"Funny Matt! Super funny!" Sabi ko.

"Uy, wag ka magalit" sabi ni Matthew.

"Im not" sabi ko at inikutan sya ng mata.

Nagkainan ang lahat, nagtatawanan at nag k-kwentuhan andito din yung mga girlfriends ng pinsan ko, I hope one day madala ko si David sa ganitong mga family bondings, lalo na't sya ang tatay ng magiging anak ko.

Hindi nag s-sink in sakin na there's a life inside me, there's a human inside me!

Bukas magkikita kami ni David, pinapupunta nya ako sa apartment nya, Im scared.

Paano kung ayaw nya?

I shrugged off my thoughts when ate Cara called me.

"Gi!" Tawag nya pa ulit.

"Oh!? Ate?" Tanong ko.

"Girls night out tayo! Tayo nila Jamie!" Aya saakin ni ate Cara.

"I can't, I have work ate eh, hindi kaya ng sched ko pati hindi ako nag ii-inom these past few months" pagdadahilan ko.

"Ohh ok, sure ka ha? Basta let us know baka magbago pa yang sched mo at makasama ka" sabi ni ate Cara.

Matthew's point of view

Nag excuse ako sakanila para pumunta sa cr, I washed my hands when I saw a positive pregnancy test sa tabi ng soap dispenser.

I took the pt and went out,

"So? Who's expecting?" Tanong ko at ipinakita sakanila ang positive na pregnancy test.

Gia's point of view

Nanlamig ang dugo ko, bakit nga ba hindi ko naitago yung pregnancy test.

Natahimik ang lahat, nakatingin saakin si mama Meldy, sht sana naman hindi nya halata.

"Mavs sayo to!?" Tanong ni Matthew.

Tumingin naman sakin si Mavs.

"O-oo! That's mine!" Sabi nya at tumayo.

"What!?" Sigaw ni kuya Alfy.

"Pregnant ka!?" Tanong ni kuya Luis.

Umingay naman sila, at nagsimula I congratulate si Mavs, kita oo ang saya ni kuya Alfy.

Na w-wow mali ka kuya, ang saya saya mo ha.

"May bago pala tayong apo eh!" Sabi ni daddy at nagtawanan ang lahat.

Ok, this has to stop. Bakit ginawa ni Mavs yun? Sasabihin ko naman na eh.

"WAIT!" Sigaw ko.

Nagtinginan sila saakin.

Fast forward

"Kailan pa Gia? Kailan pa yang dinadala mo?" Tanong ni mommy.

"I just found out mommy" sabi ko at naka tungo.

"Hindi ko alam ang magiging reaction ng daddy mo sa sinabi mo sakin ngayon, lalo na na isang lalaki lang ang alam kong maaring tatay ng dinadala mo" sabi ni mommy.

"Kaya ako natatakot mommy, pano kung hindi matanggap ni daddy?" I asked.

"You have to accept, I understand where your dad is coming but I understand you more, I know how you feel" sabi nya saakin.

"Please, help me ma, hindi ko kaya" sabi ko habang paiyak na.

"Lagi akong andito para sayo, I already loss you and I can't loose you again" sabi saakin ni mommy.

"Ma, natatakot ako kay daddy" sabi ko at umiiyak na.

"Shh, don't cry, andito ako I'll protect you" sabi saakin ni mommy as she held my face.

I hugged her tight, siguro if she isn't my mom hindi ko kayang ang lahat ng nangyayari sakin.

Fast forward

Pumasok ako sa kwarto nila mommy, I was holding the pregnancy test.

"Daddy?" I called.

"Oh? Come here" sabi nito habang nagbabasa ng libro.

Tumabi ako sakanya at ibinigay ang pregnancy test.

"I already knew, hindi ko kayang magalit sayo but sa lalaking nakabuntis sayo. Hindi ko maipapangako, napaka daming ibang lalaki Gianna! Bakit ayun pa!? Ano nalang sasabihan ng mga kamag anak natin? Na ikakasal ka sa isang anti marcos at nag hatol sakin ng maling paratang!? Hindi mo pinag isipan ng maayos ang pinapasok mo! Nasa tamang edad kana! Hindi ko isusumbat sayo kung pinipili mo nang mag asawa! Pero sana pinagisipan mo muna" galit na sabi saakin ni daddy.

"Daddy may paninindigan sya! Paninindigan sa sarili nya at sa bayan, at nire-respeto ko yun, mahal ko si David dad, sana maintindihan mo yun, sana kilalanin mo muna sya at makita mo kung anong nakita ko sakanya" sabi ko habang nakaluhod sa harapan nya.

"Papuntahin si David dito, tommorow afternoon I want him infront of me" sabi ni daddy.

He hugged me tight.

Next day

I gave David the pregnancy test.

"You're pregnant?" He nervously asked.

I nodded.

He stood up and hugged me tight, I placed my head into his chest.

"What do you feel?" I asked while tearing up.

"I feel happy, masayang masaya ako, you? Is this ok with you? Im sorry. Alam kong we never would have imagine this to happen this early" he told me.

"Don't say sorry, because this is the best gift you've ever given to me, to us. And a new life, means a new beginning for us. Mahal na mahal kita David" I said I I cupped his face.

"And I love you too, sobra sobra I can't imagine doing life someone who isn't you, I promise to take care of you, and our baby, I'll give my best to be the best father to our baby and partner to you" he said as he hugged me tight.

I cried in his embrace.

"Love, gusto ka makausap ni daddy" I said.

"Kahit hindi mo sabihin, haharapin ko ang daddy mo" sabi nya.

I chuckled.

Moments later.
Greggy's point of view

"So you're here" dominante kong sabi kay David na nakatayo ngayon sa harapan ko.

Sinamahan naman muna ni Irene si Gia sa bedroom para magpahinga.

"Good afternoon sir" he politely said.

"Good afternoon" I told back.

"Matagal ko na po kayong gustong kausapin mr. Araneta, noon palang I wanted to pursue your daughter. Kaya po mas una kong naka usap si mrs. Irene, gusto ko rin po kayo sanang bisitahin nung nalaman ko na na-hospital kayo, kaso naisip ko po na it's not a good time to talk about your daughter, mahal na mahal ko po si Gia mr. Araneta. Handa akong pakasalan ang anak nyo sa kahit anong simbahan na meron dyan, We didn't expect to have a baby this early, kung iniisip nyo man po na I trapped your daughter into this, hindi po" sabi nito na mikhang mataas ang kumpiyansa sa mga sinasabi nyang salita.

"As you should, sa ngayon pinag leave ko na muna si Gia sa opisina, she needs to focus at magpahinga, and I know very well na gusto ka nyang kasama, hanggat hindi kayo kasal ng anak ko, dito sya sa puder namin, that's why your only choice is to live with us, kung gusto mong makasama ang nag-ina mo" madiin kong sabi.
