JEMA

"ikaw ba, anong gusto mong I pangalan sa baby boy natin?" Ella asked

We're on our way home galing check up

And we're having a baby boy

Sobrang saya pa ni Ella

Kala mo nanalo sa lotto eh

"Ikaw na kasi mag decide, lablab. You're the one who's carrying him" Sambit niya

I thought of a Good name for our boy

Irylle Jeoffrey

"I like... Irylle Jeoffrey" I smiled

Napa ngiti naman siya at hinawakan ang tiyan ko

"See you after 9 months, baby Irylle Jeoffrey Galanza" Sambit niya

"You forgot the De Jesus, Lablab" I chuckled

Ella smiled

"Right, Irylle Jeoffrey Galanza... De Jesus" She corrected

I smiled and placed my hands on top of her hand

" What do you want ba, mommy?" Ella asked

"Anything... surprise me lablab" I replied

"Hmm, Your mommy wants surprises baby" Ella chuckled

I slapped her arms lightly and sat down

"Masakit ba likod mo?" Ella asked

"Hindi na po. I'm all good na dada, thank you" I replied

Naka higa na ako ngayon

I'm not really feeling well

"Mas better talaga lablab if you stay here sa bed while I'm taking care of you and baby... Maselan yung pregnancy mo" Sambit niya

I nodded

"Wag ka ngang praning! Okay lang kami ni Irylle." I said

"I just want to make sure lang na safe kayo ni baby, lablab. Safety first, right?" Sambit niya

I heaved a sigh at tumango

She's too protective talaga

we heard the doorbell

"Baka sina Jia na yun, They must've brought their advance gift for ryry. I'll be back, okay?" Ella kissed my forehead first

"Sige lang, ells. Idlip nalang muna ako" Sambit ko

"Baby, sleep muna kayo ni mommy ha? babalik din naman si dada nak" She whispered

Kinikilig talaga ako sa pag sabi niya ng anak

She's really treating our ryry as her own son

She smiled at me first bago lumabas

"Ang dami naman ata neto!" Sambit ko

"Yaan mo na, At least may ka away na din si JJ" sagot ni ate Jia

Kaka anak pa lang ni Ate Jia

And ilang months nalang ay lalabas na si Ryry

"Di ako maka relate! Bat yung mga kaibigan ko lord may anak na. Samantalang ako, single lang tapos instant tita ninang pa" maktol ni Kyla

Napa tawa naman kaming tatlo

"Madami akong ka kilala sa spain ky. Gusto mo hanapan kita dun?" Ate Jia said

"Go! sino ba naman ako para tumanggi ng grasya?" Sagot niya

Napa tawa naman kami

After dinner, Umuwi na si Ate Jia at Kuya miguel

Si kyla gustong mag sleep over dito

"Lablab, sa couch nalang ako. Dyan na kayo ni Kyla" Sambit niya

Naka kunot naman ang noo ko

"Wag na, sasakit yung likod mo dun. Dito ka nalang, may matress naman dyan eh. Dito na sa tabi ko si Kyla" Sagot ko

"Eh lablab maginaw yung likod niya. Okay lang naman kung sa sofa ako eh" sambit niya

"Tigas ng ulo, sige dyan ka sa labas ah. Wag ka na papasok dito" sambit ko at isinara ang pinto

ELLA

"kulit mo daw eh. Suyuin mo talaga yun ate Ells. Nagiging dragon pa naman yun" sambit ni Kyla

Napa buntong hininga naman ako

I'll talk to her nalang

I slowly went inside her home

I saw her eyes close

Dahan Dahan akong lumapit sa higaan

"Lablab, tulog ka na?" I whispered

Hindi naman siya kumibo

I Slowly slept beside her

Niyakap ko naman siya

"Mahal na mahal kita, Jema. And I'll never give up on us, and our baby

Morning came and I fell on the bed

"Aw" daing ko

"Sino may sabi sayo na tatabi ka sakin"Sambit niya

Napa buntong hininga ako at umupo sa gilid ng kama

"Good morning, love. Aga aga nag susungit ka lablab, baka bugnutin yang si ryry paglaki ah" I joked

Naka kunot naman ang noo niya at sinapak ako gamit ang pillows

"Lumayas ka nga! Diba sabi ko sayo sa labas ka matutulog" Jema said

I hugged her

"I'm sorry, lovelove. Gusto ko lang naman na kayo na ni kyla yung magka tabi sa higaan since bestfriends naman ako and I'm sure you two missed each other" Sagot ko

Hindi naman siya sumagot

"Sorry na, love. I'll cook breakfast nalang" Sambit ko

Napa tingin siya sakin

"T-talaga?" Jema said

I smiled and kissed her forehead

"I can cook for you. Kahit cravings mo pag lulutuan ko" Sambit ko

"Grabe ah! Pwede na talaga to Jems. House wife material" kyla said

Tapos na kami ngayong kumain ng breakfast

"House wife ka dyan" naka kunot noong tanong niya

"Kasi magiging mag asawa din naman tayo soon, lovelove. Diba ky?" Sambit ko

"Ay nako! approve na approve ka talaga sakin ate ells! " Kyla said and gave me a thumbs up

I smiled and raised my thumbs on her too

Plus points for me

Approved by both of her bestfriends

Parents nalang talaga namin ang kulang

Our families

Maybe I'll talk to them nalang soon

Maybe a month before Jema will give birth to our Irylle

Sana lang, They're both okay with us

I mean me and Jema
