WARNING: SPG🔞

Sabi ko noon, ibibigay ko lamang ang sarili ko sa taong alam kong mahal ko at mahal ako. That person who's deserving and worthy to be called as my first. I'm not being sentimental pero naniniwala kasi akong ang bagay na iyon ay ginagawa lamang ng mga taong mag-asawa na. They wouldn't be needing any protection because the ring on the woman's finger is more than enough to protect the woman from any undesirable consequences or pregnancies.

Premarital sex shouldn't be consider as a hobby by anyone who just feels like doing it. Even those in relationship shouldn't first engage into sexual intercourse cuz it's wrong and inappropriate. But of course, sa akin lang iyon dahil kahit ano pa man ang sabihin ko sa ibang huwag gawin ang bagay na iyon hangga't hindi pa sila kasal, wala pa ring mangyayari kung kagustuhan na nila. At least I did my part on advising them not to. I showed and express my care through words. It is up to them if they will take it to heart or let it pass by their ears.

Now, as I felt Chaz soft lips against mine.. I have come to realize I did great in preserving my body for my future husband. His kisses felt insanely different from the kiss I had with Drake. I don't know how to point it out but it was an honest truth that almost made me teary eyed. Para akong sinisilaban sa init na nararamdaman kahit sa simpleng dampi ng labi niya sa akin.

It was soft, and sweet.

Binigyan niya ng distansya ang pagitan naming dalawa. We are still in in front of my door. Hinihingal ako kahit ang totoo'y hindi naman gumalaw ang mga labi namin pareho.

Nagkatinginan kami. "Are you sure about this?" he asked with raspy voice. He was looking down at me, and my hand was still holding his collar.

I clung my hands on to his nape and pulled him closer. I heard Chaz groaned before holding my hip. I let my eyes wandered on his face. This is the fist time we got to be this close, I am taking the opportunity to stared at his sinful face.

Ang kaniyang mga mata'y tila lasing na nag-aabang ng sagot mula sa akin. His well defined jaw appeared to be ruthless and domineering. Malinis ang mukha niya na walang bakas ng tigyawat at pores. I lifted my right hand while the left stayed on his nape.

My fingers run on his face. "I hate you." I said. Kinagat ko ang labi ng muling umalingawngaw ang boses niyang nagsasabing handa siyang bumintis ng ibang babae.

Tumaas ang kilay niya. "Why are you doing this then?"

I looked away and sighed. "I-I want to help your mother, at least. I don't want to be called a useless daughter in law and watch my husband have his child to another woman. Naligtas mo nga si mommy sa sakit niya, konsimisyon naman ang kapalit no'n."

He chucked. Napaatras ako ng bigla siyang humakbang. Tuluyan siyang pumasok sa kwarto ko saka ko narinig ang pagsara niya ng pinto.

"Really, Grace?" he asked with a teasing tone of voice.

My face flushed as I glanced at him. There was a ghost of smile on his lips as his green eyes stared back at me. Nanghahamon iyon.

"Yes. Kung hindi mo pa alam, it is a word to describe grief in bisaya."

"Bisaya.. from your ex yeah?"

I bite my lip. Kunot na ang noo niya na tila may narinig at hindi nagustohan.

"Narinig ko 'yon kay Jenny, hindi kay Drake." I said in a whisper. Mayabang siyang ngumisi. Nawala ang pagkakunot ng noo.

I was taken aback when he suddenly crouched down and buried his face on the hallow part of my neck. Humigpit ang hawak niya sa baywang ko na halos kahit hangin ay wala nang madaanan sa pagitan namin. Napasinghap ako ako sa gulat.

"Tang ina, Grace." I heard him laugh on my skin. "I'm a man of my words but when it comes to you, I ended up being a liar. I've done things I didn't imagine I'll be doing for the rest of my life."

My heart skipped a bit. Ibinuka ko ang sariling labi para doon lumanghap ng hangin dahil tila hindi ako makahinga sa tensyon at kaba. The fact that he's hugging me too tight and his words.. I felt like floating.

"Did you cast a spell on me?" he asked, chuckling.

Chaz lifted his head and our gaze locked. Sa kabila ng kaseryosohan sa mga ito, kababatiran pa rin ng pagkaaliw.

"What spell are you talking about? I am not a witch 'no!" I defended, my cheeks burning from mixed emotions.

The corner of his lips twitch. "You are." he teased. "A cute witch though,"

I gasped and rolled my eyes. I hit his chest. I can now imagine my crimson red face at the moment.

"Cute are for puppy's. There's a big difference between cute and beautiful. Ayaw pang aminin, nagagandahan naman sa akin."

Tinanggal ni Chaz ang kamay sa magkabila kong baywang saka umatras. He surveyed my body shamelessly as if trying to figure out if what I said is true. Napatayo ako ng tuwid saka nagkibit balikat na parang wala lang sa akin. Kahit ang totoo'y halos pigilan ko ang paghinga sa lalim ng kaniyang mga titig.

"Just say it. Wala namang masama kung aamin ka. I'm your wife after all."

He arched a brow. He pouted and laughed. "We have Constitutional Right Against Self-Incrimination. So I choose to not to answer, woman. "

My eyes rounded. Suminghap ako saka siya inis na tinalikuran. "You can't use that against me. We're not on a court!" I hissed.

I can't believe he's really using that line as a response. Wala naman kami sa korte para iyon ang isagot-sagot niya! As I was about to take a step, he stopped me by grabbing my hand. Handa na ang matalim kong tingin ng muli niya akong ipaharap, subalit nabahag ang buntot ko ng sumalubong sa akin ang labi niya.

My words died on his mouth. Chaz was holding my wrist as his other hand were touching my face, angling it. His eyes were closed, thick brows were meeting on the middle. Napaatras ako, halos biguin ng sariling mga tuhod ng sandaling gumalaw ang labi niya. The kiss were making me feel hot and burning that my irises automatically closed. Kusang gumalaw ang labi ko, ginagaya ang ritmo ng kaniya.

He put my hand on his nape and his remained on my waist, holding me close. I let my fingers played with his hair as his kisses is making me weak. I can't help but to shiver when he bite my lower lip. Paulit-ulit niyang kinagat iyon hanggang sa muling marubdob na inataki ang labi ko ng halik. An erotic sound escaped my mouth from the electrifying situation. I was gasping for air when he finally released my swollen lips from his biting.

With my parted lips, I stared back at him. Namumungay ang mata niyang dinungaw ako. Mas lalong namula ang labi niya galing sa halikan.

"You are not beautiful. You're beyond that word, Grace."

My breathing faltered. Warm feeling spread on the dept of my soul with his simple remarks. The way he effortlessly uttered those words is making my heart sunk. Nakakatawa na nagagawa niya akong pasayahin sa nakakalungkot na paraan.

I encircled my two hands on his neck before lifting myself on the air. Pinalipot ko ang mga binti sa baywang niya at agad na pumulot ang kamay niya bilang suporta.

I inched the distance between my lips and his ear to whisper. "Enough with the talk. Let's get down to business, Chaz." I purposely traced my tongue on the lower part of his ear before looking back at his face to see his reaction.

I bite my lips when his green eyes darkened with desire. I smirked. I never know I have this impact with my husband. Sa isang kurap ko'y natagpuan ko na lamang ang aking sariling sinasagot ang maalab na haplos at halik niya. I deserve this right?

We're married. And doing this doesn't violate anyone around us. Even Harry. Sa aming dalawa, ako ang mas may karapatan sa kaniya. He could say that Chaz love him before I came into the picture, hindi roon natatapos ang lahat. Love can be taught and earn. Kumpyansa akong kahit paano'y may nararamdaman na rin sa akin si Chaz. And I am too. Hindi ko man tuluyang maamin...

Holding my buttocks, and my hands on his hair he started walking. Hindi ko na magawang masundan ang ginagawa niya dahil para akong lunod sa sariling kamundohan. As the time progresses, his kisses even become hotter and aggressive. It is making me breathless. I pulled his head closer to mine and return the kiss feverishly. Ibinuka ko ang labi at hinayaang maglakbay ang dila sa loob niya. He groaned when I mimic the rhythm of his tongue inside my mouth. He tasted like alcohol and cigarette?

Nang maramdaman ko ang malambot na kama sa likuran, inilayo ko ang sarili sa kaniya. Hinihingal ako ng maghiwalay ang mga labi namin pareho. His lips landed on my neck and he kissed me there while I tried to catch my breath.

"You smoke, Chaz?" mahina kong tanong. Napadaing ako ng maramdamang tila nanggigil siya sa leeg ko.

I felt him sucking a part of skin which I know will leave a mark tomorrow. Hinayaan ko lang siya sa halip ay pinikit na lamang ang dalawang mata.

"Minsan lang," he answered, still kissing my neck.

"Gaano kadalas 'yang minsan mo?" I brushed my fingers on his hair as he was busy giving me tiny and wet kisses. He didn't answer me instead he kissed me again fully on the lips. It was full of hunger and thirst as I began to catch my breath again.

"Don't make that as a hobby. Smoking is not good for the health. Magkakasakit ka lang." I managed to say in between the exchange of saliva.

"Copy, Ma'am." he responded.

I released a low chuckle. I can feel him smile. Kinulong ko ang mukha niya sa sariling kamay saka siya mapusok na hinalikan. I quickly push his chest and rolled over, changing our positions. This time, I was on top of him.

The kissing continue. Bigla ay parang ang sikip sa silid na kinalalagyan namin. The aircon wasn't enough as I felt my own sweats dripping on my forehead. Hinayaan kong maglakbay ang sariling kamay sa katawan niya. Sa kabila ng panginginig ng mga ito. From his face, to his neck, broad shoulder, to his chest and it went to his harden stomach. Unfortunately, Chaz was fast to stop me from going further. He released my lips and looked at me with drunken expression. Wala siyang sinabi pero mabilis na pinagpalit muli ang posisyon namin.

I suck on my breath when he become more impulsive. Parang naubos ang pasensya niya sa ginawa kong paghaplos. I felt his hand going inside my shirt, to my under boob while the other goes down. Iniwan niya ang labi sa ko at pinagtuunan ng pansin ang dibdib ko.

My chest were heaving up and down from the sensation. I didn't thought I'll experience this kind of feeling on this marriage. Hindi ko inakalang darating kami sa puntong ito ng pagsasama namin. When I felt the cold air touched my skin, that's when I realized my body was left with no clothes. He disregarded it in just a snap of finger. Napamulat ako lalo na ng maramdaman ko ang ginagawa ni Chaz sa dibdib ko.

It's just unfair that he's fully clothed but I am now on my birthday suit.

"Dress, Chaz. Don't be unfair." I voice out my thought.

He leveled his face to mine. "Do you prefer undressing me, wife?" Nanunuksong tanong niya.

Umawang ang labi ko. "Funny that you managed to remove every piece of my clothing but cannot to yourself."

His raspy chuckled vibrated. "Damn," he shook his head and attacked my lips again.

Hindi ako nagpatalo at hinalikan siya pabalik. It lasted for a minute until I felt him moving. Habang may ginagawa siya, hindi pa rin nito pinutol ang halikan sa pagitan namin. When I was losing the air on my lungs, I moved my face. Bumaba ang halik niya sa panga ko pababa sa leeg hanggang sa muling bumalik sa dalawang tutok ko.

I glanced at him and my faced heated. Namumungay ang sariling mata't tila lasing na sa ginagawa niya sa katawan ko. He was sucking my crown while the molding the other like a dough. My eyes felt heavy that I have to close my eyes and let his image played in my mind like a footage.

"Chaz," I chanted his name when I felt his hand on my sensitivity. I bite my lips hard to suppress my moans and groans from his doing.

"Come on, wife. Don't stop yourself."

My toes curled when he inserted a finger inside while still kissing me. I felt my eyes roll back on the sensation especially when he moved it in and out of me. Bumaba ang labi niya sa puson ko.

"Ah!" a long moan erupted from me when I felt him playing with my clit. "C-Chaz, w-what are you doing?"

Something in my stomach is building up. I know I'm close, but I don't want to cum yet. Pero kung magpapatuloy siya sa ginagawa niyang nakakabaliw, alam kong hindi ko na 'to mapipigilan.

"We're consummating our marriage." he answered on my skin.

I whimpered when Chaz added a finger and his pace become ruthless. Few more strokes of fingers and I came undone. Para akong nakakita ng mga bituin sa nangyari. I was panting. Sweats dripping all over and I felt drained but I know this is not yet over.

Hindi ko minulat ang mga mata at pinakiramdaman lang ang gagawin niya. Naghahabol pa ako ng hininga ng maramdaman kong may matigas na bagay sa pagitan ng mga hita ko. My lips parted in surprised when I felt how massive it is. I opened my eyes and I was welcomed with a view that I didn't thought would be more appealing than the stars and moon.

His hair was dump from sweat. Nakaawang ang labi at mabilis ang pinapakawalang paghinga. His eyes appeared to be drunk and his jaw clumped. He looked exactly in the height of pleasure. My heart melted with the thought that I am behind that expression.

Chaz smiled. Both of his hands were supporting his weight above me.

"I'll take it slowly." he assured me.

Maniniwala na sana ako roon lalo na ng dahan-dahan niyang pinasok ang kaniyang kahabaan sa akin. Yumuko siya saka ako hinalikan habang ginagawa iyon. At first, he was indeed taking it slowly. It was painful, excruciatingly painful but because of his kisses, it somehow diverted the pain. He successfully entered me with his maleness, fully. Pakiramdam ko'y punong-puno ako.

Chaz stop kissing me and stared darkly. I gasped when he withdraw his thing and entered it again without a warning. Napasigaw ako sa sakit na dala no'n.

"Slowly, Chaz! Slowly!" I exclaimed with my wrinkled forehead.

He chuckled sexily. "Sorry, makalilimutin pala ako." He bent down and kiss my cheeks.

I hit his chest. Kung may ipupula pa ng pisngi ko sa mga oras na iyon, kasing kulay ng kamatis na siguro ito. He started moving, making me adjust to his size. When he learned that I can finally take his thrust, that's when he began being wild.

My moans echoed on the four corners of the room. I was calling his name repeatedly due to too much pleasure particularly when he's hitting something sensitive. He noticed it cuz he was hitting that spot on every thrust.

"Fuck, fuck, Grace!" he cursed.

Naging mas mabilis ang ginawa niyang pag-ataki. Niyakap ko siya ng mahigpit at doon kumuha ng lakas. I was aware that my fingernails were scratching his skin but it was least of my priority right now.

I don't like it when he's cursing. Hence, at this point his curses sounded sexy and music to my ears in a way that I craved to hear it again and again. I tried clenching my walls, and satisfy smile crept on my face when he once again, cursed with his voice full with pleasure.

I think.. that will be my obsession.

"Chaz!" I breath his name.

Mukha namang nakuha niya ang ibig kong ipahiwatig dahil naging mas mabilis ang paglabas masok niya sa akin. He let my legs hugged his waist as he goes deeper, even further. I can hear the headboard slapping the wall. Palakas ng palakas ang mga ungol na pinakawalan ko sa bawat ataking ginagawa niya.

Chaz crouched down and attended my peak once again. Few more strokes and I felt my own shattering orgasm ripped though me. Not long after, I felt his warm load inside me. I still want to stared at his face and memorize his reaction. Gusto ko pa siyang kausapin ngunit hindi na kinaya ng talupak ng mga mata ko.

I dozed off to sleep with his shaft still inside me.

The sound of the utensils woke me up from my slumber . I check what it was with my half hooded eyes. Si Chaz iyon, kaharap ay tray na naglalaman ng pagkain. He's arranging the utensils. He might've noticed that I'm already awake as he glanced at the bed where I am laying. He looked fresh from bath wearing a white shirt and cargo short.

Umagang-umaga mabango na. Samantalang ako, I reek from sex! I simply touched my skin if I have clothes and I sighed in relief. He dressed me.

"Hey," he called. "G-Good mornin'." Nagkamot ito sa batok saka nag-iwas ng tingin.

Napanguso ako. What now, Chaz? Will you act like nothing happened last night? My heart quenched at my own question. Siguro naman hindi.

"How are you feeling?"

Tinitigan ko lang siya na halatang hindi alam ang gagawin. Hindi man lang ako matignan sa mata. He wet his lower lip and sighed. Our gaze locked for a moment but he instantly tore his.

"I bought foods for brunch," he motioned his hand to the tray. My eyes narrowed. "Do you need anything more? Tell it to me and I'll go downstairs to get it."

Napakagat labi ako sa mga tanong niya. Bumuntonghininga ako bago nagbawi ng tingin. "What is your plan now? We're not certain if.. you'll get me pregnant after last night. Itutuloy mo pa rin ba ang planong maghanap ng ibang babaeng bubuntisin?"

Muli ko siyang hinarap at mariing tinitigan. Umawang ang labi niya. Tila natigilan sa sinabi ko. Wala namang masama roon. Tinatanong ko lang dahil iyon naman ang totoo.

"Hindi na, Grace. You have a point, it was pure stupidity."

I remained my stoic face even though I was already rejoicing inside. Hindi ko iyon pinahalata at nagbaba na lamang ng tingin.

"Beside, I have high faith on my babies. Sa dami no'n, hindi ako mabibigo." pilyong pahayag niya.

Suminghap ako, ramdam ang pagbabaga ng pisngi. He then laughed humorously. Kinuha niya ang tray ng pagkain saka ito linagay sa harapan ko.

"Now eat. I cooked all of these. I was responsible for exhausting you, I should therefore make up for it. Right?"

I glared at him. My checks flushing. I know cuz Chaz laugh even more. "Kidding. Finish this and we'll talk later."

Hinayaan niya akong ubusin ang pagkaing hinandan niya. Muli siyang lumabas ng kwarto para ibalik iyon sa kusina at bumalik din agad. I stayed on the bed as I couldn't move a muscle. Masakit ang katawan ko lalo na ang pagitan ng hita ko.

Habang wala siya, I though of ways to encourage mommy as early as now. Chaz said she's on critical condition. Knowing her disagreement with chemo, and only one thing can change her mind.. that is having grandchild.

"I already called your secretary. Stop worrying about your work and all you have to do is rest." Chaz stated when he comeback.

I nodded. "Aalis ka na?" My eyes narrowed at his attire. Iyon pa rin naman ang suot niya, I wonder if he'll leave for work?

"I'll stay. Hindi ako aalis." sagot niya saka umupo sa paanan ng kama.

Napangiti ako, pero agad ring binura ng makitang nakatitig siya. Nang araw na iyon, nanatili si Chaz sa kwarto ko. he assisted me, bought me foods and even took care of me. Si Manang Remmy ay hindi ko nakita ng araw na iyon dahil hindi naman ako lumabas ng kwarto. When the night came, Chaz decided to sleep beside me. Sa ganoong paraan natapos ang araw ko

The next day, it started with Chaz around. Si Manang ay halata ang katuwaan ng makitang sabay kaming bumaba ni Chaz.

"Hala kumain na kayo. Handa na ang hapag." she started.

I smiled. "Thank you po."

Manang smiled and left us. Chaz and I shared the foods she prepared. Pinagtalunan pa namin ang pagpunta ko sa opisina dahil gusto niyang ihatid ako, na hindi ko pinabuluanan.

"I'll meet with ate later. Kung ihahatid mo ako, wala akong gagamiting sasakyan." I reasoned out.

"Call me. Ihahatid kita." he countered, hugging my waist. Nasa gitna kami ng sala at sa halip na tumulak na sa trabaho, heto kami nagtatalo.

I rolled my eyes. "You don't need to. Kaya nga ako may sariling sasakyan para mapuntahan ko ang mga lugar na gusto kong puntahan."

He groaned and buried his face on my neck. "Ayaw mo no'n, kasama mo akong puntahan ang mga gusto mong puntahan?" pag-uulit niya sa sinabi ko.

Humalakhak ako saka pabiro siyang sinabunutan. He looked at me, mustering a hurt expression. Lukot ang mukha't nagpapaawa. His red lips were pouting.

"Seryoso nga kasi. Pagkatapos nito, you'll be my full time driver!" I wiggled my eye brows.

He sighed heavily, feigning defeat. "Fine. Just this one."

Lumawak ang ngisi ko. "Thanks!"

We headed to our workplace separately. Bago tuluyang magpunta sa opisina, dumaan muna ako sa pharmacy at bumili ng dalawang pregnancy kit. I put it inside my back and drive the way to the D.S Corp. Ginugol ko ang oras sa trabaho ng umagang iyon. Jenny was being extra quiet but I let her. Magsasabi naman 'yon kung handa na siya. She knows I'm just here.

Nang sumapit ang tanghali, nagpaalam ako sa kaniyang may pupuntahan.

"Ingat, Pia." she smiled, the fake one. I sighed dreamily and told her I might be late for the afternoon. Naintidihan naman niya iyon at sinabing siya na raw ang bahala.

Immediately after that, I left the office and went to The Venice subdivision were my sister and her husband is staying.

"Ate," I called her attention when their maid open the door.

She's currently on the living room eating a bowl of cereal. Seriously, tanghaling tapat iyon ang kinakain. Pinagkibit balikat ko na lang iyon.

Lumingon siya sa gawi ko, maliwanag ang mukha. "Pia!" she giggled.

Akma siyang tatayo pero mabilis ko itong pinigilan sa pamamagitan ng paglapit sa gawi niya. Her tummy is now big, bilog na bilog.

"Ano bang nakain mo't pumarito ka ngayon, huh Pia? Parang napaka imposibleng makita kita sa pamamahay ko!" Napangiwi ako sa tinuran niya.

Tinapik niya ang espasyo sa tabi niya na tila pinapahiwatig na doon ako umupo. "Nako ate, mukha ka na talagang balyena. Ang pangit mo na." I kidded as I sat beside her.

She pouted her lips and caress her round tummy. "Wala sa dugo natin ang pagiging pangit, Pia. Kahit anong hulma ng katawan ko, maganda pa rin ako 'no!" she defended.

I laugh and shook my head. Naalala kong iyon din ang sinabi sa akin ni mommy noong nakaraan. Though, hindi totoong pangit siya sa lagay ngayon, gusto ko lang asarin. Kinakabahan ako sa pabor na hihingin sa kaniya. I don't even know if she will agree. Siya lang kasi ang naiisip kong makakatulong sa amin.

"Hmm.. really? Paano kaya kung maghanap si kuya ng mas sexy at mas puti ang kili-kili kaysa sa'yo? I heard pregnant woman's armpit changed during pregnancy." tukso ko pa.

"Aba kung gusto niya 'di go! Hindi dapat tayo naghahabol tandaan mo 'yan Pia. Kung gusto na nilang umalis, hayaan mo! O kung mas gusto nila ang mas sexy at maputi ang kili-kili, hindi ko na problema 'yon! That's his loss." she narrated.

Natawa ako. She crossed her arms over her chest and looked at me. Para akong napaso at agad na nag-iwas ng tingin.

"Hihintayin kong mabuntis ka ni Chaz at maging balyena rin. Paano kung maghanap din siya ng mas sexy at mas white and armpit, what will you do, huh Pia?" sabi pa niya.

Namilog ang mga mata ko. I can feel the heat on my face. "A-Anong buntis ate? That won't happen!" My chest thudded. I take a fortifying gulp.

Pinagpawisan ako sa isiping iyon. Isang beses lang naman nangyari iyon sa pagitan namin ni Chaz kagabi, but I can vividly remember how he release all of his seeds inside me. There's a chance that I might be pregnant, however, can I.. handle the situation?

"Ano? Hindi pa na ka score si Chaz? Gosh ang bagal naman niya! Nasa iisang bubong na nga kayo hindi ka pa magapang!" she uttered nonchalantly. Muli niyang kinuha ang bowl saka sinimulang kainin ang laman.

"He's not like kuya kasi na mahilig manggapang." I said, trying to lift the tension I am feeling.

Ate Giselle face flushed. She put the bowl at her lap and answer me in the middle of chewing.

"Bakit ka nga ulit narito? You need anything?" pagbabago niya ng usapan.

Tipid akong napangiti bago huminga ng malalim. I surveyed their mansion first and when I saw no one, I sighed in relief. Binalikan ko ng tingin si ate na ngayon ay patuloy na ang pagkain.

"Where is kuya by the way?" I started.

"Nasa Baguio,"

"What is he doing there? Hindi ka na dapat iniiwang mag-isa lalo pa't kabuwanan mo na."

Bumingisngis si ate Giselle sa naging tanong ko. "Eh gusto ko ng strawberry from Baguio. Ayon biglang lumipad papunta roon para bumili."

Umawang ang labi ko sa gulat. I looked at her in shock. Tinawanan niya ang reaksyon ko.

"Oh Pia, ang judger mo naman. I didn't tel l him to go all the way to Baguio ha? Nasabi ko lang out of nowhere that I craved for strawberry's. Tyrone being my pabibo na asawa, ayon pumunta talaga siya!"

"Pero ang layo no'n," nasabi ko na lang sa pag kagulat.

"Distance won't matter, he said. Saka isa pa, may sariling helicopter naman 'yon, kita mo't maya-maya narito na ang kuya mo."

Tumango na lang ako bilang tugon. Tama naman siya. Mayaman si kuya Tyrone, hindi nga magiging hassle sa kaniya. Hindi ko maiwasang mapaisip kung ganoon din kaya si Chaz pagdating ng araw? Will he crossed distance to provide for my cravings too, someday?

Pasimple kong hinaplos ang sariling tiyan sa loob ng suot kong Dandelion halter top. Isang high waisted pants ang pang-ibaba ko.

"Ate," I whispered.

"Hmm?" she hummed, still busy eating.

"Can you help me?" I asked again.

Nakuha noon ang atensyon niya. She straightened her back and stare at me.

"May problema ka ba, Pia? Tell it to ate, makikinig ako." she smiled.

My heart melted. "No. Uh.. hihingi lang sana ako ng pabor."

"Kung kaya ko bakit hindi? Ano ba 'yon?" hinarap niya ako, nakangiti.

Huminga ako ng malalim at buong lakas ng sinabi ang tunay na pakay. I reached for my bag and searched for the pregnancy tests. I placed it on the table in front of us. It was wrapped on a plastic cover.

"Ano 'to?" Kinuha niya iyon at sinuri ang laman. Ganoon na lang ang panlalaki ng kaniyang mata.

"Can you use it, for me?"

Gulan siyang nilingon ako. Puno ng pagtataka ang mukha. "Anong gagawin mo sa pregnancy test na 'to, Pia? At bakit ako ang dapat gumamit hindi ikaw?" she asked, voice is laced with confusion.

I sighed and closed my eyes. I can't tell her the exact reason why. But how can I convince her without actually telling her the real reason behind those PT?

"Ate do you trust me?" I opened my eyes and looked at her directly. Nagsusumamo ko siyang binalingan. I need this.

"Of course I do!" Suminghap siya. "But what is this really Pia? You said you're not pregnant, so why are you letting me use this pregnancy test? What is this for?" sunod-sunod biyang tanong.

"Trust me on this one, ate. Hindi naman ako basta-basta lang hihingi ng pabor sa iyo kung hindi mahalagang usapan ang pakay ko. I just need your urine sample on this things. Your cooperation will be of great help."

Nakipagtitigan ako sa kaniya. Please say yes. Pipi kong bulong.

Ang kaniyang kulay tsukalateng mata ay sinuri ng maigi ang ekspresyon ng mukha ko. I didn't falter and gazed back at her.

She sighed. "Is this really necessary, Pia?"

I nodded my head.

"At least tell me kung saan mo ito gagamitin. Naguguluhan ako."

I bite my lips. Nagbaba ako ng tingin at piniling pagmasdan ang sariling mga daliri.

"I can't ate. I'm sorry." bulong ko, nawawalan na nang pag-asa.

"Hay, Pia." she sighed heavily.

Mariin kong kinagat ang pang-ibabang labi. I lifted my head. Ate Giselle looked problematic. Guilt rushed through me when I realized I caused her something to worry. Masama sa buntis ang ma stress, pero mukhang ako ang rason at na stress siya ngayon.

"Uh.. never mind ate. Don't stress yourself about it." pagsuko ko. There's another way to have it. Siguro, tatanungin ko na lang si Jenny kung may kakilala siyang buntis na makakatulong sa akin.

Ate Giselle looked at me for a moment before he release a deep breath. Nagulat ako ng bigla siyang tumayo, bitbit ang dalawang PT.

"Hintayin mo 'ko rito, huwag ka munang aalis." aniya saka tumalikod.

Bumuntonghininga ako. Tama ba itong ginagawa mo? Paano kung hindi pala ako buntis at ipapakita namin 'to kay Mommy? Aasa lang siya at sa huli'y wala naman palang apo.

Nanatili lang ako roon, nakaupo habang nag mumuni-muni. Hindi nagtagal, bumalik din naman agad si ate dala ang dalawang pregnancy test.

"Heto, Pia," she handed me the plastic. "Ewan ko kung ano ang binabalak mo sa mga 'yan. Pero siguraduhin mong hindi mo ikapapahamak. Hindi ko na ipipilit na alamin kung saan mo ba ito gagamitin, alam mo naman na kung ano ang ginawa mo." sinserong pahayag niya.

Mahigpit kong hinawakan ang supot na tila nakadepende roon ang buhay ko. O yes, buhay ni mommy.

"I will ate. Thanks a lot! Utang na loob ko sa'yo 'to." I grinned and embrace her into a hug.

I left their mansion with a light feeling. The PT was on my bag that is placed on the passenger seat. While driving, I decided to call Chaz. Naka loudspeaker lang ang cellphone ko habang hinihintay na sagutin niya ang tawag. On the third ring, he finally answered it.

"Hello?" his husky voice echoed.

Nakagat ko ang ibabang labi ng marinig ang boses niya. Napasapo ako sa noo habang umiiling.

I got it bad, huh. Really.

Tumikhim ako. "I have pregnancy test with me showing two read lines. Where—" Tumigil ako ng makarinig ng kalabog sa kabilang linya. Parang may nahulog?

"Man, hindi ganiyan ang tamang pagsira ng cellphone. Akin na, ako ang babasag." ani ng kung sino saka binuntunan ng tawa. It was a voice of a man.

"Shut up, Samuel! Can you please leave my office?"

"Sign first the contract, and I'll leave your humble office.." I didn't heard the complete sentence from him, mas lumiit ang boses niya hanggang sa hindi na ito umabot sa pandinig ko.

Kumunot ang noo ko. Kasama niya si Samuel ngayon?

Someone from the other line cleared his throat. "You were saying?"

Napakurap-kurap ako ng muling umalingawngaw ang boses ni Chaz.

"Anong nangyari?" I asked. I slowed the pace of the car when I turn right.

"It was nothing. The phone just slipped on my hold."

Napanguso ako. "Oh okay," Ang akala ko kung ano na.

"Can you repeat what you said? I didn't heard it clearly."

Tumango-tango ako tila nasa harapan ko lang siya. "Ah yes, positive ang dalawang pregnancy test na dala ko."

I heard him gasped. "P-Positive?" pag-uulit niya, nauutal.

Nakita kong malapit na ako sa drive tru, binagalan ko ang pagpapapatakbo. Naisipan ko lang na bumili ng burger saka fries. I missed those foods.

"Yes. Where shou—"

"Are you saying you're pregnant?!" he exclaimed on the phone.

My eyes widen a fraction at his question. Malakas akong natawa.

"No, Chaz! I'm not pregnant. Si ate ang pinagamit ko nito!" natatawa kong sagot.

I glanced at the phone when it went silent. Ang akala ko pa'y wala na siya roon pero nang tingnan ko, on going pa naman ang call.

"I was thinking we could show this to mommy later. Baka mabago nito ang isip niya. We are lying yes. But this is a white lie after all. We are just trying to save her."

"Yea, you're right." he simply answered with weak voice. "Mabuti napapayag mo." His voice turned cold in an instant.

"Now that's what we called charm. Anyway, where should I give you this?" nakangisi kong sagot.

"I am free now. Where are you? I could meet you and we'll bring that to mommy afterwards."

"Ako na lang ang pupunta sa opisina mo." agap ko.

"Do you know where?"

I rolled my eyes. "Alam ko. I'll hang up now, I'm driving."

I heard him sighed again. "Alright. Take care."
