chapter 25

Aida's POV

"The whole country is talking about what happened on the birthday of a famous director, Theodore Ferrer, and his unico ijo, Terizla Ferrer. On the same birthday, director Theodore seemed to think that his son wanted Farrah Lei Dizon, who is Terizla Ferrer's partner in their new show. When the Actor objected to his father's statement that he wanted Farrah even though it's a false, the Director did ask who she was dating, a woman suddenly appeared on the scene and said that she was the young man's fiancee and the actor did not deny it. But what made the news even hotter was who was the girl who appeared there and was she really their child? Today, the media is still trying to find out the truth and it is said that there will be a press conference tomorrow for the director to explain the truth with his son. Again, I am Laiza Lyca Cruz reporting for the whole country only here at BALITACHISMIS NEWS!"

Pagkatapos mapanood ang balita ay agad pinatay ni Terizla ang TV. Ipinatong niya ang remote sa mesa atsaka tumingin sa gawi ko.

"You coming tomorrow?" I asked and hold his hand. Binigyan niya ako ng isang ngiti at hinawakan ang kamay ko din. Bahagya siyang bumuntong hininga bago tumango.

"I have to. It's the only way to let people know about you and Anatacia. Isa pa, sa loob ng dalawang buwan magpapakasal na tayo. I want to quit showbiz and focus on my small business and specially to focus on you and our daughter. Let's build our own family together. You, me and Anatacia, let's start our life once we got married. I can't wait to call you my wife and to change your surname. I love you, honey. I know we will have a hard time with what is happening now but I also know that we can get through it. So let’s get through it together." the words that came from him makes me cry not in sadness but in happiness. Why? Kasi alam kong tama ang naging desisyon ko na bigyan siya ng isa pang pagkakataon.

Malaki ang binago ni Terizla at talaga sinsero siya sa mga binibitawan niyang salita sa'kin. Alam kong darating ang araw na magiging payapa at masaya ang buhay namin. I know we can get through it.

"I'm right here, Honey. We're stronger together. I love you." I gave him a kiss on his lips and hug him tight. Gumanti naman siya ng yakap sa'kin kaya napangiti ako. Let's fight together. For our family.

KINABUKASAN maagang bumangon si Terizla at inihanda ang sarili niya. Maaga rin akong bumangon upang magluto ng almusal para sa amin. Bandang alas siyete ng umaga ay nagising rin si Anatacia. Sasama kami sa press conference ngayon para magkalinawan na ang lahat. Nang maluto ang agahan ay agad din kaming kumain at tsaka umalis.

Pagkarating sa Starlight Hotel kung saan gaganapin ang Press conference ay inalalayan ako ni Terizla pababa ng sasakyan. Nang makababa ako ay binuhat niya si Anatacia at sinara ang pinto ng sasakyan.

"Are you ready, honey?" He asked me. I look at him and nodded.

"Mommy, daddy, why are we here again? Does Grandpa's birthday hasn't done yet?" Anatacia innocently asked. Nagkatinginan naman kami ni Terizla dahil sa tanong nito.

"Uhm, sweetie, we're here for a conference. The media will interview Me and Grandpa today. You're here to cheer for daddy and to support me." Terizla said and caresses Anatacia's hair. Bigla namang lumiwanag ang itsura ni Anatacia.

"So I'm going to see Grandpa po???!!" Ramdam sa pananalita ni Anatacia ang tuwa. Tumango si Terizla bilang sagot.

Agad kaming pumasok sa loob at dumiretso sa conference hall. Pagkarating doon ay binuksan ko ang pinto at agad tumambad ang napakaraming media. Picture dito, picture doon. Puro flash ng camera ang bumungad sa'min. Agad naman silang pinaatras ng nga kaibigan ni Terizla na nandito din sa hall. Ibinaba ni Terizla si Anatacia kaya hinawakan ko ang kamay nito. Binigyan ako ng ngiti ni Terizla bago siya umalis at umupo sa harap kung saan nakaharap siya sa'min. Umupo naman kami ni Anatacia at hinintay ang pagdating ni Tito Theodore.
