I patiently waited for him to come home. Na-inform ko naman sya na sa bahay namin sa Alabang ako nagstay. It was already 10 pm when he arrived.


He smiled and walked straight to hug me. "Hi, mommy!"


I looked at him while his hands were still around me, he tried to kiss me, but I immediately dodged it.


"Sungit ng nanay mo, anak." He said when he kissed my tummy.


I crossed my arms around my chest. Tinignan nya ako ng may pagtataka.


"What did I do?" He tiredly asked.


I showed him the envelop that was sent surely by his mom. Dom had it verified if sino nagpadala, tss. I can do better, Tita Ciana.


He looked at the photos with no emotion. "Did you believe in any of these?"


"Not everything."


He furrowed his brows. "Baby.."


"Well some photos were edited, that's mostly our trips. My body but different faces, clearly edited."


"Glad you know that," he pointed out. "But, what's making my baby mad?"


I rolled my eyes. "Yung picture nyo ni Reina dyan, totoo yan. That's not my body. Tss. Boobs pa lang malayo na, mas malaki kanya."


Pero imbes sagutin ako, mas tinawanan pa ako ni gago. "Napalaki ko naman na ata yung sayo? I like yours, better fit my hands."


Pinaghahampas ko sya. "Bakit naka-akbay ka? Sapakin kita dyan e."


He laughed more and pulled me for a hug. "That's for photo-ops only. You know, lumalaban syang vice mayor, same ticket party."


"Wow, meant to be." I mockingly said.


"Yeah, sobra," sagot nya. Hinampas ko sya. "Tayo, sobrang meant to be. Tss. Bakit naman kita ipagpapalit? I'm not dumb to cheat on my future wife. Nasa akin na lahat, magloloko pa ako?"


"Tss. Bolero," bulong ko. "Hindi man lang ako suyuin."


"Bakit papasuyo ka na ba, mahal?"


He hugged me even tighter. "I missed you. My mom sent the photos, right?"


I didn't say any. Bahala ka if ano gusto mong isipin.


"I'm sorry, baby. Few more months, I promise."


"What if you win?" I asked seriously.


"I won't."


"How sure are you? Baliw ka ba? Bakit naghihirap ka if matatalo ka?"


He kissed my shoulder. "Trust me. I'm doing something. I will never be my family's puppet. "


I wrinkled my forehead. He kissed the tip of my nose.


"Sayo lang ako papaalila." Bulong nya bago ako halikan ng mariin. How easy for us to solve a conflict now. Is it because we are thinking of our baby?


"Kumain kana?" Tanong ko nung tapos na syang maligo. Beads of water were still in his chest. Bakit ba lumalabas na tuwalya lang sa bewang ang meron sya?! Asar. Damn, hormones!


He walked to my walk-in closet, andun din kasi yung maleta nya. Mabilis din syang natapos na nagbihis.


"Hindi pa, misis."
