Chapter 32

"HEY, BABE"

Nilingon ni Devon ang kasintahan na nakayakap sa bewang nya mula sa likod at dinampian ng halik ang labi nito "Hey, you're early"

"I promised, remember?"

Tumango si Devon "Status, Amadeo"

"No civilians was harm, Miss. And we keep one person alive, like what you said"

"Good. Take him to the dungeon and I'll play with him" sabi nya saka kumonekta kay Albert "Al, give me a status"

"No luck, Gem. We're having a hard time finding the last bomb"

Malalim syang bumuntong hininga "Okay. Keep me updated" sabi nya at pinatay ang earpiece saka iyon hinubad

Biglang nagring ang cellphone nya kaya napatingin sya roon at agad iyong sinagot ng makitang si Lourd "Did you find her?"

(Not yet, Miss. But I can feel it we're near)

"Don't give Amadeo a false hope or I'll kick your ass, Lourd" sabi nya

(I won't, Miss. I'll keep you updated)

Pinatay nya ang tawag saka hinarap si Khairro at niyakap ito ng mahigpit. Pinikit nya ang mga mata at binaon ang mukha sa dibdib nito "Khai..."

"Hmmm?"

"I'm hungry" sabi nya at napanguso

"Let's go upstairs then. Manang prepared dinner" sabi nito

"Carry me?"

Ngumiti lang si Khairro at binuhat sya. Nitong mga nakaraang linggo ay mas nagiging clingy si Devon na gustong-gusto nya naman. Madalas kapag nagkikita sila halos ayaw nitong pakawalan sya. At sa loob ng maikling panahon ay dumagdag ang timbang nito

Nang matapos silang maghapunan ay binuhat nya si Devon patungo sa kwarto nito "I'll prepare your bath, babe"

Biglang hinawakan ni Devon ang kamay ni Khairro "Stay, Khai. I need to tell you something" sabi ni Devon at pinahiga si Khairro sa tabi nya

"What is it, babe?" tanong nito

"I'm not feeling well these past few weeks" sabi nya at siniksik ang mukha sa leeg ni Khairro

"Are you sick? I'm taking to you to the hospital"

"I've been throwing up every morning and it's bothering me. Nakakairita kasi kada gigising ako ganun ang nangyayari" sabi nya at kumunot ang noo "You think something is wrong with me?"

"I'll call Justine--"

"Khai.." napatingin si Khairro sa kanya "I think, I'm pregnant"

Natigilan si Khairro "W-what?"

"I said, I think I'm pregnant. My period never missed a date and it should be last week but it didn't come" sabi nya at umupo sa kama ngunit si Khairro ay nanatiling nakahiga at tila hindi pa naabsorb ang sinabi nya

"B-babe..."

Nilingon nya si Khairro "I used pregnancy test... it's positive but I still wanna check if it's true..."

"Oh God... I-i'm a f-father.... I'm a D-dad now..."

Kumunot ang noo nya sa reaksyon ni Khairro at pinigil ang ngiti nang makitang maluha-luha ito saka umupo sa kama. Sinapo ni Khairro ang magkabilang pisngi nya at mariin syang hinalikan "I love you, babe. I love you so much"
