"Wren! Baon mo."

Amelia tapped Wren's shoulder nang palabas na ito at susundan ang mga ate nitong pasakay sa sasakyan ni Sam. Araw araw kasi ay sinasabay na ni Sam ang tatlo kapag papasok ito sa opisina. But Sam took a day off at ihahatid lang ang mga bata mamaya. They'll get to have an alone time later.

"W-Wait, Mom!"

Nagmamadaling kinuha nito ang binalot niyang tinapay sa tissue. Saka nag mamadaling lumabas ng bahay. Napailing na lang siya nang makitang hindi nito halos nagalaw ang pagkain nito. Meron pang tirang isang hotdog at itlog sa plato nito at hindi nito halos binawasan ang isang cup ng kanin na inilagay niya sa plato nito. Sa tatlong magkakapatid ito ang pinakapayat.

Hindi niya tuloy alam kung ano ang gagawin. Wren's already 10 years old. Madami itong sports pero ang kunti naman nitong kumain.

Sumunod siya sa labas ng bahay nila at nakita niyang nag aantay na doon ang mga anak niya at si Sam.

"We'll get going, baby. Hatid ko lang ang mga bata sa school." Sam winked at her after saying that.

"Ok. Mag iingat kayo. Message niyo akong apat kung nakarating na kayo doon."

"We will, Mom. Geez." Peyton rolled her eyes after saying that.

Tinapik naman ito ni Cohen sa kamay. Peyton pouted at her sister.

Amelia shook her head nag dadalaga na talaga ang mga anak niya.

Wren didn't even look at her. Nakatingin lang ito sa cellphone nito at pangiti ngiti habang nag t type. Mukhang kung sino man ang kausap nito ay masaya ito.

She kissed Sam on the lips. Cohen looked away and Peyton stuck her tongue out in disgust. Amelia smiled. Hindi niya alam na ganun ang magiging reaksiyon ng dalawa dahil hindi niya iyon naranasan noon. Her family is not complete. Kaya kahit ganito ang reaksiyon ng mga anak niya ay pinag papasalamat niyang buo sila.

Wren looked up and looked at her sisters with her mouth hanging open.

"What?"

"Don't ask." Cohen sighed.

Wren shrugged her shoulders and looked at her. "Mommy. Mag iingat po kayo mamaya."

Amelia pinched Wren's cheeks. Sweet naman ito kahit papaano. "Mag iingat din kayo."

Sam nodded at her. Tumango na lang din siya dito at kumaway sa mga ito. Pinaandar na ni Sam ang ssakyan palabas ng garahe nila. And Amelia went back para ayusin ang kalat sa kusina. She saw the maids already cleaned the table and washed the plates.

"Mam. Kami na po dito. Kayo na po ang nag luto. Kami na po ang mag aayos."

"Thank you." Amelia couldn't be more thankful na mababait din ang mga katulong nila. May kusa ang mga ito. Kaya naman mataas ang pasahod niya.

"Gusto mo ba ulit mag try?"

Sam looked at her sideways. They are off towards a resort somewhere in Batangas when Sam asked.

"I wanted to have a boy para kahit papaano ay may mag mamana ng apelyido natin Sam but if its not meant to be. Wala na tayong magagawa. I guess we'll have tres marias in our hands."

Sam chuckled. "What's wrong with our three girls? They're perfect. Nasa saiyo naman ang desisyon, baby. If you want to try for another child. Let's just hope it's a boy."

"I know." Amelia sighed and looked out of the window. "But I wanted the three girls to have a brother. Remember that time when all Wren wanted was a baby brother? It was all she asks us for the last 5 years every damn Christmas!"

Umalog ang balikat ni Sam sa pag tawa. "I didn't give her that idea. Maybe she wanted a brother dahil puro sila babae."

"Exactly but Wren became grumpy dahil hindi naman natin maibigay."

"Kaya pa ba ng matres mo?" Sam briefly looked at her. May pag aalala sa mukha nito.

Amelia smiled. "Well kung ikaw ang mag bubuntis why not?"

"Amelia. Nakita ko kung paano lumaki ang pwerta mo. I don't want to go through that."

Napasimangot siya sa sinabi nito. "Don't say that Sam. Motherhood is the best thing that could happen to a woman. You get to hold the most fragile thing in your hand and when you get to hold them. You just had this overwhelming feeling of love and the sense to protect them."

"I felt that kahit hindi ako ang nanganak kina Cohen, Peyton at Wren." Lumamlam ang mga mata nito. "And I always feel the need to protect you. So baby, kung hindi na kaya ng katawan mo. Please let's just stop with three."

Amelia sigh. Hindi na lang siya kumibo sa sinabi nito. But she wanted to have a baby boy. Bakit ba kasi ayaw siya nitong pag bigyan?

"Baby...."

Hinabol agad siya ni Sam nang makababa siya ng sasakyan nito.

Amelia looked at Sam's face. Napalabi ito. "Why do you want to have another baby again?"

"Because-----"Amelia don't know the reason herself. Baka gusto niya lang talagang may alagaan ulit siya dahil lumalaki na ang tatlo nilang anak. It gets lonely at times when she's home.

"See. If you wanted to have a kid just because Wren wanted to then we don't have to go through the pregnancy again."

"I-I'm lonely Sam. Lumalaki na sina Cohen. I feel like they are slowly slipping away from my hands."

Sam put her arms around her. Masuyo siya nitong niyakap. "Kids are going to grow up. Talagang darating ang araw na hihiwalay sila satin. They'll get married and build their own family. Tayong dalawa lang ang matitira. We still have each other if you get lonely."

Amelia hugged Sam tighter and cried on her shoulders. Tama si Sam. Cohen, Peyton and Wren will have their own family and she don't want to be selfish to keep them. Kagaya niya ay meron ding pangarap ang mga anak niya. Meron din mga gustong gawin sa buhay at balang araw ay makakahanap ang mga ito ng pag ibig. Siguro kailangan niya nang sanayin na may mga sekreto na ang mga ito na hindi sinasabi sa kanya. That her three girls are growing up and becoming a different person each day. Kailangan niya lang gabayan ang mga ito.

"Tahan na. We are here to enjoy. Minsan na nga lang tayo magkasama eh."

Sinilip ni Sam ang mukha niya. Amelia couldn't help but smile and laughed. Those eyebrows are up and down again like it was hinting at something.

Totoo nga. They have never been alone that much since they had kids. Maybe she'll make up for the alone time they never had.

"Alright. Let's just enjoy the day."

"That's what I'm saying, baby!"

Mabilis siyang hinalikan ni Sam sa labi at hinakawan nito ang mga kamay niya. Nag patianod na lang si Amelia dito. The kids will be fine kahit walang kapatid na lalake. She believes that family protects each other.
