MY UNEXPECTED WIFE (BossSeries#3)

CHAPTER 42

I WAS smiling like an idiot when I woke up with a breakfast in bed again. Casper was already dressed and ready to work while I was in skintone colored pajama with disheveled hair.

"Do you know that I'm getting used to this?" I giddily asked my husband while he's preparing his attaché case.

"Of course. But don't get overwhelmed, my plan is to make you fluffy," he smirked.

I chuckled. I like his definition of fat as fluffy. Para bang gusto kong totohanin ang plano niya. I can do it for him, if he really want me to.

"It will make me more huggable then. Hindi ka na magsasawa sa yakap ko niyan," I teased him. He laughed and jokingly put his index finger on his lips as if he was thinking.

"Paano ba 'yan, nabuking mo na ako?"

I giggled and he chuckled, another good moment to start my day. And yes, I'm really getting used to this. Unti-unti na talagang natutupad ang mga imahinasyon ko lang noon.

"I think I'll be home late tonight. So I prepared the ingredients and written the steps on how to cook your meal for dinner. It's not good to always eat fast foods, Cassy. I made the procedure easy to understand, so that you'll be able to do it. I already cooked your lunch. It's in the fridge, initin mo nalang mamaya. Eat well, okay?"

My heart palpitated when Casper kissed my forehead and slightly pinched my left cheek before he continued arranging his documents.

Damn it. These gestures of him, I'm still not used to it. And maybe, not ever. I always got butterflies in my stomach everytime he makes unexpected sweet moves to me.

"I got to go. Call me anytime if you want something or there's a problem here, okay?"

"Got it, Sir."

"Tsk. Mag-ingat ka dito."

"You take care too," I smiled.

He nod and said goodbye before going out. It was my cue to start eating the breakfast that my dear husband made for me.

I feel like I'm the luckiest wife in the whole world.

I REALLY feel awful. Kakatapos ko lang kumain ng tanghalian kanina nang bigla nalang akong nahilo at nagsuka. Hindi ko maipaliwanag ang pakiramdam ko ngayon habang nakahiga ng tuwid sa couch.

The first thing that came into my mind after vomiting was the possibility that Casper poisoned me. I really believe it, because there's no other reason why I'm feeling this way.

But it was past an hour already and I'm still alive. So, Casper was not the culprit. Napaiyak pa ako nang kung ano-anu nalang ang pumasok sa isip ko habang nagpapahinga. Nagduda talaga ako sa kanya kasi ang bait at sweet niya sa akin these past few days. Baka patibong niya lang pala iyon at may tinatago pala siyang galit sa akin, na plano niya talaga akong pasayahin tapos bigla nalang patayin.

I cried and laughed at the same time. How dare me think like that? Hindi ko alam kung anong magiging reaksyon ni Casper kapag kwinento ko ito sa kanya mamaya pag-uwi niya.

Speaking of him, should I tell him that I'm not feeling well? Pero sabi niya matatagalan siya ng uwi, siguro ay busy siya ngayon, baka may importanteng meeting o project. I don't want to disturb him.

So, I decided to booked a car and went to a pharmacy. No need to go to hospital, maybe I just need to take some medicine.

"Good afternoon, Ma'am. Ano pong kailangan niyo?" bati sa akin ng pharmacist.

"Ano bang pwedeng gamot ng sakit ng ulo at pagsusuka? I just finished eating my lunch earlier when I suddenly get dizzy and vomit."

"Ngayon lang po ba ito nangyari o ilang beses na?"

"Ngayon lang. I'm a healthy person. Once in a blue moon nga lang ako nilalagnat," I comfortably shared. I appreciate her questioning me before giving me any medicine I just requested. Mas tamang alam niya ang tunay na pakiramdam ko bago ako bigyan ng gamot.

"Tanong ko lang po na possibleng may koneksyon sa dinaramdaman niyo ngayon," she carefully asked and suddenly made me nervous. "May partner po ba kayo?"

"Ha?" I was taken aback. "Ah, yes, I have a husband," kunot-noong sagot ko. I don't get her. Why is this connected to my illness?

"Okay po. Pakihintay lang sandali," she smiled and went to the corner to get my medicine.

Alam niya na ba kung ano ang tamang gamot sa sakit ng ulo ko?

"Ma'am, try niyo lang po ito. Tatlong iba't ibang brand ang gamitin niyo para sigurado. Kung negative po, ito po ang inumin niyong gamot. Pero siguradohin niyo po na una kayong mag-pregnancy test, ah. Kindly follow the instructions correctly nalang po."

W-What?! Pregnancy test? Seriously?!

"Ahh... M-Magkano lahat 'to?"

Lutang ang pakiramdam ko habang nagbabayad ng binigay ng pharmacist. I just can't believe her assumptions. I never think about it but when I heard it now, I just can't neglect the possibility of it!

May nangyari sa amin ni Casper, with no protection. I kind of expected this but... I'm still shock that it really happened!

Nakauwi akong hindi pa rin maipaliwanag ang pakiramdam. My hands were shaking when I went to the bathroom to try the pregancy test. I used up all three brands and I froze when I still saw the same lines.

"I... I expected it. I had high hopes..."

My tears starts streaming down my face. I can't control my emotions right now. Ang sikip ng dibdib ko sa sari-saring emosyon na nararamdaman ko. All I can do is to cry and let it all out.

Nakatulog ako pagkatapos ng mahabang pag-iyak. Gabi na nang magising ako. Agad naman akong nakaramdam ng gutom, kaya dali-dali akong bumangon at pumunta sa kusina para maghanda ng dinner ko. I already checked the list and ingredient's Casper prepared for me kaninang umaga. And it was absolutely a lot easier for me to handle, credits for his help.

After eating, I waited for Casper at the living room. I cannot sleep right now. I need to see him. I need to talk to him.

I decided to tell him all the thoughts I have this day. I can't bear this feeling alone. And I don't care anymore if I will get to the part that he'll know my hidden love for him.

Maybe... It's my time to confess.
