain that moment so they looked unto each other with tears falling unto their cheeks nonstop as well and run towards her and hugged her so tight.

"M-Mommy. S-Shuri. W-We d-don't mean it. We d-don't mean to make you cry. W-We're shuri. We're really are sorry M-mommyyy." The twins said in unison and starts to wail much to the entertainment of the people present.

"Drama naman. Manang mana talaga ng dalawang yan ang kadramahan mo sa buhay. Tsk. Like mother, like kids. Mauna na nga ako. Kanina pa ako hinahanap ng mga anak ko." simply said by the girl and as she was about to go out of the house, when her phone start buzzing on her pocket and sigh as she saw the caller id.

"I really got to go friend. See you when I'll see you" Paghinging paumanhin nitong saad sa kanya at nginitian lang niya ito pabalik.

"I understand. Truly do. Just please punch my brother for me, Rika." Natatawang nginisihan lang siya nito pabalik at sumigaw ng "Bye" and just like that, she was gone and all alone with her kids.

A smile immediately crept unto her face and scenarios came rushing unto her mind.

'This will be a great day. A day with my kids.'

"Mommy!"

"Mommy!"

"MOMMY!!!"

"Okay. Okay. Chill babies. Be right there" She shouted after she did the finishing touches needed and when she went downstairs, napangiti nalang siya ng makitang nakasimangot ang dalawa niyang anak sa kanya because they're running late and it's all because of her.

She dressed and make herself beautiful which in fact isn't neede anymore for 2 and a half hour.

That's how long her kids waited for her downstairs.

She looked around the house and sighed when saw that the TV was on and based on the reactions of her kids, they got bored with the show they're watching that they want to go impromptu.

"Babies. Don't frown. It'll make you looked old. Do you want that?" She asked and shook their head in refusal while she in the other hand, just smile at their reactions.

"Now stop frowning. Come now my little ones" She said and the two did a make face and pretend to puke then later say:

"We're not little anymore. We're turning six next month so stop calling as little mother"

A smile crept unto her face and just shrugged their annoyance off and pulled them softly outside the house.

"If we'll not be back till 10, just close the doors and all and don't wait for us to be home. And if we'll just call you so don't turn your phone in silent mode, alright?" She instructed, Sheenie and others of things as they will be attending some party on the next subdivision.

"Yes miss. We understand." They all said in unison and she just smiled at them then immediately went inside the car where the little ones is waiting impatiently at her.

"Mommy's here. No need to be impatient little ones" She said kiddingly.

"WE'RE NOT LITTLE ANYMORE MOMMY. WE'RE FIVE TURNING SIX" The two shout in unison and glared at each other then to her.

A laugh erupts from her hearing that from them.

"Okay. Okay. No shouting please. Mommy knows you two are old enough. I was just joking." And with that the two ignored her for the rest of the ride and been lost in their own worlds and thoughts.

She just smile at herself as she saw the image of her kids at the back of the car on the front mirror.
-:-:-

"EYO! ELLA!"

As they arrive, the two immediately went out of the car only to be greeted by a bunch of kids which makes her smile.

"So.... How are you?" She immdiately freaked out and was about to do some karate chops on that someone only to see Rika grinning widely at her.

"Gosh! Rika you scared the whole out of me. I thought...... Gosh! Stop doing that, mmkay?" She said still breathing hard and few minutes later, her breathing is now even and Rika received a glare from her.

"Yeah right. So....." Rika wasn't able to finish what she's saying when somebody came to greet the twins, much to their dismay.

"PARKER TWINS!"

"Tito Ricko!!!!!!" The twins shouted and immediately hugged that person with their great big hug.

"Hey kiddos? What's up? Pumayat yata ang pretty princess namin? Inaaway ka na naman ba ni gorgeous prince?" Napapailing nalang siya sa tawag nito sa mga anak niya and can't help but smile.

"Kuya! Ingatan mo yang mga pamangkin ko ah? Lagot ka sakin pag nadapuan kahit maliit na alikabok lang yang mga yan ha." Natawa nalang siya sa pakikipagtalo ng kaibigan sa kapatid nito.

"Opo. Parang siya yung nanay kung makareact." Mahinang bulong nito ngunit dahil nasa malapit lang sila at ang mahinang bulong nito ay katumbas na ng sigaw ng isang tao.

"I heard that" The last thing her friend said after she was pulled inside and begin mingling with other people inside the house.
