Chapter 20: Lies

When I woke up, I immediately look for my phone and when I found it I scrolled through my messages. Wala pa rin akong reply na nakuha galing kay Thunder. Maybe he's busy?

I tried to call his number but it's not ringing. I sighed; defeated. Memories last night chew me. I am pregnant with Thunder's child. We made love at nagbunga iyon. The sleepiness, dizziness, and sudden cravings; it explains why.

A huge smile painted my face. Nagbunga ang pagmamahalan namin and I am so excited to meet our little one. My smile suddenly faded when negative thoughts invade my mind.

What if he don't want a child? Or a child from me? Paninindigan niya ba or he'll run? I shaked my head. What am I thinking? I'm just overthinking things again. Alam kong hindi nakakabuti 'yun but I just can't stop it.

Before I went to the company, I decided to text Thunder. Napabuga nalang ako ng hangin bago nagtipa ng message para sa kaniya.

Mr. Husband

Hello, baby. Good morning :> Are you busy? I'm kinda worried. Kagabi ko pa hinihintay ang text mo. But maybe you're really busy. I'm going to the company already. I'll meet you in your office instead if I didn't received a response from you.

I drove my car towards his company. When I arrived, they were silent. It's unusual. I glanced at Peach - my workmate at siya rin ang pinakamalapit sa desk ko.

"What's happening?" she looked down before biting her own lips.

"May nangyari kanina dahil dumating si Ms. Alonzo." my forehead creased. Alonzo?

"Alonzo who?"

"Huh? You don't know her? She's a famous model. She's our boss little sweetheart - from what I have heard." kumunot ang noo ko. "Ohh... If you don't know her oh well she's Monica Zane Alonzo, does it ring a bell?" wala sa sariling tumango ako at nag-focus na lamang sa harap ng screen.

Childhood sweetheart? Si Monica? And what is she doing here? Kaya ba hindi sinasagot ni Thunder ni isang tawag or text ko dahil - oh no. Stop, Amora. You're overthinking things again. C'mon! Loosen up! I sighed.

Sumapit ang tanghali at wala akong nareceive na reply kay Thunder kaya napagpasiyahan kong puntahan nalang siya sa office niya. I'm pretty sure his secretary know me since minsan na rin nitong dinala ang pina-utos ko kay Thunder.

I'm pretty sure she's not dumb not to noticed that something is going on with her boss and I, right? Narinig ko ang usapan ng ilan na sobrang bagay daw ni Thunder at Monica.

I know that. They always look good together. A happy couple. I looked down at my stomach. No, Thunder loves me. I can feel that.

Nang makarating ako sa floor ni Thunder ay agad akong hinarang ng secretary niya. Kumunot ang aking noo habang nakatingin sa kaniya. What? Why is she stopping me?

"Uhm excuse me? I need to go inside and talk to Thunder." hindi ito nagsalita at umiling lamang. What's her problem?

"I said I need to go inside so please? Can you step aside?" tumaas ang kilay niya.

"Bobo ka ba, miss? Kung hindi mo alam nasa loob ang girlfriend ni Sir Thunder. Kaya umalis ka nalang, kung may gusto kang sabihin sa kaniya sabihin mo nalang sa'kin. I can rely your message to him." agad na uminit ang ulo ko sa narinig.

"What?! Girlfriend?! Are you dumb too? I am the girlfriend oh no the wife for holy cat sakes." she laughed with sarcasm.

"Marami na ring nagsabi niyan kaya hindi mo'ko mapapaniwala." I rolled my eyes on her and just pushed the door.
