The Eccentric Marriage (Fixed Series #2)

Chapter 34

Chapter 34

"I heard malaki na ang dalawang anak mo, ilang taon na nga sila?" I asked so she can turn her gaze to me.

She smiled and opened her phone. She showed me a picture of a cute little boy and girl. I guess, they're already 4 or 5 years old, kasing edad no'ng kambal nina Kuya Tusher at Lauri.

Yes, Kuya Tusher and Lauri have sons already. Actually kambal ang mga 'yon and based on what I heard, they're expecting a baby number three this week.

"They're both 4, turning 5 in few months," she answered casually before turning off her phone.

My mouth formed an 'o'. "Congrats."

"Congrats din," she answered then took a glanced of Ellie again.

I was about to talk, when she got a phone call from someone.

"I need to go Ella, see you soon," she said before saying goodbye.

When we are about to go home, my phone vibrated. My Ate's calling.

I answered it immediately. "Hello."

[We need you here] she said. I rolled my eyes because of that. She keeps on forcing me to go home but I couldn't and I don't think I can due to my busy sched.

"I told you—"

[You told me that you're busy] she finished my sentence!

"Glad you know," I said before starting the car's engine.

Sinulyapan ko sandali si Ellie na ngayon ay nakangiti habang hawak ang doll house niya na binili ko.

[Dad and Mom wants to see you, magpakita ka naman ulit sa kanila]

"I'll see what I can do Unnie," I said while driving.

[Magpaalam ka sa asawa mo, besides pwede mo namang iwan si Ellie kay Rusell]

"Oo na unnie, I'll see what I can do okay?"

[I'll talk to your husband, baka sakaling mapapayag ka niya] she chuckled.

I rolled my eyes. "Don't bother him, abala masyado 'yon sa trabaho."

[If you don't want me to bother him, then go home and see Mom and Dad]

Nakagat ko ang ibabang labi saka nahilot ang sentido. Hindi ako titigilan ni ate hangga't hindi ako pumapayag! Ayoko rin naman na pati asawa ko ay guluhin pa niya, my gosh!

"Okay, fine! Just don't bother my husband," sabi ko bago tuluyang ibinaba ang tawag.

Nakauwi kami agad ni Ellie sa condo. Hawak ko siya sa isa kong kamay habang sa isa kong kamay ay iyong susi ng condo. Siya na ang may dala no'ng laruan niya dahil hindi na niya iyon mabitawan. Ayaw niya rin naman ipahawak sa akin.

"What happened?" bungad kaagad ni Rusell nang makapasok kami ni Ellie sa loob ng unit.

He's here already! Akala ko'y mamaya pa siya darating? Gosh, this guy never fails to surprise me!

"Unnie called me earlier," I said while massaging my temple. Inilapag ko rin muna 'yong gamit ko sa center table.

"She's asking you to come home again?" Rusell asked. He knew about this siguro? Sabagay, ano pa nga bang hindi niya alam?

I shrugged. "Yes at pumayag ako," I said then got the bottle of water inside my bag. I dranked it. I can feel his stare, he's watching me! Naiilang tuloy ako.
