''Are you sure about your decision? '' Eren asked me again for the nth time about telling my parents about the incidents at the grocery store.

I sighed and looked at him. ''Eren... I already told you that I wouldn't do it; maybe someday, but now, as long as I am pregnant, I can't have another revelation that would create stress for me that could affect my baby and

''Our baby'' correction niya pa.

''Our baby'' ulit ko an pasang-ayon at baka tarayan niya ako mamaya.

After saying that, he smiled at me, like he was satisfied with what I said. I rolled my eyes. Silly man.

''Alright, we should finish cooking'' sabi niya pa at minasa ulit ang dough.

Tumaas ng konti ang kilay ko nang mapansin na mukhang hindi niya na ako pipilitin. Nameywang ako at humarap ng ayos sa kanya. Namamagitan ang counter isle sa aming dalawa.

''Hindi ka na mamimilit? '' tanong ko.

He stopped kneading and looked at me. Smiling. Kahapon pa 'to ngiti ng ngiti, may sira na talaga ata to sa ulo.

''No. Your decision will be followed; besides, it's your family to talk to; you get to decide about that. I mean, I can also give you advice about that, but I agree with your decision. Our baby would be the priority in every decision we made. Thank you, Maria. Thank you for thinking about our daughter.'' he sincerely said while his eyes were glistening with so much appreciation and love.

I smiled softly, giving him my best smile. ''Of course, our daughter is the princess''

''And the first born'' habol niya pa.

I laughed a little bit, and he chuckled too.

''Sige na, tapusin na natin to baka maabotan pa tayo ng hapon'' aniko.

We continue cooking para hindi kami abutin ng hapon at baka uwian na kami ng mga team niya makapunta sa site nila. The site they were working at was the hospital my father planned to build for the people in our city. My father may have been hard on me, but he was a good man and a good politician who didn't have any intention of stealing the public's money. Para lang siya mga normal na tao. Lumalaban ng pantay sa buhay.

Natapos kaming mag luto, ala una ng hapon at pagod na pagod kaming dalawa. Umidlip muna kami lalo na ako at pagka gising ay naghanda sa pag alis.

I was fixing my seat belt ng pumasok sa kotse si Eren. He was the one who put the food in the backseat. Nang makasakay na siya ay mukhang napansin niya ata ang pag-aayos ko ng seat belt.

''Hindi ba naiipit si Baby?'' tanong niya sa akin.

I chuckled, still fixing the seat belt. ''Of course not diba, baby?'' I touched my stomach and then looked at Eren, who still looked bothered by the seat belt.

''Hindi nga kasi, promise''

''Fine, I'll drive now'' he said, looking like I had convinced him but only half.

Eren is notoriously difficult to persuade when it comes to the baby.

I sighed heavily.

''You okay?''

I looked at him, and he was staring at the road while glancing at me.

I nodded. ''Yeah, okay lang. I'm just thinking of you, so being OA''

I saw him pout. ''Am I? I want the best for the both of you'' he said.

I smiled and just looked at him. His side profile was perfectly carved. He has a very soft face, sa lahat ng member ng Billionaires' Club, na kilala ko, siya ang may pinaka soft features. He has the nose of most Korean men and has thick eyebrows and grey eyes. But despite his soft features, he still has a very strong feature, despite how soft it was. His face is also the second most playful face of the Billionaires' Club, una kasi si Kuya Alton.
