A/N
The film portrays a young newlywed couple, Kristy and Jake Briggs played by Elizabeth McGovern and Kevin Bacon, who try to cope with being married and what is expected of them by their parents. Jake must also deal with the fantasy woman of his dreams. The film is about traditional 1980s suburban life and the cultural expectations that come along with it. To a large extent what Jake experiences could be described as a form of culture shock, with his best man Davis (Alec Baldwin) as a reminder of his former culture as a single man, and feeling alienated when he overhears his neighbors converse about mundane suburban topics. He feels he has left the culture of single men, and has entered the culture of a married man, and doesn't appear to have a sense of belonging to either.
Alex's POV
May kabang bumundol sa dibdib ko.
"W-What?" mahinang sabi ko. I could feel I am shaking literally. Nanginig bigla ang tuhod ko at agad ang takot na naramdaman ko.
"Y-You are 3 weeks pregnant, anak. Oh God, Isabella!" naiiyak na sabi ni Clarissa at hindi ko pinansin ang pagtawag niya sa akin ng anak dahil halo halo ang nararamdaman kong takot, kaba--antisipasyon.
Natakot ako.
Wala sa loob na napahawak ako sa tiyan ko habang ang mga mata ko ay hindi inaalis sa pagkakatingin kay Fredrick.
Ironic.
Ang lalaking dapat sana kaharap ko ngayon ay ang lalaking siyang dahilan bakit ako nasa ganitong kalagayan.
Pero si Fredrick na iniiwasan ko, sinusupladahan ko at kulang na lamang bastusin ko kapag nagkakaharap kami, ay siyang umaalalay sa akin ngayon.
"You should tell him," nagkaroon ng halong katigasan ang tinig nito ng makita ang papalit palit na emosyon na dumaan sa mukha ko.
Hindi ko na nagawang manlaban ng maramdaman ang pagyakap sa akin ni Clarissa.
Natulala ako.
Nabigla.
"N-No," iling ko ng ilang ulit. I can't be pregnant.
I can't be.
"Don't worry anak, mommy is here," she said as she sobs above my head.
I wish her words will be enough to pacify the fear that I am feeling right now.
All that I want is to believe this is nothing but a dream.
A bad dream.
