Your Idol is My EX HUSBAND

TWO

THE next day, I woke up early than Seve. Medyo mababa na ang lagnat n'ya. Today is Saturday kaya wala s'yang pasok.

Bumaba ako pagkatapos kong magbihis ng pambahay and I saw Selene preparing breakfast.

"Nagluto ako ng chicken noodle soup para kay Seve," she said. I nodded as I sit on one of the chairs. "Anong balita?" tanong ko. "Wala pa," sabi n'ya. "Sa'n bago mong trabaho?" she asked. "Big Hit," I simply answered.

I saw her eyes went wide. "D-diba doon nagta-trabaho 'yung ex mo?" she said. "Yeah at nagkita kami kahapon doon," sagot ko. "Bakit doon?" she asked. "Doon ako na-assign,"

"Small world,"

"Staff ka nila?" she added.

"Yeah,"

"Napaka-small world,"

I sighed. Sobra! Nananadya ka ba fate?

"May balak kang sabihin sa kan'ya si Seve?"

I look to her. "Wala,"

"But you know, anytime malalaman na n'ya ang totoo," naupo s'ya sa harap ko. "I won't let that happen. At isa pa, six years na ang nakakalipas pero may nalaman ba s'ya?" sabi ko. "Atsaka hinanap n'ya ba 'ko?" dugtong ko. "Pa'no kapag naghanap na si Seve?" tanong n'ya. I sigh. "Bahala na. Seve has right to know," nasabi ko nalang. "Yes. Atsaka magkamukha pa naman 'yung dalawa, to tell you the truth, halos lahat ng traits ni Seve ay galing kay Kookie," she laugh. "At least sa'kin n'ya nakuha 'yung labi, mata at ilong n'ya," sabi ko. "Pero aminin, halos lahat ay kan'ya," Selene said sabay halaklak. "Thanks for helping, sis!" inirapan ko s'ya at tumayo ako. S'ya naman ay tumawa lang at tumayo rin.

Pumunta s'yang kusina at ako ay pumanik sa taas para icheck si Seve.

Oo na. Seve got his father's traits, while he got my features-half of it. Some of his features ay kay Jungkook. It's like carbon copy na carbon copy silang dalawa, inside and outside. Kaya paniguradong kapag nagkita sila, tatanungin ako ni JK o ni Seve. I'm not ready for it.

Pagdating ko sa kwarto ni Seve, nakita kong malinis at maayos ang kama. Wala si Seve.

"Seve?"

"Right here, mom,"

He came out from the bathroom. Wala na ang coolfever na nasa noo n'ya.

"Kusang natanggal po 'yung nasa forehead ko,"

"It's okay. Halika ka na, we'll going to eat breakfast,"

Nagtata-talon s'ya habang lumalapit sa'kin.

"Wala ka nang lagnat?"

"Wala na pooo~ very good po si auntie Selene,"

I smiled to him. Bumaba na kami. Habang pababa ng hagdan ay sobrang kulit n'ya na para bang hindi galing sa sakit.

"Tita Selene's soup is the best!!" Seve exclaimed. "S'yempre! Mas masarap pa 'ko sa mommy mo magluto 'no!" sabi ni Selene. "Raulo!" sabi ko at tumawa. "But mom is the bestest, she's the bestest cook and mother I've ever known!" he said. We both laugh. "That's my baby!" sabi ko at niyakap s'ya.

Nagku-kwentuhan kami ng biglang magring ang cellphone ko.

"Excuse me, I have to take this,"

Tumayo ako at lumayo sa kanila.

"Hello?"

"Is this Ms. Kim?"
