Alex's POV

I tried not to look at Gin across the table.  I know he is grinning non-stop.

I am sitting next to his mother.  Habang sa magkabilang dulo ng mahabang mahogany table ay ang kanyang Papa at ang kanyang Lolo.

"I am glad you two both make it," nakangiting sabi ng Mama ni Gin.

I tried to smile.  I wanted to say muntik ng hindi.  

Pag-uwi ko talaga mamaya I will sleep like a log.

I am really tired.  Adik kasing Gin na to.  Goodness.  Ngayon ako mas natatakot.  I forgot to monitor my period.  I hope not to get pregnant this early.  Pakiramdam ko hindi pa ako handa.

At wala pang 6 months na magkakilala kami ni Gin.

That worries me even more.

"So iha, how do you manage the MGM?  Nag aaral ka pa din hindi ba?"

Napaangat ang mukha ko.  Ang lolo ni Gin ang nagtanong.  Pati si Gin ay napatingin sa agwelo.

"Lolo."

I swallowed hard.  "I have a private attorney to settle business matter na iniwan ng daddy, sir.  Until I am at my legal age, those will be under my guardian."

Napatango ito.  

"I hope na hindi ninyo agad maisipan ni Carlos na magpakasal," ang sabi ng kanyang Papa.

"Oo nga iha, mga bata pa kayo.  You know, unwanted pregnancy is not----," segunda ng Mama ni Gin.

Nasamid ako.

Ngingisi ngisi lamang si Gin.

"Ano naman masama Mama kung magpakasal ako at this age?" nakangising sabi nito.

Napatanga lamang ako kay Gin.

"Carlos!  That is not a good joke!" ang sabi ng kanyang Papa.

Maging ang mama ni Gin ay napatingin sa anak. Pilit itong tumawa.

"C'mon Carlos.  Nag aaral pa kayo pareho ni Alexandra.  I am sure gusto nyo makatapos ng pag aaral," alanganing sabi nito.

"N-Nagbibiro lamang po si Gin," mahinang usal ko.

He lifted a brow.  

Pinaglipat lipat nito ang tingin sa mga naroon and he rolled his eyes in boredom.  "Alright, I am just kidding.  I need to finish, of course, dahil that's one of the requirements to run for a gubernatorial race isn't it?"

Agad ang pag rehistro ng pagkabigla sa mukha ng Papa nito at ng lolo nito.  Halatang hindi inaasahan ang sinabi ni Gin.

Ang Mama nito ang nakabawi sa pagkabigla.  "S-So you decided to replace your father?" manghang sabi nito.

He shrugged his shoulder.  Itinuloy ang pagkain.  "As long as I have a wife to stand by me when I finally betrothed."

Namula ako.

Lahat sila napatingin sa akin.  Napakurap lamang ako.

Siraulong Gin talaga.

I announce ba ng ganito kaaga!

Nag angat ng tingin si Gin ng wala isa man nagsalita.

"So you don;t have any objections right?  It;s a win-win situation for you already.  Get me back here in the country and make me run.  And so its official, I am running to replace my father," he said drily.

Nanatiling tahimik sila.

Pati ako kinakabahan.  

"And what makes you decide to run in your own accord?"

Ang boses ng papa ni Gin.  He said in a much authoritative voice than his grandfather.  He is looking very grim too.  Halatang hindi nagustuhan ang tono ng anak.

He looked at me.  I tried to warn him not to say anything.  He just smiled at me and looked back at his father.

"The right girl agreed to marry me after I win that election."

Napapikit na lamang ako ng mariin.

I should be proud and happy.

But I feel nothing.

Dahil alam ko na hindi ako ang babaeng gusto nila para kay Gin.
