Today is my baby shower and gender reveal party and for heaven's sake kanina pa ako hindi mapakali rito dahil hindi daw nila mahagilap si Achilles. I mean I need to see him, I wanna see him because my morning sickness is kicking, siya kase ang gustong gusto kong makita pag gising ko dahil siya ang pinaglilihian ko pero wala siya! Halos masuka ako habang inaalalayan ako ni Brandon paupo sa sofa.

"Mera, please just please calm down. Achilles is now on his way. Bakit ba kase siya pa ang pwede mong pag lihian pwede naman kaseng ako na lang hindi ba?"nakangusong turan ni Brandon rason para mapangiwi ako. He is cute!

"Bran nandito na si Achilles!"napatingin kaming lahat sa pintuan ng biglang sumigaw si Grayson papasok rito kasabay si Achilles. Mabilis naman akong tumayo mula sa aking kinauupuan at linapitan si Achilles at niyakap ito na parang bata. Grabe ang bango at ang cute niya~

"Hindi na talaga ako mag tataka Brandon pag hindi kayo mag kamukha ng anak mo!"tawa ni Caden kaya hinampas siya ni Brandon. Mabilis naman akong hinatak papalayo ni Brandon mula kay Achilles kaya mas lalo silang natawa.

"Hon, pwede bang ako na lang pag lihian mo hindi siya? Mas cute naman ako 'di ba?"Bran declared as I laugh in response.

"Mas cute kase ako sa'yo Brandon, face it!"Achilles fought back, napangiwi na lamang ako dahil sa kanilang kapilyuhan. I find it so cute, ewan ko ba sa hormones ko at masyado akong weird. Matapos mag bangayan nina Brandon at Achilles ay minabuti na lang namin na mag ayos ng ilang gagamitin sa party mamaya. Bukod kase sa a-attend ang ilang kaibigan ni Brandon ay pupunta rin dito ang ilang kaibigan namin ni Marius back from High School.

"Yumera naman, hindi ba't sabi ko sa'yo huwag kang gagalaw?"sita ni Brandon ng mapansin niyang nag pupunas ako ng table. Napanguso naman ako dahil 'don.

"Alam mo Bran ang tigas talaga ng ulo niyang girlfriend mo. Pagsabihan mo nga!"Athena said, Brandon immediately took my hand as he lead me towards the nipa hut  a few meters away from the ocean. Busy kase sila sa pag aayos ng tables at ilang decorations habang ako heto nababagot lang kaya naki-usyoso na lamang ako.

"Brandon naman, nababagot na 'ko please kahit mag punas lang ng table pwede?"I pleaded pero ngumiwi lamang ito at binuhat ang isang bucket ng bulaklak mula sa aking gilid.

"Stay here and arrange these flowers kung nababagot ka, huwag na matigas ulo Mera."he said before he kissed my lips and left. Napabuntong hininga na lamang ako at kasabay ng kuha ko sa isang bulaklak. Haist, no choice tayo kundi ang mag flower arrangement baka pagalitan pa 'ko ni Brandon mahirap na.

꘎♡━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━♡꘎

Saktong hapon na ng maayos namin ang lahat, mula decorations, tables, pagkain at beverages. The party will begin at five that is why Perci instructed me that I should change to my dress before it starts at ganun din si Brandon. Natatawa pa nga sila dahil nag babangayan pa kami ni Brandon bago kami tuluyang pumasok sa aming cabin para mag ayos. After I took a bath I hurriedly went to my make-up table and dried my hair up before putting some light make-up. Saktong sinusuklay ko ang aking buhok ng lumabas narin si Brandon mula sa bathroom na nag pupunas pa ng basa nitong buhok.

"Hon, Perci said that we should wear those matching clothes kaya 'yan ang gamitin mo."diretsong sabi ko rito habang nag lalagay ako ng earrings.

"Where?"

"Yung nasa kama."matapos kong mailagay ang aking hikaw ay mabilis kong kinuha ang white dress na bigay sakin ni Perci kanina, well the dress is cute dahil baby collar nag tabas nito not to mention they really chose a matching pair along with Brandon. Nang maayos ko ang aking dress ay bumaling ako kay Brandon na sa ngayon ay inaayos ang kanyang sinturon, I silently took our couple shirt saka siya nilapitan at dinamitan ito.

"Hey I can do it myself,"he insisted pero ngumiwi ako at nginitian ito. Damn, he looks so handsome in this shirt. Kung hindi lang siya ngumisi ay talagang hindi na ako mababalik sa aking katinuan dahil sa sobrang pag titig ko rito.

"Hey, stop doing that baka masundan 'yang si baby."napalo ko siya dahil sa kapilyuhan nito.

"Sira! Alam mo tara na baka inaantay na nila tayo 'dun!"sita ko rito, Brandon smirked before he held my hand and guided me towards the door.

"Let's go hon."

So ayon, our party started and it went smoothly, Brandon invited Kevin, Jake, Richard, Leon, Ferris, and even Karlie along with Miho, Hunter and yes Shamara is here. Nahihiya pa nga ako sa kanya dahil hindi ko alam ang gagawin ko if ever na kausapin niya 'ko, I mean I still found myself being awkward around Shamara dahil nagsinungaling ako rito na hindi ko kilala si Brandon when we first met. Pusang gala naman, anong sasabihin ko?

"Yumera."and here we go, heto na━upon hearing that voice I know that I am really fucked up. Ngunit wala na akong nagawa at hinarap siya, Shamara is smiling at me while sipping her champagne.

"Sige Mera, maiwan ko muna kayo."Perci said, gusto ko pa nga siyang pigilan pero pinanlakihan niya ako ng mata kaya napangiti na lamang ako kay Shamara sabay yuko.

"Congratulations Yumera! Magkakababy na kayo ng ulupong na 'yun!"she greeted, namumula naman akong tumango.

"T━Thank you an━d I'm so sorry for lying."I stammered, Shamara chuckled as she tap my left shoulder.

"You don't need to apologize Mera, I understand you. In fact ako dapat ang mag sorry because I made you feel insecure, hence I want you to know that you don't need to feel that because Brandon loves you."she said, napangiti na lamang ako at lumapit ng kaunti sa kanya. My heart felt that warmth upon hearing those words from Shamara━it was somewhat very comforting.

"Look at him, ngayon ko lang siya nakitang ngumiti ng ganyan."she mumbled while staring at Brandon whose now busy talking to Grayson, Achilles and to Leon. As I watch Brandon laugh along with them━I found myself saying, breathtaking...

"That smile is very genuine, very solemn and free. You can really tell that he is in love, alam mo Mera he may love me at first hence that love is not really meant to be━dahil ikaw talaga ang una niyang minahal. You were the first woman who made him feel love and to be loved in return, every memory that you two made is his first."she added.

"Brandon is my best friend, ang akala ko nga rin siya ang mapapangasawa ko but fate is really playful in exchanging cards. We maybe very compatible but our hearts isn't, I belong to someone else and he belongs to you. I wish you all the best. I honestly wants to witness how Brandon will create his own family WITH YOU Yumera."ewan ko kung bakit pero natagpuan ko na lamang ang aking sarili na nag pupunas ng luha dahil nakakatouch magsalita itong si Shamara.

"Hey! Why are you crying?!"she exclaimed kaya natawa ako.

"Sira, hormones ko 'yan pano ba naman kase nakakaiyak 'yung speech mo!"I said, Shamara pulled me into a tight hug as I also embrace her.

"Hush now Mera, baka pagalitan ako ng future hubby mo!"she joked as we both laugh in her naughty remarks.

Pero teka, future hubby?
