Prologue
Alexandria POV
"Miss A, here are the samples of garments from the suppliers. They are just waiting for the list of orders and they will deliver it ASAP." Maria said. She's my personal assistant since I started my Clothing Business here in London.
"I'll give you the list to your email later so you can forward it to the supplier tomorrow. Is that all?" I asked.
"That's all Miss."
"You may go home Maria, I need to finish my new design for our Summer Collection." she just nodded and went out of my office.
I'm standing in front of the floor to ceiling glass wall of my office, watching the beautiful view of City lights of London. It's been 6years since I left Philippines. 6years since my family disowned me. Since then, I strive hard to achieve my dream, to become a fashion designer. It's not easy but through the help of my best friend I build my own name in the Fashion Industry.
"Thinking about the past?" Napalingon ako sa may bandang pintuan ng marinig kong magsalita mula roon si Loraine, my best friend and my business partner.
"I just can't help it L. I still feel the pain caused by my own father years ago." I told her with my blank expression.
"You need to free yourself from the past A, and you need to take back everything those b*****s stole from you." Loraine said.
"I don't think I can face them right now L."
"You can A, I'm always here for you. By the way I already have found a good location for our boutique in the Philippines, and that is in the the biggest mall in the country. I want you to handle our branch in the Philippines."
"Pero L-" Loraine cuts her off.
"You can Do it A. You're a strong woman, wala kang hindi kinaya." She told me.
"Okey fine." I rolled my eyes on her.
"That's great, I already arranged everything. I got you a pent house in Emerald Hotel and a car. Bring Maria with you and I already hired two nannies for the twins." Excited niyang sabi.
"So you already planned it all along?" Sita ko sa kanya. She just smile at me.
"Let's go home Best friend I'm sure the twins are waiting." Then we go out of my office and drive home.
"Maria, prepare everything you need, we will go to Philippines to check on our branch that we are going to open there." I saw the happiness in her eyes.
"Really Miss A isasama mo ako sa Pilipinas?" She excitedly ask.
"Yes Maria, I will give you one week to spend sometime with your family when we get there." Naiiyak siyang napayakap sa akin.
"Thank you Miss A." Sabi nya.
"Just call me A, you're also my friend not just my assistant. We will fly back to Philippine in two days, so be prepared ok?" I smiled at her.
"Sure Miss - I mean A, I'll go ahead. Need to check the deliveries downstairs." I just nod to dismiss her.
"Twins we will fly to the Philippines after two days." Utos ko sa kambal. They are just 5 years old but they act like an adult, and they're already in primary one at their age.
"Really mom, we can meet our Dad then." Ice said.
"Kuya is right mom, can we meet our Dad?" Tanong naman ni Fire.
"We will see sons. Go now and pack your things." Mabilis naman nilang sinunod ang utos ko.
The next Day, i went to the twins school to get their school credentials. Good thing that they already finished the exam for the 1st quarter kaya makakahabol pa sila exam for 2nd quarter sa Pilipinas.
"Ready na ba lahat ng kailangn mo A?" Loraine asked.
"Yeah, Mamimiss kita L. Are you going to follow us there?"
"Of course A, I'm going to visit you kapag na close ko yung big project natin sa France." Sabi naman niya.
"Don't worry to much A, everything will be fine." She said before she hugs me.
"Thank you for Everything L. The twins are excited to go to Philippines, and they wanted to meet their father." I told Loraine.
"What's your plan now, are you going to look for him?" Tanong niya.
"I want to but I don't know how. I don't even know who he is." Malungkot akong napangiti.
"I'm sure the twins will understand when you explain everything to them. They are smart kids and they love you so much, so don't worry ok?" She exclaimed.
"I hope so L. Are you going to send us to the Airport tomorrow?" I asked Loraine.
"Yes A, I also have a flight going to France tomorrow , I need to meet our new investor for our expansion there." Sabi niya.
After almost 14 hours of flight, we finally arrived in the Philippines.
"Twins just follow mommy ok, Ice look after your twin brother please." Bilin ko kay Ice. Ice is 5 minutes older than Fire, sa kanilang dalawa, si Ice ang mas seryoso at matured. He always takes care of his younger brother.
They both carrying their small bags when suddenly Ice bumped into someone.
"I'm sorry Sir. I didn't mean to bump into you." Ice apologize to the man he bump into.
"It's ok buddy, be careful next time." The man said.
"Thank you sir, I'll go ahead my mom and my twin brother are waiting for me." He wave goodbye to the man and run towards us.
"Maria, we will send you to your house first before we go to our Condo." Inform ko kay maria.
"No need na Miss A, susunduin po ako ng younger brother ko. Saka mukang pagod na din sa mahabang byahe yung kambal." Ani nya.
"Ok then, see you next week. Enjoy your vacation." Paalam ko sa kanya.
"Thank you Miss A. Take care and see you after one week." Paglabas namin ng Airport ay naroon na ang aming sundo.
After almost an hour we arrived at the hotel where we will stay while we are here in the Philippines.
"Twins what you want to eat. I going to order food for Us." Tanong ko sa mga anak ko.
"Mom can we try Jollibee? I've read about it in the internet and it's kinda popular here in the Philippines. I want to try their yum burger and fries mom, and don't forget my sundae." Fire said.
"Sure honey, How about you kuya Ice, what do you want?" Baling ko kay Ice.
"Just order what Fire wants to eat mom, that's fine with me." Sagot naman ni Ice.
"Ok, Jollibee it is." Nagdial na ako sa cellphone ko at nag order ng request nila. Nag add na din ako ng chicken at spaghetti.
Bukas pa dadating ang mga nanny na na hire ni Loraine kaya for now kami lang munang mag iina dito sa pent house.
"You know what mom, that man in the Airport. He looks like Us. We have the same eyes." My son said.
"Are you sure Kuya?" Tanong ni Fire.
"Yes, you look like me and that man also looks like you." Sagot naman ni Ice.
"I'm sorry twins I myself didn't even how your dad looks like. Let's just pray that we will find him someday." My heart breaks into million pieces seeing my sons hoping to meet their father.
Kung sana hindi ako umalis ng basta nalang sa lugar na yon, baka may chance pa na nakilala ko ang ama nila.
