Erielle's POV
I didn't tell anyone about the incident that happened. Only Styx knew about it. I don't want them to worry about me. And also, I am safe now. It caused me fear, yes, but it doesn't harm me at all. Nothing to tell, the story already ends within that night.
"Where to?" Styx asked me as soon as I closed the shotgun seat's door.
"To Mom and Dad. I would like to tell them about their grandchild," I looked down on my tummy and softly caressed it. "I swear, if they're here, they will be so glad because finally, their wish to have a grandchild came true this early." I paused to face him. "Ah, wait, sa flower shop pala muna tayo." I flashed a small smile.
"Okay," he said before leaning on me.
I gasped when he moved closer. Our position is really making me feel so uncomfortable. I was about to push him away when I heard a clicking sound.
"You forgot to fasten your seatbelt, Elle," he said then later on chuckled when he saw my face.
"Ah, yeah." I unconsciously nod and faked a laugh.
Idiot, Elle! What were you thinking, huh?
"Let's.. ahm... go?"
"Yes, of course!" he laughed again before starting the engine.
The whole ride was quite at peace. No one dares to talk. When we dropped by the flower shop, I bought a dozen of roses, my Mom's favorite, and two scented candles.
As soon as we arrived at the memorial, Styx told me to come first so I could have my time alone with my parents.
"Hi, Mom, Dad, I brought you some roses." A sad smile formed onto my lips as I stared at their marbled tombstones. "How are you doing? Are you both at peace?"
I lighted up the candles before seating on the grass. I looked up as I heave a sigh to prevent my tears from falling against my cheeks.
"Magiging Lola't Lolo na po kayo. I am now carrying your grandchild. Sayang nga po at... w-wala na kayo para gabayan ako... I miss you two, so much," I wiped the tears that escaped from my eyes.
I am silently calming myself down when I saw Styx walking towards my direction holding a picnic basket. My brows furrowed as he goes near me, thinking why is he holding such thing.
He tilted his head and scratched his neck a little. "I was planning to bring you at the beach so you could escaped the fear which caused you that night that's why I have this," he puts down the basket beside me and bring out the blanket from it. "Pero ayos na rin kahit dito na lang, payapa naman."
"Thank you, Styx." I said after he helped me seat on the picnic blanket.
"Wala 'yon, maliit na bagay. Alam mo kung ano ang malaki?" he then laughed. "Iyong kagwapuhan ko malaking bagay, kaya malaki ring kawalan."
Kunwari ay suminghap ako. "Grabe ang lamig. Hindi ako na-inform na presko pala rito, 'no?"
"At least 'di maiinit," he reasoned and gave me a smirk.
"Sumasakit ang ulo ko nang wala sa oras dahil sa 'yo, Styx."
"Sorry na pala." Inayos niya ang pagkunot ng noo ko. "Smile ka na..." he then pinched my both cheeks upward. "Kawawa si baby kapag gan'yan ang magiging itsura n'ya. Baka pa matakot 'yong doktor kapag nailabas mo na siya." he joked.
Inis na tinanggal ko ang kamay niya sa pisngi ko at kumuha ng pagkain mula sa picnic basket.
"Who the hell says that I am ugly, huh?" tila bata na ani ko.
