Asia smile as she watch her husband cook something for their dinner, ang sabi lang naman niya ay gutom siya but Loki insisted on cooking something for her which makes her heart flutter in happiness. The progress of their relationship is not that bad but not that good, Loki's temper is a barrier to them. He is getting mad over a little thing and she's trying to understand him more, tumagal pa ng konti ay susubukan niyang kausapin ito na nag patingin sa mga specialist.

Anger management issue is not easy to deal with, gusto niya sanang mag research about sa bagay na iyon ngunit wala naman siyang cellphone, sa trabaho naman ay restricted ang nga sites.

"Sabay na tayo mamaya pag uwi, I want to have a date with my wife."

Asia smile and nodded, hinihintay na lang niyang matapos ang asawa na mag luto. Sabay pa silang kumain tapos ay sabay din silang pumasok sa trabaho, as they entered the building all eyes are on them. Asia looks up at the man beside her walking with grace and pride.

"Pinag titinginan tayo..." Natatawa niyang bulong. Medyo nasasanay na din siya sa mga ito after working here for a month Asia became use to those stares.

"I'm handsome, and my wife is beautiful... They should feel envious."

"Envious talaga?"

Loki nodded and gave her a wink making Asia flush.

"They should be, I'm lucky to bought you."

Napahinto si Asia sa sinabi ni Loki, of course he bought her. Something strange is happening inside her, why is she hurt when Loki said those words to her?

"Wife?"

Asia blink numerable times, napatingin siya sa asawang nakatayo hindi kalayuan sa kanya. Dali dali siyang nag lakad palapit dito at pilit na ngumiti.

"May problema ba?"

Asia immediately shook her head, it was just her silly emotion maybe because of pregnancy.

"Wala naman, tara na?"

Loki nodded, he intertwined their hand and walk towards the elevator. Nakita niya pa si Gina na nakatayo di kalayuan sa kanila, Gina gave her a wink and smile na sinuklian niya ng ngiti.

LOKI'S SCHEDULE is full that she can't have a rest for just a while. Parang gusto na lang niya na umuwi at mag pahinga ngunit trabaho niya iyon kaya't wala siyang magawa.

"Mukhang pagoda Philippines ka ah? Naka ilang rounds kayo da ibabaw ng lamesa?"

Agad na tinakpan ni Asia ang bibig ni Gina dahil sa tabil ng dila nito.

"Yang bunganga mo nga!"

Gina chuckled and surrendered, naupo ito sa harap niya at nilagay ang tray ng pag kain na dala nito. Her mouth immediately watered at the sight of slice peach on Gina's plate.

"Saan ka bumili niyan?" Agad niyang tanong.

"Pindala sakin ni Mama, bakit gusto mo?"

Asia nods her head, Gina did gave her the peaches that she indulge immediately.

"Dahan dahan ka naman mabulunan ka " sita nito at nag simula nadin kumain. "Nasaan na kaya si Sir Luhence no? Mag i-isang buwan na din siyang hindi pumapasok."

Napansin na din iyon ni Asia, matagal na ngang hindi pumapasok si Luhence. She wondered why, gusto niya sanang tanungin ang XDasawa ngunit baka magalit ito.

"Hi ma'am Asia!"

Gina's eyes rolled when she saw the woman who push Asia at the team building.

"Umm Hi?"

Inilapag nito ang isang box sa kanilang lamesa.

"Chocolate cake po! Nadaanan ko kanina at naalala kita."

Asia saw Gina's eyebrow raised, gusto niya sanang tumawa ngunit baka mabastos niya ang kaharap.

"Salamat sana hindi kana nag abala."

Kinausap niya si Loki about dito, she beg him not to kick them out dahil naranasan din niya noon ang mawalan ng trabaho. It was hard to look for a job specially these days.

"Ako ho ang dapat na mag pasalamat sa inyo, na hindi niyo kami hinayaang matanggal. At hihingi na din ng pasensya sa mga nagawa ko noon it was really unprofessional."

Asia nodded, hindi naman siya mababaw na tao tinitimbang niya ang lahat ng bagay.

"Wala iyon, I just hope you won't do that same treatment to others kasi mahirap."

The woman nodded tapos ay nag paalam na din ito na aalis.

"Ngayon akala mo mabait." Irap ni Gina.

"Hayaan mo na, tao lang nag kakamali."

"Di nga mukhang tao yon." Bulong ni Gina, hindi na lang siya kumibo at nag patuloy na kumain.

"Buntis ka ba?"

Halos mabulunan si Asia sa tanong ng kaibigan, it was a sudden question coming from her mouth.

"Oh kalma nag tatanong lang." Natatawang wika nito. "Bet na bet mo kasi yang peach baka lang naman."

Asia took a tissue and immediately wipe her mouth.

"A-ano ba yang sinasabi mo? Hindi no!"

"Hindi naman kasi malabo, I mean may asawa ka natural lang siguro yon. Gwapo at maganda siguro magiging anak niyo ni Sir!"

Doon lang nakahinga ng maluwag si Asia, she thought that someone already knew her secret she's glad no one knows.

----

"Saan ba tayo pupunta?" Asia impatiently asked.

"It's a surprise, kapag sinabi ko edi hindi na surprise."

"Nag tatanong lang ihh!"

R
Loki chuckled, hinawakan niya ang kamay ng asawa at ngumiti.

"Don't be impatient my wife, we will get there soon."

Tumango na lang si Asia dahil kahit ano namang pilit niya sa asawa niya ay hindi ito mag sasalita. After a while Loki then stopped the car infront of two storey house, rinig din niya ang malakas na bagsak ng tubig di kalayuan sa kanila.

"Nasaan tayo?"

Ngumiti lang si Loki bago bumaba ng sasakyan then he went to her side and open the door for her. Inilapat ni Loki ang kamay sa kanyang harapan so she took his hand and hop off the car.

"I have a gift for you..."

Agad na napakunot ng noo si Asia, a gift for what? She wants to asked but they were infront of a huge gate. Loki took a key in his pocket and open it, they intertwined their hands and walk towards the long patio habang nag lalakad ay naririnig na ni Asia ang palakas na palakas na bagsak ng tubig till they reach a beautiful vintage two storey house.

"A-ang ganda..." Wala sa sarili niyang wika mesmerized on how beautiful the house is standing in front of a falls.

"I know this is not what exactly you like for a house, you want it infront of the lake but I guess this is also peaceful."

Asia's mouth hanged ope. To what Loki said. Hindi niya mahanap ang dapat sabihin sa asawa

"We are one year married, I know I have been such an asshole the whole year. I hurt you physically and emotionally but I'm trying to cope up and gave you the best that I could give."

Asia's eyes watered, hindi niya alam ang sasabihin gusto niya sanang lumundag sa saya ngunit buntis siya, hindi lang halata ng asawa because she would usually wear some oversized clothes that will cover her stomach.

"I-I—" but her words were cut off when Loki cupped her face and kiss her lips.

"I'm sorry I can't help it..."

Sabay pa silang natawa dahil sa sinabi nito, Loki then gave her the key and hold her hand.

"Let's go?"

Asia nodded, and was in oblivion while looking at the house infront of her.

"I named it after you..." Dagdag ni Loki. "It's yours."

"Mine?"

Loki nodded, binitawan nito ang kanyang kamay at hinayaan siyang mag bukas ng pinto. If the view outside is beautiful so is the inside, it was a fully furnished house.

"Dito na tayo titira?"

Loki chuckled, lumapit ito sa kanya giving her a back hug.

"We will after a year, I'll just need to finish something at the office so I can work here freely."

Asia nodded and smile, she completely understand. Ang asawa niya ay CEO ng isang malaking kompanya Loki can't be a MIA because he has a responsibility. Mabilis na kinuha ni Loki ang cellphone nito ng tumunog iyon.

"I'll just take this call, go ahead and explore."

Asia gave her a smile and nodded, she watches her husband leave then she went upstairs.

"Ang galing ahh, may cignal parin dito?"

Nasa gitna kasi sila ng bundok, and she's just amazed that Loki have a connection here. She shrugged that thought off an went upstairs, may dalawang silid doon, the door has a sign on it indicating what room is she in.

"Little star's room." Basa niya, agad na napakunot ang noo niya dahil hindi niya maintindihan kung bakit ganoon ang pangalan ng kuwarto. Then she tried opening it but it was lock so she went to the other room.

"Asia and Loki's room..." Mahina siyang natawa dahil sa nakasulat doon. Then she tried to open the door and it push open.

Ang kanyang mata ay humanga sa ganda ng interior design ng kuwarto, she can't describe how beautiful it is. Wala sa sariling nag lakad siya palapit sa kama at naupo doon, it was so soft that her body almost went inside the foam.

"Wife?"

Mabilis siyang naupo ng marinig ang tawag ni Loki, then the door opened.

"I'm sorry but we need to go back."

"H-huh? Bakit naman?"

Loki sighed and walk towards her, he kneel infront of her and hold her hands.

"I'm really sorry, babawi ako sayo." He whispered caressing her hand. "It was really an emergency."

Asia sighed and nodded, Loki gave her a smile then he lean to give her a quick kiss.

"Let's go?"

Asia nodded, sabay na silang nag lakad palabas. They immediately hopped on the car and watch the place as they leave. Bigla tuloy siyang nalungkot dahil excited pa naman siyang tumalon sa waterfalls. Tahimik lang ang kanilang naging byahe, they were both silent and no one dares to talk till they reach the town, ngunit imbis na pauwi ay iba ang daan na tinahak ni Loki.

"Saan tayo pupunta?"

Ngunit hindi na siya na sagot ng asawa dahil huminto ang sasakyan nito sa tapat ng hospital.

"I'll be back, don't move in here." He said then quickly jump off the car and left.

Asia sighed as she watch her husband enter the hospital, hindi niya alam kung bakit dito ito huminto. Is someone hurt? Parang may sariling utak ang kanyang katawan na kusang lumabas ng sasakyan at nag mamadaling sumunod sa asawa.

"Keira Ricci, where is she?"

"I'll check first —"

"Faster!" Sigaw ni Loki.

The woman behind the table was shock but she obliged, mabilis nitong hinanap ang babaeng sinabi ni Loki.

"She's in the emergency room Sir."

Loki didn't answer and immediately run towards the emergency room. Then he stopped when he saw someone familiar.

"Keira..."

The woman looks at Loki's direction then she smile, Asia froze when her husband run towards the woman then he hugged her so tight that something inside her clench in pain while watching her husband hugs another woman then she realize something, it was the same woman at Italia.

"Are you okay? What happened?"

Keira gave Loki a smile then she look at her arm.

"Just bruise good thing I didn't die."

"Keira!"

Keira chuckled then she touched Loki's face.

"Your wife would be upset with that kind of reaction." Wika nito. "When did you get wed?"

"It's not important right now! Is there anything else? Fracture? Any—"

"Hush! I'm fine, it was just bruise and it was all good "

Loki sighed and nodded.

"What happened? How did you even get here?"

"I ride a plane, simple. Do you still need the exact details?"

"No it's fine as long as you are okay..." Wika ni Loki. "Do you already have a place to stay?"

Keira sighed then she shook her head.

"I don't, I came here unplanned."

"You can stay at my house."

Keira immediately shook her head.

"No it's fine, I'm okay. Besides I already contacted Leonard, I'm sure he will be here."

Loki clench his teeth as that name, he knows who Leonardo Ivanov is. He was connected to Agustos Ivanov, an adopted child of Ivanov's family since Agustos Ivanov didn't have a son the only child he has is Asia Argento.

"The marriage is still on?"

Keira nodded.

"How can you marry the son of a murderer Keira?!"

"Loki mind you voice! I don't have a choice, my family is indebted to them what can I do?" Mariing wika nito. "Whatever happens between us is in all in the past, you are married and I'm also getting married. Let's not talk about our past anymore, please.. I called you because I have no one in here."

Loki sighed in frustration then he stood up.

"Wait for your fiance here then, I'll get going."

Hindi na siya muling nag salita he then left without saying a word. He immediately went back to his car and saw his wife waiting.

"Kumusta? Is someone hurt?"

But he didn't answer.

"Loki?"

"Shut up!" He hissed. "I don't want to hear your voice."

Asia's mouth immediately shut, nag badya nanaman ang luha mula sa kanyang mata ngunit pinigil niya ang sarili na umiyak.

"I'm sorry..." Bulong ni Loki. "I shouldn't have—"

"No it's fine, umuwi na tayo pagod na din ako."
