"Helius!" Imbis ay sabi ko.

How did he know that we're here?

"It's not what you're thinking." I tried to explain pero mas lalo lamang dumilim ang mukha nito.

"Ha-ha! It's not what you're thinking ha!" I heard a voice of a woman mocking what I said. Nilingon ko ito and I saw Viviene standing beside Helius. My eyes are too focus on Helius that I didn't notice Viviene's presence o sadiyang hindi lang talaga mahalaga ang presensiya nito para mapansin ko.

My heart suddenly ache. Geez! Bakit ba pag ganitong sitwasyon, laging nandito ang babaeng to. Why does she always witness every confrontation I had with Helius? Hfft!

Nakakainis otor ah!

"Helius, please. Believe me. It's nothing and besides Lucios is my-" I wasn't able to finish my word when Lucios suddenly grabbed my hand. I looked at him and he has this disapproving look.

Okay, I get it. Hindi naman ako tanga para hindi maintindihan that obviously Lucios doesn't like the idea of me telling them about our relationship with each other, him being my brother. Dami ring arte ng lalaking to, kitang nasa alanganin na ako.

I saw Viviene cling her hands to Helius' arms. She's holding him like she own him. Nakatitig lang ako sa braso niyang hawak ni Viviene and when he noticed na nakatingin ako sa bandang iyon, I saw him smirked. He's happy that I'm hurt, he's happy that my heart is bleeding because of jealousy.

I want to hurt Viviene. I want to slap her and make her understand that Helius is mine but I can't. Mas lalong magagalit sa akin si Helius and I won't let that happen. Kung kailangan kung magpaka-tanga at magpaka-martyr gagawin ko.

"Stop lying, Kreisha!" Pangingialam na naman ni Viviene sa usapan namin. Paubos na talaga ang pasensya ko sa babaeng ito. Konteng-konte na lang at masasampal ko na to. Makita niya ngayon eh!

"Stop meddling with their problem, Viviene." I heard Lucios spoke at my back. I was surprise that he defended me from his friend. Pero naalala ko, kuya ko nga pala siya, marapat lamang na ipagtanggol niya ako no.

"Wh-at— are you for real Lucios? Tinrydor mo na nga si Helius pati ba naman ako? God Lucios! Wala ka na bang utak? Defending that cheap bitch over me whose been with you the whole time you needed a friend, ako na kasama mo at katulong mo sa paghahanap ng nawawala mong kapatid? Gosh I ca-" Hindi na niya natapos pa ang sasabihin niya ng padabog na lumapit sa akin si Helius at hinawakan ako sa braso. He's holding me so tight at sigurado akong namumula na ang braso ko sa higpit ng pagkakahawak niya roon.

"STOP. CALLING. KREISHA. A. BITCH!" Lucios said every word in a low and deep voice, emphasizing every word. Hinablot niya ako mula sa pagkakahawak ni Helius kaya napasama ako sa kaniya. Tumingin ako sa kaniya and I could see the anger lingering in both of his eyes. Lucios is fuming mad.

"And now you're defending her?! Wala—" That was the last word I heard from Viviene nang bigla na lang akong hinila ni Lucios palabas ng restaurant.

We're literally making a scene there.

"Lucios, it's okay." I smiled at him, assuring him that I'm okay.

Pero kahit anong smile ko, hindi siya ngumingiti and I think he really swallowed the words Viviene told him.

I feel sad.

And guilty.

"Okay, I'm sorry! Look, I never want to destroy your friendship with them but it happened and I'm really really sorry about it. You, you don't need to defend me all the time. Kaya ko na ang sarili ko and I'm strong enough to defend myself." I saw him stopped walking kaya huminto na rin ako.

"And you're thinking about that, Kreisha?! Ngayon pa talaga na nalaman kong magkapatid tayo, huh?! Ngayon pa ba kita pababayaan? No baby, no! As long as I'm alive, I would defend you kahit kanino pa man. Even with my friends. Fuck! I would do everything for you, little sis!"

A tear escaped from my eyes dahil sa mga sinabi niya. My kuya. He's willing to do everything for me. The thing that I longed for months now. The thing that I longed to feel from Helius. And here comes my brother whose willing to do everything for me.

My brother providing me the assurance that I longed from my husband is so heart melting. Kung sana noon ko pa siya nakilala, baka hindi na ako humantong sa ganitong sitwasyon.

"Ku-ya..." I sobbed as I hugged him inside the car. His car is fully tinted kaya I'm comfortable hugging him even the thought of Helius and Viviene around.

"Finally, I found you. I hope this isn't a dream, little sis." he said at nakita kong may tumulong luha sa kaniyang mga mata. Lucios is crying.

I never thought that this day would happen. Napagkamalan ko pa talaga siyang may gusto sa akin noon.

"It's not a dream, kuya. I assure you, kahit sampalin pa kita para masigurado mo."

We went to the hospital where the doctor that he personally know is working.

He do some test on me and we're now waiting for the results. My heart is pounding heavily and my hands are shaking. I'm nervous! Mabuti nga at nandito si Lucios sa tabi ko at kahit papaano napapakalma ako.

Kung ako lang siguro mag-isa ang nagpunta rito, siguro nahimatay na ako sa sobrang kaba.

"Lucios, what if it's positive?" I asked para kahit papaano ma divert ang atensyon ko.

"Then, congratulations!" I looked at him angrily and he just laughed. I'm freaking serious here tapos tatawanan niya lang ako. Geez!

"Seriously, you need to tell Helius. Kahit ano pang gawin mo, he's still the father and he has all the rights para malaman ang tungkol sa anak niyo, sabay niyo yang ginawa kaya dapat pareho niyong panindigan." He added after I gave him murderous stares.

"Hindi niya nga alam na may nangyari sa amin eh!" pagpapaliwanag ko habang nakabusangot. Totoo naman eh, hindi niya alam na may nangyari sa amin.

"Kahit na!"

Bumukas ang pinto at iniluwa noon ang doctor na sinasabi ni Lucios sa akin. She's holding a paper with her at based on her facial expressions, parang magandang balita ang hatid niya. And if my instinct serves me right then-

"Congratulations, Misis! You're four months pregnant!" I'm right!

Marami pang sinasabi ang doctora na mga do's and dont's na gagawin bago kami umalis. She also reminded me the proper ways to maintain my good health. But my mind is not really absorbing it all. I'm busy thinking kung sasabihin ko ba kay Helius ngayon o hindi.

Inihatid ako ni Lucios sa Villa as what I requested and my decision is final. After many hours of thinking about it, nakapag desisyon na ako. I would tell him.

Before I went out of the car, I heard him say something that makes me flattered more.

"Hey, take care of yourself and the baby. I'm always here. I love you, little sis." I hugged him again and kissed his cheeks. Bumaba na ako at kinuha ang gamit ko.

I waved my hand para mag-paalam sa kaniya and when I turned around, I saw Helius standing in our doorway.

Staring at me dangerously..
