Alia POV

I woke up early because I was feeling nauseous again. I got up slowly to avoid waking Micah. Once I was up, I went straight to the bathroom.

When I entered the bathroom, I locked the door immediately. While I was vomiting, someone knocked.
"Baby, are you okay?" Micah said.
"oh shit, she's already awake. What should I say?" I thought to myself.
"I-I'm fine," I stammered.

"Are you sure? Please open the door," she said. I quickly unlocked the door.
"Baby, why are you throwing up?" she asked. "may masakit ba sa'yo?" she added. "uhm, baka nalamigan lang po ako" I said, making an excuse.

"Baby, I know you're lying. Is there something you're not telling me?" she said, holding both my hands. "Baby, huhuhu," I started crying.
"Don't cry. Tell me what's wrong," she said, hugging me.

"I think I'm pregnant. I haven't had my period for a month," I said, continuing to cry. She was shocked by what I said, and her face clearly showed her surprise.

"Ah, um, really po?" Her expression suddenly changed to one of happiness. "I'm not sure; I haven't taken a pregnancy test yet," I said.
"Well, baby, when we get back to Manila, I'll go with you for a check-up," she said.

"you're not mad?" I asked, "bakit naman po ako magagalit?" she said and caressing my cheeks, "kala ko kasi, if meron man talagang baby sa t'yan ko ay you won't accept it and iiwan mo'ko" I said.

"Baby no, don't say that. Look at me, no matter what happens, I will never leave you. I promise I will always be here for you," she said, then kissed me on the lips.

"I love you," I said, gently caressing her face. "I love you more, baby," she replied, kissing me on the lips again.

"Are you okay now?" she asked.
"Yes," I replied. We then left the bathroom, and she had me sit on the couch while she knelt in front of me.

"baby, ako napo ang magaayos ng mga gamit natin, pahinga ka nalang po dito" she said, "are you sure? I'll help you nalang po" I said.

"No, just sit here, I've got this," she said, and began organizing our things and packing them neatly into the suitcase. Our flight was at 4:00 PM, so we planned to leave the villa at 2:00 PM to avoid rushing, as the airport was an hour away.

Since it was still midday, we decided to have lunch at the villa before leaving. Micah had finished organizing our things when someone knocked on the door. She immediately went to answer it.

"bro, lunch na daw tayo" Gavi said, "oh, sige sunod kami ni Alia" Micah replied, "sige, wait namin kayo" Gavi said before leaving. Micah then closed the door and came over to me.

"baby, let's lunch na daw po" she said, "okay, papalit lang ako damit" I said, after changing Micah and I went downstairs.

"Oh, they're here," Clinton said. Alia and Micah took their seats so they could start eating. While they were eating, Marian asked, "Oh guys, ready bnaba mga gamit n'yo?"
"Yup, ready na kanina pa," Jaron replied.

"Me too, I'm done organizing," Steffi said. "Of course, I helped you," Jaron said, winking at Steffi. "Thanks, I almost forgot," Steffi replied. Everyone noticed the interaction between Steffi and Jaron and was surprised because they weren't arguing.
