Description
"Christian, I'm..." I swallowed. "I'm pregnant." Napatitig siya sa akin. "Seryoso 'yan?" "Of course!" Medyo napataas ang boses ko. "Why would I joke about such a thing?" "Malay ko, baka prank," sabi niya at nagtanong, "Mga dalawang buwan na siguro 'yang tiyan mo, tama ba?" "I'm not sure. I haven't seen a doctor yet," I answered. "Sasamahan kita magpa-check up. Ke'lan mo gusto?" I saw tenderness in his eyes. I blinked several times. This is not the reaction I am expecting from him. I thought he won't believe me or deny the baby. "Y-you're really sure this is yours?" I asked in surprise. "I mean...you're not gonna doubt me, or ask me details, or anything?" "Hindi ka naman siguro gano'n ka-tanga na niloko ka na nga ng ex mo eh, nagpabuntis ka pa sa kanya." There is confidence in his voice. "Kaya alam kong akin 'yan." I was dumbfounded for a few moments with what he said, but I was able to regain my poise. "Well, since you're really sure, then let's talk about how could we be parents to our baby, even if were not together." "Anong even if were not together? Umayos ka." Tumitig siya sa akin. "Pakakasalan kita."
