“Do you want me to talk to them Darling to ease your concern? You know that I don’t want you to be like that. I know that it has a big impact on you when you are being bothered on something. I don’t want that it will stressed you again and it leads to triggering your anxiety.” Mateo glare at her while saying it. He know his wife well than others. 

           This problem of others that concerns her will be her problem as well and will do everything just to help them. And it is not that good to her health, yes it will help others but her health was in risk.

“I don’t know Darling. I don’t want them to feel that we are picking our ears in their problem. I just hope that they can open this up to us one of this days because I will not be relieve when they go back in Manila and we don’t know what it is.” Mary deny what Mateo suggest and let out a heavy sigh.

“I assure you Mr. and Mrs. Ramirez that this mall will be finished before the end of the day that you gave us. I think one and a half is enough to finish it all and ready to be open. We are now doing the finishing touch. You can tell us if you are not satisfied on something and we will do what we can to solve it and make it in your likings.” Eng. Santos, the incharge of this project assure them that everything is in the plan. He is one of the famous engineer in town and he accomplished a lot of projects well and now he is running for the mayor position in this city.

“You don’t disappoint us Eng. Santos, we are looking forward to what you are saying. We look around and all seems right in place and we are pleased of how to manage it. Also tell us if the budget is shorting so we can talk about that. You will have a bonus from my son-in-law if you accomplish it well.” Mateo compliment him in doing well. Surely, he will won the election this time because of them also. They support him and lets say that he have the big percentage on winning compare to his competitors.

“Its my pleasure to work for your family and thank you for supporting me in this election. I won’t let you down and you have my side if I win. I will not turn my back to those who help, I promise.” Eng. Santos express his gratitude to them. 

        Mary and Mateo didn’t spend match time in the construction site and visit some of their businesses before going home. They pass by to a drive thru of Jolibee to buy the cravings of their preggy daughter which is fried chicken and fries. They buy a lot for others to have too not just Lyn cause they know that their daughter wouldn’t share if they just buy a bucket of friend chicken and a fries for one person. She eats a lot than before and that’s because she is pregnant.

      After getting their order, they go home cause Lyn is calling them for her chicken and fries. Surely, she is pouting right now while waiting for her cravings. This kind of foods are not healthy for a pregnant women but no one dares to say no to Lyn because its hard to coax her when she got angry. They didn’t dare to do that even Axiel, her own husband because she is very moody in her second trimester. Just a month and they will know the gender of their grandchild.

“Mommy where is my fried chicken and fries?” Lyn immediately run to them when they step in the door of the mansion. She ask it after greeting them and kissing their cheeks like what she always do.

“Don’t run wife, you will slip.” Axiel warn her when she run but she don’t care that much and go to her parents as fast as she could. Thankly, Mateo was able to catch her when she almost fall over because she loss balance.

“Your naughty Lyn. Think of the child inside you. Don’t be so careless just because of the foods. We will give it to you okay.” Mary can’t take her concern and said those words to her. Mary’s tones is mad.  Lyn’s childish side was kicking again that’s why.
