Chapter 4

"You'll never find the way back if you keep doing that!"

"Pretending to be me in front of my family is a total sh*t"

"Falling for my husband is bullsh*t"

"Don't mess up with me miss!, you cant pretend forever. I'm going to take back what is mine. You'll surely pay for what you're doing.just wait for my turn"

I woke up 3am in the morning. I dreamt about Aubrey and shes starting to give me nightmares. Galit na galit siya sa akin dahil sa ginagawa ko sa kanya. I flirt with kendrick and i pretend to be a mommy to her twins.

"What am i gonna do?" I ask my self with fear

"Honey? Bat ka nagising"nagtatakang tanong ni kendrick ng malingat siya mula sa mahimbing na pagkakatulog kanina

"Huh? Wala its just bad dream" sagot ko sa kanya

"Wag kang mag alala panaginip lang yun okay?"Niyakap niya ako at hinalikan sa noo

"I know. Sige matulog kana ulit" sabi ko sa kanya na siya namang sinunod niya.

I watch him fall asleep again. As I sluggishly run my fingers through his hair, while we are holding each other. This man beside me is not even my husband but why am i doing this?Sleeping with him, pretending to be his wife. And now i think i might Be falling inlove with him? I don't think its still in the era of pretending, its becoming real. Im betraying myself,this is not part of the plan.

The next morning i woke early to prepare for our break fast. Araw ng linggo kaya walang pasok sa trabaho si Aubrey at kendrick. Aubrey is a doctor shes a cardiologist. Swerte ko lang na naka off siya for 1 month. Kung hindi patay ako dahil anong malay ko sa pagiging cardiologist?

"Good morning mommy" sabay na sabi ng kambal at niyakap ako mula sa likod. Kasalukuyan kasi akong nag luluto ng agahan namin. Mabuti na lang ay kahit papaano marunong akong magluto. Thanks mom!

"Hey there, good morning. Are you hungry?" I asked

"Yup!" Maikling sagot ni mikiel

"Okay,but can you wake up dada for me first? He's still in deep sleep.

"Okay mom. Lets go to dada, princess Reese lets wake up the king!" Masayang sabi ni mikiel at dali dali na silang tumakbo papunta sa kwarto para gisingin si kendrick

Naiwan ako duon na nanatiling nakangiti. Ang sarap sa pakiramdam na kahit ang lahat ng ito ay pagpapanggap at panandalian lang iba ang naidudulot sa aking kasiyahan. Para sa akin parang totoo na.

"Good morning Dada, wake up, wake up!" Makulit na utos ng kambal habang niyuyugyog nila si kendrick

"Hmmmmmmm? What is it?" Inaantok na sagot nito

"Rise and shine dada, mom is waiting for you!" Sabi ni Mikiel

"Dada is still sleepy"

"But dada? You need to wake up!" Sabi naman ni Reese At tsaka pinisil pisil ang pisngi ng daddy niya

"Why so makulit?????" Tsaka ito gumanti ng kiliti

"Dada is becoming a monster! Rawrrrrrrrrrr! Im going to eat you little innocents. Rawwwwwrrrrr!"

"Ahhhhhhhh, No Way!" Tili naman ng kambal at nagsitakbuhan ang mga ito

"Ahhhhhhhhh, mommy help us! Dada is going to eat us!" Patuloy nilang tili

Nakita ko silang tumatakbo palapit sa akin tila naghahanap ng matataguan.

"Oh what happened? Why are you screaming?" Natatawa kong tanong?

Biglang nagtago si Reese sa likod ko at Mikiel naman ay sa ilalim ng mesa.

"Shhhhh. Mom be quiet, dada is going to caught us. He's gonna eat us!" Pabulong na sabi ni Reese habang nasa likod ko at hinihila ang damit

"Where are you little innocents?"

"Im coming for you!"

"Im going to eat you two!" Pananakot ni kendrick sa mga bata

" mommy, do ypu know where are they hiding?" Kunwari niyang tanong sakin

Itinago ko naman si Reese sa likod ko.

"I dont know??? " i pretend

"Are ---you ---sure?" Tanong muli niya

" 100%" sabi ko naman

"Then who's that person hiding at your back?"

"No one"

"I see some little feet."

"Ahhhhhhhhhhh," tili ni Reese

Bigla naman akong iniikot ni kendrick para mahuli niya si Reese

"Gotcha!" Raaawwwwrrrrr!

Binuhat niya ito tsaka kiniliti. Bigla naman lumabas si Mikiel sa ilalim ng lamesa at sinuntok suntok ang ang binti ng daddy niya

"Monster, let go of the princess!"

"Ahhhhhhhhh, prince Mikiel help me!!!" Tili naman ni Reese

Natutuwa akong tignan silang naglalaro habang inihahanada ko ang pagkain sa lamesa. I really see Kendrick being a good father. Ang swerte talaga ni audrey sa kanya.

"Break fast is ready! Lets eat"
