After I showered, I arranged the things we were going to bring so that later we would leave. I went to the mirror and combed my hair. While I was busy combing my hair, someone suddenly opened my door, which made me look through the mirror to see who opened it. Suddenly, Hiro, my eldest son, came in.
His face was serious as he looked at me and I nodded my head secretly. I sat properly and faced him.
"What's wrong baby?" I asked him.
He came to me and sat next to me. I looked at him in wonder. I held my breath softly because he rarely spoke.
"Mom," he called me making me look at him.
"Why, baby? Is there a problem?" I asked him again.
He shook his head at my gaze. I signaled him to come to me and he immediately followed. I hugged him tightly and touched both of his cheeks. I smiled at him and kissed him on the forehead.
"Always remember mommy is here, okay? When you have a problem, you can tell me your problem, do you understand, baby?" I said smiling to him.
He smiled a little and nodded so I smiled too and ruffled his hair. I don't think that even at this age, they are older in their thinking.
"By the way? Where's your sister and brothers?" I asked in wonder.
He face-palmed and didn't want to sit next to me while looking at the door.
"1,"
When he started counting my forehead furrowed.
"2,"
I was surprised to look at the door while Hiro was still counting.
"3—"
He didn't finish what he was going to say before Kiro and Jiro ran to me while Mira reluctantly entered and sat next to her older brother Hiro.
"Mom!/Mommy!" Jiro and Kiro said together.
I smiled and hugged them one by one. I felt the two of them hugging me which made me smile secretly.
"Mommy, I'm excited to leave this Island and see what's really out there," said Kiro, my youngest son, smiling.
I looked at Hiro and Mira as they looked at each other and seemed to be talking with their eyes. My forehead was furrowed and they seemed to know what was really out there on this Island. Yes, they haven't seen the outside of the Island where many people are killing, hurting, the chaotic world I grew up in.
Even if I don't want to take them with me when I return, I can't do anything because they are the ones who insist on me taking them with me. I don't want to leave my children here either, I don't want them to be separated from me for so long.
I still hugged the two of them while Mira and Hiro were quiet next to me. I frowned because Mira was not loud and seemed to be in a bad mood.
I breathed a sigh of relief and seemed to know why she was not in the mood right now. I was separated from the hug and looked at them seriously.
"Tell me, sweeties. What have you done to our Princess?" I asked in wonder.
They both looked at each other and giggled so much that my eyes widened.
"Guys?" I called to both of them so they were able to stand up.
I breathed a sigh of relief and turned to look at Mira who was now looking bad on her two siblings. They always have a tendency to tease each other but you would never think that they can protect each other. I think that's just how they show their love for each other because Yanyan, Blue, Red, Black and Dark are the same.
"Mommy, we are not doing anything. I swear," Jiro pleaded.
My two eyes narrowed when he suddenly raised his left hand.
"Bro, it's the other way around. You should raise your right hand, we can be seen," Kiro whispered to his brother, Jiro.
I bit my lip to stop laughing. Jiro quickly lowered his left hand and replaced it with his right hand. I just shook my head because of the awkwardness of the two of them.
I turned to Mira and Hiro who were next to me and called them.
"Mira, Hiro, come here," I said with a smile.
The two of them went in front of me and met the two who were also standing in front of me.
I smiled while looking at the four of them. But that was also replaced by sadness because of the plan I was going to make when the match came.
"Mommy?" Jiro called me in wonder so I turned to look at them immediately.
"Yes, baby?" I said smiling.
"Why are you sad?" Kiro asked.
"What? No. I'm not sad, okay? I'm so happy because I have you without them all. I'm so lucky to have you, babies," I said smiling.
The four of them smiled and I smiled too. Just now I saw them smiling at me again. I formed a round sign that I wanted a hug.
They went to me first and immediately hugged me which made me happy.
"Always remember, babies, mommy loves you so much, okay?" I said smiling while still hugging them.
"We will, mom," they said together.
I smiled bitterly and broke away from the hug. I looked at them one by one. They took pictures of my face and that of grandma and grandpa.
I stood up and fixed myself. I felt their eyes following me but I ignored it.
"So, let's go?" I said smiling.
They nodded at me so I grabbed Mira and Kiro's hand. I also just noticed that we have the same design of clothes and they are all black. If you're not asking, we really love black, all of our things are black as long as black is our favorite color.
I can't stop smiling when I'm in the middle of them. Hiro and Mira were on the other side of me while on the other side were Kiro and Jiro. We went down the stairs together and saw Yanyan and the others waiting for us.
When we got off, Yanya immediately greeted us. He smiled at me so I smiled at him.
"Let's go?" at Yanyan's request.
I nodded weakly and went out. And the children were the first to come out of me together with their uncles dads.
