Loving the Broken Hearted Man(COMPLETED)

34

I woke up the next day when I felt someone caressing my hair. I slowly opened my eyes, para hindi mabigla. Nagulat ako ng makita ko si Jayce na nasa tabi ko. I though he left? That was what he did before.

"Good morning." His bedroom voice, it is like a music to my ears.

Agad akong bumangon at hindi siya pinansin. Doon ko lang rin napansin na mayron na akong suot na damit. It was an oversized shirt, this is mine I wonder if he unpack my things. I openned my cabinet and saw my other things well organized.

"Bakit nandito ka pa rin?" Tanong ko habang naghahanap ng pambahay na damit. I am going to take a shower, baka hinahanap na ako ng kambal. I found a short and a sleeveless top, kumuha na rin ako ng under wear ko.

This time I turned my gazed on him at hinintay ang sagot niya. "Cause I want you to woke up and you'll see me."

Umiling ako at tumawa ng mapakla, I remembered what he did to me before. "So, you're a change man now? Dati hit and run ginawa mo sa akin ah? You know, I made love with you before. Then the next day, I woke up without you by my side." I fiercely told him.

"T-That was my fault... I made love with you that night, also last night." Aniya at tinignan ako.

"It was just a sex cause by alcohol. It wasn't making love at love." I answered before turning my back on him.

I opened my restroom's door, "Just leave, Jayce." I said before shutting the door closed. I'm too tired with everything, pain is really evident in me. Kahit ilang taon na ang nakalipas, masakit pa rin.

I sighed hard not letting my tears fell down to my eyes. I started to removed my chothes, I openned the shower and started my routine. I felt so down there but it did not bother me anymore. I wanted to see my twins, kaya naman dali-dali na rin akong naligo at nagpalit.

Lumabas ako ng CR at nakitang wala na siya. As always, what should I expect to him? Umiling ako sa sarili ko, pinaalis mo tapos hahanapin mo rin naman pala? Tanga ka, Mau? Pagkausap ko sa sarili ko habang inaabot ang blower na hindi ko alam kung paano nakarating dito sa ibabaw ng vanity table ko. Did he put this here? How come he knew where my mom put this?

Nag-blower na ako ng buhok at nag-ayos ng kaunti. Naglagay ako ng check and lip tint sa mukha ko, inayos ko rin kaunti ang kilay ko. Nasanay na akong laging ganito, dahil sa New York araw-araw akong babad sa camera. I am endorsing some beauty products at home. Nakakatuwa lang dahil kapwa ko Pinoy ang may-ari ng mga yun. I smiled when I remember how hardworking I am when my twins turn four. Ang dami kong narealize kong naipanganak ko sila, at nakakatuwa dahil hanggang ngayon nagagawa ko pa rin yun sakanila.

Lumabas ako ng kwarto ko at agad bumaba sa sa living room. I saw my kids playing with Avon and Athara. Avon is Sarah's daughter, anak nila ni Zander. Athara is my sister's first daughter, sobrang nakakatuwa ang pamangkin kong ito. Kaedad lang siya ng kambal, nauna lang si ate manganak ng tatlong buwan.

"Tita ganda!" I heard Kathie's voice in the entrance of our kitchen. I saw her eating an ice cream in a cone, Jandex is currently looking at her.

"Good morning, Kathie." I kissed her checks at ginulo ang buhok niya. I look at Jandex, tinapik ko ang balikat niya bago ko siya yakapin. "How are you big boy?" Bulong ko rito. "Huwag masyado titigan si Kathie ha? Ang sama na ng tingin sayo ng Tito Zander mo."

Kumalas ako sa pagkakayakap sakanya at agad niya namang nilingon si Zander na nakaupo sa sala. "Where's Calex?" I asked both of them. Kathie shrugged and point Jandex. "Ask him tita, they're bestfriends after all." She said before walking away and calling her sister Avon.

"He's with Chloe tita. You know his crush when we visited you sa NYC?" Nakangiting sagot niya. Tumango ako dumeretcho sa kusina na sana hindi ko na lang ginawa.

I saw Jayce and a girl, kissing each other. Umatras ako hanggang sa nabangga ko ang vase ni mommy! Pumikit ako at dahang-dahang tumalikod. Pero bago ako umalis, nilingon ko muna si Jayce. "Tuloy niyo lang, pasensya sa istorbo." Walang emosyon kong sabi at agad-agad umalis doon. I heard Jayce calling me but I did not respond nor look back.

Really Jayce? After we had sex last night, you have the audacity to kissed someone inside my parents house? Where your children is living? Paano kapag nakita ng mga bata yun? Anong iisipin nila? Anong mararamdaman nila? He's being insensitive at all! Eh, ikaw? Anong nararamdaman mo? Why do I keep questioning myself ba?

"Aga-aga nakasimangot." Puna ni Ate Xia, tinabihan niya ako sa long seater sofa namin. My kids are playing toys, kasama na rin nila si Calex.

"Anyway, may ipapakilala ako sayo. Siya ang makakasama mo sa shoot mo." Dagdag ni Ate habang pinapanuod si Athara na inaayusan si Eirine.

"Who?" Walang ganang tanong ko.

"There she is!" Masiglang aniya at tumayo. I rolled my eyes at sinundan ng tingin si Ate. I am surprised to see the lady na kasama ni Jayce sa kusina. So, I am going to be partnered with someone who have the audacity to act like she owned my house eh?

"Mika, I like you to meet my sister, Maureen." Tinuro ako ni Ate. The lady blushed when she saw me, maybe she knew that I saw what they are doing.

"H-Hi, nice to meet you." Iniabot niya ang kamay niya sa akin. I did just look at her hand, "Maureen." Maikling ani ko at tinawag si Lucian.

"Lucian baby! Come here!" Pagtawag ko sa pansin niya. Agad naman itong tumayo sa pagkakaupo at lumapit sa akin.

"Ayaw ata niya sa akin." Rinig kong sabi nung Mika. I saw in my peripheral vision that my ate is looking at me. "Nah, hindi yan. Mabait yan, trust me." Sagot ni ate.

"What it is po?" I kissed his checks at binulungan.

"Call your dad and make him play with you and Eirine." I saw my son nodded and happily roam his eyes. Sakto naman na palabas si Jayce sa kusina, agad niyang nahanap ang mata ko. Inirapan ko siya at humalakipkip sa kinauupuan ko.

The lady was about to call him but my son got Jayce's attention first. "DADDDDYYYYYY!" He excalimed. Lucian run towards Jayce's direction and extend his arms. He wanted to be carried kaya naman walang nagawa si Jayce kundi buhatin ang anak niya.

"Why baby? Is there a problem?" He softly asked. "Daddy, can you play with us? Please?" Agad tumango si Jayce at pumunta sa mat kong saan nakaupo ang mga bata.

"J-jayce...." Tawag nung Mika sa kanya. Nilingon niya ang babae.

"Yes?" Emotionless, yun ang napansin ko sa boses niya.

"I-Is he y-yours?" I can see pain in her eyes. Umiling ako at tumayo, naghahanda para umalis.

"Yes, why?" Hindi sumagot ang babae at umiling. I saw her smiled at lumapit kay Lucian.

"Hello, I'm Mika. You can call me Tita or Mommy since I will be your daddy's wife soon." Confident niyang sinabi. My Ate's reaction was priceless when she heard it. Even Zander had violent reaction, umiling ako at hinintay sumagot si Lucian, but Eirine got our attention.

"You can't be my daddy's wife! We already have a mom! We don't need another one!" Mataray na aniya at tinulak si Mika palayo sa Kuya at Daddy niya. "Stay away from them!" Galit na aniya.

"May I know kung sino ang mommy mo? Mukhang wala naman si-----" I cut her off.

"I am their mom. Why, do you have a problem with it?"
