"The baby is healthy. You just have to maintain the list of vitamins that I will be giving to you later and also, dapat sinasabayan mo rin ng healthy foods and proper diet. I'm going to give you the list of what to eat. Magpunta ka dito every third week of the month for your monthly checkup. Bawal ka ring mastress to avoid deformities of the baby."-sabe ng OB ko habang nakalagay ang ewan-ko-kung-ano para makita ang baby ko sa loob ng tyan ko.
Tumango naman ako habang tinititigan ang baby ko sa TV screen. Picture naman ng picture si Tita Givah.
"Anyway, morning sickness, sudden dizziness, moodswings and so on may occur but that's normal, but you still have to be very careful kase baka hindi mo napapansin na nakakasakit ka na emotionally."-sabe nya then inalis na nya sa tyan ko yung whatever-it-was then she went to her desk.
Napaayos naman na ako ng opo sa bed at hinarap si Doc, Tita did the same.
She wrote something then she gave it to me right after.
The list.
Tita took it then binasa nya ito.
"I'll buy these for you later."-Tita said with a smile.
Napatangon naman ako.
"And kaylangan mo rin ng exercise. Like walking around a little and yogas but not to the point na mai-stress ka na para hindi ka mahirapan sa pagdeliver ng baby mo. You should have brought your husband with you instead of your mom para alam nya kung anong Dos and Don'ts sa pagbubuntis mo, hija. But its OK, iexplain mo nalang sa kanya. Next time bring him here with you."-sabe nya saken.
Husband?
It sounds so weird in my ears.
I just feel like I'm not comfortable with it.
"That would be all for today, thank you for visiting Ms. Odalle and Mrs. Griffit. See you next month."-paalam ng OB ko.
Nginitian lang namin sya and we waved at her before we left.
Nakahawak sa braso ko ang mom ni Gion. I wish she's my mom.
Naiinggit tuloy ako kay Goin.
"Angganda ko narin siguro kase sinabe ng OB mo na mom mo ako."-kinikilig pang sabe ni Tita. Napatawa naman ako.
"You're gorgeous, Tita."-I complemented her. Nagblush naman sya at humagikhik.
---At Griffit's Mansion---
"I can't see it. Where? Where?"-sabe nya habang titig na titig sa kinuhang pics ni Tita.
"Tss... Ayan oh. Yan, yang shape na yan. Yan si baby."-sabe ko sabay turo dun sa isang grey na figure.
"Wha---? Seriously? I don't see a thing!"-confused nyang sabe.
"Basta nanjan yan. Mabubuo rin yan."-natatawa kong kase.
Nakaupo kami ngayon sa sofa ng mansion nila.
Tatango-tango naman sya habang nakatingin sa picture.
"I don't really see a thing."-mahina nyang sabe sa sarili nya. Napangite nalang ako.
"Eeeeeeeek!!! You're so bagay talaga!"-napatingin naman kame sa tumili.
Napatayo naman ako bigla at tumakbo papalapit kay Georgiana.
Ate ni Gion.
"Hey! Don't you run just like that! Baka madapa ka!"-sigaw ni Gion pero hindi ko na sya pinansin.
Napayakap nalang ako sa ate nya na sobrang higpit din ng yakap saken.
"My God! Worth it talaga ang pag-uwi ko from Brazil. OMG! I'm going to be a mommy-tita now! Me! Me!"-may accent nyang tili.
She's very nice to me and we got along when we're together. She's a total opposite of Gion.
After the kamustahan portion, pinapunta na kami sa dining area for lunch.
It really feels great to be with this family.
"I've heard that Henzo's back?! Man, he's always been a pain in the ass. Where's he now, anyway?"-biglang pag-open up ng topic ni Giana.
[A/N: Short for GEORGIANA :D ]
"Ahem, he's with his biological mother now. He said that he wanted to stay with her instead of living with me. Para naman daw makapagbonding sila. His mother's very sick right now, good thing he found his mother."-lolo George answered.
So he's away now.
Napabuntong-hininga naman ako, feeling relieved.
"Oh really? Good for him. I just don't like that psycho bothering Francinne. We all know that he's head over heel with her naman diba. Poor guy."-she said with a shrug sabay subo sa especially served nyang ampalaya salad.
I mean, ewww. How could she eat that?
"Enough with that, Giana. Gion, yung talyer ko malapit sa building ng apartment mo ipapahawak ko sayo this summer. You should start handling a company para experienced kana pag naiturn-over ko na sayo ang parte mo sa kompanya. While at it, you should learn to be a husband too so that you'll learn how to be responsible, and para narin sa magiging apo ko. I know you're too young for this but you're a Griffith! There's nothing a Griffith can't do!"-Lolo said confidently. Humarap naman sya saken kaya napaayos ako ng upo.
"And you Francinne. I'm not allowing you to do part-time jobs again. Its for your own good. We can't afford losing the baby, you hear me?"-maawtoridad nyang sabe saken.
Napatango nalang ako.
Nag-usap pa sila about preparations when the baby come out. Napapangite nalang ako kase feeling ko secure ako sa family na 'to.
"Hey, are you OK?"-pabulong nyang sabe, napalingon naman ako sa kanya then I nod. He smiled back then he held my hand.
"Do you want ice cream?"-tanong nya. I shook my head kaya napatitig nalang sya saken. May naalala naman ako.
"Dun sa kaharap ng gate nyo, diba may mangga dun? Pwede bang yun nalang?"-napaayos naman sya ng upo habang magkasalubong ang kilay nya.
"Ahh--- OK, I'll ask mang Ramil to get us some."-sabe naman nya.
"No. Gusto ko tayong dalawa yung kukuha. Tara na, feeling ko sasabog na ang utak ko kakaisip sa manggang yun."-sabe ko, my mouth watered upon remembering it again. God, naalala ko pa last year na nagsuka ako dahil sa sobrang asim nung binigyan ako ni Gion ng isang slice.
"What do you mean tayo? I can't climb that tree. Its too---"-
"Sino bang may sabe sayo na aakyatin mo? Babatuhin natin."-I said, cutting him off then I winked at him. Napablink lang sya... Aish, loading...
