Learning How To Love Again

Happy Ending

“Some stories are sweeter than fiction, it sometimes have a happy ending.”

5 years later.....

"Mommy, Yesha is crying upshtairsh. Trying to eshcape from her crib.." Hinihila-hila ni Allen ang apron na suot ko. I'm baking cookies kasi for them.

Ah? 5 years na pala ang nakalipas and everything went well, of course, I must say. Sa lahat ba naman ng pinagdaanan ko? At ng pamilyang binuo namin? Still, I will want to stay positive. At least, positive at wala ng negative.

By the way..

Nagkaanak kami ni Louis and our first baby ay si Allen Leroy. He's a boy, obviously and he will be five years old next month. He's so adorable and very sweet na bata. Everyone who sees him wants to take him home, that's how adorable he is.

Our next baby is a girl. She's Ayesha Lailanee. Mag te-three years old din next month, together with his Kuya. Nakakamangha nga na they both exist on the same month and day. Very rare.

"Okay baby. Mommy's done." Sabi ko sa kanya at inilagay na sa plato ang mga lutong cookies then I kneel down para magkalevel na kami.

"Baby, I think you're big boy naman already diba?" He nodded three times.
"Right, if Kuya is a big boy already then Kuya will take care of little sister okay?" He nodded and I kissed his cheeks.

I stood up para kumuha ng cookies at inilagay sa isa pang plato.

"Wanna watch..."
"NatGeo Mom." Dugtong ni Allen and he sounds like a big man. He's really smart. Kayang-kaya niya na umintindi ng mga bagay-bagay.
Mas prefer pa nga niya manuod ng mga documentaries kaysa cartoons. Manang-mana sa Daddy niya. I hope hindi niya lahat mamanahin. I mean, pwede din naman sa akin. Right?

I took off the apron then dinala ang cookies sa sala kung saan manunuod ng tv si Allen.

"Mommy will go upstairs to get little sister ah? Just enjoy your cookies okay?" He just nodded.

I half run upstairs to see Ayesha and there, she's playing with her dolls and some other toys. I saw her face at talagang mukhang kakaiyak lang.

"Baby? Mommy's already here." She stood up and cried again. Awieee... Ang cute ng baby namin!

I carried her to go back downstairs.
Haysss... Ang hirap pala maging Mommy, lalo na kapag dalawa na and both kailangan pang alagaang mabuti.

Hindi kasi ako nag-hire ng yaya for them kasi ayokong simula baby sila ay iba ang nakikita nilang nagbabantay sa kanila.

I prefer being a hands on mom.
Saka na ako magha-hire kapag medyo malaki na sila.

"Kuya big boy, little sister will sit next to you okay? She want cookies, you share okay?"

"Okay Mommy. Yesha will enjoy hmm your yummy cookieshh." Napa-smile ako sa kanila. They're really cute.

I walked into the kitchen to get some water for them.

"Daddyyyyyyyy!!!" I heard them screaming gladly. I shake my head while smiling. They're really that lively kapag dumadating na si Louis.

"Where's mommy?" I heard him asking.
"Mommy ishh in the kitchen." Allen's a little bit screaming, na-e-excite talaga siya 'pag nandiyan na Daddy niya.

"Mommy iws nasha kwishenn." I chuckled. Ayesha's being able to speak a little bit clearer.

I saw them.
Kinarga ni Louis si Ayesha while Allen is taking a grip in his right wrist while jumping. Tuwang-tuwa talaga siya.
