Days passed by, then Celine met us saying that everything went well and they are now preparing for the gender reveal party. My mother suggested that the party should be held at Fabros' villa. Pumayag naman daw ang parents ni Kiel kaya gano'n na lang ka-smooth ang naging usapan tungkol sa venue. Pagdating naman sa pagkain, napag-usapan nila to cater from one of the pricey catering and is well-known within the NCR. "Nag-suggest nga ang daddy mo Kiel. Golf daw sana. Ikaw daw ang titira tapos sa loob ng bola nando'n yung powder color," masayang saad ni Celine.We are here at BGC. Dito na kami pinapunta ni Celine because she had to attend a party nearby. It's convenient for her kaya hindi na kami nagdalawang isip pa ni Kiel."So, if that's the case, we are supposed to rent a golf club?" tanong ko.She nodded continuously."Maganda 'yon, pero ano ang napag-usapan niyo?" tanong ko ulit."At Fabros' villa. Hindi na na-push 'yung golf kasi iniisip nila masyadong malayo. Wala kasing malapit n
Gender reveal party came, nasa baba na si Kiel naghihintay sa akin. I am being conscious right now with my looks since I really felt like I gained weight! I'm not that confident right now with my body no matter how Kiel compliments and assures me of how beautiful I am in his eyes! Yes, he never fails to make me feel like I'm still pretty the same as before. I was just overthinking right now and I can't help it because I'm pregnant and my belly right now is so big. I'm doing my makeup right now. Nakaharap ako ngayon sa vanity mirror ko. Nang matapos sa pag makeup, I decided to let my hair down. I just curl the tip a bit and clip both sides of my hair para naman may dating kahit papano."I'm coming," sigaw ko before spraying another dose of perfume on my dress. Alam kong kanina pa naghihintay si Kiel, halos magi-isang oras na rin. Buti na lang at mayroon siyang mahabang pasensya sa akin kaya kailan man ay hindi siya naiinis sa paghihintay. Besides, before getting married he already k
Maaga kaming umalis sa mansyon ng mga Fabros. May iilang regalo rin agad na ibinigay sila Tita bago kami umalis. I woke up late, so they probably told someone to buy gifts for us. We haven't been able to open it yet so I really don't know what's inside but it's most likely stuff for our son. Narito na kami ngayon sa mall dahil nag-aya si Kiel na mamili ng mga gamit para sa anak namin. Excitement immediately ignited throughout my body and so I am now happily choosing clothes for our son. We are in an infant wardrobe right now. As usual, our baskets were full of white and blue shirts. Naglagay na rin si Kiel ng maraming baby bottled milk and toys. Siya lahat ang pumili niyon dahil busy ako sa damit. I want my son to look like a model too! I'm now picking shirts that match Kiel's taste of fashion so that if ever our son looks exactly like his father, it would be easier to style him the same as his father! Imagining them wearing twining clothes is so cute! Right?!Kiel snake his arms ar
After we ate our breakfast, Kiel drove to our company to sort out things. Hindi n'ya pa sana balak na isama ako, pero nagpumilit ako. I should now stop working, he said. But, I told him I can still do some work. It didn't convince him, though. Dahil oo nga naman, napag-usapan na namin ang tungkol dito noon pa; na kapag malaki na ang tiyan ko, panandalian muna akong titigil sa pagtatrabaho. It just sounds so weird because he kept on pushing for it now. I don't know and I'm not sure, but I really think there's something wrong….. Hindi naman siya ganito mapilit dati. Ngayon lang. Ngayon lang s'ya tila ba may tinatago. "What time are we having our dinner?" tanong ko habang pinagmamasdan siyang busy sa pagbabasa ng mga papers na nasa lamesa n'ya."I already reserved at 8:00 pm," sagot n'ya, hindi man lang inaalis ang paningin sa mga papeles."The same restaurant?" "Yeah. Your favorite," he said in a monotone, nakatuon pa rin sa mga papeles. After the call he had earlier in the morning,
Sa mga nakalipas na araw, bihira na umuwi si Kiel. Kulang na lang ay isipin kong nakalimutan n'yang buntis ako o may asawa s'yang kailangan ng alaga n'ya.The caring Kiel had gone, I don't even know why… I don't understand.I bit my lower lips while we were silently eating together at the dining area. I suddenly felt like I wanted to cry. Wala kasi akong nakitang watermelon sa lagayan ng fruits namin, and I wanted to eat that.Clouded by those thoughts, I didn't even notice that my tears were now flowing down my cheeks. I am also sniffing right now which caught Kiel’s attention.His worried eyes were what I've witnessed. Tinarayan ko lang s'ya at saka ko iniwas ang aking paningin. “What do you want this time?” He said, coldly. Look at him! I thought he was concerned but it turns out he is not.Hindi ko talaga maintindihan kung bakit naging ganito s'ya bigla. Sobrang biglaan talaga! Nakakainis lang dahil mas nagiging emosyonal ako sa mga trato n'ya sa akin lately. Pregnancy really suck
“Oh, my baby! What happened?” Sinalubong ako ng yakap ni mommy. I cried on her shoulder.Kanina nang nagsimulang paandarin ng driver namin ang kotse, tinawagan ko si mommy habang umiiyak. I informed her that I'll be home today. Ganito naman sila ni Daddy noon pa. Tuwing umuuwi ako, and it took me weeks or months to come home, lagi nila akong sinasalubong sa bukana pa lamang ng aming bahay. Pero ngayon, alam kong hindi lang ito dahil sa masaya silang makita ako, bagkus paniguradong nag alala sila sa akin. Tumawag ba naman akong umiiyak, who wouldn't be worried with that.“Mommy, I don't want to see Kiel anymore po.” Patuloy akong humagulgol sa bisig n'ya.I can feel mommy's sigh. “Let's go inside first, okay? We will have a talk,” anyaya n'ya. Wala na akong nagawa kundi ang magpa akay sa kanya. I walked like a lifeless pregnant woman still clinging to my mom.“Hon, get some water for our baby girl,” utos ni mommy kay daddy nang makaupo kami sa sala.Agad namang tumalima sa utos si Dadd
Pagkagising kinabukasan, hindi ko inaasahan na bubungad agad sa akin si mommy.“Ezekiel stayed here last night. Dito na rin namin pinatulog dahil ayaw umuwi. Kawawa naman kung hahayaan namin s'ya sa labas buong magdamag.”You should have let him stay outside. Mataray na saad ko sa aking isipan.“He is still here. Your Daddy is talking to him right now. Nakahanda na rin ang breakfast, sabay-sabay na tayong kakain.”Napanguso ako sa narinig kay mommy at saka paulit-ulit na umiling.“I don't want to see him right now po. Ayaw ko rin po muna s'yang kausapin.” Dahil sabi nga ni mommy, I should not be driven by my emotions dahil makasasakit lang ako ng tao. “We already told him about it and he respects your decision. Promise, he won't force you, darling. Napag usapan na namin iyon kanina. So, let's go?” Anyaya n'ya, kinukumbinsi ako.At dahil alam kong wala naman na akong magagawa, tumango na lang ako at nagpaalam na mag aayos muna at gagawin ang mga pang umagahang ritwal bago tuluyang buma
“Mom, can you help me po with the soup?” Bungad ko kay mommy. Naabutan ko silang dalawa ni dad sa sala na para bang may malalim na iniisip. Nabunutan lang ng tinik ng dumating ako. Both of them immediately smiled, then my mom furrowed her brow, confused with my sudden question.“I'm planning to make a soup for Kiel po. It makes him cope with stress, so…” I shrugged.Muling nabalik ang ngiti sa labi ni mommy. My dad on the other hand chuckled a bit. “Seems like you two had a talk already, hmm?” Mapanuyang saad ni mommy kasabay ng pag akbay sa akin.Nahihiya akong umiling sa kanya at saka nagpagiya papuntang kusina. Nagpaiwan naman si dad sa sala habang panay pa rin ang pagtawa habang nanonood ng TV.“What kind of soup does he want, darling?” Tanong ni mommy habang tulungan kami sa pagkuha ng ingredients sa refrigerator.“Anything that is spicy, mom.”Pagkasabi ko nun, mom then added a chili on the basket where we put all the ingredients we will use. Nang masigurong kumpleto na, nagsim
