(Imee's Pov)
"Nag effort talaga kayo Irene para sa surprise na to ha" i said
"Wala akong tulong dito" Irene said
"Hah? Ang effort naman, who organized this?" I asked
"Gracie and the boys" Irene said
"She really puts so much effort for her dad's birthday" i said
"Like Irene, she really puts so much effort nung nag birthday si Daddy" Bonget said
"Yunh kalambingan ni Irene nakuha ni Gracie" Mama said
"Yes mama tas yung kamalditahan at kaartehan dyan sa tita nya" Irene said
"Hoy hindi kaya" i said
Bumaba na si Gracie and i saw greggy's car entering...
"Oh andyan na" i said
Pumasok na si Greggy kasama yung batang lalake at yung yaya nito.
"Happy birthday", everyone greeted
"O my god, i-i thought this will be a simple celebration" Greggy said
"Your daughter really puts so much effort for your birthday" I said
"Thank you anak" Greggy said and hugged Gracie
"You're welcome dad" Gracie said
"Hey clyde, say hi muna" Greggy said
"Hi tita Awin(irene), hi acie" he said
Gracie carried Clyde and kissed him. Kahit hindi nya talaga kadugo mahal na mahal nya.
Nag simula na ang party. Habang kumakain kami nasa harap namin si Gracie at si Greggy.
"Look, How Greggy looks on his daughter, the way papa looks on Irene" Bonget said
"Sa totoo lang, napaka swerte ni Gracie, napaka swerte ni Irene" i said
"Kaso nag loko" Bonget said, and it made Gracie look on us
"Yung machine oo, nakakahiya nga biglang nag loko eh" i said and rolled my eyes
"Ingat kayo sa pinag kekwentuhan nyo malakas ang pandinig" Irene said
"Mama Imee? Daddy Bonget? What are you talking about?" She asked
"No nothing honey, its just... Something about sa..." I said
"Sa ano sa office lang darling" Bonget said
"Let's just eat and have some wine, let's go party tonight right?" I said to Gracie
(Gracie's pov)
"Let's just have some birthday messages?" I asked
"Mom you go first" Alfonso said
"Okay, hmm Greggy you are too old enough and you know everything, may apo kana at hindi kana bata, just enjoy your life" Mommy said
"My turn? Dad, thank you for everything, and ayan may apo kana binigyan na kita kaya you know mag alaga ka din sometimes" Alfie said
"Dad, wag ka muna humingi saken kasi wala paa kong plano, just enjoy having Clyde, Gracie and Andy" Luis said
"Hmm dad, I don't have such enough words to say but i just want you to know that you have me happy birthday" i said
"Cheers" Alfie said
"Cheers, yung anak mo umiiyak na" kuya luis said
Umakyat naman ako para tingnan si Andy. I bet he's hungry since tapos na akong kumain pinababa ko na muna yung yaya ni Andy para sya naman yung kumain.
Pinadede ko lang si Andy saka ko hinele para bumalik sa tulog. Hiniga ko lang si Andy sa kama nung nakatulog na sya at binantayan ko lang hanggang sa nakatulog na din ako...
(Irene's pov)
Hinahanap ni Greggy si Gracie para mag paalam na uuwe na pero di ko sya makita.
Umakyat ako sa taas para tingnan si Gracie at nakita kong nakahiga sya sa tabi ni Andy.
Gising si Andy pero tulog si Gracie kaya naman binuhat ko ang bata at pinatulog saka nilagay sa Crib.
Inayos ko lang ng tayo si Gracie at kinumutan. Mukang pagod na pagod sya sa ginawa nyang surprise sa daddy nya.
"Knock knock" Greggy said
"Oh hi Greggy, ano uuwe na ba kayo?" I asked
"Nakatulog na din tong si Clyde eh" he said habang buhat buhat si Clyde
"Dito na lang kayo mag palipas ng gabi, you're drunk din eh" i said
"Okay lang ba? Nahihilo nga ako eh" he said
"Dun na lang sa guestroom" i said
"Dito na lang kami ni Clyde, si clyde sa tabi ng ate nya tas ako dito sa comforter, ikaw san ka ba?" He asked
"Ano, dito din siguro baka dyan sa sofa bed" i said
"Malaki naman tong kama, dito kana lang di naman malikot si Clyde" he said
Inihiga nya na si Clyde sa tbi ni gracie. Kumuha naman ako ng damit ni Greggy.
Nag palit lang din ako at saka ako humiga sa tabi ni Gracie at ni Clyde...
