Ena Marquez Villaurel Point of View

"Mommy! I'm hungry! Wake up! Rick is crying!"

My eyes widened when I heard a shout and a crash outside the door of Cedrick and I's room. I looked at my husband when he moved a little.

He opened his eyes slowly and looked for me. His eyes are full of love and eagerness. He smiled at me, and he grabbed me for a tight hug.

He brought his lips close to my ear and whispered, "Good morning, sweetie. I thought you left me. I love you always, my wife."

I slapped his chest because of the flutter I felt. I giggled and smiled without escaping his eyes.

"I love you, my sweetie. I won't leave you. Remember that. I love you and our kids. Is there any reason for me to leave you?" My eyebrows rose and I looked at him closely. Instead of answering me, he just hugged me and kissed me on the cheeks.

"Mama! Papa! Are you awake?! I'm hungry and Rick too!" Cedrick and I looked at each other and then laughed at the same time.

Our kids are calling for their breakfast.

Cedrick and I have two kids which are twin; a girl and a boy. Their name is Cedrena and Rick Villaurel; four years old. I never thought that it would happen, and I am happy with what I have now.

I got up from my bed. "Get up, sweetie. Our babies are calling, they're hungry."

He pouted and I know what he's asking for. A good morning kiss. I approached him and brought my face close to his. He waited for my kiss but I didn't do it. I put my lips close to his ear and whispered.

"Later, sweetie. Let's take care of the kids first. Okay?" I winked at him while grinning. I know he's disappointed. But I will put the children first. Maybe later, Cedrena and Rick hungry. Because when Cedrick and I started kissing each other, maybe we can go somewhere else.

I opened the door. Cedrena and Rick- my two babies are in tears.

"We've been calling one hundred times, Mama. Why you came out now? Where is papa? Rick and I are very hungry." Cedrena exclaimed.

"I'm sorry, babies. Mama and Papa were tired last night at the company. So Mama woke up late. Sorry babies." I turned my back on Cedrick as he spoke. He followed me.

"Are we going to Grandpa and Grandma's house?" Rick asked as we sat down in the chair to eat breakfast. He is referring to Cedrick's parents.

"Yes, baby. So eat now so we can go to Grandpa and Grandma's house. Then, we will go for a walk in the mall." Cedrick replied to Rick. Cedrena suddenly shouted 'yey' and Cedrick kissed her on the cheek.

Sometimes children are naughty.

"How's that, sweetie? We can't continue going to Medel? Maybe next time?" Cedrick asked me as he raised and lowered his eyebrow while looking at me.

"As always, yes, maybe next time. Besides, it's okay, I miss Aunt Federia and Uncle Fedrilo, too. No problem with that."

The time had passed quickly. I am in the room of my two children, I help them get dressed.

I have a companion, her name is Kida. She is the personal nanny of my son- Cedrick.

"Ma'am, shall I still come with you? Or will I just stay at home?" I looked up at her when she asked me. I smiled.

"Do you want to come or you want to stay here?" I asked her, ignoring what she asked.

She put her hand on her head. It has been a long time, that she wanted to go to Hacienda Villaurel.

"Come with us, I know you want it too. Don't be embarrassed," I said.

"Ma'am? Really?" she consulted in surprise.

I just shook my head while smiling. "Do you want me to take ut back?"

"No, Ma'am. I'm coming." She said then quickly left the twin's room.

I held the twin with my hand. We left their room and went to the living room, where Cedrick was waiting for us.

"I'm so lucky to have a beautiful wife and adorable kids." he greeted with a grin.

"Is that a compliment or other than that?" I pleaded.

"It's a compliment, sweetie." He answered immediately and pinched my waist. I shook my head because of his idiosyncrasy.

"Are we leaving? Grandma and Grandpa are waiting for us!" Cedrena frowned.

Cedrick and I looked at her in awe. She pouts then crosses her two arms above her chest. We laughed because of her reaction.

I bent down and messed up her hair. "Our baby is excited. Sorry for that. Come on."

I pulled the two of them over and followed behind Cedrick to the garage where the car was. But I stopped when I remembered something.

"Nanny Kida! Come on! We're leaving!" I shouted as we left the house.

I heard Kida's footsteps as if running in our direction. "Sorry ma'am, it took me a while to fix the equipment."

I looked at her and I gaped at what she was wearing. Her attire is fashionable today. She dressed like going to the beach.

"Where are you going, Kida? At the beach show or the hacienda? You even beat me for what I was wearing."

"Ma'am? Let me be. It's only for once," she replied while laughing. I just shook my head. She is wearing black sunglasses, high heels, and a floral red dress.

"Hey, let's go! Hop in, so we can leave." I commanded her, as I entered in the black Everest car.

"Aye-aye! Ma'am!"

"IT'S good that you and Cedrick were able to visit in this house. We thought you would never visit again. We already missed this twin," said mommy Federia, as we sat in a chair at the dinner table.

We are already eating lunch.

"If you know, Lola. If Rick hadn't asked earlier, they would not have remembered that we are coming here today," Cedrena reported.

Cedrick and I looked at each other and whirled our heads.

Daddy Federilo and mommy Federia raised an eyebrow. "If it weren't for these two kids, you wouldn't remember that you will visit here," daddy Federilo brought out.

"Nope, Dad. We just really forgot. But it was good that Rick asked a question earlier, so we remembered. It doesn't we already here. If you want, we visit here once a week." Cedrick suggested as if he was not busy at his company.

"You said that Cedrick huh?"

"Yes, Dad. You know me." Then laughter filled the whole house.

"The twins are going to study next month. Do you and your husband have any plans about that?" Mommy Federia began again asking me.

"Ahm, yes. Cedrick and I will send them to a private school." I replied.

"It's a good idea, Federilo and I will be good and blissful for the safety of our grandson and granddaughter," Mommy reacted happily.

"Don't leave the twin," added daddy Federilo.

"Yes, Dad. As you wish for." Cedrick replied.

Cedrick and I were sitting while watching the twins playing in the garden of the mansion.

"I never thought we would have a twin child." Cedrick began. I looked at him and stared intently at his face.

I didn't expect it either." I hold his hand. "Thank you." Then hugged him tightly.

I love my husband Cedrick awfully. I will die when he disappears from my side.

"We are just the same, thank you too and you gave me a child like them." He said.

I smiled and let go of him.

"That's not it. We gave birth to the twin. I love those twins, maybe my world will be destroyed when they disappear from my life." I concluded.

He hugged me from behind and put his chin down. He leans on my shoulder.

"Will, your world be destroyed too if I disappear?" He asked unexpectedly.

"Of course, you and our kids are both important in my life," I replied passionately.

"Thank you, Ena. You are also important in my life. I love you. I love you so much. I can't abide to lose you in my life."

"Don't worry. I will never be lost in your life. I love you so much. I love you so damn much."

Then he kissed me on the lips.
