Kabanata 31: Garden
“Lize! May bisita ka” ate Frena called while I'm having time with her baby.
“Maybe that's him already baby, let's go na” kausap ko sa baby kahit hindi naman siya nagr-respond saka ko siya kinarga at sabay kaming lumabas sa kwarto.
“Oh, bihis na bihis kayong dalawa. Saan mo isasama si Dan?” Dan?! Ang baduy.
“Don't worry karga-karga ko naman siya, can I bring her with me” I asked and ate Frena nodded before she turned to look at Xan who's presentably sitting on the couch in front of her.
Hindi ko siya napansin.
“We'll go now ate and please get a room” I reminded before I nodded at Xander at dumiretso na sa labas. I even saw him bid a goodbye to ate Frena na ngiti-ngiti namang tinanguan ni ate Frena.
We waited for him in front of his car at nang makalabas siya ay karga-karga na niya si Layla. Damn this man!
“At sinong nagsabing isama mo si Lay?” tanong ko sa kanya nang makalapit siya, “I don't trust those couple” he answered at napabaling ang tingin kay Fraida na nakangiting nakatingin sa kanya. Ang cutie niya.
“And who told you to bring her also?” pabalik na tanong niya sa akin at taas noo ko naman siyang sinagot, “Same reason as yours” I answered before we both chuckled.
He open the car door for me and Fraida kaya pumasok na ako roon at kinandong ang baby ko saka hinintay siya.
I don't know if Frai already know how to speak pero by her age ay dapat marunong na siya.
He dropped Layla at the backseat before he drive his car.
He's now wearing a simple black trousers at white polo-shirt and what amazed me ay sinuot na niya ang eye glasses niya and God knows how he looks ten times hotter than usual.
“Stop staring woman, you're making me even nervous” ani niya na nagpakunot ng noo ko, “Bakit kaba nininyerbyus ha? May ginagawa kabang kalokohan?” nagtatakang tanong ko sa kanya and he heaved a sigh.
“Don't mind it. Anyway, do you think I should put a baby seat in this car?” He asked out of nowhere na nagpakunot nanaman ng noo ko, “Why? Malaki nanaman si Ada ah?” I uttered because as far as I know, si Ada lang ang kilala kong baby niya.
“Not for Ada but for—what's her name?” he asked and took a glance of Fraida na nakasandal sa may dibdib ko habang sa nasa harap ang tingin.
“Fraida Danielle, that's her name why?” I asked back, “I'll make a baby seat for her” he uttered casually na para bang it's not a big deal. “Don't even bother, she's not your obligation or something” pagpigil ko sa plano niya.
“I want to bring her with us everywhere” ani niya na mas lalong ginusto kong huwag na, “We are not her parents to decide Xan and they shouldn't know about that plan of yours” sagot ko sa kanya na ikinanguso niya.
“Don't get me wrong but I really don't think she'll be okay with her parents” nakangusong ani niya. Sabagay may point siya. Kahit ako hindi makapagtiwala kina ate Frena lalo na sa nasilayan ko kanina. They are very irresponsible.
“Fine, ikaw bahala” ani ko at tumingin na lamang sa labas. It only took us minute until we arrived.
Their house look so modern but old fashioned. It's surroundings is well taken care off. The bushes, flowers, bermuda grasses, and fountain in the middle is very worth of your attention.
“Let's go inside?” Xander offer after we got out from his car. May garage pa nga.
“Sure, I'm a bit nervous” ani ko at hinawakan ng mahigpit si Fraida, “Loosen up, you already met nanay so there's nothing to worry about” ani niya na ikinatango ko na lang.
