This Unexpected Love

Chapter 9

Ring

Dumaan muna kame ni Kevin sa bahay para mag-ayos. Tama ako, pupunta kame sa parents niya to have dinner. It means we need to pretend like a real couple, like a happy wedded couple. Great. I just wore my geometric dress and flipflops and get our wedding ring from my mini drawer and wear it. I don't usually wear it kase baka may maka-alam. As far as I know, hindi pwedeng malaman ng lahat na nakapag-asawa na ang isang youngest successful and hottest bachelor of this lifetime.

When I reached the living room ay agad din kaming umalis ni Kevin and went to his parents's home. He stopped the car infront of their house's door at bumaba kame. Before we knock at the door, he looked at me.

"Ready?" He asked pertaining kung ready na ba kong umacting. I nod at him and he started knocking and as we heard footsteps Kevin immediately looked at me like asking if it's okay if he put his hands a t my waist. I just gave him a nod and he placed his hand at my waist kasabay ng pagbukas ng pinto at bumungad sa amin ang mom niya.

"Finally you guys are here!" Sabi ni tita and pinapasok niya kame.

"Of course Mom, we came early kase gusto sana ni uhm, ni Denise na tumulong." He said and looked at me and smiled sweetly to me to make his parents believe that were a happy couple. How nice. I also smiled at him as I answer his mom.

"Ah yes tita. Gusto ko man lang po kase tumulong if ever na may maitutulong po ako." Sabi ko at tumango-tango pa.

"You two really look good together. I'm happy na nagustuhan at natutunan niyo kaagad mahalin ang isa't-isa." I awkardly smiled. Nagustuhan ang isa't-isa? Oh you must be kidding me.

"Mom, let's go na baka gutom na si Denise." Kevin interrupted to let the awkwardness fade away. Maybe ako lang ang naa-awkward pero duh.

As we ate ay naging masaya ang kainan. Mabait naman pala ang parents ni Kevin, they want me to call them Mom and Dad also. Kevin and I acted really sweet as if were happily married and I feel so guilty about it. Lalo na't mabait ang parents niya. Maybe it was just really my dad who's evil in my life. After eating ay nanunuod kame kay Kevin at sa Dad niya while they're playing chess at nagtatawanan pa kame everytime na nag-aasaran sila.

"Denise iha, can I talk to you for a moment?" Lumapit saken ang mom ni kevin as she whispered.

"Sure po ti- I mean Mom." She smiled at me at nagdiretso kame sa garden nila. She sat down sa bench na meron dito sa garden and so do I. Ano kayang pag-uusapan namen?

"Iha I'm very happy na natuloy ang kasal niyo ni Kevin. You really suit for my son and my son also suit you. Basta iha, you're very welcome to our family. And if you have problems or anything, remember that you could always come to us okay? Anak na din kita Denise, that's why I support you." Napa-ngiti ako, nakaka-touch somehow ang makinig to lalo na at si Mom ni Kevin. Ang family nila Kevin, they look so intimidating, lalo na si Kevin but I don't know na they are this kind pala. Nagkwentuhan pa kame ni Mom (ni Kevin) and after few minutes ay nag-decide na kame ni Kevin na umuwi.

"Mom we better get going, Denise needs to rest." Kevin said as he kissed his mom's forehead. I can't believe na may ganto pa palang anak. Akala ko si... Akala ko si Jos nalang ang ganito sa mom niya. I sighed and tried my best to forget about what I think and smiled.

"Ah Mom, Dad thank you po ha." Sabi ko naman at agad ngumiti pabalik ang mom at dad.

"Sure iha, sumbong mo saken si Kevin pag sinaktan ka ha" napatawa kame sa joke ni Dad at tuluyan na kaming nagpaalam. As we enter the car ay back to normal ang lahat. We don't talk too much if not needed and the awkward atmosphere came back.

I opened my eyes at nilibot ang tingin ko sa kwarto. Oh wait, this is not my room. What the? Napatingin ako sa tabi ko at wala namang tao. If I'm not mistaken, I'm at Kevin's room. Ngayon lang ako naka-pasok sa room niya and his room looks very neat. White and black lang ang motif and even the bed is so fluffy. Tinignan ko ang oras sa side table, it's already 6:30am. Time for me to get ready for school. I fixed myself and get down para mag-breakfast and holy heavens Kevin's still here.

I don't know kung io-open ko ang topic tungkol sa pagtulog ko sa kwarto niya kagabe. Ugh. This is just so awkward. I don't know how to start asking him. Wait, ohmygosh. Did we slept together? Namula ako sa naisip ko at nagsimula ng sumubo.

"You slept at my room last night because if you didn't notice, your door's locked and I don't know where your keys are while the spare keys, uhm I don't know where they are. And no, we didn't slept together, I slept at the couch." Direstong sabi ni Kevin na lalong ikinapula ng pisngi ko. How did he know that those are the questions on my head?

"Looks like you need explanation that's why I explained. Eat your food now, then we'll go." He said at tumayo na para ata mag-ready na kase mago-office na siya. I sighed when he left the room. Goodness. Di nagtagal ay umalis na kame ni Kevin and he drives me off at my school.

"Thanks." I told him like what I usually said pag nababa na ko ng sasakyan niya pag hinahatid niya ko. Dumiretso na ko sa loob and attend my classes. After our last subject for the day ay nagkita kame ni Aly sa caf.

"Grabe ang hassle." She said referring sa projects nila to end up this sem.

"Oo nga eh. It's like you're drowning in this deep school paperworks." I exclaimed at nagpatuloy sa pagsusulat. I was shocked when she harshly place her hands sa table and get my right hand kung saan nakalagay ang singsing namen nung kinasal kame which I forgot to remove. Damn.

"You're married?!"
