Under His Pleasure [COMPLETED]

21

Archi and I just arrived at his mansion. He wanted to talk, so did I. Dumeretso kami sa kwarto niya, ni-lock niya naman yung pintuan para walang maka-pasok sa loob. Lumapit ako sa kama at naupo rito, I feel so tired.

"When were you planning to tell me about this!?"

Sumandal ito sa table at mahigpit na humawak sa magkabilang gilid nito. Ramdam ko ang inis nito dahil ngayon niya lang nalaman ang tungkol sa pagbubuntis ko.

"I was about to tell you, I just don't know how. I was scared on how you would react——"

"Astrid you're carrying my child! Do you think I would run away from the two of you?! "

I rolled my eyes. "That's not what I meant. What if you're not ready to have this baby yet? Because I'm not! I don't even know how to raise a kid!"

I'm being so emotional. Andito pa rin yung takot na na what if I wont turn out to be a great mom like my mom Zara? Would this baby hate me?

"Do you think I wasn't having a hard time? I don't even know what to do. I don't know if I'm ready to be a mother and I don't know how to tell you all of this!" Bulway ko pa rito.

Napahinga ng malalim si Archi. I think it was a relief. Dahan dahan itong naglakad patungo sa kinaroroonan ko. He bent his knees in front of me and held my tummy. I still have a flat belly since I'm only on my first month.

"I'm so sorry, love. I didn't know what you were going through. " He said with a low tone.

He lifted his head up to look at me straight with his eyes. I can feel how serious he is right now.

"Love, you're going to be the best mother to our baby. And our baby would love you so much." He said with a serious tone.

Hindi ako nagsalita. Hindi ko alam yung sasabihin ko.

"Wait here." Sabi ni Archi.

Tumayo ito may kinuha sa cabinet niya. Hindi ko makita kung ano yung hinahanap niya. Maya maya, bumalik ito.

"Now that you're pregnant...." Tumigil si Archi at lumuhod sa harapan ko.

"I want you to marry me, Astrid."

Nanlaki yung mata ko nang bigla niyang binuksan yung box ng harry winston! It's an emerald cut diamond ring worth $65 million!

"I know this is not the best proposal but I want to marry you as soon as possible, Astrid. I'm not gonna let you give birth knowing that I haven't married you yet."

"A-Archival——"

"Please, I really want you to marry me. I'll do anything for you and our baby."

Napalunok naman ako. I think we're rushing too much. Archi and I just started dating, what will happen if the media finds out I'm pregnant and I'm getting married? Everything is just too much for me to think about.

"I want you too, Archival. But I don't want to rush things." I said.

"Look, my parents doesn't know about my pregnancy. I don't want anyone to know about this except for the two of us...."

I took a deep breath and I held his hands. I just want to keep things private between the two of us. For now, Archi is the only person I trust.

"I just want to be private with this pregnancy. After I give birth, maybe then we could talk about getting married. For now, the only thing I want to focus on is how to be a parent." Seryoso kong sabi.
