Kabanata Apatnapu't-dalawa
(What a bad timing)
Ella Pov.

"MOMI! Wake up because you still have a job." I heard Carlos beautiful voice as he kissed my whole face causing me to smile.

"Maganda umaga." Sabi ko at niyakap siya.

"Hindi maganda ang umaga, momi. Wala tayong ulam na luto dahil hindi ko maabot ang stove para magluto." I refrained from laughing because of what he said and slowly got up. He ran out of the room and I saw that he was already arranging his belongings because he had a class today.

It's not for him to cook since he was just ten years old and all he need to do was be a good boy. After I took a bath, I quickly cooked for breakfast for the three of us and soon I finished everything and set the table.

"Mommy! Look, I'm done bathing alone." I heard a child's voice cause my heart to soften. I turned around quickly and my four years old son open up to me and he was naked while his body and hair were wet.

"Did you forget to get dressed again?" I asked and even though he was wet I quickly picked him up.

"Ginigising ka po kasi ni kuya kanina at hindi ko siya matawag para kunin ang damit ko sa loob ng damitan natin." Sabi niya.

I gently pinched his sharp nose before calling Carlos to eat and Dominus and I entered the room. I dressed him up while I couldn't help but smile because he was laughing incessantly and his saliva was dripping.

Four years since I hide the truth from Dominic and four years have passed since I ran away from him. We headed to Mindoro and there, I just found out that I was two months pregnant. What a bad timing.

I couldn't approach Dominic at that time because the news was strong that a lot was happening to their family and that his house was about to be flooded but thankfully it didn't work out.

But by this time, I was ready to tell the truth and for my son as well. He has been looking for his daddy for years, parati niyang tinatanong kung bakit wala ang daddy niya at ang mga litrato lang ni Dominic sa magazine ang nakikita niya, Marami na rin akong kasinungalingang nagawa.

I shown pictures of dominic a lot and say that he is their daddy. "Mommy, gutom na ako." I came back to the present when I heard what Dominus said and I just smiled and told him to go to the kitchen.

"Kuya! Look and I'm more handsome than you." Dominus laughed at his older brother and Carlos just looked at him sharply. These two are always fighting but the love for each other still dominates.

"ELLA! Have you done something new?" Zahava asked when I entered my office. I just smiled at her before handing over the folder where my designs were.

"Zahava, may balita ba sa kanya?" Tanong ko nang akmang lalabas ito, tumingin siya sa 'kin at dahan-dahang tumango.

"Sa big event na gaganapin ngayon, narinig ko na babalik ng Pilipinas si Dominic. Ito na ang tamang oras para mag-usap kayo." She said and held my hands tightly causing me to just smile at her forcefully.

I don't know if Dominic still want me and love me.

"Don't worry, I know how much Dominic love you and I'm sure his heart will go crazy when he see you plus your children again, especially Dominus." I took a deep breath for what she said and thanked her before she left my office.

Zahava knows everything and  I asked for favor to hid the truth from Dominic first after a few years.

Dominic Pov.

I PUT on my glasses when I got off the plane. Philippines... it's been two years since I left and now I'm back. I got in the car and my butler and I quickly headed home and almost all of my men bowed when I arrived.

"Have you fixed the things I need for tomorrow's event?" I asked and they nodded quickly so I sat on the veranda while drinking black wine.

When I came here again there was only one inside of my  mind. Cara mia, it's been a few years but she who is my cara mia are still the cries of my heart and mind.

I wonder if she has a husband or a child. But when we meet again, I don't have a paw if someone owns her because I will take her with me.

"Well, I'm happy that you're back." Isang boses ang narinig ko mula sa pinto at nakita ko na si Zion 'yon.

"What's up." I said and invited him for a drink and he quickly accepted.

"How are you? Your plans with Aries? I know that until now he hasn't stop attacking you." He said and drink a wine.

"Well, that's why I'm here to end it all." I said and I even heard his soft laugh once the glass landed on the table.

"Congrats! And another child has added to your family." I said.

Zahava gave birth three years ago and this is me being an uncle again. "You're getting older Dominic, find a woman who will give you children and build your life." He said and patted my shoulder.

Isang babae lang ang makapagbibigay ng mga 'yon, at si Ella. Siya lamang at sisiguradohin ko na mahanap siya ngayon sa Mindoro at maging akin ulit.

Soon, Zion also left the house, which is why I started to leave and go to my company. Lahat lahat ng mga trabahador ay yumuko nang makita ako at hindi ko lamang sila pinapansin pagkatapos ay pumasok na sa opisina ko.

I look at the part of my office and nothing change even the reflection of Ella still here. Her pictures was on my table and also our picture while I was kissing her cheek then she was smiling and closing her eyes with the camera.

"I missed you, cara mia." Sabi ko at umupo na lamang sa upuan pagkatapos ay hindi mapigilang yakapin ang litrato.
