Week passed and my mother's flight delayed so wala pa sya rito baka this Friday. It's Monday and I want pizza. Bumangon ako para puntahan ang kwarto ni Vance para utusan syang magorder ng pizza.

"Vance!" I knocked on his door.

"Hm?" He finally opened the door.

"I want a pizza can you get me one please." I smile.

"Sure darling anything for you." He kissed me on my forehead before getting his phone.

Pumunta na akong baba para manood ng tv habang naghihintay ng pizza. Hindi pa masyadong malaki ang tyan ko kaya di pa halata. I really want pizza. Hindi na nga ako maka-focus sa panonood kasi pizza lang nasa isip ko. Vance sat beside me.

"Hey darling." Pagkuha nya ng atensyon.

"Hmm?" I said.

"Nothing I just missed you." He said and give me a soft kiss. I just smile.

When we heard the door bell I immediately ran to get the pizza. Hindi ko namalayan na sinundan pala  ako ni Vance. Nasa likod ko na sya at tumatawa. Binigyan ko na ang bayad at kinuha agad yung pizza at tumakbo sa dining area.

"Be careful darling." Vance said still laughing.

"Why are you laughing!?" I asked him.

"Nothing your just so cute." Vance said.

Hindi ko sya pinansin at kumain nalang. Ng matapos kaming kumain ng pizza pumunta na ako sa kwarto ko at nagkulong. Ayaw ko nanaman sya makita. Ayaw ko sya makita kasi balang araw aalis din ako. Balang araw iiwan ko sya. Nasira ang pagmumuni-muni ko ng tumunog ang phone ko. It's the doctor.

"Yes tito?" I asked.

["Ahmm. Pao you need to go here with the father of that child. The father must know about that." He said.

"I already told you tito i can't tell him that we have a baby. Hindi ko alam kung tatanggapin nya ba o hindi I'm scared and I hope you will understand my situation." I said. I ended up the call.

Sana hindi nalang sya tumawag nakalimutan ko na nga na mamamatay ako kapag nanganak na ako e kaso pinaalala nanaman nung punyetang doktor na yon. Oo kaibigan sya ni daddy pero wala parin dapat sya pake kung sasabihin ko ba kay Vance o hindi dapat gawin nya lang ang trabaho nya.

Nagring ulit ang phone ko akala ko si doc yun kaya di ko pinapansin. Nakailang ring na kaya nainis na ako sinagot ko yung tawag.

"What the fuck doc! Just mind your own business okay!?" Sigaw ko sa kabilang linya.

["What are you saying Pauline it's me your mother."] Mahinahong sabi ni mommy sa kabilang linya.

"Oh I'm sorry mom I thought it's my doctor. why did you call? May problema ba?" I ask.

["I just want to tell you that I will arrived there tomorrow that's why I called you."] Mom explained.

"Okay Mom take care." I said.

[" You too."] Sabi nya at pinatay na ang tawag.

All night I am thinking about what's the gender of my baby. I want to see if this baby will be a girl or a boy. Gusto ko makita kung sino kamukha nya. I want to see how he or she will grow but I can't I just wish that my baby won't hate because I left him/her Early. Hinaplos ko ang tyan ko.

"Don't hate mommy okay? Mommy loves you I left because I love you and maybe because it's my time. I love you." I talked to my tummy.

                 Patricia POV ( Pauline's mother )

Pagkatapos kong tawagan si Pauline nagsimula na akong mag-impake dahil maaga ang flight ko. Mike is also helping me to pack.

"Ilang araw ka doon?"  Mike asked.

"Don't worry love I now you can manage the company without me I trust you. And Hindi ko sure kung hanggang kailan ako doon." I said.

"Okay if you say so" mike said and kissed me in my forehead.

Pagkatapos kong nag-impake nag-shower na ako. I can't help worrying about my daughter she will suffer alot. I don't want to think about her dying if she will keep the baby.

"Ugh ano ba tong pinasok mo Pauline." I said.

Pagkatapos kong mag-shower nagpahinga na ako dahil maaga akong gigising bukas.

***
I woke up early. My flight is 9:30 am. Nang matapos akong nag-ayos nagpahatid na ako kay Mike.

Pagdating namin sa airport ay saktong 9:30 am so nagmamadali pa ako. Nang makasakay ako sa eroplano hindi ko alam pero kinakabahan ako kaya natulog nalang ako.

I arrived in Hongkong safe. Dumeretso na agad ako sa condo nila Pauline. Kumatok na ako ng makarating ako sa tapat ng pinto nila. Si Vance ang nagbukas at batang aalis. Nagulat din siya ng makita ako.

"T-tita? What are you doing here?" He asked me. I just gave him a smile.

"Oh there's a business here so I'm here by the way where are you going? If you don't mind telling me." I asked.

"Oh I have a friend here and he want to hung out ayaw ko nga sana e kasi ayaw ko iwan si pao but Pauline said she will be fine." He said.

"Oh so Yu know that Pauline is preg—"

"Mommy your here!?" Pauline said and pulled me closer to her and hugged me tight.

"Yes I'm here." I said.

"Bye Vance enjoy." She said waving her hands. Tumango naman si Vance.

Pumasok na kami sa loob ng condo nila. I sat down on the sofa to relax my body. Umupo din si Pauline parang May gusto syang sabihin na di nya masimulan. Tapos naalala ko yung sadya ko rito.

"What the fuck Pauline! What have you done. Alam mo bang mamamatay ka kapag nanganak ka!?" Sermon ko sakanya.

"Yes I know that." Nakayuko nyang sagot. "And I will keep the baby." Dagdag nya na ikinagulat ko.

"What the!? You will keep the baby and you will die is that your plan?" Galit kong sabi. Nakayuko lang sya. " Hindi ko kayang pati ikaw mawala sa akin. Dati ang daddy mo and now you. I can't believe this!" I say while wiping my tears.

"I'm sorry mommy. But we are talking about my baby's life, ayaw kong ipagkait sakanya na mabuhay. I want this baby to see how beautiful the world is. I want this baby to have a good life." Sabi nya at ngayon umiiyak din.

Kailangan kong maging malakas para sakanya wala naman magagawa ang mga luha ko. Pinunasan ko ang mga luha ko at tinignan sya.

"Who's the father of this baby?" Tanong ko.

"Vance is the father of this baby." She said.
