After days of being married to Steve, he came back to his work. Hindi dahil gusto niya, kun'di ay dahil kailangan niya. He needs to go to his work no matter what happened. May mga kasama naman ako sa bahay kaya medyo panatag siyang iwan ako rito at pumasok sa trabaho niya. I really don't understand why he was so protective sometimes. He was even more sensitive than I am. When it comes to foods. he will search about the proteins from them before letting me eat them. But I let him do what he wants since that is how he can be comfortable and be calm.

Honestly, I'm waiting to be sensitive because that's how normally pregnancy affects women. I never want to be one, but now that I'm not while I'm pregnant is weird. My OB-GYN said that it's normal, but I'm still not convinced. Not that I really want to be one, but it really weirded me out.

I was reading a book on our terrace when someone rang our doorbell. One of the housemaids immediately went there and opened the door, which was in front of me, making me see who rang the doorbell. I smile showed on my lips when I recognized them. It was Stella in her pink halter neckline cropped top matched with her white pleated skirt with Ivan in his black hoodie and denim shorts. They were carrying some boxes of pizza and donuts.

They looked cute together. I heard that they are already together. I was really happy for them since both of them were obviously liked each other ever since I met them. Honestly, I was really surprised when I found out that they got their own partners before, but it's okay now since they're already together. I hope they last long since both of them risk their friendship for their relationship now. I root for them. They are made for each other. I'm sure of it.

"Ate Laura!" Stella yelled as she ran towards me. She looked so excited as she gave me a light hug, obviously trying to be gentle because of my condition. "Oh, my goodness, gracious! Hindi halatang pregnant ka, Ate! OMG!"

"Lala, parang tanga," Ivan winced, watching his girlfriend being amused at my appearance despite my condition. "Parang pa ba? Parang hindi na, e."

"Ivan, putang ina mo." Stella cursed and rolled her eyes.

I invited them inside the house since it's getting hot outside. The housemaids served us some juice and didn't bother to serve some food since they already brought their own. Stella was talking with me the whole time while Ivan was just listening and sometimes commenting. I could say that Stella really likes me because she was too eager to make me talk to her when she noticed that I'm not that nosy. Honestly, she was the loudest amongst us, making Ivan covering her mouth sometimes. It's quite fun watching them together.

Bagay talaga sila para sa isa't isa.

"You're quite famous now, Stella. Even you, Ivan. I've always seen you on social media being talked about how perfect you two are together. Should I ask for some autograph now before you two became more popular?" I joked, making Stella blushed and making Ivan scoffed.

"Ate, idol mo pala kami. Sana, sinabi mo agad. Willing naman akong magpa-picture kasama ka." Ivan jokingly said while taking his phone from his pocket. "Lala, ikaw ang kumuha ng picture namin ng fan ko."
