AMACon 3: Oikos (30 Day Drabble Challenge)

Day 26 - Five Questions

"Papi Alden, I'm bored," Jerald said, plopping down on a chair. "Wala ka bang pasabog diyan?"

"Ha?" RJ looked up. "Bakit ka ba kasi nandito sa condo namin ni Menggay? Si Valeen na lang guluhin mo."

"Ay, grabe siya oh!"

"Para kang ano, Je. Alam mo naman..."

Jerald rolled his eyes. "Talaga ba? Halos hindi na nga kayo mapaghiwalay eh. 'Wag ako, Papi Alden."

"Susmaryosep, Je. Pwede ba? Umuwi ka na."

"Ayoko nga!" Jerald crossed his arms in front of his chest. "Hihintayin ko si Meng! Isusumbong kita."

"Bakit? Anong ginawa ng baby oil ko?" A female voice interrupted. "Saka bakit ka nandito Je? Akala ko ba may date kayo ni Val?"

Maine came into sight and walk towards them, sitting on the couch next to RJ. She placed her bag on the floor before placing a kiss on RJ's cheeks.

"I missed you, baby boy," Maine greeted.

"I missed you too, baby girl."

Jerald looked away. "Grabe talaga itong dalawang ito! Nakalimutan na naman na may tao sa paligid nila."

"Umuwi ka na kasi, Je!" RJ said after a few moments. "Istorbo ka eh."

"Bored nga ako," Jerald turned to them. "Kailangan ko ng pasabog galing sa inyo."

"Sure ka ba diyan?" Maine replied. "Baka mahimatay ka na naman!

RJ burst into laughter. "Bahala ka kung bigla kang mag-collapse dito! Hindi kita bubuhatin. Ipapahila kita sa mga guard dito."

"Inaano ba kayo?" Jerald pouted. "Sige na naman oh. Kahit yes or no lang ang sagot niyo! Kailangan ko pa bang lumuhod?"

Maine sighed, leaning on RJ's chest. "Fine. Five questions lang."

Jerald clapped his hands excitedly. "Yes! Okay, first question. Mahal niyo ba ang isa't isa?"

"You just wasted a question," RJ told him. "Of course, it's a yes!"

"Iba pa rin iyung ako mismo ang makakarinig no!"

RJ shook his head in disbelief. "Oo na."

"Okay, next. Ano iyung suot na singsing ni Meng sa FB live? Wedding ring ba talaga iyun?"

"Yes! Next question please," Maine said in response.

"Huy, Je! Bakit bigla kang natulala?"

Jerald shook his head as if to clear his thoughts. "Sorry, Papi Alden! Medyo nag-hang lang ako dun."

"Marupok ka kasi!"

"Okay." Jerald took a deep breath. "Nagpakasal ba talaga kayo sa Italy?"

"Yes," RJ said, placed his arms around her stomach. "Magpapakasal ulit kami dito."

"Wait. Teka lang naman. Seryoso ba iyan?"

"Iyan na ba ang fourth question mo?"

"Hindi!" Jerald immediately said. "Hindi iyun ang tanong ko! Rhetorical question kasi iyun."

"Rhetorical. Big word ha!" Maine said teasingly. "Ano na iyung last question mo? Inaantok na talaga ako."

"Dali na, Je!"

Jerald held up his hands. "Sandali lang! Iniisip ko pa ang tanong ko."

"Jerald," RJ said warningly.

"Ano," Jerald began, looking at them inquisitively. Pinagtri-tripan ba nila ako? Bakit puro yes ang sagot nila? Gusto ata nila akong mahimatay eh!

Maine playfully threw the pillow at him.

"Aray!" Jerald exclaimed. "Bastos talaga kayo!"

"Ang tagal mo kasing mag-isip!" Maine said defensively. "Vase na ang ibabato ko kapag hindi ka pa nagtanong."

"Grabe siya! Uhm. Meng, are you pregnant?"

"Yes," Maine said with a wide smile. "We're having twins!"

Jerald almost fell off his chair. "What? Totoo ba ito? Nanaginip lang ba ako? Magiging ninong na ako?!?"

"Huy! Feeling mo ha," RJ said with a laugh. "Pag-iisipan ko pa ng mga twenty-four times."
Asan ba iyung oxygen tank ko? Jerald thought to himself. Papatayin na talaga ako ng dalawang ito eh!

"Bibigwasan na kita, Je!" RJ said, interrupting his train of thoughts. "Sabihin mo na ang last question mo! Magpapahinga pa si Meng oh."

"Gwapo ba ako?" Jerald smirked. He wanted to test them and see if they would say yes again. "Wala namang magagalit kasi si Valeen naman ang nasa puso't isip ko."

Maine turned to Alden, trying to hold back her laughter. He gave her a smirk before nodding his head.

"Yes, gwapo ka...deep inside."

"Sir! Sir, gising po!"

Jerald bolted awake. "Ha? Bakit?"

"Ang hirap niyo hong gisingin! Para kayong mantika kung matulog."

He looked at his surroundings. "Asan ako?"

The nurse looked at him concernedly. "Po? Nasa hospital po kayo, sir. Sinugod po kayo dito kaninang umaga."

"Panaginip lang ang lahat?" Jerald breathed a sigh of relief. "Buti na lang! Teka. Bakit nga ba ako nahi..."

"Sir!"

The nurse hurriedly called the doctor to inform him that his patient lost consciousness. Again.
