Nasa grocery ako to buy stuff para sa condo. Naubusan na kasi ng mga gamit dun eh. Hindi ako masasamahan ni Storm because he had stuff to do at the office. Blair is still in States and Matthew? He's nowhere, I guess. Hindi siya sumasagot sa mga tawag ko eh. I guess he's busy too like the others.

"Thank you." I thanked the guy pagkatapos niyang iabot sakin ang plastic ng meat na pinakilo ko. I put it in the cart and walked again.

My phone started ringing and I smiled when I saw Matthew calling. I laughed a bit. This little ob. "Hey, what's up?" I asked.

"Bakit ka tumawag?" He asked me in a raspy voice. Guess he just woke up.

"Magpapasama sana ako sa grocery pero wag na lang. I'm almost done nanaman eh." I answered.

"Really? Sure ka?" He asked.

I stopped my cart when I saw Rain. She was deciding what fruits to pick. "Hey, Matt."

"Yeah?"

"I'll call you back. Okay?" I said and ended the phone call.

Lumapit ako kay Rain. Tumikhim ako kaya tumingin siya sakin. She smirked upon seeing me. "Well, if it isn't Sunny. Fancy seeing you here." She said.

I rolled my eyes at her. "Oh please, cut with the bullshit, Rain. I know you badly want to wring my neck." I said.

"I do want to wring the little neck of yours." She said at lumapit siya sakin. Kung sa malayuan parang magkaibigan kami na naguusap lang pero paglapit mo halata mo yung tensyon.

"Too bad you can't do it kasi baka malaman ni Storm. And, I'm pregnant with his baby. Magagalit yun sa'yo." sabi ko and I pouted. Dumilim ang mukha niya.

"Mangaagaw ka. I'm sure hindi talaga yan kay Storm. Malandi ka eh. Baka sa kung kaninong lalaki yan na nakalantari mo sa club or kung saan." sabi nito. My jaw tightened and she raised her chin.

My palm was itching to slap her cheek but I stopped. Hindi dapat ako magpakita ng inis. I calmed myself and I smiled at her. She looked confused. "Oh darling. Kay Storm ito. Hindi ko kailangan iexplain sa'yo kung paano naging kay Storm ito. Hindi ka naman siguro bobo diba? Alangan naman ikwento ko pa sa'yo kung anong nangyari? I know you wouldn't want that." I said and walked past her.

Hindi niya kailangan malaman kung paano ako nabuntis. Ano yun? Parang tanga lang. Nakakahighblood ang babaeng yun.

I took out my phone and texted Matthew to pick me up in the mall. Babayaran ko itong nga pinamili ko then tapos na ako.

"You want something to eat?" I asked Matthew.

"Nah. I'm good." He answered and opened the TV. I was busy doing something in the kitchen.

"Blair is in the States pa. Do you miss her?" I asked Matthew. His forehead creased.

"Nope." He answered popping the p. I laughed habang umiiling. I know he was itching to ask me when Blair is going to be back but I'm not telling him unless he asks me.

The door opened so my eyes flung to the door. "What is he doing here?" Turo turo niya si Matthew who was comfily sitting omin our sofa.

"He helped me with the groceries." I answered. Storm groaned in response and went into the room without greeting Matthew.

They're sometimes buddies, I guess? Pero not all the time. Nagkakasundo sila pag lasing. Ewan ko sa dalawang yun. Magulo.

Matthew continued to watch TV and I finished cooking sinigang for the three of us. Sakto namang lumabas si Storm ng kwarto pagkatapos ko magluto. Umupo ito sa couch na inuupuan ni Matthew pero pareho silang nasa dulo ng sofa. I shook my head.

"Boys." I called them and they turned their heads to look at me. "Set the table." Utos ko.

They both groaned. "Set the table or no food?" I asked. They groaned again before standing up and going to the kitchen. Pumasok naman ako sa kwarto at kumuha ngg damit pagkatapos ay dumiretso sa banyo.

I took a quick shower kasi gutom narin kami ni baby. I got out and I saw the two boys sitting nasa sa may table and patiently waiting for me. "Let's eat." sabi ko.

Umupo ako. Si Storm ay naglagay ng kanin at pagkain sa plato ko. It was quiet the whole meal. No one dared to speak. Well, I was busy eating and the two were busy too so..

"You guys finished?" I asked. They both nodded and stood up. Siguro babalik na sila sa sala para manood.

"Saan kayo pupunta?" I asked with a raised brow.

"Manonood ulit. Why?" Tanong ni Matthew.

"Hep. Kayo ang magliligpit." sabi ko. Sumimangot sila at padabog na lumapit sa lamesa.

I laughed. Boys.
