"Pre! Ang small world! Kilala mo pala ang misis ko?" Reagan dropped the words like a bomb and I swear, sana lamunin ako ng lupa ng mga oras na yon.

Peter's eyes threw daggers at me as he talked to his friend.

"Kelan pa kayo kinasal?" There's a tone of amusement and a hint of anger in his voice when he unloaded the tray.

"Hindi ba, ganun naman talaga pag nakikita mo ang future mo sa kanya?" Reagan smirked.

"Kain tayo ng spaghetti, dada Rei!" Olga said to him cheerily. Hawak pa nya ang fries sa kaliwang kamay habang tinidor naman sa kabila.

Lumingon si Reagan sa kanya at sinabi, "See? Even the kids love me."
Binalik nya ang tingin sa anak ko at sinagot sya. "Sige lang, baby 'Ga. Busog pa si Dada Rei."

"Namiss po kita, Dada Rei!" Biglang bati ni Oliver na kanina ay nakaupo lang at kumakain ng spaghetti sa tabi ni Olga. Niyakap nya ang binti ni Reagan at siya namang ikinatuwa ng lalaki.

"Aww. I miss you too, Oliver." Reagan said in a soft voice and bent to kiss down his head.

"Miss you, Dada Rei!" Olga added and hugged his legs too.

Reagan did the same to her and watch as the twins returned to their seats and continue eating.

Pansin ko na nakakatawag na kami ng atensyon at may ilan na kumukuha ng picture namen sa mga cellphone nila.

"Uh, Reagan, tara kain ka muna. Peter, kain na tayo." Pagsisimula ko para mabaling ang atensyon nila sa isa't isa.

Mukhang anumang oras ay magkakaroon ng giyera sa pagitan ng dalawa kaya pumagitna na ako.

Nakatayo na din ang dalawa sa apat na bodyguards namin ni Peter na handa na umawat at patulan si Reagan.

"Peter? So, you still go by that name, So Jin?" Reagan repeated and met his gaze, ignoring me.

"Reagan, please." I pleaded and made him turn his attention to me when I held his arm. "Let's not make a scene. Please. The kids."

Reagan drew a deep breath and turned to face me.
"Let's talk some time, Oli. I miss you a lot."

Those were his words before he left us at the fast food and he did not even bothered to bid his goodbye to the kids.

Peter sat beside me and drifted his attention to the twins before throwing me a side glance as if to say, we will talk later.

"Kumain ka na." Peter said and I followed what he said.

Suddenly, I don't have the appetite but nasasayangan ako sa binayad kaya pinilit kong ubusin ang spaghetti at sundae.

I did not want to ruin the mood so I smiled when the twins wanted to go to the bookstore.

One of the things I love about my children is their love for reading.

Olga loves fairy tales while Oliver is fascinated with science pictures.

At their young age, they feel happy knowing new words and vocabulary.

I feel proud because not every kid wanted books as much as they do.

Peter bought them their chosen books and we decided to go home.

We got home at around three in the afternoon and the kids started yawning upon arriving at our house.

Peter and I sent them to their bed and tuck them in to take their naps.

Once we were alone at the living room, I started feeling awkward around him.

"Sooo, misis ko ha?" Reagan asked and looked at me, as if asking me to explain.

I sighed and said,
"Reagan and I are friends. Yes, he did court me before but when he started doing business trips abroad, we rarely communicate. I didn't even know na uuwi sya at makikita ko sya doon!"

"Do you like him? Hindi sya maglalakas loob na ligawan ka if he doesn't feel na you ayaw mo sa kanya." He said.

"Yes. I liked him! Before! Okay? before!" I exclaimed.

"So, you mean, you don't like him now?" He asked and looked straight at me.

I blushed.

"Does this means I have a chance?" Peter asked and his lips curved into a smile.

I could feel my cheeks warmed up.

I nodded.

"Really? Talaga??" He asked again and I nodded.

Before we knew it, we were grinning like fools.

Tatayo na sana ako para kunin ang remote at buksan ang tv ng higitin nya ako palapit sa kanya.

Just then, I felt his soft lips on mine and I was swept away with the moment.

He stopped and stared at me not pulling away.

I opened my eyes and smiled between our kisses.

His hands found my waist and we kissed again.

We broke from the kiss when we ran out of air.

His ears reddened while I erupted into laughter.

"Malantong ka pala ah!" I joked and mas tinago nya ang mukha nya sa leeg ko.

I laughed again.

"Tingnan ko lang kung makatawa ka pa pag magkasama na tayo sa iisang bahay."

It was my turn to get shy.
