My Antagonist Wife *completed*

Twenty Seven

"Ano, tapos na?" I shook my head.

"Nope. Kaunti na lang. I'm just making some adjustments." I checked on her. "Approved ba 'yung iba?" Al looked at me while holding the pieces of bond paper I submitted to her and Dave for approval.

"Okay na okay, baks! Actually, those designs...they don't need any adjustments. They're perfect as they are. Huwag mo nang bawasan o dagdagan." Tumango ako.

"So..my work's done!" Sumandal ako sa swivel chair at humikab.

"You should get some sleep." Dave suggested.

"Oo nga. Haggard na haggard na ang beauty ni mama, e!" Sabay kaming natawa sa sinabi ni Al.

"Nahihilo ako." I said while pressing my forehead.

"Antok lang 'yan. We've been sleeping late these past few days. Tara na." Al was preparing to sleep.

We're here at my condo. Its been one month since me and Jerod last saw each other. After that incident at our house, we rarely see each other. Or should I say...I've been trying my best to avoid him. I'm glad he wasnt trying to contact me or approach me at the university.

"Morning!" Al greeted me as I enter the kitchen.

"What's that smell?!" I yelled while trying not to breathe in the disgusting smell.

"Hoy bakla, 'wag mo'kong artehan dyan. Bacon lang 'to. Kausapin mo 'yang kaibigan mo ha, medyo nakaka-offend." Dave rolled his eyes at me before going back to cooking.

"Have you informed Jan about the finished designs?" I asked Al while covering my nose.

"Yes. Kakatawag ko lang sa kanya kanina." She looked at me warily. "Hey, nababahuan ka talaga?" She asked while preparing the table.

"Yeah. I don't like its smell. Hindi pa ba panis 'yan?" She asked.

"No! Kakabili lang namin niyan kanina, baks. Nako, tigil-tigilan mo'ko." Dave pointed at me using the fork.

"Okay! Calm down." I sat on one of the chairs. "Al, may gamot ka? I don't feel well. I think I can't make it to class." She threw me the table napkin.

"Uluuuul! You need to attend our class kay Ms. Orduja. We might fail it. Ang dami na nating absences doon." She said while helping Dave to transfer the cooked bacon to the plate.

"I don't feel well, really." I said while playing with my spoon and fork.

Dave put the plate full of bacon in front of me. Parang biglang bumaligtad ang sikmura ko nang nakita ko ang ga-bundok na bacon. Mabilis akong tumayo at tumakbo papunta sa CR.

"Baks, anyare?" Al asked while caressing my back.

Umiling lang ako while gurgling the water. Wala naman ako halos isinuka.

"I don't know." Hinarap ko si Al. "I told you, I'm not feeling well." She tapped my shoulder.

"Oh sige na. Naniniwala na ako. I'll just tell Ms. Orduja that you're not feeling well today. I just hope she'll believe me." She laughed and sat back on her chair.

"Buntis ka, baks." Dave announced while slicing his hotdogs.

Nasamid ako bigla sa sinabi niya. Mabilis akong uminom ng tubig.

"Ang galing rin ng timing mo, e. Kung kailan kumakain na ako? Pwede ba, Dave? Buntis buntis ka dyan?" I glared at him and continued eating.

"Bahala ka, it's just base from my observations. You don't like the smell of bacon, when in fact there's nothing wrong about it tapos masama pakiramdam mo and last but not the least, nagsuka ka. Signs of being preggy!" He laughed devilishly.
