"What the fuck are you talking about?!" Iyon ang unang lumabas sa bibig ko nang makapasok kami muli sa limousine nito. He was just quiet and mad. Hindi ko naman kasalanan na may mga mata ang mga tao eh. He is pissed and I am pissed.
"What I said is the truth." He said and puff a breath.
I rolled my eyes. Anong truth? Hindi naman ako buntis, oa talaga. Thinking back, I did saw him too careful about me doing anything around his palace. Maybe he assumed I am pregnant? Iyon ba? Oa naman nito.
I was about say something when the driver disrupt. Tumingin lamang ako rito at hinayaan itong mag salita.
"A lady is in the palace your highness, requesting for you audience." Wika ng driver dahilan na mangunot ang noo ko. Okay a lady daw. I glanced at Quin whose hand on his bridge of his nose massaging it himself. I waited to gather himself and anticipates for his answer.
"I made myself fucking clear, I don't want any woman other than my wife lingering around my fucking palace." He said angrily.
The driver sighed and uttered the news.
"The woman said she is pregnant with your child. And the woman passes the background, she is seen with your highness 2 months ago." I breath as I closed my eyes. My ears was ringing and my body was weak. I couldn't lift my arms to argue. I don't know what to say.
I opened my eyes and glanced at Quin who's confused. I am confused, scared and thinking. Scared that maybe, Quin ready got that woman pregnant. I only knew him after 2 months ago and before those. I know nothing Quintin Romanov.
I am scared of jumping in conclusion. I might as well see that woman myself.
"Nonsense, I am giddy for safety." He roared I just sighed and quiet myself. He tried to touch my hand as I refused to be touch. I would let him if things clears up.
The moment we stopped the aching ride. We saw the servants welcomed us. As I, get out my self from the limo and mindlessly let my self guide to it self to the main hindrance of the night. The woman, a pregnant woman.
I found her in the living room. Sitting. She stood up as she acknowledge my presence. I look at her and waited for Quin to appear and he said. Next thing did shocked me.
"Terra, what are you doing here?" Great, he knew her name. He uttered her name.
I can feel my heart ache as I grasp for air. My breaths were unsteady. I was thinking for the worst. I look the both of them. They look good, perfect ever better. I feel cornered and silenced. How I wished he didn't know the woman, how I wished he failed to recognized her face, her name. How I wished he failed to acknowledge the woman. My throat bubbled and it hurts. It was urging me to cry, sob and die out my self.
I forced to smile and breath heavily but it repeated for me. Like ng breaths were my words. I don't know why I felt this way. My instincts is a warning. I should never doubt my instincts and my instincts is telling me to cry and leave because something shit happened between the two of them.
"It's been a long time Señor, I... I am here to confess." She said making herself vulnerable in my eyes. She looks genuine kind woman that would never double cross a decent man without a valid reasons. That how she looks. That's why I am more triggered the fact she looks like a innocent woman who is a victim in this situation.
"What? That you are pregnant?" Quin mindlessly dropped the bomb making me wait for her answer. The woman look at him in hesitation and glanced at me before kneeling and crying on the floor as if it was a sin.
"Yes! I'm sorry. I couldn't keep it in myself. I had to do something to have my baby a father. I cannot bear the guilt of having my child fatherless. I am sorry to barge into your happy life señor... I-I, know I shouldn't I know you are married but please... take care of you child."
Oh my fucking god.
A tear drop from my cheeks as my eyes settled on the crying mess woman kneeling on Quin whose know emotionless. I sob hard making Quin look at me and finally emotions washed his face. I look at his eyes.
Worry. Guilt. Confusion.
Without a word I took my walk out of the room. I can feel Quin's presence behind my back. He came rushing and gripped my wrist and caught it to make me face him. With my silent cry I look at him in fury.
"It's not..." he was catching his breath as I look at him. I still love him though but I think he needs to fix this. If ever that woman is being real, I wouldn't let her child to grow up fatherless. The void waking up from the world without a father is like an abyss. I couldn't bear the guilt of having Quin while a child suffers for out happiness.
Love is not selfish.
"Please... Let me go. I don't want to argue with you." Nanghihina na wika ko ngunit napuno ng tiim ang mata ni Quin like he was threatened with my behavior. He was threatened that he might lose me.
"I swear the fuck of my fucking life moya zhena, I am not the father of that child." He said making me look at him with my eyes full of tears. Kahit naman siya ang tatay o hindi, hindi naman iyon ang mahalaga. What matters is the child.
But still I had to know...
"Did you fuck the woman?" I whispered under my breath making Quin stopped and loosen his hold in my wrist. I know he hear it.
"W-What? I was drunk, I don't know. I am confused love. But I think that child is not my child." He said.
I got my answer. More clearer even.
He was fucking drunk. Goddamn. Mas malaki ang posibilidad na siya ang ama dahil hindi niya alam ang nangyari. And he said it himself that he did fuck the woman.
I gathered myself as I breath.
"I will leave."
That left him dumbfounded and breathing hitched, "w-what? No! Absolutely not!"
I finally sob a harsh cry and look at his eyes with unbelievable emptiness.
"Fix yourself, you will have your family. And I will leave, might as well never come back." I said as he shakes his head no. His neck were red in madness I saw flares of anger in his eyes.
Why I can't pick anything to understand him? Am I irrational? Bakit? Hindi ko ito maintindihan? Bakit?
"You will stay at this goddamn palace Daphne, not any word of opposition!" He said in madness I just smiled.
"I will not stay! I will go the fuck to my fucking home! Uuwi ako sa pinas, bahala ka sa b-buhay mo. Tangina mo, bakit nag kati ng titi mo ba't hindi kapa nag hintay sa'kin na dumating sa buhay mo?! Tangina m-mo-" as much I want to shout in his fucking face I found myself gasping in air.
Nanginginig ang katawan ko ng mapansing pulang mansa sa gitnang bahagi ko. I look at Quin horror as he shout in profanities.
"Oh fuck love!" He shouted as he carried me out. I saw the woman in the living room as she saw us.
I was confused and in pain. My stomach fucking hurts. I wailed in pain as I cried in Quin's arms.
What the fuck is happening?
