Lucia's POV

Kanina pa ako nagising at hinihintay ko nalang si Oliver. Nag-text kasi siya na may pupuntahan kami ngayon. Ayaw ko naman siyang paghintayin kasi nakakatakot siya nung pinaghintay ko siya dati.

'I'm outside your room.'

Wow, hindi na lang kumatok. Tinatamad kumatok pero hindi tinatamad mag-text. Hay, naku. Lumabas na ako ng kwarto at nakita ko siyang nakasandal sa pader at nakatingin sa phone niya.

"Saan tayo pupunta?" tanong ko sa kanya. Naka-suot lang ako ng white crop top, black high-waisted jeans, at white sneakers. Parang hindi ata kami bagay dahil naka-polo siya. Ang hot niya, in fairness.

"It's Steffi's birthday, Jacob and Joseph's sister. Why did you dress like that?"

Ahhh. May pupuntahan lang pala yung sinabi mo, ser. Malay ko bang birthday party at kailangan palang mag-ayos.

"Akala ko kasi sa tabi-tabi lang tayo pupunta," sagot ko.

"Oh, my bad. I forgot to inform you. Just wear any dress and we're good to go. I'll give you another 5 minutes." sabi niya at umalis. Dali-dali akong pumunta sa walk-in closet ko, at sa dami ng damit na nandito, hindi ko alam kung anong isusuot ko. I think a black dress would be perfect for this occasion. For me, black is elegance, and you can never go wrong with black. Parang a-attend lang ng lamay, ganern.

Sinuot ko na ang black dress na nakuha ko at naglagay na lang ng lipstick at blush on. Tama na siguro ito, maganda naman ako kaya okay na 'to. Pagkatapos kong magsuot ng heels, tinext ko na si Oliver na ready na ako. Ready na ba talaga akong ma-meet nanaman ang mga mayayaman niyang mga kaibigan?

"Ohhh, you look good in that dress," sabi niya pagkakita niya sa akin. Sasagot na sana ako ng "I know," pero lowkey lang tayo dito.

"Thanks, ikaw din," sagot ko, at naglakad na kami papunta sa sasakyan. Sobrang yaman ni Oliver, pero hindi ko alam bakit parang may kulang pa rin sa kanya. Parang hindi siya gaanong kasaya.

Nakarating na kami sa bahay ng mga Hernandez, at mansyon din ito. Grabe, sa movies ko lang ito nakikita noon. Na-a-amaze pa rin ako sa mga yaman nila. Ang swerte-swerte nilang lahat.

"Hi Steffi! Happy birthday. This is my fiancé, Elle, Elle, this is Steffi," sabi ni Oliver.

"Hi Elle! Thank you for coming! I really thought Oliver would not come here na kasi he told me you have duty pa daw sa hospital. I am really glad you made it!" sabi ni Steffi. Nakita ko na rin sila Sander, Jacob, at Joseph. Pero yung taong iniiwasan ko, ay hindi ko ata makita.

"Happy Birthday Steff!" sigaw ng isang lalaki na napaka-pamilyar ang boses. Hindi nga ako nagkakamali, ang taong iniiwasan ko. Isang taon na ang nakalipas, pero yung sugat sa puso ko, hindi pa rin naghihilom. Ewan ko ba, ganito yata pag first love? Haha.

Natapos na kaming kumain, at nagsimula na ang totoong party. Hindi ako sanay sa mga ganito, hindi rin ako umiinom. I didn't even enjoy my college life dahil wala akong pera para sa mga luho. Sapat lang ang pera ko sa pang-araw-araw ko. Naghiyawan na ang lahat at yung iba naman ay sumasayaw. Nag-uusap sila Oliver ng business, pero hindi ko maintindihan lahat.

"Oliver, CR lang ako," sabi ko, at hinanap ko yung CR. Nahanap ko rin, at nasa kabilang gazebo pa pala yung isa. Hindi ko ata kayang dumaan sa gitna para mag-CR sa harap.

"Elle."

Wag kang lumingon.

"Elle."

Wag kang lilingon kundi papataying kita mamaya.

"Elle, can we talk?" hinawakan niya yung braso ko. Hindi ko alam kung anong gagawin ko. Hindi nag-function yung utak ko. Ilang beses ko na itong iniisip kung ano ba sasabihin ko pag nagkita kami ulit, pero nawala lahat ng mga plano ko sa sandaling ito.

"Ano pa bang pag-uusapan natin, Dein?"

"Elle, I am so sorry. Pakinggan mo naman ako."

"Para saan pa? Akala ko ba masaya ka na?"

"Paano ako sasaya kung ikaw ang kaligayahan ko? Simula nung nawala ka sa buhay ko, wala na akong maramdamang saya, Elle."

"Oh tapos? Kasalanan ko ba?" sabi ko at dali-dali akong bumalik kina Oliver. Hindi pa ako handa. Hindi ako makapag-isip. My God, I am so dumb! Hindi ko alam, pero kumuha na lang ako ng drinks sa lamesa at napainom ako. Parang juice lang naman ang lasa, kaya dinamihan ko na. Hindi naman ata ito alcoholic drink.

Oliver's POV

"Dude, I think Elle didn't know that what she's drinking right now is a cocktail...."

I looked at Lucia's direction and I saw her emptying the whole freaking tray of cocktail. What the hell is she thinking?! She's supposed to act pregnant for Pete's sake! I can't with this woman!

I approached her and called her name, but I think she can't hear me. She's still drinking, and I don't know what to do with her!

"Elle, stop that. You're supposed to act pregnant! Alcohol is not good for the baby." She just looked at me and smiled. God, she's beautiful. Hell no, Oliver, she's just your surrogate. She's about to drink another glass, but I stopped her and carried her. I looked at my friends and shouted that we are going to the hospital and told them that she thought it was juice.

"Where the hell did you drink that?! That was a fucking cocktail!"

"Hmmmm. I hgvsgvd you."

"What?!"

"Uwgqwdhjqwbd."

Seriously? She's so fucking drunk! I told the driver that we'll go to the hospital and called Diane that we will be staying at the presidential suite and no one should know that we are there. I should still act like she's pregnant so my friends won't doubt that we are faking the whole damn thing.

We entered at the backdoor and used the VIP elevator. No one should know that we went here, especially the media.

"Just tell them not to mind us. Please prepare hangover soup for tomorrow," I told them as I was carrying her upstairs. She's mumbling something, but I can't understand what she was saying. I put her on the bed, but she wrapped her hand around my neck.

"Oliver."

"Fuck, what now?"

She's so close to me. I can fucking hear her heartbeat. She's looking in my eyes. I can't read her mind. I don't know what to do.

"Oliver.."

"What the fuck is it, Lucia?"

"Fuck me, Oliver."

"What?! Are you fucking crazy?"

"No, I am not. Make love to me."

My heart was beating so fast. I don't know if the room is hot or if it's the alcohol kicking in....

"Is that what you really want?"

"Yes." She's looking straight into my eyes and soul.

"If—" She kissed me. She's fucking kissing me....

"Fuck this, Lucia. I can't hold it anymore."
