A night with you

Night 15

Night 15:

Dina (Juami's Mom):

-Flashback-

I was busy doing some paperworks in my office when my phone suddenly rang.

Monica Elizalde calling...

Monica? Why is she calling me?

"Hello?"

"Hello Dina!" she greeted me, "Are you busy today?"

"Hindi naman masyado, just doing some paperworks. Why?"

"I need to talk to you. We really need to talk." she said in a very serious tone.

"Sure, about what ba?"

"About Juami and Brianna." diretsong sagot niya.

Juami and Brianna? What about them? Ang alam ko matagal ng hiwalay na yung dalawa eh. Never naman nag-open si Juami sa'kin kung bakit sila naghiwalay.

"Let's meet somewhere in Alabang later. Around 5 siguro after ko mag-out." sagot ko sakanya.

"Sige, I'll text you kung saan."

"Okay. Bye Monica!"

"Bye Dina!" then she ended the call.

After talking to Monica hindi na ako mapalagay, iniisip ko kung ano ba ang dapat namin pag-usapan.

Nako Juan Miguel!!! Anong kalokohan ang ginawa mo?!

--

Saktong pag-out ko ng mareceive ko yung text ni Monica.

From: Monica Elizalde

Dina, let's meet at Starbucks in ATC.

To: Monica Elizalde

Okay. I'm on my way.

After sending my reply to her, I headed to the parking lot and drove to ATC. Buti nalang mejo malapit lang office ko sa ATC kaya hindi naman ako nahirapan.

Pagdating ko ng Starbucks andun na si Monica, sa dulong part siya nakaupo.

"Hi Monica!" I greeted her then I gave her a quick peck on her cheek.

"Finally you're here, Dina!" nakangiting sabi niya, "Inorder na kita ah."

"Thanks!" mabilis na sagot ko, "Ano nga pala ang pag-uusapan natin?"

She heaved out a deep sigh, "My daughter is 3 months pregnant, Dina." diretsong sabi niya.

I was shocked with I heard. My mind can't seem to process it. Binigla naman kasi ako ni Monica eh.

"And Juami is the father?" naguguluhang tanong ko. What kind of question was that, Dina?! Ano ba, naloloka ako sa nalaman ko.

She nodded at me, "Yeah."

"So, anong plano?" tanong ko.

"Ayaw ipaalam ni Brianna kay Juami." sagot niya, "Kahit anong pilit ko sakanya na sabihin kay Juami. Once daw na malaman niya na alam ni Juami ilalayo niya daw ang bata."

"Pano naman yung anak ko, Monica?" pagtatanggol ko kay Juami, "He deserves to know it."

"That's what I told her. Pero ayaw talaga niya."

Napahawak nalang ako sa ulo ko. Juan Miguel naman! Hindi ka pa nga nakakatapos ng kolehiyo may anak ka na! At ayaw pa ipaalam sa'yo na may anak kayo.

"Ako nalang ang bahala sa gastos ng bata, Monica. Pati yung hospital bills." suggestion ko, "Pero sana kahit ako man lang payagan mo na makita ko yung apo ko kahit palihim nalang."
