Strauss Series 1: Pierre Strauss

23

Birthday na ni Daddy nexrt week, and they are requesting us to go home. I've been thinking about it a lot kung dapat ko bang pagbigyan o hindi, but i know na nagtatampo narin sila sakin lalo na't hindi nila nakakasama ang mga apo nila.

Mavery is sleeping beside me while Nicholas is playing with his toys. "Mommy.." My baby boy called me. "Yes sweetie?" Sabi ko, he faced me with his sad face "when can we meet daddy Pierre? I really wanna meet him. Not just in the Video Chat but also in real." My heart broke when i felt him longed for his father, nakikita ko talaga na sabik siyang makilala si Pierre, even Mavery kahit hindi niya sinasabi ramdam ko naman sa tuwing nakakavideo chat niya ito. "Come here Sweetie." I motioned him to hug me and he hugged me.

I've made my decision siguro time na para umuwi na kami ng Philippines, but first kailangan malaman muna ni Drei and desisyon ko.

When lunch time has come pumunta si Drei sa bahay namin.

"Hey love." He said and hugged me before kissing me in my cheeks. I smiled at him and also kissed him on the cheeks. "How was your day love?" Tanong ko sakanya, umupo siya sa tabi ko at inakbayan ako. "It was okay, but I missed you so much kaya pumunta ako rito." Sabi niya sakin, tumango ako at humarap sakanya, i need to tell him my decisions. " hey love, i've come to a decision na babalik nalang ulit kami ng pilipinas ng mga bata. Maybe it's time na, and besides my parents are getting old baka siguro time na para kami naman magalaga sakanya, and it's time for the kids to meet Pierre." I said, mukhang nagulat siya sa desisyon ko kasi alam niyang ayaw na ayaw ko ng bumalik ng pilipinas pero ayokong maging selfish sa mga anak ko, i know na they also need their Dad. "Bakit mo naman naisipan iyon?" He asked me while holding my hands, i smiled at him. "I don't want to be selfish anymore love, deserve ng mga bata na makasama ang daddy nila. Ayaw man nilang sabihin o iparamdam alam kong nangungulila na sila sa daddy nila." I told him, he kissed me on my forehead. "Whatever your decisions is i'll support you, sasama ako sainyo pauwi. " he said, i hugged him and i hugged him back.

Gabi na at nag aayos na kami ng maleta namin ng mga bata, they were to hype and excited to come home in the Philippines pero alam kong mag aadjust sila sa klima roon kasi masyadong mainit. "Nicholas sweetie, wala kana bang nakalimutang ipasok sa maleta?" I asked my son he smiled widely and shook his head, napailing nalang ako sa inaasal niya sobrang saya nila nung sinabi kong uuwi na kami ng pilipinas, buong araw silang nasa good mood at hindi talaga sila nagbangayan dalawa.

I felt some tiny arms hugging my waist and i know it's my Mavery. "What is it sweetie?" I asked her while folding our clothes para malagay na sa maleta. "We will meet our daddy right?" She asked in a shy tone, i chuckled faced her then cupped her bubbly cheeks. "Yes, we will meet your daddy, are you excited to see him?" She nodded fast.

"Mavery and Nicholas, you two go to sleep we have an early flight tomorrow okay? Magpahinga na kayo ng maaga para hindi kayo mahirap gisingin tomorrow." I said they smiled widely to me and said "yes mommy! We love you!" Then kissed my cheeks for their goodnight.

Hindi pa makakasabay si Drei samin bukas kasi may aasikasuhin pa siya rito maybe next next week pa raw siya makapunta ng Philippines.

After I fixed everything, i've decided to sleep since i'm already tired.

Kinabukasan ay maaga kaming nasa airport since 7 am ang schedule na flight namin so mga 4 o 5 nasa airport na kami.

They were excited to ride the airplane since it's their first time also, nasa eroplano na kami at yung dalawa ang dadaldal medyo naaliw yung ibang nakaupo na nakikinig sa kanilang dalawa, they are so friendly!

After how many hours of flight ay nakarating narin kami sa pilipinas, hindi ko alam kung sino ang magsusundo samin kasi wala namang sinabi si Dad.

We got all of our baggage na biglang sumigaw si Mavery at Nicholas kaya napalingon ako.

" DADDY!!" they both said in chorused and raced to Pierre.

I don't know what to feel, I'm a bit nervous nung nakita ko siya ulit.

Pierre carried and hugged them both, and i'd lie kung sasabihin kong hindi ako naiiyak coz i am.

I cleared my throat ng makalapit ako sakanila.

"Hey Pierre." I told him, he got more handsome i'd say.

"A-Amesyl.." he stuttered as he saw me.
