Chasing Chances [TSC Book 2]°KathNiel° ✓COMPLETE

Chapter Thirteen: Welcome

Tili ni Chance ang sumalubong sa'min ni Chances nang makapasok kami ng bahay. Sigurado akong kung wala sa study sila ni mommy, nasa kusina sila. Napatigil ako nang balingan ko ang asawa ko.

"Baby, are you okay?"

Humawak siya sa kamay ko bago sumagot.

"Kinakabahan ako." Pag-amin niya.

Smiling, I faced her to give her the assurance that everything will turn out fine. Gently, I pressed my lips on her forehead.

"I love you, babe."

"I love you, Zacchary."

Hahalikan ko na sana siya dala ng sayang nararamdaman ko kaya lang natigilan ako dahil sa pagtawag ng munti naming anghel. My little Champ.

"Daddy?"

Humarap agad ako rito. Walang kangiti-ngiti si Zac dahil nakatulala siya habang nakatitig sa mommy niya. Binalingan ko si Chances na ngayon ay umiiyak habang sinasalubong ng titig ang aming anak. Siya na ang tumakbo para yakapin ito. Humahagulhol si Chances habang nakatitig naman sa'kin si Zac na parang hindi alam kung ano ang nangyayari.

"Mommy? Are you real this time, mom?" He eventually muttered, innocence manifested in his voice.

Matagal saka nakasagot si Chances. Habang hinawakan sa magkabilang pisngi ang anak namin, umiiyak siya. "Babyboy, yes." She cried out but she tried to smile. "Oh, honey."She caressed his face again, with so much longing. Tears kept spurting out from her eyes. "You look so..." Her lips trembled so she just embraced our son again.

"Mom, why are you crying?"

"I remember you. I saw you at the park with your sister and dad. Right? Where is she? Where's your sister?"

"Ah. I-I don't know. With mommy lola, maybe." He replied. Sweetly, Zac wiped the tears of her mother's cheek. "Mommy, I think you shouldn't cry. I'll get my sister for you. Please just don't cry." He iterated. "You shouldn't be crying mommy."

Chances chuckled.

"Why?"

"Because I hate it and you look like Chanchan when she cries." He reasoned which Chances and I laughed at.

"Daddy?" Oh. That's our princess sweet little voice "Mommy?"

Napalingon kaming tatlo sa kanya na kasama si mama. Yumakap ang anak namin kay mama at umiyak ng malakas. She always cries loudly.

"Zacc, anak?" She asked. Nilakihan niya ako ng mga mata, nagtatanong. Kaya naman lumapit na ako sa kanya.

"We'll talk later ma. Can I have Chance for a while?"

Sinilip niya si Chances na nakayakap parin kay Zac. Masama ang tingin niya rito.

"Ma?"

"No. Gwen! Gwen!" Tawag niya sa yaya ng mga bata.

"Ma, ano ba?" Impit na saway ko sa kanya.

Lumapit si Gwen na sinenyasan ni mama para kunin si Zac. Chances, helpless, let go of our son. Hurt was written in her eyes. Nang ibaba ni mama si Chance para sumama kay Gwen at Zacc, tumakbo ito papunta kay Chances. She embraced her like how she did last time. No'ng makita niya sa park si Chances, ayon sa kwento ni Mr. Vinzon at ni Zac, mahigpit na niyakap ng anak ko ang mommy niya. She was so sure.
