OUR WHAT IF'S AND MAYBE'S

FAR FROM ENDING🤧🤍📕(SPECIAL CHAPTER 5)

“DADDY!!” The two kids run across his office. “Hey, how are my babies?” The man said as he carried both of the kids in his arms. “School was fun!” The little girl said and the boy just agreed. “We have a lot of friends now.” The little boy added as both of them giggled. “Aigoo, I thought I lost you two.” A guy appeared at the doors of Axis’s office. “Uncle Haru!” The twins went down. “You two should never run away from me. Your mom will kill me if something bad happened to you two.” He said panting. “Are you done already?” He asked Axis and he just nodded. “Let’s go?” He asked the kids. “Where’s Aunty Riley?” Luna asked followed by a furrowed brows Liam. “She just brought Natalia at the bathroom.” He smiled at the twins. They went down the elevator to meet Riley and their kid, Natalia.
“What took you guys long?” Sakura welcomed the group right at the entrance of their home. “Mommy!” The twins ran and hugged Sakura’s leg. “Come on, dinner is ready.” She said. “Where’s Hikaru and Haruko?” Axis asked as she hugs Sakura. “They’re upstairs.” She said before giving him a peck on the lips. “Oh, you guys are here already.” Haruko said as he guides his pregnant wife down the stairs. “Aunty!” The three kids, Luna, Liam and Natalia rushed to Diana but was blocked by Haruko. “Just give your hugs to me.” The kids hugged him and the others laughed along. “How about me?” Hikaru suddenly popped out. The kids went and gave him a hug. “Enough drama, go, eat now.” Sakura said as she pushed them towards the dining table.
“Are you ok?” Axis asked as hugged Sakura from behind. “It already has been 3 years.” She smiled as she looked up. “Time moves fast.” Axis replied as he placed his chin on her shoulders. “The twins are almost turning four, their birthday is just around the corner.” He added. “They wished for something didn’t they?” Sakura looked back to Axis who was smiling sheepishly. “They bribed you again with some kisses, didn’t they?” She had already known the tricks of her children whenever they want something. “What was it?” She asked again. “A little sister.” The three words that was whispered to her send shivers down to her spine. She pushed him away and looked at him in disbelief. “What?” He asked. She just smiled at him sarcastically before going away.
Sakura went downstairs to see his brothers wearing… dresses? “What’s happening?” She asked confusedly. “They wanted to play dress up.” Haru said as he strikes a pose with his pink dress matched with some clip earing and dangle bracelets. “You should be wearing these too.” Haruko said as he points to the man behind Sakura. “I’m fine thank you.” He said and sat beside Liam who was looking disgustedly to his uncles. “Daddy, is this suppose to be normal?” The little boy asked his father without removing his disgusted face. They all laughed on how Liam looked at them. “Just don’t be like them ok?” Axis said and the little boy nodded. “Enough nonsense, aren’t you guys tired yet?” Sakura interrupted. “Oh, come on, stop being a killer joy.” Hikaru said as he clings on to his little sister’s arms. “Are you pregnant or what?” She asked in disbelief as she watched her brother act cute in front of her. “Kids, back to your rooms.” She commanded and the twins pouted as they still want to stay up to play with their cousin. “Mommy, we still want to play with Natalia.” Luna pleased. “No. You already stayed up late last night.” She strictly said. “Daddy?” Liam and Luna went near their father. “Please convince mommy.” He looked at Sakura but she shakes her head meaning no.  “Come on baby, let them play. Besides, their cousin is here. They barely meet each other these days. Your brothers are here too, maybe you can talk or at least hangout with them.” Axis said trying his best to convince his wife. She squinted her eyes on him and looked at her kids who already have puppy eyes in front of her. As the 4 continued their little debate, the others witnessing found it cute. “Fine, fine fine.” She gave up and raised her hand in the air before going to the kitchen still shaking her head in frustration.
They all gathered up at the couch. “Sakura!” They called her up. “What?” She asked. “Move on from it already.” Hikaru teased. “Action, drama, romance or comedy?” Haru asked. She just stared at them and shrugged before going to their room. “Is she on her period?” They laughed. “I’ll get her.” Axis said and left the room.
“Comedy?” Yuna said. “Sure.” They all agreed. As they are watching, the two upstairs are not so…
“Come on.” He said and pulled her outside. She sighed in defeat and followed him.
“Really? You’re really going to watch.” She said looking at them. “We’re bored ok? Unless you suggest doing something. “Get your butts off my living room. Go up the rooftop. We’ll grab food.” She commanded. They all immediately got up. Haruko guided Diana upstairs and the kids rushed up to the rooftop. Axis and Sakura went to the kitchen to grab a few snacks for the group. Axis headed to the pantry to grab some chips and biscuits while Sakura went to the fridge to get water, juice boxes and milk. Axis placed the snacks on the counter and headed to the fridge. When he arrived, Sakura was already there. He quickly trapped her between his arms causing the girl to get flustered before turning back to him. “You startled me.” She said as she placed her hand on her chest. He smirked as he looked at her. He leaned closer and the proximity between them closed up until there lip are already catching each other. “Ehem, excuse me. I’m thirsty.” Haruko said as he went between the kissing couple. The two were surprised when they saw the group excluding the kids sitting at the counter watching them. “This is better than any movies.” Haru said as he munched on the chip. “I thought, “We’ll grab food.””  He added with a teasing voice. “Yeah, yeah yeah go up.” She glared at them and they rushed their way upstairs. “Let’s go up, let’s just continue it later.” He said with a wink causing the girl to chuckle. “Stop it. I’ll really make sure a meteor drops on you.” Haruko said looking at them from the stairs.
The group sat down the rooftop within the comfy blankets under them. They stared at the stars shining brightly above them. Time flies fast and now they are all here, enjoying what life has brought and forgetting the painful past. The past where they realized the real meaning of love. The past which thought them their mistakes and life lessons. Life is hard. It’s true. But with all of these people around you, your what if’s will fade away and your maybes would be proven. The sky was enlightened by the stars just as how they enlighten each other’s life. They became each other’s light in their mundane pitiful world. They produced a love that cannot be broken, a friendship that cannot be stolen, a light that cannot be shut down. No matter how far they are from one another their love never became distant. And even when the day ends, it wouldn’t be over for this lad and the lass. You might think that the ending is near, but no, they have a long way to go. A lot more chapters to uncover and a lot more seasons to explore. They are just at the beginning. Beginning of a brand, new story…
