Magulo pa rin ang isip ni Micaela.
How could she be out of her mind. How could she let this happen? Here she is lying in this hospital bed. Pregnant with Zian's child and she hasn't even gotten out of college.
Micaela ano ka ba?
Nasa ganitong ayos siya nang pumasok si Zian sa kuwarto.
"We are going home."
He held her by the hand.
"W-wait."
"Why?"
"I'm getting a surgical face mask from the nurse station. They can't see you like this... baka bukas nasa headlines ka na naman."
"The hell Micaela. Stop it." It was a command. "I don't care. Let's go."
Hawak ang kamay ni Micaela pumasok sila sa elevator. May ilang tao na nakakilala kay Zian at humingi ng autograph nito at nagpa-picture.
Palabas sila ng pinto ng hospital ng may humabol sa kanilang bata.
"Si Joseph The Dreamer mommy! Si Joseph The Dreamer mommy! sigaw nito habang hinahabol ito ng ina.
Tumigil sila sandali para sa bata.
"Mr. Joseph, Mr. Joseph... can I have a picture with you?"
"S-Sure."
"Naku pasensiya na lagi niya kasi pinapanood yung Joseph The Dreamer binilhan kasi siya ng daddy niya ng DVD nito kaya kilala ka niya."
"It's alright. What is your name little girl?" tanong ni Zian hawak pa rin nito si Micaela.
"My name is Micaela..."
What a coincidence... Her name is Micaela too. She is my girlfriend."
"She is beautiful."
Ngumiti si Micaela. Kinuha nito ang phone sa nanay ng bata.
"Akin na, I'll take your picture." Kinunan nito ang mag-ina kasama si Zian at kinunan din niya ang bata at si Zian.
"Why are you here?" tanong ni Zian sa mag-ina.
"Dinalaw namin yung lola niya."
"Oh, okay thank you for letting me take picture with you Micaela." Kinusot nito ang buhok ng bata.
"Thank you Mr. Joseph."
"Salamat Zian." sabi ng nanay nito.
Sa kotse. "I really have a thing for Micaelas ha." sabi ni Zian bago inistart ang kotse.
Micaela smiled.
