Achelous Dmitri is one hell of a kid who got his dad's eyes, colored blue with a hint of green just like my twins and his mom's face. A perfect combination though. It took me an hour bago nakadating sa private school niya dahil malayo ito mula sa company. Jusko naman.

"Hi, Achelous." I waved at him. Kahit hindi ko alam kung ano mukha niya pagkakita ko parang alam mo na agad na siya yun. He looked up at me wondering who I am.

"Who are you?" Diretsong tanong niya sa akin.

Ngumiti ako sakanya at hinawi ang ilang hibla ng buhok ko na hunarang sa mukha ko medyo mahaba na din kasi yung buhok ko. "Im Lane, your father's secretary. He's in an important meeting so he asked me to fetch you first. We can go first in the restaurant, is it okay?" Mahabang paliwanag ko sakaniya. He nod at me then took his bag and walk beside me papunta sa sasakyan ko na nakapark. He was quietly watching through the window habang papunta kami sa restau. I saw a call from my phone.

"Hello, sir?" It was my twin's teacher.

"Hi, Mr, Diaz. Just want to tell you that Morrigan was in infirmary because she had a fight with her classmates. I couldn't contact your mother so."

I gasped, Achelous was looking at me. "Is she okay? I'm sorry, sir."

"Yes but it's fine if you fetch both of them for now. Sorry for disturbing you again."

I sighed. Morrigan was more braver and reckless than Keegan while Keegan was quite. Sumasakit ang ulo ko sakanila. Maybe this is what I get for being a spoiled son noon. I tried calling my mom but she wasn't really answering.

When we arrived at the restaurant we already saw his dad waiting. Napakagwapo naman talaga ng lalaking ito. Jusko. Nag babadump nanaman yung puso ko. Malandi.

"Daddy!" Masayang bati ni Achelous then he ran to kiss his dad. Heegan smiled and pat his head. I almost cried. I wanted this... I wanted him for so long. I wanted this for my twins. I shook my head. Focus.

"Sit both of you-"

Nakaupo na si Achelous nung pinigilan ko siya. Di ako mapakali. "Sorry sir, Can I go home early? I... I. have urgent matter at home. I'm really sorry. I know we have meeting. I'll just go to work tomorrow." Ang bilis ng tibok ng puso ko. Nag aalala ako sa anak ko. He was staring at me, seizing up if I was lying or not. I look at Achelous. I wish he wouldn't tell him about the call. Of course, Svern Heegan wouldn't know it's his coz he was in Rut. He wouldn't remember that time. I was gripping my bag. Day off ko sana yun kaso. Hayaan mo na.

He pinch the bridge of his nose then close his eyes before nodding. "It's okay, go on. I'll just ask Teresa later." I bow then ran. I was literally running to my car.

Morrigan has banaid on her side cheek and nose. She was crying when she saw me and suddenly asked me. "Papa they started it, insulting me and Keegan saying we don't have a Dad and we're weird coz our Mom is a guy. Papa... Where is our dad? Hindi niya ba kami mahal?" She said as she sobbed. Nasa bahay na kami. I hugged her and Keegan was looking at eyes.

"Mori don't be a brat." Keegan sneered but I can see he wants to cry too. This moment breaks my heart. I didn't want to cry. I've had enough of it when I learned I was pregnant and when I found out Heegan was getting married and when they had a son. But this. Seeing them cry breaks my heart.

I hugged both of them. This was all my fault. Why couldn't I just became normal and fell in love with someone who actually wants me? "I'm sorry. I'm so sorry. Don't cry my love... Wala kayong kasalan. It's all on me."

"Papa... I'm sorry for asking. I'm just... I'm sad." She said in the midst of sobbing. Her eyes was already puffy.

They both fell asleep while crying.

"I'm sorry, Rhythm. Your dad suddenly went into Rut. Took me long time to find his suppressants. I'm sorry." Hinging paumanhin ni mama. I smiled at her then tap her hand.

I was holding the beer. I couldn't sleep. It haunts me. Seeing their crying face asking why they couldn't have a normal and complete family." It's okay mom. It's fine. You know... Morrigan asked me why their Dad's not here and I couldn't answer." My tears fall. Mom know everything. She hugged me.

"I'm sorry you had to go through this anak. Mom's here." I was silently crying. Bakit ang sakit-sakit. Halos hindi ako nakatulog kakaisip kung ano ba ang dapat kong gawin. I want to give them everything but I cannot give them their father. I would have to ruin another kid's life if I did that. I called Kelly.

"Kels. I can't go. Pwede ba ikaw nalang magpasyal sakanila? Pasensya na... Something happened yesterday."

"What happened?"

"They're starting to ask."

A long pause then I heard him. "Of course they would ask. Seven na kaya sila. I told you before tell him bago pa siya ikasal but you didn't." Ha. How could I compete with someone who's been there with him since he was young? He doesn't know me. Maybe if he knows he would hate me.

"Big news. Mr. Dmitri of Dmitri House and Corps. is getting married to his long term girlfriend Kaori news is she's already pregnant."

Halos mayanig ang mundo ko sa balita. I couldn't move. I was adjusting from being single to being a parent of two. They were already two years old kaya di na masyado mahirap alagaan.

I rolled my eyes. How could I? Kaori was already pregnant at that time. The twins was already turning two. Iniisip ko baka mamaya ilaban niya sa korte mga anak ko syempre mananalo siya. Mayaman siya or baka mamaya di niya sila tanggapin. "I can't. You know I saw their son and it made me think I did the right thing. Maybe... maybe someday the twins would understand me."

It took me hours to explain them why I had to work they were disappointed but they understand that I had to work and promised na babawi ako. Mugto ang mata ko. Paano ako neto? Mageye glass nalang ako. Ayoko sana talaga pumasok pero kailangan. I left an important meeting because my twins was far more important.

"Huy, Lane musta langit? Gwapo ni sir no." Bati ni July isa sa nakaclose ko. Napapailing nalang ako tsaka kinuha yung inabot niyang coffee. May binili kasi ako pero para kay boss.

"Oo na lang, kamusta meeting?"

She rolled her eyes. "Feast ateng... Meron yung kapatid at pinsan ni boss. Grabe kahit ang lamig ng atmosphere okay na din kasi busog mata namen." Kinikilig niyang wika.

"Totoo ba? Sayang di ko nakita. Akyat na ko. Mayang lunch nalang ulit."

Mas maaga ako ng 5 minutes kaya alam kong wala pa si boss pagkababa ko sa elevator nang natigilan ako. Nakita ko kasi si Mr. Dmitri at ang asawa niya na naghahalikan. I stood there frozen. I know this. I fucking know this will happen yet I still feel the pain. I dropped the coffee which made a commotion. Napaso ako na nakapag pagising sa akin. Natutop ni Kaori ang bibig niya.

"I'm so sorry. I will be back." Saad ko bago sumara ang elevator na lulan ko. I didn't look at him. I went to the ground floor papuntang parking lot. I can't fucking breath. Fuckng feelings. I was calling Kelly but he's not answering maybe his busy with my twins. Sana pala di na ako pumasok. Sana talaga.

I went to my car pero pumunta ako sa likod nun kasi madilim. I was trying to calm my nerves and steady my breathing. I saw the love of my life kissing--no french kissing his wife. That's a given. They even had a son. What's wrong with you? Kaya mo ito. Para sa kambal. 6 months na lang magrerenew ka na ng contrata. I heard my phone ring.

Mr. Dmitri calling--

Napapikit ako even seeing his name is so damn hard. Bakit ko ba naisip na kakayanin ko ito? I will just resign nalang. I will find another job. Not this one. I pressed the answer button.

"Sir..."

"Come up here now." maawtoridad niyang sabi. Svern Heegan Dmitri has this air that you cannot mess up with him because he's-- well he is the fucking Alpha Male and one of the richest billionaire here so.

I heave a sigh. Just think you don't have a heart para sa kambal. I think I need to swim. I will fucking drown my feelings.
