CHAPTER SIX
CURRENT AND STORM
Their class will hold a Class Reunion next year, as former Class President and SGO President, Menin is in charge of organizing the event. They held a conference of officials last week about the impending reunion, and some of them have been assigned to various events, so it is up to her to distribute invites to their fellow school alumni. However, she did not know the exact ex-boyfriend's whereabouts, nor did she know if he would attend the aforementioned party. She was thinking about what to put in the invitation envelope, and since she didn't know what Ronn's rank in the navy was, she decided to just send the invitation to his parents, and they would be the ones to send it to Ronn, possibly because she didn't want her husband to find out if she sent it directly to her ex-boyfriend.
"Hello Hon, a letter from Dad arrived, the delivery time of your letter is somewhat late," his wife greeted him with a kiss and an embrace. "It'll be more than a month before it arrives, because it has to travel by sea, which takes time," the wife remarked. Ronn had just returned from the Base when his wife delivered him the telegram from them; he was the new designated Commanding Officer of their Base where he was stationed, and his Aunt Fely's husband was their Fleet Admiral and planned to retire the next year. He is not concerned about the letter, which indicates that no one in their family is ill or in distress.
"Thank you, my darling Princess," he still called his wife, even if she didn't want to be called that previously, and she was always captivated by her husband's endearment. "It takes a while since the passing fish are still reading," he joked to his wife.
"Crazy!" said the princess in response to her husband's simple jest. "When your children hear you, they will undoubtedly remark, 'Daddy's kill joy,'" the princess smiled at her husband.
"Kill joy, but their mother is quite amused," Ronn responded, smiling.
"Eh...however, your joke is extremely corny, so I laughed," the princess smiled back. They had to stop laughing because the kids were approaching closer.
"Daddy!" the twins Eniego and Naiana exclaimed almost simultaneously, hugging and kissing their father.
"How are my beautiful princess and handsome prince?" greets and kisses are also exchanged between the twins.
"We're great, Daddy; we miss you terribly!" Niana answered.
"Yes, we miss you, Daddy," Eniego agreed.
"I miss you, too!" he exclaimed to the children.
"How about Mommy?" Do you miss our mom? Niana carved this.
"Hhmmmmnnn," he chuckled.
"Daddy! "You must always miss mommy, she is your wife and out lovely mommy," Eniego laughed, his eyes growing larger. The couple simply laughs, certain that they would not stop until he agrees with the two.
"Of course, I'll always miss and adore your mama, and my angels," he said, beaming at the two as they carried the weight inside. This is the situation every time he returns home, even if he has just been absent for a week, except now he hasn't been home for over three weeks because he first arranged the new duty assigned to him. His former CO was also promoted to Rear Admiral, and he filled the vacant job because he was promoted with him; his wife doesn't know yet; he will tell her later, after they both go to bed.
Their two eldest children were constantly in the library with the Datu, who was also reading at the time. Their twins, even the two youngest, enjoy studying, but they are always looking forward to seeing their father, so when they hear he is coming, they will make sure to greet him first. When they are bored inside, they enjoy playing chess, table tennis, or badminton. They finish the room for the games that the kids enjoy, and they also have a dart and basketball court where they can bond with his eldest. Both are competitive, and neither wants to lose to the other, especially Rohan. They are also both school winners in academic and athletic competitions, and they have always won the tournaments in which they compete.
He lowered the twins who were still reciting the story of what they did at home while he was away, taking turns between the two in the story that they decided on as a couple, when they arrived at their chamber. It's a lot less exhausting when you return home with your kids being so noisy and laughing. Eniego removed his shoes, while Naiana removed his jacket, making his wife smile at what the kids were doing. She prepared a dress for her husband and then asked their assistance to prepare a snack because he had just arrived home at nine o'clock, he had left the Base before seven o'clock, he went through the market, which took a while because he bought fruits, and he had just arrived home at nine o'clock, he never forgot the dried fish because it was his wife's favorite.
He and his wife were relaxing in the bedroom after having a snack when he took the letter and read it as his wife hugged him. The Class Reunion details were given there; he was stunned after reading the invitation; he had no idea what was tormenting his head. Is he ready to see his ex-girlfriend? He digs into his chest, wondering why there is still bitterness in his heart. Is it because he has forgiven the girl that there is no longer any anger in his heart? Several thoughts raced through his mind, and he never heard his wife's inquiry again. His life is an open book to his wife, thus he got aloof with women. His wife kissed him and then hugged him, making her realize that whatever he did, she would always support him.
"Hon, you must face and forget your failures in life in order to get the peace you seek," his wife told him. "You can't move on if you have the grief and resentment in your heart," the wife added. "You have to attend that celebration because you are a member of that school and they are one of the ones that taught and sculpted you to be a decent person and to have what you have now." "It's not just the nice things in life that make a person lean to be strong and successful in life; the pains and sufferings he went through also play a vital role in us," the princess remarked.
"I am extremely glad that you have been one of the most significant parts of my life; I am grateful that God sent you to me to help me on my journey," Ronn told his wife.
"I am also lucky that you are the one I married and you chose to be the partner of your life, the like of you is a woman's dream to be with forever and I am so lucky that I am that lucky woman, and I have nothing more to ask of the Lord but the good health of our family, that He will guide us in raising our children, and be with you until my last breath," the princess replied passionately to her husband, hugging him tightly and pressing a kiss on the lips which They cuddled and continued the chat about the invitation after a pleasant one-on-one slumber.
