Wedded by Fate

<Third Person>

Exact 9 pm na nakauwi ang mag-ama at marami na naman dala ang mga ito.

"Saan kayo pumunta?" Tanong ni Sabrina sa lalaki.

"At the mall. I'll just bring him to his room," sabi ni Kioz habang karga ang anak. Nakatulog na ito sa pagod. Naglaro pa kasi sila sa Carnival at namili. They had a bonding.

Pumunta na lang din si sa kwarto nila mag-asawa Sabrina at nilinis ang kanyang sarili. Natatakot siya magtanong. Alam naman niya kasalanan niya. Kanina pa din siya umiiyak. Ang mahalaga ay nakauwi na ang dalawa.

Sabrina's putting lotion on her legs when Kioz came out from the restroom wearing towel on his waist. Wala siyang abs pero flat ang tummy niya and he looks yummy, the water is dripping in his body. Litaw ang mga ugat ni Kioz sa kanyang kamay.

Sabrina's eyes widened in surprise as she took in the sight of Kioz emerging from the restroom. She couldn't help but stare at the way the water droplets clung to his skin, making his muscles seem more defined than usual. And that flat stomach of his? She had never seen him like that before.

As she continued to gaze, Kioz seemed to sense her attention and turned to face her. Their eyes met, and for a moment, they just stared at each other. Sabrina felt her cheeks flush as she quickly looked away, pretending to focus on the lotion in her hand. But Kioz didn't seem to notice her awkwardness.

"What happened between the two of you?" Basag ni Kioz sa katahimikan.

"I'm sorry," hingin paumanhin ni Sabrina at yumuko. Tapos na din naman siya mag lotion sa paa.

"What happened? He's mad at you."

"I lost patience. Hindi ko din alam, bigla na lang ako sumabog. Alam ko naman na hyper siya at bata pa lang siya, I didn't know kung bakit ko nagawa iyon. Hindi ko naman sinasadya," umiiyak na nagsisisi na sabi ni Sabrina.

Bumuntong hininga si Kioz at lumapit sa kanya. He wipe her tears and his eyes became gentle and bloom. May emosyon na ang mga mata nito, hindi na malamig at galit kagaya noong nakaraan na month.

"Hindi ko din maintindhan ang sarili ko. I was thinking a lot of things kaya sumabog na lang," she sobs.

"Ssshhh," pagpapatahan ni Kioz sa kanya.

"I already talk to him, he'll apologize tomorrow, and promise him that you wouldn't do that again, okay?" Kausap ni Kioz na para siyang bata.

She nods her head.

"Now, stop crying," malumanay at malambing na sabi ni Kioz at niyakap siya. Napasubsob ang mukha ni Sabrina sa matigas na tummy ni Kioz.

He caress her hair, a sign that na pinapatahan siya nito at kino-comfort.

A minutes passed hindi pa rin siya tumigil sa kakaiyak. Kioz lift her face at hinalikan siya ng matagal sa labi at hinalikan siya sa forehead.

As Kioz's lips touched hers, Sabrina felt a rush of emotions wash over her. She had never felt this way before, and she couldn't help but wonder if this was what it meant to be truly happy.

The kiss deepened, and Sabrina found herself lost in the sensation of Kioz's lips on hers. She had never experienced anything like it before, and she couldn't help but feel like she was floating on air.

As they pulled away from each other, Sabrina's eyes met Kioz's, and she saw the same spark of excitement and desire that she felt. It was like they were both thinking the same thing: that this was it, that this was the moment they had been waiting for.

Without a word, Kioz leaned in again, his lips crashing against hers in a passionate kiss. Sabrina felt herself getting swept away by the waves of emotion, her heart pounding in her chest as she wrapped her arms around Kioz's waist.

As they kissed, Sabrina felt like she was melting into Kioz's arms, her body responding to his touch in ways she never thought possible. She was lost in the moment, her senses overwhelmed by the sensations coursing through her body.

And yet, as much as she wanted to get lost in this moment, a part of her knew that she couldn't let go completely. She had to keep her wits about her, to remember that this was just a momentary lapse of judgment.

But as Kioz's lips continued to caress hers, Sabrina found herself getting more and more caught up in the passion of the moment. She knew that she should be careful, but she couldn't help herself. She was too caught up in the thrill of the unknown, too swept away by the rush of emotions coursing through her body.

And so, as they pulled away from each other once more, Sabrina knew that she had to be careful. She had to remember that this was just a momentary lapse of judgment, that she couldn't let herself get lost in the passion of the moment.

But as she looked into Kioz's eyes, she knew that it was already too late. She was already hooked, already caught up in the whirlwind of emotions that he had stirred within her.

And as they shared another kiss, Sabrina knew that she would never be able to go back to the way things were before. She had crossed a line, and there was no turning back, and they made the rest of the night.

"Sabrina, is this PT yours?" Seryosong tanong ni Kioz habang hawak ang isang maliit na puting bagay.

Napatingin doon si Sabrina at napatulala. Napakagat siya sa kanyang labi.

"Are you pregnant?" Kioz asked.

Sabrina nodded her head without seconds thought.

Nasusuka na kasi siya at palagi siyang inaantok, ganoon ang nararamdaman niya noong pinagbubuntis niya si Kyo. Nagpabili siya ng PT sa kasamabahay, while waiting sa results ay naiwan niya sa restroom ang PT ng tawagin siya ng kanyang anak.

"Are you going to run away again? Are you going to leave me?"

"What are you talking, Kioz?"

Kioz is hella scared, na-trauma na siya sa ginawa sa kanya ng kanyang asawa.

"You're pregnant and you'll leave me," naiiyak na akusa ni Kioz.

"What are you talking about? I won't leave."

"Don't leave me, baby," sabi niy Kioz at takot na niyakap niya ang babae.

Sabrina felt a pang on her heart, dahil sa kanya ay natatakot ang kanyang asawa. She hugs him too.

"Let's fix our marriage," suhesyon ni Kioz.

"Let's start anew with our new angel," he added.

Sabrina nodded her head.

"We will. I am sorry for everything to what I did."

Kioz careers her hair.

Sabrina and Kioz agreed na aayusin nila ang marriage nila, they are working on it at nagpapa marriage council na din sila.

Sabrina and Kioz couldn't help but feel a sense of accomplishment and joy. They had overcome so much, and now they were finally where they were meant to be - together, as husband and wife, and parents to their two beautiful children. The name of their second baby is Oxin Harrington.

It's time to say goodbye, but not goodbye forever. Signing off with love and happiness, Mr and Mrs. Harrington.
