"Are you hiding something from me?"

Nakabalik siya rito ng Alas sais. Kakatapos lang namin mag-dinner. A simple healthy veggie food is our dinner meal few minutes ago. Si Manang milet mismo ang nag-luto para mas lalong healthy ang baby ko.

Ngayon ay nasa kwarto na kami, nakahiga siya sa kama samantalang naka upo ako sa couch. I was thinking of how will I tell him about my pregnancy test but my mind ended up on his Architect. Wala akong imik sa kanya at kanina pa iyon, mukhang napansin niya rin ang lamig ng pagtrato ko sa kanya.

"Wala naman." Malamig kong sagot at yumuko.

"I left my phone here..." It was almost a whisper.

And your ally, texted you.

Nakita ko kung paano niya chineck ang cellphone niya.

"Did you saw architect miller's text?" He said.

Hindi ko napigilan ang sarili ko. I stood up and stand infront of him. Ayukong maging ganito. Tama si Manang, dapat akong magtanong.

"Pumunta ka kanina sa bahay ni Allyson o Architect Miller mo?" Diretsong tanong ko.

Agad siyang napaupo sa gulat. "What the hell? No Klein... What are you saying---"

"Come on, kajik. Bakit kailangan mo pang magsinungaling?! Pupunta ka sa condo o bahay niya? Anong gagawin niyo roon?!" Sa sigaw ko ay napapikit siya ng mariin at nahihirapang sagutin ang mga tanong ko.

"Baby... Let me explain."

Hindi ako nagsalita at habol hiningang tinignan na lamang siya.

"Tinawagan niya ako. It was 4 am in the morning and you're still sleeping. Ang Sabi niya, gusto niyang papuntahin ako sa office niya for something important information, so I agree but ended up declined her request. I can't help her..." He left a deep breath before continue what he said.

"I didn't expect her to text me---"

"Ang sabihin mo, pupunta ka talaga roon para maglandian kayo!" I accused.

With his pierce look, he straight stood up. "I didn't! Okay? I don't know why she texted me when in fact I already say no! Baby... Please, listen to me."

Umiiling iling ako. "Ang kapal ng mukha mo! You even have the audacity to lie!"

Pakiramdam ko ay pumiyok ang aking boses.

I watch him, breathing heavily and trying to calm himself.

"Klein..."

"Gusto kong matulog." Sabi ko imbes tumango sa pagtawag niya sa aking pangalan.

Tinalikuran ko siya at dahan dahang humiga sa kama at tumagilid. Mabuti at hinayaan niya ako. Pagod akong pag-usapan ang babaeng iyon.  Pinanood niya akong humiga at pilit kong iwasan ang titig niya. This doesn't make sense at all...

"Why do you always do this to me?" It was almost a whisper. "You doubt my love for you... You really don't have trust on me, Klein?"

Because of what he said. My brain immediately ask, may point siya, wala ba akong tiwala sa kanya? Bakit ayaw kong naniwala sa rason o explanation niya?

I froze when he lay beside me.

I gulped when I felt his lips sa balikat ko. He's kissing it...

"Lola told me, you'll give me something. What is it?" Malambing niyang sabi at hinahalikan ang balikat ko.
