I am so excited!
Today is the last day of the semester.
I am planning to surprise my wife. May ticket na kami for a trip to Paris. We'll spend a week there. Yung sa hotel ay si Jema na lang ang papipiliin ko.
Dun muna yung mga bata mag-i-stay kina Mommy.
Pauwi na ko ngayon. I bought five boxes of pizza and a bottle of William Fevre Chablis.
All of Jema's favorites.
It's like a celebration for her finishing of the first semester.
Grabe hirap na pinagdaanan ni Love, isang sem pa lang yun ah. What more pa kaya in the next coming semesters.
Tama lang siguro na icelebrate namin yung bawat sem na matatapos niya.
I parked my car and took my pasalubongs as I knocked on the main door.
My hands are full kaya yung bote na lang ng wine ang pinangkatok ko.
Deti opened the door for me.
I went straight to the kitchen as usual, nandito siya lagi pag uuwi ako, preparing our dinner.
At wala siya.
Malinis na rin ang kusina. Nagluto ba siya?
Pagbalik ko sa living room ay wala na rin si Deti.
Wala ring tao sa siesta room.
Bakit ang tahimik ng bahay ko?
I went upstairs and...
"S U R P R I S E ! ! !"
There are golden balloon letters that says:
SURPRISE!
Para saan to?
Diba ang surprise ay sinisigaw lang tapos nakalagay sa balloon ay yung reason?
Hindi ko naman birthday. At ako nga ang may pasurprise kasi sasabihin ko na kay Jema na magbabakasyon kami eh.
On the center table in the common room there is a cake, lasagna, a bowl of chicken lollipops and a bucketful of beer.
So para sa akin talaga yung surprise?
My kids are giggling. I don't know if it is because they are in the midst of a small party for me or they are excited for the food. They are eyeing the chicken eh.
Lagi kasing gulay ang dinner nila.
My wife came out of our room.
She was holding a very large envelope.
Large as in parang dalawang A4 ito na magkadikit vertically.
Parang blueprint din ng bahay eh.
May binili bang property si Jema?
My wife handed it to me.
Nakangiti siya ng bonggang-bongga.
"Nakabuo na ba ulit tayo?"
Tanong ko sa kanya. Baka pregnancy test result ang laman eh.
"Gago!"
She mouthed. Baka kasi marinig ng mga bata 😄.
Guwapo daw ako sabi ng asawa ko.
