NIGHT WITH THE C.E.O. "Magkaka Baby na tayo Nate." Tumulo narin ang luha ko, dahil sa saya na nararamdaman ko. "Hindi! hindi ito pwede." Sabi niya at kumalas sa pagkakayakap ko. "A---anong ibig mong sabihin? anong sinasabi mong hindi pwede?" Nalilitong tanong ko, mukha kasing nabibigla lang siya. Nilukot niya ang papel at itinapon ito. "Nate ano ba---" "Abort it, abort that Baby." Sabi niya habang nakaturo ito sa aking tiyan. "No Nate! This is my Baby... this is your Baby... Why? why Nate." Kanina saya ang nararamdaman ko ngunit ngayon ay pagkalito. "Why Nate? Anak mo ito. Huhuhu." "I---im getting married." Mahinang sabi niya, pumapatak din ang luha sa kanyang mga mata. "Please Nate, wag mo hilingin na ipa-abort ang anak mo. Dugo't laman mo ito." Itinuro ko ang tiyan ko, kinuha ko ang kamay niya at pilit na pinahawak sa aking tiyan. "Nararamdaman mo naman diba? anak mo ito.... Nate nagmamakaawa ako sayo, mahalin mo naman ang anak mo kahit wag na ako. Nate kung gusto mo yung dati nalang ang gawin natin, itago mo nalang ulit ako, itago mo nalang ulit kami at pangako walang makakaalam na may anak tayo." Umiiyak na sabi ko. Desperada na kung desperada, wala akong pakiaalam. "I'm sorry Clara." Isang malakas na sampal ang pinakawalan ko sa kanya. "Sa susunod wag puro sarap ang isipin mo, sa susunod wag kang pasok ng pasok kung hindi mo naman pala kayang panindigan yang pagkalalaki mo... Hinding-hindi ko ipapa-abort ang anak ko. Kung hindi mo siya kayang tanggapin, wala akong magagawa." Tumalikod ako sa kanya. Pinunasan ko ang luha ko ngunit hindi parin ito tumitigil sa pagtulo. "I don't wanna see you anymore Nate, ayaw ko ng makita ang lalaking pinag-alayan ko ng lahat, ayaw ko ng makita ang lalaking minahal ko at higit sa lahat, ayaw ko ng makita ang lalaking gustong pumatay sa walang kamuang-muang na sanggol. ⚠WARNING: PLAGIARISM IS A CRIME
