"Mommy is the Philippines beautiful?" Nhaire asked.
Nang ikwento ko kasi sakanila na pupunta kami ng Pilipinas ay tuwang tuwa sila. First time kasi nilang magtravel outside Japan.
"Yes sweetheart." Simpleng sabi ko.
"Are there beaches to? Mikan told me she went to Philippines many times and she said there are a lot of beaches and she swim there!" masaya niyang sabi. Playmate niya kasi si Mikan. Her Mom is Japanese but her dad is a filipino.
"Ofcourse we will but first we have to visit your Lolo."
"Lowlow?? Who is that?" Takang tanong niya.
Sakanila kasing dalawa ni Lexus siya ang hindi masyadong nakakaintindi ng tagalog. Well i tried my best to teach them pero mukhang ayaw ni Nhiare but she know how to Po and Opo.
"He is you Mamita and Papito's parents, and Mommy's grandfather."
"Really?! Is he nice Mommy?"
"Ofcourse! But he is sick that's why we have to take care of him."
Ayaw ko man bumalik sa Pilipinas pero wala akong choice. Gusto kong alagaan si Lolo at makasama habang may panahon pa siyang natitira. Apat na taon din akong nangungulila sakanya. Kaya kahit labag sa loob ko ay uuwi ako.
Matapos kong patulugin si Nhaire ay si Lexus naman ang nilapitan ko. He is reading a book entitled 'Charlie and The Chocolate Factory'.
I admit he is gifted. Matalino siya, in his age kaya na niyang magsulat ng mga phrases and also doing math. Siguro mana talaga siya sa dad niya.
"Lexus arent you going to sleep baby?" I asked.
"Mom im not a baby."
Natawa na lang ako sa sinabi niya.
He is always saying na dapat hindi ko na siya tawaging baby dahil daw big boy na siya.
"Okay, so big boy are you stuffs ready? Nagpatulong ka ba kay Yaya?"
Marahan siya tumango at sinara ang librong binabasa niya. He looked at me intently. Minsan gusto kong umiwas sa mga tingin ni Lexus. Para kasing pagtinitingnan niya ako nakikita ko sakanya ang ama niya. Peste naman kasi eh! Lahat minana niya!
"Are we really going to leave?" He asked.
Tumango ako.
"We need to. Dont worry everything will be fine there. You can meet new friends or may be go to school."
Dito kasi sa Japan nakahome study lang sila. Twice a week may pumupunta dito sa bahay na filipino teacher para turuan sila. Medyo hindi kasi ako pabor na mag aral sila ng japanese dahil may plano akong doon sila mag aral sa States few years after.
"But i dont like it there." He said.
"Son, youll love there. Promise sayo ni Mommy ma eenjoy ka doon." Then i kissed his forehead.
"You should go to sleep okay?"
Pagkatapos ay hinintay kong matulog siya ng tuluyan.
