Only Once in a Lifetime (TRF #4)

Chapter 34

Chapter 34

"Engineer, heto na po yung blueprint nung pinapagawa niyo kay Engineer Rodriguez." The architect said as I smiled.

"Thank you. Sabihin mo sakaniya ako na ang bahala dito." Kako at tumango naman siya bago umalis ng office ko.

While looking at the blueprint, a smile crept onto my lips. The design is so Aydien.

"Engineer, nandito po si Mr. Ferrer." Freya informed as my brows furrowed.

"Let him in." I consented as she nodded and left the room.

"Hey." He called as a smirk travelled to my lips.

"Uy, si baby you know pala to eh." I wiggled my eyebrows as he shot me a glare.

"Shut the fuck up, Zevilye." He scowled as I laughed.

"So? What brings you here?" I asked as he sighed.

"I need you to build a house in my property sa Makati. The land next to yours." He said as I frowned.

"Why?" I asked.

"Because, you need to." He smiled and it was fake as fuck.

"I'll have your brother do it. I'm busy." I said as he rolled his eyes.

"Fuck off. What are you busy with?" He asked with a faint British accent.

"Our house, Jax. I'm also going to start building our house." I said as he scoffed.

"Whatever. Just make sure it'll be done by next year." He said and stood up as I nodded.

"Tell that to your brother." I smiled teasingly as he rolled his eyes before leaving my office.

"Oh my lovely!" Mommy hugged Aydien as soon as we arrived at the house.

"Hello po." She greeted both of my parents as Mommy and Daddy smiled at her.

"Are you pregnant yet?" She asked as Aydien's eyes widened that made me sigh and pulled Aydien to my side.

"Mom, come on." I sighed as she chuckled.

"Just kidding. When will you get married though?" She asked as I groaned.

"Mommy!" I exclaimed as she looked at me innocently.

"What? You're already 25 years old. You shouldn't wait until you're 30." She hissed as I sighed.

"We didn't talk about that yet." I said as she pouted.

"But we will talk about it sooner or later po naman." Aydien smiled as my eyes widened.

"Really?" Sabay naming tanong ni Mommy at tumango naman siya.

"Yeah. Why? Don't you have plans on marrying me?" She raised a brow at me and I immediately shaked my head.

"Of course, I do have plans on marrying you." I replied as she rolled her eyes.

I mean not this year though because our house is still being built.

"But, I still want you to explore the world as you said. Enjoy your life not being that committed to me and such. I'm not going to rush it, you still have a lot ahead of you." Pagdadahilan ko kaya ngumuso siya.

"It makes me glad that you're being so considerate." She grinned as I kissed her forehead.

"I know you want to explore the world a bit more, lovely." I uttered as I heard my Mom awe.

"Okay fine, I won't rush it. Take your time. As long as you'll be marrying each other and not someone else." Mommy grinned as Dad beside her laughed.

"Hindi pa kami tinatawagan ni Des netong mga nakaraang araw." Elle bit her lips as I shrugged.

"She's probably busy? She's a doctor, you know." I assured her but she sighed.

"I know, but it's been almost three weeks, love. Nag-aalala na ako. Wala naman daw siya sa ospital sabi ni Callie." She problematically sighed.

That stupid fucker, really.

"She'll be fine, lovely. Take a rest for a bit and I'll ask Triveon to look for her. Okay?" I asked as she nodded and headed to the bedroom.

I dialed Triveon's phone number. Actually, I'm worried that one of my friends will be put into jail for kidnapping his ex. He's so desperate.

"Yow, what does the engineer need?" He asked as I sighed.

"Find Desiree for me will you?" I asked as I heard him laugh.

"The dude took her. I mean she didn't have a choice. The fucker blackmailed her into going with him." Natatawang sabi niya kaya napatampal noo ako.

"Just.... Tell him that Des should assure her friends. Aydien's so worried." I said as he hummed.

"Uh-huh. Will do, engineer." He said as I scoffed.

"Thanks, Xiv." I said before hanging up.

Guess I need to leave it up to the desperate fucker. I'm sure he knows his worth, at alam naman niya siguro ang limitasyon niya. I know that he won't push himself more to Des if she makes him realize that she really despises him. But that's if she really despises him.

But by the way she looked at him before. It's full of anger and hatred but in her eyes there was some kind of confusion and longing. Maybe just maybe, she still loves him.

Only time can tell anyway.

"I have an appointment, hindi ako papasok ngayon." Pagpapaalam ni Aydien kaya tinignan ko siya.

"Appointment? For what?" I asked as she pursed her lips.

"Bibisitahin ko si Callie sa hospital." She replied as I nodded.

"Be careful alright?" I said as she kissed my cheeks and nodded.

"I will, love you, baby." She said as I smiled.

"I love you more, lovie." I replied.

"Baby, are you alright?" I asked Aydien when she arrived home.

She hesitantly nodded and my brows immediately furrowed at her action.

"Are you really alright?" I asked as she sighed.

"I went to the hospital earlier." She sat down beside me on the couch.

"I'm aware, binista mo si Callie." I said as she sighed as she nodded.

"Nagpa monthly check-up na rin ako." Sabi niya kaya kumunot ang noo ko.

"You should've told me, sana nasamahan kita." Sabi ko kaya umiling siya.

"It's not that serious naman. I'm perfectly fine. Monthly check-up ko lang iyon." Sabi niya kaya napabuntong hininga ako.

"So? Why do you look so bothered?" I asked as she sighed.

"Well, may nakita yung doctor ko." Sabi niya at tumaas ang kilay ko. My heart is beating so fast, there are so many possibilities of what her doctor saw.

"And what did your doctor see?" I asked.

"Uh, my OB especially." She cleared her throat.

"Elle, you better tell me right now. My heart is going to die already." I said as she chuckled and held my hand.

"She told me to take a pregnancy test because I told her what I was feeling these past few days." She grinned as I tilted my head.

"Anong resulta?" I asked not even processing the words she said before.

"Wait what?" I asked when the words sunk in my mind already.

"It's positive!" She threw her arm around my neck as I stilled.

Holy mother fucking shit!
