"Ate!" I exclaimed happily, hugging her when I got close.

Seeing her lighten up my mood. It's been two days since Dylan kept me in locked down at ang makita ang ibang tao maliban sa maids ay talagang nagpagaan ng loob ko. Hindi ko alam kung anong kabaliwan ang ginagawa niya pero bahala siya.

Nakalimutan ko ang inis ko kay Dylan at iginaya si ate Adelaine sa sofa, agad akong tumabi sa kanya. Walang cable dahil may ginagawa daw sa poste-of course kasama do'n ang wifi. I was so bored watching movies over and over again so it's really nice that she visited.

"There's already cooking in the oven so when's the wedding?" I smiled shyly at her before a giggle of excitement followed.

"Wala pa ngang proposal eh."

She smiled sweetly. "I'm sure Dylan would come up on something."

"Tignan natin..."

Dylan and I already talked about the wedding. He said it's expected since our baby's on the way. Talking about it over breakfast seemed bland and of course—non romantic but it's fine.

Hindi ko kailangan ng mga gano'n. As long as si Dylan ang groom ko at ako ang bride niya, okay lang na walang proposal pero dapat bumawi siya sa kasal at reception.

Yung date and time? Wala pa din. The goal was set but the details were still pending.

I was actually not excited for the wedding. Siguro dahil hindi pa pumapasok sa sistema ko ang pagpapakasal. Mas focus kasi ako kay baby. Minsan pag malalim ang pag-iisip ko tungkol dito, di ko maiwasang kabahan lalo na't sa araw ng panganganak ko. But thinking about bringing a piece of me and Dylan had me ecstatic.

"Buti nalang dumalaw ka, ate. Naiinip na 'ko dito."

"Sabi ko na nga ba naiinip ka na dito kaya nga dumalaw ako eh. All of them actually wanted to visit you pero itong si Dylan masyadong paranoid."

"True, ate." I said. "Hindi nga ako makalabas eh."

Napangiti siya sa aking sinabi. "I guess nasa mga Orevalo ang gano'n. Si Randell nga maya't maya ang pagtawag noong bagong kasal kami. He's so clingy. Kahit pag-alis ko kasama mga kapatid ko dapat detalyado."

"Pareho sila!" Patuloy kaming nagtatawanan sa mga kwento ng isa't isa.

We watched movies then played console after. Nakakagulat dahil mas magaling si ate kaysa sa'kin maglaro. She's not the person I thought she was. Mahinhin kasi ito at pino gumalaw. Meron din pala siyang boyish side.

She told me that their love started from gaming. They met because one of her brother was also a motorcycle racer. Ito ung mga panahong hilig pa ni kuya na sumali sa mga gano'n. Na-ikwento niya pa na lagi siyang hinahamon ni kuya no'n sa video games dahil lagi itong talo. Kuya wouldn't accept defeat.

Kuya Randell, that time didn't know that she grew up with five older brothers. The most amazing was, she knew how to ride a motorcycle.

She's so cool.

"I'm sorry, Iara pero kailangan ko nang umalis. If I could stay a little longer, I would." Aniya matapos kong ihatid sa pinto.

"Basta dalaw ka ulit."

"I will." She said before holding both of my hands. "Just remember na mag-ingat ng mabuti dahil hindi nalang sarili mo ang dapat isipin. Don't stress yourself. Kung meron mang ikakabagabag ng loob mo, huminga ka ng malalim at kumalma. I know that you're sad... being bored and all but it'll pass. All will be worth it once you laid your eyes on your baby for the first time. The families little treasure is being carried by you. Take care of yourself at iwasang ma-stress."
