2024-10-29 19:42:56Jonas stood up and smiled at me. My heart melted. He fixed my hair.
"Let's sleep? We'll rest now," he said.
"You shower up first. I don't like stinky people," I joked.
"After this, ha? I miss you." He kissed my left cheek before he disappeared out of my sight.
I went to our room first. When Jonas and I moved to the next level of our relationship, we decided to occupy his room. Sometimes even in the middle of the night, I suddenly wake up to drink a water. I needed assistance and Jonas offered a service.
After Jonas taking a bath, he changed his clothes. I was sitting comfortably on the bed while my back was pressed on the wall. I watched Jonas changing his clothes. His arms were red because the sun burnt it.
"Hi," he winked at me. "I'm done."
"You look tired, love. Come here, let's sleep together."
He crawled on bed and went to me. He lied next to me. He stole a kiss from my cheek.
"How are you?" He asked.

I ran my palm against the smoothness of my bed. I tapped the space beside me. I opened my left eye only to see Jonas was gone.I got up from bed and stretched my body. I went out the room and looked for Jonas. I saw him cooking something in the kitchen. The smell of peanut butter captured my nostrils."What are you cooking, love?" I asked Jonas. I went to him and hugged him from behind. I kissed his nape, making him flinch. I smiled in an instant."Kare-kare, love. You like it?""Okay," I snaked my arms around his waist and buried my face on his back. I sniffed him. "You smell so good today.""Really? I don't wear any perfumes.""It's okay. I think my senses are getting better."His body moved and then he removed my arms around his body. He turned around and faced me."Is there something you want to tell me?" He asked patiently.

My pregnancy journey went well because I had my parents who were always supportive, especially Jonas who has been with me from the very beginning. He has done all things perfectly. He also make sure that I was following my doctor's instructions."Is it leading to marriage?-" Morayta teased. "Isn't it Thrante and Baste had reconciled?""Yes, girl. I'm happy for them. In fact, they have a baby boy too.""It was posted on Baste's ig account. He was a proud dad of Fiel Amor.""You're right, girl," Haponesa agreed. "Best dad ever!""What about you guys? Still no plan on getting a boyfriend?" I asked them."So, you're asking us as if Jonas is your boyfriend?" Morayta mocked and rolled her eyes."Yeah," I blushed. "Jonas is my boyfriend. For real.""Wow! That's probably your longest partner?""Don't mention it," Morthena waved her hands dismissively. "After what Jaydi did to her? Look what he made her do!"We cracked a l

I felt the tortorous pain after giving birth to Uno. I felt exhausted and was unable to move. I slowly opened my eyes. I sighed a breath of relief."Love?" Jonas called, holding my right hand."L-Love," I called out lifelessly. "W-Where's our baby?""He is sleeping, love.""Can I see him?"Tears welled in his eyes. He sniffed and smiled. He leaned closer and kissed my forehead."You did a great job, love. I'm so proud of you," he said in between his low cry. "You rest first. Uno will be here anytime soon.""I'm hungry, love. How long did I sleep?"He checked his golden wristwatch then turned to me again."Five hours," he stated. "What do you want to eat? Your parents are coming over.""Anything, love. Just don't give me something smelly.""Okay. Can you wait?""Hmm," I gave him a small smile."I'll be back. I'm not taking long."He kissed my forehead first before he left the room. When

When Uno turned three months old, he and Fial was christened at the same time. Everyone was shocked, especially Jonas and I's circle of friends, when they found out we have a baby already. Jonas didn't tell his friends Ethan, Ximi and Baste"We thought Jonas will remain forever single and virgin," Ximi said in between his laugh. "Who would have thought he has Uno?""We never planned this either, Ximi. It just happened," I replied. "But we're happy."Jonas and I are blissful with each other. We have no problem or any fight. I was the one adjusting to his schedule. He will just make up in his day off."I'm glad you guys are happy," he said with a smile."How about you with Luca?"Luca was his wife. They already have a baby too."We're good, E. We're happy too."Luca and Ximi smiled. What a lovely couple.A week after t

"Why are you late?" I asked coldly.I confronted Jonas when he went home so late in the evening. I noticed how late he went home like it's his regular schedule. Sometimes he went home around one in the morning."Work, love. Why are you still awake?" He asked back, his voice was rough and tired."I waited you all day and night. What kind of work are you doing and why it is consuming your time?"I never demanded his attention, his time and presence. My point was he never had the time to take care of Uno."Love, can we talk about it the other day? I'm tired-""I am also tired taking care of your child, Jonas. I am not asking you to give me attention but have you forgotten about Uno?"He closed his eyes and breathed heavily. He was trying to control his anger. I can sense it."So, what do you want me to do?" He asked calmly but I could still feel his anger.I took a deep breath and walked away. I sat on the edge of my bed an

After that, we went back to our son. Uno was being carried by Manang Marites. He was silent, throwing his hands in the air. He was wearing mittens and booties."Thank you, Manang," I said to Manang and carefully took my son in my arms. "I'll change his diaper now.""I will cook. What do you want to eat later?""Sinigang na baboy, Manang. Thank you.""I'll cook, Manang," Jonas butted in from behind me. "I think you should take a rest.""Okay, but if you need something, just call me in my room."I smiled to Manang Marites before she left. Jonas and I were left here in the living room."I'll just prepare our lunch, love," Jonas told me."Sure, love. Thank you." I smiled to him.I changed Uno's diaper first. I applied petroleum jelly for the baby on his thigh because that's what Mommy taught me."Be g

I woke up when something was hitting my breast. When I opened my eyes, I realized Uno was stomping his feet against my chest. He was whimpering."Uno," I called in my husky voice. My throat felt dry.I changed his position, pulling him closer to me. I pulled up the hem of my dress and breastfed my son. I knew this was what he needed."Wake up, love. It's already ten in the morning," I heard Jonas' voice but I didn't know where was that coming from.I ignored him. I was still sleepy for pete's sake. Uno slept around two in the morning and do did I. If I will force myself to get up, it would only hurt my head."Love," Jonas' annoying voice. "Get up already. We have to feed Uno."Having no choice, I opened my eyes and searched for Jonas. He was fixing our bed without me knowing it."Uno will take a bath and we will feed him after," he said cheerfully. His smiles were as radiating as the sunrise.Today was the first day that

We went down the stairs after that. Uno was ready to eat for the first time. Jonas was the one who prepared it. But before that, we soaked that feeding bowl and silicone spoon on a hot water."It looks like a smoothie," I remarked as Jonas was mixing the infant cereal.I put the baby bib around Uno's neck. Jonas chose it. It was a blue elephant with a statement below it saying, "Mommy's best boy.""Yes, love," he agreed.Since I don't know how to feed Uno, I let Jonas do it while I was watching him. I studied how Jonas put a generous amount of cereal on the silicone spoon and fed Uno with it. Uno was sitting on my lap while Jonas was sitting across from us."It looks like you have been doing this before," I commented.If it was me, my hands will probably shake. But for him, it was like he used to do it."I have younger siblings and I used to feed

Someone knocked on the door, stopping our moment. I heard a little voice and that's when I realized we left Uno downstairs."Mama?" He called.Jonas and I looked at eacher. We both laughed upon realizing Uno was outside the room. I pulled away from him and marched the way out. I opened the door for Uno."Mama, what's taking you so long?" He asked innocently."Sorry, Uno. I almost forgot you.""Can we sleep now, Mama?""We haven't taken our dinner yet, Uno. Are you sleepy already?""Yes, Mama. Can I sleep beside you and Papa?"I glanced at Jonas. He nodded. I turned to Uno again."Of course, Uno. Mama will just change, okay?""Okay, Mama. Please hurry up."I chuckled. "Sure, Uno."I changed my clothes quickly. After that, I lied next to my little family."Mama," Uno called. He was between me and Jonas."Yes, Uno?""I don't have siblings, Mama?""You want one?""Uh-hu

"I'm home!" I declared excitedly and went inside the house. I looked after Jonas and Uno. I saw them both in the living room while studying. Jonas was teaching his son to read.Uno looked up at me and smiled widely. "Mama!" He called and ran towards me. I lowered my hips so he could reach me."I miss you, baby!" I kissed his cheek."Look, Mama! Papa teaches me how to read!""Oh, that's nice, Uno."I rose to my feet. Jonas welcomed me and kissed me on my cheek as well.I decided to give Jonas another chance to be part of our lives and to give myself another chance to be his partner. Now, we were happy again. Uno was happy to be with his father."Hi, love," I greeted."Are you hungry?""Not much, love. Have you eaten already?""Yup. Before we study.""Okay. I'll just go upstairs to change my clothes.""Can I join?""Huh?"He chuckled. "Alright. You go up now.""Wanna come with me?"

"How are you?" He asked me the moment he started driving."I'm fine. How about you?" I casually answered and asked him the same question."I'm all good. Kinda busy.""Same. Tomorrow we will start the renovation of our restaurant.""I heard that from Baste. You hired Thrante to be your engineer.""You heard it right. Yet, this is a business deal and money is involved."""Our restaurant", what do you mean?""Vince is with me, Joe. We're partners.""Vince what?" He glanced at me."Vince Vega. You know him?""Yeah... the chef?""Yes," I confirmed.Silence followed. I glanced outside the window, wondering where he was taking me."Where are we going?" I asked, roaming my eyes outside the car."Anywhere."I peered at his side, "W

We bid our goodbyes to each other after that. Thrante went home to Taguig while I went home to where I originally lived. When I arrived inside the house, I saw Uno singing his ABCD. I went to him and hugged him."How's your study, Uno?" I asked and knelt in front of him.Mommy started tutoring him at the age of three. I reasoned our Uno was still so young to start learning but she insisted. She argued I was three years old when I first learned the ABCD. She believed Uno was smart he could learn easily."I'm fine, Mama. ABCD is fun!" He smiled widely, revealing his complete teeth."Really?" I mirrored his smile because it was contagious. "Can I have a kiss?"He hugged my neck, "Muah!" He planted a long kiss on my cheeks. "Let's eat, Mama!"I pulled away, holding both of his arms."What do you want me to cook?""Pasta! Yehey!"

"We can start the renovation tomorrow," Thrante told me as she checked my blueprint."Thank you, Engineer Marcado," I smiled to her."Congratulations," she shook her hand with mine.After four years of studying culinary arts, finally I had the time to renovate our property here in Manila. Mommy gave this to me as her gift while Dad gave me a brand new car."Coffee after this?" I offered."Sure!" She agreed happily.We went to our favorite coffee shop—not the usual coffee shop where my friends and I went. Thrante and I had our own favorite coffee shop."So, how's life lately?" She started, grinning happily. We already ordered our coffee."I'm so excited to this new restaurant, caz. Like I can't believe this is actually happening!" I clapped in excitement.Eversince I started schooling, I had dreamt this day to happen. I did my best in school and now I finally finished it. And not just that, I would be having a resta

When the call ended, I hoped things would get better for both of us. I sighed heavily as I felt lonely. I missed him in my arms.The truth was, I didn't like this set up. I could not hug him. I could not feel him on my skin. We had a schedule of our talk and we often times talked about Lola Helena. That became the cycle of our lives.But for him I would endure this feeling of wanting him to stay by my side. I knew he was struggling too. He surely didn't like this set up. I had to adjust and understand because he too had needs but he was holding back himself. He endured the loneliness and pain.I brought down my phone on the bedside table. I crawled on bed and lied next to Uno. He now slept next to me so that whenever he would wake up, I didn't need to get up and get him. It would be easy for me to breastfeed him if he would sleep next to me.The following morning, I woke up when I heard a loud bang on the

I went home and saw Jonas standing near the window of our room. He was holding a mug, probably it was his favorite coffee."Love?" I called and walked inside. He spun around and looked straight at me. He gave me a small smile after. "I'm home."He brought down his mug on the bedside table and spread his arms wide. I did the same thing and let him engulf me around his arms."I miss you," I whispered.I clung my arms around his neck and placed the side of my face on his chest. He smelled like a blooming flower in the garden. Favorite fabcon niya 'yong luxe perfume.His chest moved as he breathed sharply, his body tensed. I tucked my head just below his chin and glided my body against his."Love, you know that I am here for you. You don't have to solo your battles," I told him.I knew it was strange for him to open up his heart to someone. He lived h

Manang told me to go upstairs already. She will be the one to finish cleaning the sink. I should be resting now and be with my little family.I was careful not to create any unnecessart noise. I silently opened the door and peaked inside. I saw Jonas and Uno sleeping peacefully on our bed. I smiled and locked the door.I watched them two. It was peaceful to see them like that. My heart was happy.When Uno turned eight months, I trained him to walk. He could stand up on his own but he needed something to hold on to."Come to Mama, Uno!" I played with him.The edge of the sofa was supporting his back. His arms were spread wide, trying to balance while learning how to walk too. He could stand but he was afraid to step forward."You can do it, baby! Come on!"I clapped my hands. He giggled and lost his balance. I was quick to catch him."Come!" I encouraged him.Everyday I was practicing him to walk. I reached out to him his

"I'm planning to study abroad, Mommy. What do you think?"I wanted to consider studying abroad where I could learn a lot. I was thinking of France since I loved its culture."That's good, honey. It will be better if you will study abroad.""I'll take Uno with me.""What about Jonas? Do you think he will permit you?""I... don't know," I shrugged.I hadn't discussed this to Jonas yet. What I knew was he would support my decision to study culinary arts."It's only four years, Ma. By that time, Uno will be four years also.""You have to discuss this to Jonas first, honey. I don't have any problem if you really want to study abroad. You can take Uno with you but think about Jonas too.""Then I will take him with us, Mommy.""For four years?""He will take care of Uno while I am busy studying.""Where will you get your source of income? If Jonas will stop working, what will happen to Uno?"I
