Pagpasensyahan naman po ang tagal ng update. Idinadaos ko na lang talaga tong istoryang ito =(

VICTORIA

Jason gave the go-signal for me to resume my usual physical activities, except for any strenuous activity. Sabi nya, I can even go to work, lalo na at nasa NICU pa din si Sky.

I was seriously considering the idea. Bored na ako sa bahay, lalo pa at Matt is continuously hovering around me as if I'm gonna break the moment na umalis sya.

Plus add to the frustration na we would make out, as in heavy making out, and then we could even do it. While it is true that we can actually do things to satisfy our needs, still iba pa din when you become one with that person you love.

Thinking of it alone would wanna make me scream bloody murder.

Dinaanan din namin si Sky, para makapagpa breastfeed and at the same time, ay mag iwan ako ng breastmilk for her. Sabi ni Jason, if she continues to respond well to treatment and she continues to gain weight, baka puede na syang lumabas ng hospital in two weeks.

Halos dumoble na din ang weight nya from the time na pinanganak sya kaya confident naman ako na makakalabas na sya.

Naka ready na yung nursery sa bahay. Hindi magpaawat si Matt sa kakabili ng mga toys at mga damit. Isali mo pa si Papa, si Hans at si Jason. Mukha ng department store ang kwarto nya.

Nakikinita ko ng lalaking spoiled talaga itong si Sky.

"Do you wanna go home o we eat lunch sa labas?" Tanong sa akin ni Matt habang naglalakad kami papunta sa sasakyan nya.

"Can we eat doon sa Greek resto malapit sa office ni Papa? Tapos daanan na din natin sya o kaya let's invite him to have lunch with us."

Gusto kong matawa sa nakita kong discomfort sa mukha ni Matt, "sige, I'll call the resto and you call your father and invite him to have lunch with us."

Kinuha ni Matt ang mobile phone habang ganun din ang ginawa ko para tawagan ang tatay ko. Hindi pa halos natatapos ang isang ring ay sinagot na nya ito.

"Victoria," may pag-aalala sa boses nya. "May nangyari ba sa iyo?"

Yan lagi ang tanong nya sa akin everytime na tumatawag ako sa kanya. As if he was just waiting for Matt to fail. In fact, may kotse na naka standby sa condo, "just in case you decide to leave Matt." Sabi nya sa akin.

Masaya din minsan yung may overprotective na tatay lalo pa lumaki ako na halos walang mga magulang.

"Pa, wala. Ang OA ha! We are just on way to that resto near your office. I was wondering if you want to have lunch with me and Matt?"

"No sweetie, madaming ginagawa sa opisina."

"Daan na lang kami dyan after naming mag lunch. I'll bring you something to eat ha."

"Sige. Kasama mo pa ba talaga si Matt?"

Natawa ako sa tanong nya. "Of course. Pa, kailangan mo na talagang tanggapin na he is going to be a part of your life."

"Okay. See you then." Natawa ako sa disappointment sa boses nya.

"Why are you smiling?" Tanong sa akin ni Matt pagkalapit nya sa akin.
