Lots of people from Facebook keeps asking me if do I have already a child and most them, especially my classmates in college, thought that I already have one. Some of my classmates even told me that I am a "worthless Father" for "denying" my children to everyone, for not being proud to them and for not being responsible to be proud of telling everyone that I have a lovely child.
I don't know why they keep asking me about having a child or maybe I already look like a Father in their eyes because I always post in my Facebook's My Day a photo of my nieces. And every time I answer them that I still don't have a child, they refused to believe it. How I wish they are really mine.
Ravisha Zemira Leonor
This is my niece, Ravisha Zemira Leonor. I don't know how her parents came up with her name, but it sounded cool for me. π
She is 1 year and 1 month old now, but believe me, she acts like a mature one and can even talked properly to adults like she is already an adult one. She came in to this world on November 2, 2019, just after the All Saints Day.
Zemira's parents are working far away from her. Regine, Zemira's mother and my cousin, is a school teacher somewhere in Manila while her Father, Ronald, is an OFW in Dubai. But even though she is far from her parents, we know to ourselves that we are giving her lots of love that she deserve.
She is a joyful child but when she is not in the mood, I don't dare to try playing with her. She will just cry and cry not until she can have what she wants.
When it comes to crying, if Zemira started to cry, all of us will start worrying because she has this habit of crying until she will almost lost her breath, I forgot the term but it is dangerous for her. That's why when she needed or wanted something, we immediately gave it to her to avoid the circumstance, this might spoil her but it's better than putting her in danger. We can't afford that.
Marthea Jane Alegre
And this one is Marthea Jane Alegre. Her name was rooted from her Father's name Reymart and her Mother's name Ilonah Jane (I was the one who introduced her about cryptocurrency and now she is also an investor).
Marthea is a 3 year old pretty, jolly, joyful and loud girl but with a little bit of attitude. She was born on April 4, 2017, and she was the first grandchild of the family.
When Marthea's mother, Ilonah, was pregnant of her, her parents were very angry and disappointed because it was still too early, they said, for her to get pregnant even though Ilonah was already 24 years old at that time. π
Marthea is a very spoiled child. Her Father, Reymart, doesn't know when to scold her that's why it always asked anything to him and would cry very loudly if not given. Unlike with her Mother, who is always busy in her work and only went home every night, trying to discipline her but still ended up giving Marthea what she wants.
Marthea and I are a lot closer than I am with Zemira. Because I also love to spoil her and I am also her "shoulder to cry on" when everyone in the family scolded her because of the attitude that she have.
When this two beautiful children plays together, Marthea will always be the one to cry first because she can't afford to hurt Zemira when the two fights. Marthea might have an attitude but Zemira also have it too, and as an older one, Marthea will just give a way for Zemira, because she obviously love her so much.
This photo was taken almost a year ago and it is currently my profile picture in Facebook, the reason, maybe, why people think they are my children.
Every time I saw this photo, for me, this is a symbol of love, care, trust and a bond that no one can ever cut.
For people that thinks that they are my children, I was really hoping that they were mine. They are angels sent from above.
And as a loving Tito/Uncle to them, I will protect and love them with all my heart just like how I love my mother.
