When the twins woke up in the morning and discovered Greg and Jenna were no longer there, they both cried. I was hugging Thor, and Eugene was hugging Loki. We're sitting on the sofa, comforting the two boys who are now in distress. "Shh, boys, stop crying already... your throat might hurt if you keep crying like this," I said as I patted Thor's back as his sobs became more intense."Will Kuya Gweg return here?" Loki asked, his voice hoarse.I wiped Loki's tears away with my cheek. My poor babies... hearing their cries makes my heart ache."I don't know, baby, but we don't know... maybe someday Kuya Greg and you will meet again in some other places. Kuya Greg just left to live somewhere far away from here, but that doesn't mean he's completely gone, right? There's still a chance you and Thor will meet him. Soon babies...""How soon is that?" Thor asked."We don't know when, son," Eugene replied, "but remember that even if a friend leaves, the bond and memories you create will last for
As the twins get older, they go through a lot of changes. Thor and Loki became more mischievous and witty. When Eugene, Thor, and Loki get together, there is always a lot of trouble because their attitudes are all the same. Because of Eugene's childish attitude, I only had one headache before, but now I have three. Anyway, I'm not annoyed... I love the three of them, especially when they make each other laugh; it brings me such joy."I know bro, I saw her in the movie before,"My head tilted to look at Loki, who was now talking to his brother. I simply listen to him quietly. They've been talking nonstop since we left the school."Hm, she reminds me of Sadako," Thor replied to Loki. What's up with the shaken tone, baby?I stop the car in front of the company. I intend to take the kids to Eugene because I know his meetings will be over by this time. We walk into the building and everyone looks at us, some shocked and curious but most of them are amused. This is not the first time I've
God knows how happy I am that Eugene and I are going to have a child. Even though there is no bulge in my stomach, my heart continues to race just thinking that...I am now carrying the fruit of our love. "Hey there little bean, Mommy is here; did you sleep well?" I ask, looking out the window as the sun rises. We were so happy last night that we slept late. We spend so much time discussing the baby's name because everyone is so excited.I smiled as I felt another hand caress and touch my stomach."Goodmorning Wife, Goodmorning Baby," he said sweetly, kissing me on the lips and even planting small kisses on my stomach before heading straight to the bathroom.I can't believe he woke up so early and didn't say he needed five more minutes of sleep. I just chuckled before getting up to check on the twins because their babysitter is not here due to a personal matter. It's a good thing I don't have anything important on my schedule today so I can take care of them myself.I carefully open t
My mind went blank, and I can almost hear the painful, harsh breathing in my chest. What the hell did I hear? My hand started shaking as I tucked my hair behind my ear and smiled at the doctor."But I used two test kits and it shows two red lines, and lately my mood has been different, I vomit in the morning, get easily dizzy, and I don't like some particular smell... all of that is a sign of a pregnant person, right?" my voice trembles in fear and heartache.Frustration and disappointment... I'm not just thinking about myself; I'm worried about Eugene's reaction and the twins. They were overjoyed when they found out, and then this happened...The doctor explained how I could have mistakenly assumed I was pregnant, as some women who are eager to have a baby on their own... Because my mind isn't in the right place right now, the rest of her words didn't sink in. She even offered me a pill that would get me pregnant quickly. I simply left that location without the pills. I ended up sitt
The silence in the office is making me feel more emotional. I stare at him while he sleeps soundly on the sofa, and you can tell he's happy just by looking at him. I close my eyes and lean against his chest."I love you, I'm sorry I lied, I'm sorry, I just don't want to hurt you hon," I cried quietly, burying my face in his neck.I lied to protect him. I didn't want him to lose his smile; the brightness in his eye while holding my stomach because he thought there was a child inside made my heart ache."What's the problem, wife?"I held my breath when he suddenly spoke; I think my silent sobs woke him up.When I looked at him, I noticed his solemn expression. I quickly smile and brush my fingers across his cheeks."N-nothing, I'm just happy...yeah' I'm just glad you're here with me," I said, not looking into his eyes.He sighed and hugged me more gently, kissing my forehead."I know pregnant women are emotional, but hearing your sobs, my wife, breaks my heart... " he held my chin and f
My cries can almost be heard echoing throughout the parking lot. I don't mind if a few people are staring at me right now. I sit on the floor when my knees become weakened from crying so much.This is what I'm afraid of: the two of us fighting and hurting each other. If I hadn't lied to him, maybe things would be different right now; everything is so messed up now that another woman is involved.Because I lied to him, I'm paranoid that he's also lying to me. I'm afraid he's hiding something from me as well, which is why when I saw them earlier, I assumed he was cheating on me. I am the one who has this secret that I am keeping from him, and yet I am the one who dares to be mad.I should not have said that, and I should not have doubted him. Eugene was my best friend before he married me. Of all the people on the planet, I should be the one who knows him best... But I've already hurt him with what I said.I should not have run away when I saw that woman kiss him; instead, I should have
I can't move my body; it's as if I'm awake but not. Even though it's quiet, I can hear the noise in my surroundings. I can hear an engine and many people's footsteps. What am I doing here?After a while, I can finally open my eyes. When the white ceiling and a dazzling white light struck my eyes, I quickly closed them. I try to open it again and look around.The place is all white, and it smells like alcohol or medicine, I'm not sure... but I'm pretty sure I'm in a hospital right now.When I remember all the commotion that occurs before I pass out, I put my hand in my stomach. When the door unexpectedly opened, I was startled. I looked at the person who opened the door and saw Eugene's perplexed expression while looking at me and not moving due to shock. He then walks closer to me, and I close my eyes as he kisses my forehead and caresses my face for a long time.He sat properly, his tired-looking eyes on me. I have a feeling he has something important to tell me, so I wait patiently
Eugene gave me a smile and stroked my arm. It is up to me whether or not I accept their apology.I looked to the front where the two Doctors were standing; their heads were bowed and they seemed sincere, but... it won't change the fact that I've been hurt for how many days because of her incorrect diagnosis.But is that necessary right now? I should just be grateful that I'm pregnant, right? I shouldn't make a big deal out of it because I believe the doctor didn't mean it. The most important thing right now is to find out if the baby I'm carrying is healthy and why it wasn't detected at first."It's fine, I accept your apology... but, can you tell me why that happened? Why didn't you detect the fetus in my womb that day? How's the fetus' condition right now? I remember I bled a lot. That's why I'm here... is the fetus okay?" I ask, getting emotional.When I became anxious while waiting for their response, I felt Eugene's touch trying to calm me down. "The fetus is not in its proper p
