The Modern Belle Kabanata 26
Malalaking hakbang ang ginawa ko papasok sa opisina ni William. Limang araw na siyang hindi umuuwi sa mansion pagkatapos ng gabing iyon. Tinanong ko si Gustav kong nasa labas ba ng bansa si William dahil hindi man lang ito tumatawag sa akin o kahit magpadala man lang ng mensahe pero hindi naman daw at nasa kanyang opisina lang kung kaya’t nagpasya ako ngayon na bisitahin siya. I told Gustav not to tell him because it’s a surprise visit. Nagulat ang kanyang secretary ng dire-diretso ang pasok ko sa loob ng opisina ni William. Gustav and the other securities stayed outside of Wil's office.Kumunot ang aking noo ng walang tao pagpasok ko pero may coat na nakapatong sa swivel chair. Sinarado ko ang pintuan at naglakad papunta sa kanyang mesa. I looked around and saw a luxury bag on the sofa. Napalingon ako sa kaliwang parte ng opisina ng may marinig akong kakaibang boses. Habang papalapit ako dito ay lumalakas ang tunog na naririnig ko. Kinakabahan man ay lumapit ako dito at nalamang may

Hindi agad ako nakatulog ng gabing yun. Hindi ako tumuloy na makipagkita kina Snow dahil biglang sumama ang aking pakiramdam. Kung kaya't sa halip na magpahatid ako sa cafe ay dumaan na lang ako sa convenience store upang bumili ng almond nuts. Ewan ko at bigla akong nag-crave nito. Sa sasakyan pa lang ay sinimulan ko na itong kainin. And I can't describe how satisfactory it was. Alas diez ng umaga na ako nagising kinabukasan at tinatamad akong bumangon sa kama. My personal helper brought my breakfast in my room. Sa kwarto na ako kumain. Pagkatapos kong maligo ay nakatulog ulit ako. I can't believe how I can be a sleeping monster these past few weeks. Lumabas ako ng kwarto suot ang puting bestida. My hair is in a messy bun. Wala ako sa mood na ayusin ang ayos ko. The securities are just watching me professionally. Sinalubong ako ni Gustav sa living room at tinanong kung saan ang punta ko. I dismissed him saying I'm only going to the kitchen to get some ice cream I bought the other

Sinabihan ko si Gustav na huwag ng ipaalam kay William na pupunta kami ngayon sa clinic ni Doc Nathan. Hindi agad siya pumayag dahil trabaho niya raw ang i-report ang lahat ng ginagawa ko o ang lahat na pupuntahan ko. I rolled my eyes at him in annoyance and told him that I don't want William to get worried about me. Kailangan ko lang pumunta sa clinic upang makasigurado na maayos lang ako. Eventually, pumayag rin naman siya na huwag ng ipaalam kay William ang pagpunta namin sa clinic. Sandali lang din naman ako sa loob dahil ako lang ang naka-schedule sa buong umaga, much to my advantage.Doc Nathan gave me pregnancy test kits. I tried it three times and he even took a sample of my blood too to make it more accurate. And the results are all the same. It's positive. I am pregnant!“Congratulations, Mrs. Cavanaugh. It's still in its early weeks, so you need to be more careful. Please refrain yourself from stressful things because it won't be good for you. The first trimester is the mo

“What do you think you are doing?” Malamig na tanong ni William sa akin ng hawakan ko ang kanyang braso upang pigilan siya sa pag-alis. I can see how his vascular arms protruded. “Can you please stay?” mahina kong sabi. Kakarating niya lang at aalis na naman siya. He looked at my tiny hand on his arm looking so disgusted. Napabitaw ako sa pagkakahawak sa kanya at sinalubong ang kanyang malamig na tingin. I don't understand. Alam kong nakakatakot siyang tao sa unang pagkikita pa lang namin pero sa ilang buwan na pagtira ko dito sa mansion ay kailanman ay hindi niya ako pinagbuhatan ng kamay. Hindi niya niya rin ako pinagsasalitaan ng masama pero bakit bigla na lang siyang naging ganito kalamig sa akin ngayon. We were fine. We were doing well. We even made love and he was sweet and thoughtful to me. Pero bakit biglang nagbago ang ihip ang ng hangin?“I love you, Wil. I really am. Hindi ko alam kung bakit ayaw mong maniwala pero yun ang totoo. Please give me a chance to live you.” I sa

Napatampal ako sa aking noo ng magising na nag-iisa na naman ako sa kwarto. Pagkatapos naming magniig ni William ay nakatulog ako. And now, I'm alone in my bed when I woke up. It's past lunch now.I dialed the kitchen's number and asked for food to be delivered to my room. I looked at myself and thank goodness, William dressed me up.I got off in my bed and looked at my phone. There was no message for him so I sent him one asking where he is. I didn't expect him to reply immediately so I put down my phone after sending him a message. A knock on my door came after a while. It was Lydia, my personal helper. “Good day, Mrs. Cavanaugh. Here's your food.”“Thank you, Lydia,” I said as she handed me the tray with a crab soup and a Caesar salad I requested. She nodded and distanced herself from me and patiently waited on the corner side of the room. I told her she can sit down on the sofa but she firmly declined my offer. Hindi ko na siya pinilit at hinayaan siya sa kung ano ang gusto niya

If you're that busy, then, it's fine with me. I walked out of the room right after William confirmed it.Ilang beses ko siyang gustong kausapin pero hindi ako makahanap ng tamang tiempo at palagi siyang abala. Kahit limang minuto lang ay hindi niya maibigay sa akin. Nauubos na ang aking katiting na pasensya sa kanya. Kasalukuyang nasa isang French restaurant ako ngayon at takam na takam na kumakain ng carbonara. I've been craving it last night. Kaya ngayong umaga ay sinabihan ko si Gustav na kakain ako sa labas. He's on the left side of the room together with my securities who were scattered outside and inside of the room. I burped after drinking my water. Busog na busog ako at ngayon naman ay inaantok na. I can't understand being pregnant. It's making me crave for any type of food and my emotional being is so unstable. Tulad na lang ngayon, papasok si Cassandra at William sa restaurant na kinakainan ko, walang akong ibang maisip kundi silang dalawa na nakalagay sa malaking kawa

Flashes of the camera nearly blinded my eyes as soon as my steps landed outside the extravagant building where the party was held. Men in black were now busy protecting me from the hungry paparazzi. One of the men in black guided me to the limousine and carefully secured me inside. When they think that everything is secured, they go inside the car and give a signal to the assigned driver to start the engine and go. "Boss, she's already with us. I made sure that she's safe and does not have a single scratch." said the leader of the men in black named Gustav. I just made a face and scrolled my phone instead. "Yes, boss. Right away." I hear him say, "Ma'am, the boss wants to talk to you," he says as he hands me his phone which I only ignore. "M-ma'am, the boss wants to talk to you." he repeatedly said in a nervous tone. I arched my eyebrow and glared at him. "Tell him, I don't want to talk to him. He's an ass. Why would he leave me on that suffocating party?" I said in an irritating

Shock is an understatement after hearing him. Is he out of his mind? He just dropped it like a normal thing to do for goodness sake!"Pardon Mister?''"William. I'm William Cavanaugh," he answered. I am not asking for your name, dumbass!"Marry me and I'll help you.""And when did the marriage become the solution to resolve my father's problem?" I asked frustratingly."How naive." he taunted. "You do not know how lucky you are to my proposition. And besides, how can you just trust a man? Does your father forgot to tell you to never trust just anyone?" his eyebrows creased."You mean, including you?" I sarcastically answered. A sly smile came out on him. Oh, shit! Why does he have to look so hot? This is not good."Unfortunately, I am not just anyone Miss Magno. I'm gonna be your husband so soon and gonna be the father of your children.""You're unbelievable Mister! And how sure are you that I will accept your ridiculous offer?""Let's just say that you don't have any choice but to get
