"No Greg, I want to settle this tonight. If you're tired and don't want to hear my explanation to El go to your room and take a rest" pilit ni Irene.
Napahinto sa paglalakad si Greggy, lumingon siya sa mag-ina niya at bakas ang mga luha sa mukha nila at unti nalang ay maniningkit na lalo ang mga mata nila.
"Tapusin na natin lahat, ano man ang maging reaction ni Eli tatanggapin ako. Ayoko nang maglihim, I want to let this out" dagdag nya pa.
"Fine, tell everything to her" napipilitang wika ni Greggy and sat down to the nearest couch
"I'm not going anywhere, I wamt to guide my daughter" wika niya.
Eli cleared her throat, she faced her parents while wiping her tears
"When did you find out that you were pregnant with me?" Eli asked.
"2 weeks after that night El, we were indenial because me being pregnant is not yet included in our plan" tapat na wika niya.
Napapikit si Eli, masakit pala talaga.
FLASHBACK:
"Greggy what did we do? this is not planned, we're not even using contraceptives" panic na wika ni Irene nang magising sila ni Greggy.
She's not dumb, malaki ang tsansa na mabuntis siya sa ginawa nila ni Greggy.
"I don't know also Irene, whatever may happen papanindigan natin. We're ready to settle naman na, its not a big deal if you get pregnant" sagot ni Greggy.
Napakunot ang noo ni Irene.
"What? Do you hear yourself Greg? This is not included in our plan. I will fly abroad to be a doctor, how can I achieve that dream If I became a Pregnant? Nag-iisip ka ba?" Galit na wika niya.
"Oh ano ang plano if you got pregnant? Abort the child? Hindi ako papayag Irene"
Irene was crying, maraming thoughts na pumapasok sa isip niya.
"O-ofcourse n-not, I w-will not d-do that" umiiyak na sagot niya
"You can continue pursuing your dreams after years incase you got pregnant. Andiyan lang yang pangarap Irene" naiinis na rin na wika ni Greggy.
Halos pasigaw na ang mga sagot nila dalawa, in years of being together ngayon lang sila nag-away ng ganito.
Nanahimik si Irene and just cry, di naman siya natiis ni Greggy so he comforted her.
"Shhh stop crying, just pray na hindi tayo nakabuo if you really want to achieve that dreams of yours" he said.
But he wished opposite, gusto niya may mabuo para maging isang ganap na pamilya na sila. Siguro naman ay kayang isantabi ni Irene ang pangarap niya para sa anak niya.
Two weeks later...
"Manang where's Irene? Let me talk to her" wika ni Greggy nang makarating siya sa bahay nila sa San Juan.
"Gusto daw niya mapag-isa Greggy, kahit kami ay ayaw kausap. Nagkukulong lang siya sa kwarto" sagot ni Imee.
"Ma, can you please talk to Irene? We need to talk Ma" pakiusap niya kay Meldy nang makita niya ito.
"Sorry Greg, I already tried to talk to her pero hindi ako kinikibo eh. Maybe let's just give her some space" sagot nito.
"What space? Ma she's carrying our child and I know she don't want it. Paano nalang kung anong gawin niya sa anak niya, let me talk to her please" umiiyak na wika ni Greggy.
