Binibihisan na nila Clark at Shaina ang dalawang bata sa taas.

Si Lara naman ang may hawak kay Callie ngayon and me i am preparing their baon in school.

See?, imagine if wala sila.

"Mommy...We're done!!." si Alfonso.

"wow!, very good ang baby na'yan. Tell to your tita na go na kayo sa car and susunod kami ni nangnang Lara, okay?." I said and he run towards his tita Shaina.

Pinasok ko na sa mga lunch bag nila ang baon nila at inasikaso ko din ang gamit ni Lara na dadalahin dahil didiretso kami for a grocery.

"Irene, let's go." Aya ni Lara ng matapos ako.

I put the stroller at the back inside the car at pumwesto na kaming lahat, this is the first time na pupunta ako sa school nila.

"Mommy, finally you're gonna see our school." Alfonso said.

"i know right baby." i said.

"Mommy i want water." Luis said and i gave him a bottled of water.

Clark is our driver at nasa front seat si Shaina.

While we are in the middle of road, Luis are talking.

"Mommy..." at kinakalabit niya ako.

"hm?, yes baby?." and i looked at him.

"Mommy...I-i miss daddy." He said.

Nagkatinginan kaming lahat nila Lara, Shaina.

"I-i want daddy..I want to see him." Dagdag pa ni Luis.

This is so heartbreaking.

"Uhm...Aren't you excited to go on school Luis?." Pag-iiba ng usapan ni Lara.

But it didn't work, hindi kami nagtagumpay.

"No tata, i want daddy." Sagot niya kay Lara.

"Oh, you want daddy?. Toto Clark is there, you can call him daddy..Right daddy Clark?." Lara's replied.

"N-no...Mommy...daddy." Baling niya sa akin ulit.

"Baby...What's mommy told you again?, Daddy is busy right?. He's working so we need to move para hindi tayo makaistorbo kay daddy." I explained.

This is so hard, Pinagkakait ko si Greggy sa kanila. Ang tatay nila.

"Wala pong day off ang daddy?." Pagpasok sa usapan ni Alfonso.

Habang patagal ng patagal, mas hinahanap na nila ang daddy nila.

I can't blame them, it's all my fault. Even though i am here, i know there's a lack and it will never be enough, lack of fatherly love and also lack of fatherly care.

"Dati po pag day off niyo po naalis tayo, wala po bang gano'n si daddy?." They keep asking me.

"Or maybe...Daddy don't love us anymore Luis." Sabi ni Alfonso sa kapatid niya.

I don't know what to do, I saw the two frown and Luis was about to cry.

"Shh baby, mommy loves you both right?." And i touched their face.

He nodded.

"Then, Ofcourse love din kayo ni daddy pati si baby callie." Pagpapagaan ko sa loob nila.

"Oh, We're here!." Shaina shout.

"Let's go babies!." Aya sa kanila ni Shaina.

It's so heavy, papasok sila sa school ng malungkot.

Binigay ko kay Clark ang mga gamit ng dalawa at lumabas na din siya.
