Three Hearts

Chapter19

“What are you two doing?”- I ask when I saw the twins being busy on their laptops like they are busy on stuff and maybe I could help them

“Ahm. We are making a short video clip for Mom’s birthday, we are compiling some of her pictures”- Avel said and take a glance on my side and smiled

“Pa, let me borrow your phone”- Yui said to me and just took my phone, at first I really don’t mind because it was locked and no one knows my pin lock and it can open also with my fingerprint

“Yes”- Avel said and connected it in his laptop

“How did…?”- I can’t even process my question to ask them how they can open my phone without my fingerprint or my pin lock without asking me

“We put our own fingerprint in your phone a long time ago”- Yui said like it was nothing

“How can you manage to do that without my knowledge?”- I ask a little amuse and annoyed

“You have nothing to worry Papa we won’t tell anything to Mom”- She said to me and after a few minutes they return it

“Why don’t you just write your usual letters for your Mom, I mean is it really what you did for her since the day she become your legal parent right?”- I ask them.

Actually it was already two years ago when Aella found them in a war zone, both of their parents died in war. They almost died as well but Aella found them at the right moment she was badly injured trying her best not those kids to have any scratch.

After that war she makes sure to apply those kids in her care so she become their foster parents for almost a year and actually she did everything so that on that same year she could fully adopt the kids and become their Mom in all legal way possible. The kids love her so much that is what I saw every time I saw them, the kids even cried when she was injured.

I still remember that day when she finally got the document she was jumping since the moment she went outside the court. It was quite funny actually, but of course priceless for me to see, she hugged anyone that passes her way and even jump on just to hug me and kiss me on the cheek.

Of course she was not the only one who feels really great to have the kids around, when she went home, she cried from what she saw. A cute little poster made by the two kids and every year she receives a little something made by them as well, just like a flower or a letter sometimes a little key chain that I don’t know how can they make that and I guess this year they made this clip for her.

“It doesn’t even finish Papa and you are already smiling”- Avel said to me, I don’t why but I just smiled as a reply to him

“Well that’s the power of being in love, you see brother he even have the folder containing all Mom’s picture that I haven’t seen before”- Yui said like she was already in love or being able to feel in love at the young age

“Yui you talk to me like you know exactly what I feel, tell me honestly. At that young age of yours have you been in love or are you in love?”- I ask her that but she didn’t flinch as I was expecting her she just look at me like was insane for asking her

“I’ve read many books about love, watched many movies and videos that even though it’s not love story love is still involved. I know how people reacts when they are in love besides I am seven years old being in love is still too young for my heart to handle”- She simply said while typing something to her laptop and gave the printed copy to her brother.

“It’s done”- Avel said after saving the whole video in one flash drive and put it directly to his luggage

“Can I even see it?”- I ask them and Avel just shake his head

“Nope, just wait and watch it together with Mom who knows in that way you might have the chance to tell her what you feel”- Yui said it again

“Please kids. I am really begging you, don’t tell anything to your Mom. I don’t want her to feel awkward or anything bad about me”-I said begging to them because I don’t really want to lose this little hope of mine for her

“We are not doing anything Papa, we just want you to know that we will always have your back”- Yui replied and Avel just nod to me before they kiss my cheek and went to bed they are both excited for the flight this midnight.

I can’t blame them because it’s not their first time on the plane but first time to go to the Philippines and it may be their first time to saw their brother. Aella’s unborn child was buried there I think. All I know is that she was all alone on that day because it was she wanted no one knows where she buried them.
