Can't Fall in Love Again

Chapter 48

Fast forward (8 months later)

JHOANA

"One last push" doctor

I SCREAMED out loud to push my baby out

"Waaaahhh waaahhh" baby cries

Giving birth is very exhausting and painful, but the moment I hear my daughter's voice, it feels so good. For the nine months I carried her, it was all worth it. I feel so light.

"She is so beautiful, Jho" Nico habang nakatingin siya sa anak kong linagay ni doc dito sa tabi ng head ko

"I love you, anak..... Thank you, Nico"

Nico gently rubbed his hand on my head

At the hospital room

"Anak, mukang dedede na ulit ang apo ko hehe" mama Lovel

I chuckled "akin na ma"

My daughter's name is Chloe Kaye Maraguinot

Habang tinititigan ko ang anak kong dumedede ay napapaluha ako

"Anak, did you know that you remind me of your dad?" sabi ko habang hinahaplos ang ulo niya

"You look very similar. I love you"

Weeks later

NICO

At Jho's family's house (living room)

Magkatabi kaming nakaupo ni Jho dito sa couch habang karga karga niya ang Chloe na tulog hehe

"Ate, kuya, byeee bantayan niyo ang baby Chloe natinnnn" Jaja

"Ingat Ja, update us kung nakarating kana"

"Okaaay" Jaja

"Mag-iingat kayo sa pupuntahan niyo, Ja" Jho

Aalis kasi si Jaja kasama mga friends niya

"Oo ate, bye bye to my favorite pamangkin. Miss na kita agad huhu" Jaja at lumapit kay Chloe para halikan ito

"Hmmm napaka cute, parang yung tatay ooops" Jaja added before siya umalis

Nang makaalis si Jaja ay wala nang tao dito sa bahay kundi kaming tatlo nina Jho at yung isang kasambahay nila

"Jho? Ilagay kaya muna natin si Chloe sa crib? Baka mangalay ka"

Umiling si Jho "dito lang sa'kin ang anak ko"

"Tiwala lang, Jho. Chloe will be fine"

Chloe was born with asthma, which caused a weak immune system. Kaya grabe nalang mag-alaga si Jho sa anak niya

"Kasalanan ko lahat 'to eh. Hindi ko siya naalagan nung pinagbubuntis ko siya" Jho at naluha na ito

Niyakap ko siya ng patagilid at pinatong ang ulo niya sa chest ko

"Wala kang kasalanan, ok. You're the best mom, Jho. Nandito naman ako para alagaan kayo"

Ok na kami ni Jho, no more issues from the past. Her family accepted me too and vice versa

Mabilis na lumipas ang araw hanggang sa nakauwi na sila tito and tita galing business matters. Si Jaja naman ay bukas na makakauwi

Dinner time
