The twins immediately fell asleep when we arrived because they were both strained. I walked quietly out of their room and collapsed onto the sofa, exhausted. It would be difficult for the twins if we continued our journey to Siargao. I'm planning a trip to Siargao to see one of my properties. We don't have to flee the country to avoid Eugene. All that remains is for us to take a step back."That childish man..." I murmured as I stared out the glass window. I can see a lot of lights coming from various cars. It's a stunning view... enough scenery to refresh my mind and heartI honestly don't intend to leave Eugene for long. I'm not that bad to take his children away from him. I wouldn't abandon Eugene, just as I promised Gail.And I also know that I can't afford to be apart from him. He is one of the most important people in my life; he is like my own family, so I doubt I can be away from him for too long. Besides, the children need the presence of their father.I'm not sure why I'm su
The dining room is packed with men with large bodies, each carrying a weapon. When I looked at the table and saw what they were looking at, I was too stunned to say anything. Gail's picture was on the table, along with the old man and woman's picture; who are they? I was even more surprised when I saw a picture of myself with the twins.I take another look at the people who are now staring at me. Eugene's nervous and shocked expression tells me that he didn't want me to see all of this."W-what... Eugene, what is all of this?" my voice trembled as I asked him, still terrified of what I saw.I saw him signal to the men to leave us alone first. When they passed by, I tightly closed my eyes, just looking at their big body and big weapons made me nervous. When they were completely away from me, I just breathed a sigh of relief."Why are you here? Why did you come back?" he asked, holding his head."Stop hiding anything from me now, Eugene! Just tell me, what exactly is going on right now?
"Sleep some more," he grumbled as he drew my body back into a fetal position."No, I can't, I just left the kids at Anica's house, I need to get the Twins and do some grocery shopping, let go," I slapped his arm, which is now tightly hugging my body.I felt pain between my tights when I sat down. When I felt the soreness, I flinched.When he noticed I was struggling to sit, he apologized, "I'm sorry, I hurt you too much."I reached him and pinched his face."Does anyone ever apologize with a grin on their face?" I asked, still trying to conceal his grin. He's content with own naughtiness."I'm serious okay, Ily sorry; I'll help you wash up; warm water can help relieve pain," he said as he carried me to the bathroom.I couldn't even take a peaceful bath because his hands and lips were moving all over my body; thankfully, that didn't lead to a more intimate moment because I wouldn't be able to walk right now if that had happened.When we finished bathing, I simply drank a pain reliever
"Mama sick?" I came to my senses when I heard Thor's voice."No, baby, Mama is not sick; go, finish your food," I said, smiling and patting his cheek."I miss Daddy..." I turned to face Loki, who was sulking while cutely munching his food. "Daddy misses you too, so he'll come here later because he'll miss you so much," I consoled Loki and Thor.When we talked about their Daddy, I, too, felt sad.He mentioned last night before I was swallowed up by tiredness and drowsiness, that he could come here today because we had something to talk about for the twins' birthday. I'm not sure, because his departure must be kept secret, we must be cautious if not, all of his and the police plans are going to be put in danger. "What time?" Thor asked. I glanced at the clock and saw that it was 9 a.m."I'm not sure–" I paused when the doorbell rang.I stood up and warned the twins not to make any noise. I also slowly approached the door while dialing the police number, so that if a dangerous person
It's the twins' birthday today. It's still four a.m., but I'm awake enough to bake two mini cakes for the boys. I've been making mini cakes for them since they were gone, and they're now used to waking up to my birthday songs and mini cakes the moment they open their eyes. I also do this on Eugene's birthday."Ouch!" I shouted in silence because of the pain when the toothpick from one of the cake toppers pricked my thumb. "Ouch!" I quipped quietly in pain when a toothpick from one of the cake toppers pricked my thumb.I haven't been able to concentrate since last night because I'm not feeling well. This must be because I'm too worried about Eugene's situation; I can't contact him, and the fact that today is the start of their operation to capture those criminals is driving me insane.I only washed my hands and did not apply a plaster. I tried to clear my mind so that I could finish all of the cakes and make them more beautiful for the twins. When I'm finished, I breathe in and out an
As I stood in front of the hospital, I clutched the strap of my bag tightly. It was as if my feet were nailed to the ground, refusing to enter the hospital. "You want me to go inside alone?" Ellias asked as he waited for me to stop crying.We've been out here for a long time since we arrived at the hospital. But I still can't calm down. How can I calm down? How am I supposed to stop crying when I know I'm going to see Eugene's lifeless body when I walk into that place?"Don't cry, I'm sure Eugene is waiting for you; his body is inside, so come on," he persuaded me as he pulled my arm, helping me in taking a step forward. Because of my loud crying, the pastors, guards, and nurses of the hospital were distracted after we entered."Shh, just relax," Ellias said, patting my back repeatedly.He took a step away from me to speak with a nurse at the information desk. While waiting for him, I noticed a large number of people in line for treatment; these are the less fortunate people who mu
The constant bouncing on the bed woke me up. I tried to open one of my eyes to see what was going on."Wake up, Mom!" Loki yelled as he jumped onto the bed."Mom!" Thor exclaims, mirroring his twin, as they both jump on the bed to wake me up.When I became anxious that they might fall, I jumped up quickly, even though I was still sleepy, and reached for them to stop them."Stop doing that boys, you'll end up hurting if you fall there," I yawned, pointing to the ground."Why are you sleeping for such a long time, Mama?" Loki asked, using hand gestures to indicate how long I had been sleeping.When I looked at the clock, I realized I had slept for far too long."Mama is just starting to regain her strength," I explained.I slept for far too long today; it's almost lunchtime; this must be because I can sleep in peace now that I don't have to worry about anything.I assisted them in getting off the bed."We're going out now that Mama is awake," Thor said as he walked to the door."I'm goi
It's past midnight. Eugene and I were already on the bed in the hotel where we were staying. I stretched my arms tighter around Eugene's body as we discussed getting a new housekeeper. "I think a younger one is better because the twins are getting more and more energetic as they grow; Nay Perla used to get tired immediately taking care of the boys even if they were still babies," I said, my eyes fixed on his growing beard. "All right, let's do it," he said, kissing my temple and pulling me in closer. "When are we going home?" I asked. I get out of his embrace and lie down on the bed properly because I'm tired. "Tomorrow," he replied, hugging my body from behind as I tossed to the other side. "All right, let's do that..." I said sleepily, hugging his arm in my body. ————— The next morning, we're all ready to check out of this hotel because we can't stay here forever. We waited patiently for the twins to wake up before leaving. The trip home was nice, so when we arrived, the twins
