(Yours Series # 5) Always Yours (COMPLETED)

Chapter 28

"Ang alin?" he asked, closing the gap between us and standing right in front of me.

I pointed at the piece of trash on the floor. "I couldn't. I've been trying for minutes."

He was looking at me with such bewilderment in his eyes. I began to bawl my eyes out kasi alam ko na ang weird ng iniiyakan ko but I couldn't stop myself! My hormone's still going crazy and it's just going to get more crazy once I give birth!

Chester picked up the trash.

"Thank you," I said with tears in my eyes habang inaabot niya sa akin iyong kalat. "I miss cleaning so much..." I continued.

"Gracey," he replied. "I love how weird you are. Never change," he added as he planted a kiss on my forehead.

"Gusto ko talaga maglinis but I can't even bend kahit konti."

"Oh, I know," he replied and I frowned because I knew he was talking about the bedroom! As if naman choice ko 'yon. Hello, pregnant over here?

I groaned. "Hate you."

He chuckled. "No, you don't," he said, kissing me on the lips again. "What do you want me to do?"

"I don't know. Gusto ko lang namang maglinis," I said.

"Kailangan mo ba talagang yumuko? May vacuum naman?"

"May mga kalat na hindi nakukuha ng vacuum," I explained. "Plus paano ko pupunasan iyong coffee table?" I asked and then explained to him my process kung paano ako naglilinis dito sa apartment. Palibasa madalas dadating siya rito na malinis na. May system na nga ako, e. Kapag dumating siya na nakasindi iyong candle sa may coffee table, it meant na ayoko na galawin niya iyong bagong linis. Kapag hindi naman, feel free to lounge around. He actually came up with the idea since sabi nila minsan daw sobrang linis and organized na nakakahiyang maupo sa couch.

"Okay," he said. "What can I do?"

"I don't know," I replied. "Can you clean?"

"Of course."

"I'll watch."

His forehead creased and his lips parted a little. "Pardon?"

"You clean and I'll watch," I said.

"Okay... This sounds a bit sexual for some reason."

My eyes widened. "Chester!"

"What? Totoo naman."

"I was asking you to clean, not to strip naked!"

"Might as well," he said. "You'll ask me to bend down."

"Para pumulot ng kalat!"

He dismissively waived his hand. "Tomatoe, tomato."

"Gosh, your mind!"

He just shook his head while he was grinning. "Kunin ko lang walis. Ano ba'ng una kong gagawin?"

"Hindi ko alam na tuloy. You made it sound so weird."

"I mean... you wanted to watch me clean. It is weird."

"No, it's not."

"I love you, but it is weird," he said. "But I'll still do it because I do love you."

I wrinkled my nose. This guy's getting too comfortable throwing those three words. Lagi tuloy akong kinikilig!

"Tell me when I need to bend over."

"Chester!" I admonished pero tinawanan niya lang ako.

This guy, really!

I made him vacuum all over the apartment tapos pinagpunas ko rin siya ng mga surface. He was in the middle of reorganizing the pantry when I called his name.

"May mali ba akong nagawa?" he asked while holding the container of our rice.

I shook my head. "I think my water just broke," I replied as I stared at him with my eyes wide open.

Internally, I was already panicking. I knew naman na hindi exact iyong due date na binibigay and I was due one of these days, but still, when you're in the exact moment, it felt like all the preparations we did just flew out the window!

And I thought that Chester would probably panic, too, instead, he drew a deep breath, looked me in the eye, and said, "Can't wait to meet our baby."
