It could be us // Sandro Marcos (2)

CHAPTER 35

SANDRO's POV.

I was in the middle of an interview when I felt my phone is vibrating so I secretly check it and saw my wife is texting. Bahala na muna si Gov. Matt mag salita dyan dahil replyan ko muna ang asawa ko. I was so worried earlier na di siya nag re-reply sa text to but it turns out she was just sleeping.

Babe<3: "Uwi ka maaga, mag luluto ako for dinner."

Me: "Ohhh... Should I eat you before dinner?" I secretly laugh after sending my reply.

Babe<3: "Sira! Basta umiwa ka ng maaga. I have something to tell you."

Me: "Is it a good or bad news?"

Babe<3: "Maybe. Keep safe always. I'll see you later, babe. Love you."

Me: "What kind of reply is that?"

And she didn't reply after that. I tired my best to focus on the press conference and meetings kahit bothered ako sa kung anong sasabihin niya. We are still waiting for the final results sa elections so we are still monitoring para iwas dayaan. I hope my fellow kababayans will give me a chance to prove my intention in running in this position. I love what I am doing and I will never get tired in serving the people especially here in Ilocos. Kanina pa ako di mapakali sa kinauupuan ko habang nag interview dahil nag iisip ako kung ano ang gustong sabihin ng misis ko. Is it good or bad news? What ever it is, I hope it's not bad.

After the press conference and all the meetings, we decided na umuwi na, ayon may nag papa-picture padin. It's so adorable and makes my heart happy how people are glad to see me. I love taking pictures, video greetings, and seeing their kiligs makes my heart flutter sa tuwa. I went to the van immediately para makauwi na kasi mag didilim na and I'm excited to see my wife.

"I'm home!!!" I shouted when I open the door. I saw my wife na kakalabas ng kwarto while fixing her lovely white sleeveless dress and then she smile so sweetly when she saw me.

"Hey... welcome home, babe!" she went straight to me to give me a peck kiss. "Bihis ka muna before tayo mag dinner." then she went to the kitchen. May something sa smile niya, I wonder why is that. I went to our room to take a bath first before changing clothes. Lumabas na rin ako after maligo at mag bihis. I saw preparing our dinner and she look so happy. Such a perfect wife!

"Upo ka na, babe." she said. Umupo na ako while looking at her serving me. There's something behind her smile.

"Why are you look so happy. Care to share??" tumingin siya agad sa akin and even hindi na siya nakangiti eh her eyes says it all na masaya talaga siya. Hmm...

"Maya after kumain, may surprise ako sayo." oh now she's the one na mag su-surprise na naman. Good thing she's not pale anymore unlike earlier.

"Alright. Let's eat, I'm starving." her cooking skills is so impressive. Yeah I forgot, all around nga pala tung misis ko.

"How was it??"

"The what??"

"The food your eating. Masarap ba?" Oh jeez! Nag space out ako because I was staring at her the whole time. She looks different right now like more beautiful and blooming. Maybe something good siguro ang sasabihin niya.

"Yes, babe. This is good. I love it." she smiled widely after hearing those words. My wife, you're so beautiful.

"Really?? I made it happen. Kain ka pa madami." nilagyan niya pa ako sa plato. Tataba yata ako dahil sa mga luto niya, healthy and masarap ang lahat.

"Ang dami na niyan, babe." pigil ko sa nilagay niya sa plato ko. Bumalik na kami kumain and I'm excited for her surprise. This is exciting! I wonder what would that be??

After our dinner, nilinis muna niya ang table saka umupo sa harap to tell her surprise. She gave me this small box while smiling so widely.

"Before you open the box make sure to prepare yourself first." she said and laugh. Okaay... this must be something amazing.

"Pa thrilling ka, babe."

"I hope you like our gift, Daddy." I was stunned upon hearing those words. What does it mean?

"Our?? Daddy??" she just laugh.

"Just open the box." I slowly open the box and peeking what's inside. It was 2 pregnancy test, the other one is digital and a normal one and both positive. She's pregnant?!?!

"Are you pregnant?!" I ask in shock.

"Yes!" oh Jesus Christ! I'm speechless right now. She's bearing my child! "Okay ka lang??"

"I'm fine. Is this for real??! This is not a prank right??" she nodded while crying. Her happy tears started to fall from her eyes.

"Oh my God! THANK YOU LORD!!!!" tumayo ako to hug her and join her happiest moment in life. This is a good blessing for the both of us. "Kelan mo nalaman??"

"Kanina, after mo tumawag nakita ko yung petsa ngayon kaya nag taka na ako ba't delayed ako isang buwan. Pumunta ako sa drugstore to buy PT and took a test pag-uwi."

"Thank you, babe. Baby!! Daddy is here!!" I hug her tummy and kiss it. "Daddy is excited to see you!"

"Di pa nga malaki ang tummy ko." natatawa nalang siyang hinihimas ang buhok ko.

"We should call Mom and Dad." I grab my phone and video call Mom.

"Yes, Son??" mom said after answering the video call. She's with dad as usual.

"Mom, Dad. We have a good news!" I show them my wife's pregnancy test and saw their priceless reaction.

"Oh my Jesus Christ! Mia are you pregnant??! Oh God!" Mommy can't hide her tears anymore.

"What?! Mia, iha. Are you pregnant??" Daddy interrupted.

"Yes, Dad. Kanina ko lang nalaman." my wife answered.

"This is a big news for us! Congratulations to the both of you!" pumalakpak pa si Dad and Mom is still crying.

"Mom, wag kana umiyak HAHAHAHA..."

"I'm just so happy for both you. Sandro, dati baby kita ngayon may sarili ka ng baby. Congratulations Mia!!" Mom said while wiping her tears.

"Thank you, Mommy. Stop crying na." Mia said. Siya din naman umiiyak. I know my wife is orphan and this is heart warming for her seeing my parents being supportive and loving her.

"We'll celebrate after this chaos, uuwi kami ng Ilocos. See you soon, lovers. Mia, take care of yourself and our grandchild." Dad said. Mas lalo pang naiyak si Mia after what dad said. We said our goodbyes before ending the video call.

"Thank you for this best gift, babe. I've always wanted to have a baby with you. I love you so much." we hugged each other and enjoying this moment. This is one of the happiest days of my life.

"We love you too, Daddy." I smiled after hearing her response. This is life.
