Blessing

I was woke up ng tumunog ng malakas ang cellphone ko...I answer it without reading the name

"Hello?"

"Aurie!" napadilat ako sa boses sa kabilang line I check the name and it was Cha

"Cha...it's early what do you need?"

Pagod na pagod ako at halos umaga na ako nakauwi galing sa ibang bansa para sa photoshoot at ilang trabaho na din

"Aurie...where are you? Can we talk please"

"Can we do it later Cha? Im so tired"

"Please Aurie im pregnant" biglang nilipad ang antok ko at napatayo na din ako dahil sa sinabi nya

"Hoy Cha! are you kidding me?"

"I wish I am" she was crying siguro ay totoo nga ang sinabi nya

"Where are you?"

"Nasa condo ko"

"Alright wait me there ok, hey cha don't you dare do something stupid"

"Yes Aurie wait you here" I drop the call and nag prepare na ako, malayo layo din ang tower ni Cha mula sa tower ko, I wish na walang paparazzi sa paligid ayaw ko sila ientertain ngayon, nagpasalamat ako na pagdating ko sa tower ni Cha ay kokonti ang tao sa paligid siguro ay gabi na kaya umakyat kaagad ako sa floor nya...

"Cha" her nose is red and her eyes were puffy, magkasabay kaming naupo sa sofa saka ko sya hinarap

"Aurie what should I do?"

"Ilang months na?"

"Two months"

"Just tell your parents Cha, legal age ka naman na eh saka may sarili kana trabaho im sure na—-" I stop from talking ng may maalala ako "Cha wait..."

"Yes it was Ian's child" sya na ang nagsabi alam siguro nya ang iniisip ko, natampal ko naman yung noo ko sa sinabi nya

"Did he already know?"

"Hindi pa, nasa US si Ian ngayon for business trip he will be back this saturday" nag isip ako it was two days from now

"Aside from me sino pa ang nakakaalam?"

"Wala na...Aurie im scared, what if hindi matanggap ni Ian?"

"Then he was not a man if he do that, come on fix yourself and let's see your parents...you don't have to be afraid of being pregnant it's a blessing Cha, and about Ian im sure he will do his obligation" ngumiti naman sya sakin at nagbihis na, I drive her to their home tama naman na nandoon ang parents nya good timing, hinawakan ko sya sa kamay

"Oh Hi napasyal kayo?" Tita asked us

"Uhm yes tita kumusta po?"

"Ok naman hija ikaw hija kumusta? Balita ko ay successful and project nyo sa europe"

"Ah yes po"

"Mom I need to tell you something" Cha nervously said

"About what?"

"Please dad too?"

"Oh sure sweetie"

Inaya kami ni tita sa library kung nasaan ang daddy ni Cha he smile and greeted us bago kami naupo sa harap nya

"What is it Cha?" Her dad asked her

"Mom...Dad...im pregnant po" napayuko naman si Cha I know she was afraid that her parents might get upset, but to our surprise ay ngumiti lang ang mga ito

"Good thing mabibigyan nyo na kami ng apo, where is Ian? I need to talk to him about the wedding" her dad

"Dad nasa US pa si Ian he will be back this saturday, I will just inform him"

"Sure...akala ko naman kung anong sasabihin mo"

"Kumain naba kayo ng dinner?" her mom asked habang nakangiti

"Hindi pa mommy"

"Oh sya lets have dinner"

Nagkwentuhan lang kami habang kumakain kami ng dinner, masayang masaya ang parents nya at syempre ako din naman si Cha ay ngumiti lang sakin

"By the way Aurie kelan ka dumating?" Tita asked

"Kanina po mga 3am"

"Ganun ba naku siguradong may jetlag ka pa"

"Oo nga mommy I feel guilty ginising ko si Aurie"

"Naku Cha, anyway Aurie dito kana lang kaya matulog"

"Naku tita ok lang po. Sanay naman po ako sa flights saka kailangan ko po kasing kausapin din si mommy"

"Ah ganun ba, sige"

After mag dinner ay nagpaalam ako kina Cha, while driving ay dumaan muna ako sa verandah my ever favorite coffee shop

"Hi one cup of Caramel Machiato" I handed her Cash as payment when she look up she look so surprised

"Miss Aurie?"

"Hi"

"Pwede po magpa picture?"

"Sure" I smile at the camera

"Thank you po" she processed my order may dalawa lang na nasa dulong upuan kaya di nila kami napapansin it's already 10pm kaya konti na din yung tao dito...

"Thank you Miss" I smile at her at lumabas na din ng shop, I call mom to asked if she was home kung wala ay sa condo na lang ako uuwi

"Hey Aurie its late"

"Mom are you home?"

"Yes"

"I'll go there now"

"Akala ko ay bukas ka pa uuwi?"

"Eh natapos agad yung shoot and I really want to go home"

"Ok see you"

I drop the call and drive all the way to our home
