The cake was half-eaten. Aileena was asleep on the wooden table, drooling, still holding her bottle like a trophy. And I was cleaning cups, rubbing it so hard because of the stain that wouldn't come off. "Easy there, tigress!" Eliza yelled at me and I smiled. I glanced at her — she was trying to put Andrea's party hat straight, Fathime was on Derek's lap smearing chocolate on his puff see-through jacket. And I was beside Zexchiel now, wiping chocolate off my white blazer. I was so focused on cleaning my blazer that I didn't notice the lights outside went bright. I looked at it and thought the fairy lights would come off, but it was just a car light. A black car parked right in front of our glass door. Not our usual customers' tricycle, not a delivery bike. A black Alphard, shiny. Eliza froze. "Who's that..." Derek froze harder. And I saw how anxious he looks even with the thick makeup he has on his face. The car door opened. And we watched at the glass door. It was Mr. Kade Fl

Silence. The music was loud so I decided to take the call outside. I held my breath and sighed. "Pa, I can explain—" He sighed, then laughed. "Your mom would be proud. She did the same before, like always! Helping me judge all the designs, the technical problems and about businesses by day, feeding stray kids by night. And I know you got her gene." I laughed and I felt tears again. "So... you're not mad?" "Mad? Hija, you won a custody case without using my money. You used your intelligence and your younger sister's hard work. That's more professional and hard working than stamping designs." My heart aches, not from pain, but the joy I felt hearing those words. "Come home later and bring your younger sister and bring the twins also, your mom misses them." I agreed. "Oh, and bring Derek. I want to meet my other... co-guardian's family." Call ended. I stood outside the cafe, fairy lights behind me, Eliza still screaming bleeding love with broom mic, and twins free ins

For the first time since we opened, we decided to close the cafe not because there were no customers or we were preparing for new flavors or events, but because there were too many emotions that needed to be celebrated. The case! Tables were pushed together with the guys. The fairy lights were on one by one, glittering different colors in my eyes. Eliza's speaker playing random party music was too loud while she took a broom to make it her microphone. "Keep bleeding I keep, keep bleeding love!" she screamed. And Aileena joined her and I face-palmed. I laughed too hard when I saw them covering their ears because of Eliza, and I agreed to it, because she has the voice of a donkey. Andrea and Fathime's little shoes on top of the counter, both asleep now in the staff room, curled on my extra apron like cats. As I gazed at them earlier, they were peaceful, because they were now free. Finally free from the grasp of their mother. I looked at them in the window and my heart melted.

Weeks later, we didn't know that time was ticking so fast.As we entered the courtroom, it smelled like old wood and the aircon was too cold.I was sitting on the wooden cold bench, Fathime asleep on my lap, while Andrea was gripping my right arm like it was her lifeline. My outfit today was my usual office blazer, white, with my cafe apron still folded in my bag. Because after my boss mode, I will escape reality and do my hobby. My CEO and tita mode at the same time.Derek was beside me, hands shaking so hard he kept wiping them on his puff see-through jacket paired with a sleeveless top and a denim skirt. And I knew he didn't sleep. His eyes were still swollen red. Because he prepared for this moment.Eliza was pacing at the back, holding coffee she wasn't drinking. "Where is she? Where is your sister?" she asked while shaking her legs with a blank face."She said she will go at 9AM sharp," I whispered.My phone buzzed.Papa kong pogiWhere are you? Meeting moved to 1PM. Be there in

The whole cafe went quiet. Customers staring. Phones starting to record. I glanced at the staff who was watching the drama and I widened my eyes to signal them. They instantly nodded and pushed the customers away, closing the glass door, flipping the sign to CLOSED. My face burned hot, and my fingers turned into fists. I knew that using my knuckles to punch her right now would be useless. If I act now, she will use it as evidence. She wants me to hit her. I looked at Andrea, who was now crying silently behind Derek's leg, and Fathime, who buried her face in Derek's sweaty neck, sobbing hard. I was suddenly shot with agony. They were just kids. Five years old? Six? They shouldn't hear this. They shouldn't hear their Kuya being called mentally unstable, unemployed, a bad influence. Without a second thought, I snatched Fathime from Derek's arms and held Andrea's arm. Fathime was so light, so small, her tears were wetting my pink dress. Andrea clutched my hand like I was her l

"So this is where you're hiding them, Derek?" Her voice was soft, pretty, but sharp like scissors. Just like her demeanor. I thought she was a model earlier, but I didn't know she really is a lawyer. A dangerous one. I glanced at Derek and he was frozen where he stands. His arms tightened around Fathime. Andrea hid further behind his leg, gripping his pants so tight her knuckles turned white. I suddenly felt the urge and the tension between them so thick you could cut it with a knife, and I stepped forward. "Excuse me, who are you?" I said, looking at her, balancing my emotions around her level. I tried to sound like CEO Aifia, not cafe Aifia. She flipped her black folder open. And I saw that logo. And now I know where I saw it. It was a Clorexed seal. Gold dove. The same logo as Derek's crumpled, sweaty paper earlier this morning. She smiled, but her eyes didn't. I felt her coldness cling to my body slowly, like the winter wind inside our warm cafe. "Atty. Cassandra L. Vill
