MACKENNA"MACKENNA! SCOUT'S HERE!"
Nakahiga pa ako sa kama at busy sa pag-scroll sa Facebook nang marinig ko ang pag sigaw ni Freya. My heart automatically starts beating fast just by hearing his name.
"Shit!" I muttered to myself before forcing myself to get up.
I quickly checked the time on the wall clock. It's only 7 o'clock. Ang aga pa! Ni hindi pa nga ako nakakapag-toothbrush at suklay ng buhok.
"Come in. Do you want anything to drink? Water? Coffee?" Freya said to Scout. Maliit lang 'tong apartment kaya rinig ko ang usapan nila sa labas. Kaya hindi ko rin masisisi si Freya na makinig sa usapan namin ni Scout kahapon dahil manipis lang 'tong mga pader sa apartment ko.
"Water is fine. Thank you." Scout replied.
It's been ten minutes since Freya yelled that Scout is here, and yet I'm still inside my bedroom. Sobrang ihing-ihi na rin ako, pero 'yung bathroom ay nasa labas at kailangan kong lumabas ng kuwarto ko para makaihi. I feel like my bladder is going to burst any second now.
I have no choice but to change clothes instead and brush my hair so I look more decent. I took a deep breath before slowly opening my bedroom's door. Mula sa puwesto ko ay kitang-kita ko agad si Scout na nakaupo sa couch. He's talking to Freya, and I took that chance to quickly go to the bathroom.
Nakahinga ako nang maluwag pagkatapos kong umihi. And then I brushed my teeth and put a little bit of lip tint on my lips and cheeks so I didn't look as pale.
"Are you ready to see your father again?" I whisper as I caress my tummy. Wala pa rin akong baby bump, so you really can't tell that I'm pregnant, but I still like to caress my tummy.
"Good morning." I said when I finally came out of the bathroom and made my way to the living room, where Freya and Scout were sitting.
Scout is wearing a black shirt that hugs perfectly his muscular arms and chest, khaki pants, and brown cordovan shoes. He looks so... hot.
If only Freya could hear my thoughts right now, I'm sure she'd be ecstatic that I called Scout a hottie.
"Finally you're here! We've been waiting for you." Freya said.
"No, it's okay. Take all the time that you need." Sabi naman ni Scout na nakangiti. Tipid lang din akong ngumiti pabalik sakaniya at saka ako naupo sa tabi ni Freya. Nakita ko rin 'yung nakahandang tubig at left over pizza sa centre table.
"So..." Pagbasag ni Freya sa katahimikan. "What's the plan for today?"
"What plan?" kinunotan ko ng noo si Frey.
"I don't know. Maybe Scout has a plan for you two. You know. A date maybe?" She wiggles her eyebrows at me before shifting her eyes from me to Scout.
"Of course I have a plan! From A to Z," masayang sagot agad ni Scout.
