My Boss' Fling and First Love (On Edit)

Chapter 30 - Badly Need Help

Jai's POV

TAHIMIK LANG akong kumakain ng almusal habang iniisip kung papaano ko ba sasabihin kay Drake ang matagal ko nang pinag-isipan. I'm really nervous but at the same time, I wanted to set Amixel free too.

I just can't stop myself from thinking about what she might experiencing inside the jail to get those scars on her face. Masyado naman kasi ang pinagdadaanan niya para sa kasalanang kaya lang naman niya nagawa ay para may mapatunayan siya sa tatay niya na hindi man lang siya nagagawang paglaanan siguro ng oras.

"C'mon, Jai. I could feel that you got something to talk about, say it, I'll listen," Drake said making me stop for a second.

Napalunok ako saka uminom ng tubig at lumunok uli. I smiled at him awkwardly, making him chuckled. Huminga ako nang malalim bago nagpasyang magsalita.

"Can I ask where Amixel's mom is?" tanong ko sa pag-iisip na baka mabago ng sagot sa tanong na 'yan ang desisyon ko.

If Amixel still have her mother at her side, who was surely ready to love and give care for her, she won't be needing to ask his dad's attention by doing that mistake.

"Her mother died after gaving birth to her and Mr. Ortega can't accept her wife's death. As what I remember, he will always choose her wife to come back alive, than taking care of their daughter alone."

Naibaba ko ang tingin ko dahil sa lungkot na mas bumalot pa sa 'kin dahil sa sagot ni Drake. So that's the reason why Amixel did that. Walang taong handang samahan siya. Her dad only focuses on money, never on her.

"Can we take her out on jail?" I asked not thinking twice anymore. Buo na ang desisyon ko, this won't be bad, right?

Hindi ko iniwas ang tingin ko kay Drake dahil sa pagbabakasaling makakabasa ako ng kahit na anong reaksyon sa mgamata niya, but it's blank and it makes me to worry.

"Why not?"

My eyes widened when I hear him say say it, but I can't help but to smile. I didn't expected, but hell, I'm so glad!

"Are you sure?" I asked while doing my best to stop myself from standing up in my seat to come at his side and hug him.

"Yes," he said while biting a Green Apple too. Kumuha din ako ng isa pang slice at kumagat muna doon bago nagsalita.

"But Amixel poisoned your parents."

He looked at me as soon as I've said those words. Iniwas ko ang tingin ko sa kanya dahil sa pagsisising agad na naramdaman ko. Oh hell, I'm really an idiot, but I just want to make sure that I'm not the only one who wanted to set Amixel free.

Narinig ko siyang bumuntong hininga dahilan para dahan-dahan kong ibalik ang tingin ko sa kanya. Maybe, letting Amixel out from the jail is really hard for him. Sana'y hindi siya pumayag dahil lang sa mahal niya 'ko.

I sighed, I hate knowing that he really love me to the point that he'll agree for whatever decisions I'll make. Mas maganda kung pareho at sabay kaming bubuo ng bawat desisyon. I held his hand and gently rub my thumb into it.

"Hindi ko ipipilit ang desisyon ko kung ayaw mo talaga, Drake—"

"No, no, Jai," putol niya sa sasabihin ko at hinawakan ang dalawang kamay kong nakapatong sa lamesa.

"I understand. A part of me was still angry because of knowing to what Amixel did to my parents, but the other part of me wanted what was your heart wanted too," he said, making me smile. Drake got a lot of good characteristics with a good look too, and d.mn it, I'm really lucky for having him.

"Naiintindihan ko kung bakit niya nagawa 'yon. Sigurado din naman akong ito din ang gusto ng mga magulang ko. If there's someone who must suffer in jail, then that's her dad, who was definitely not in jail, but in hell," sabi niya na ikinatawa namin pareho.

He leaned to kiss my forehead. My eyes started to water. Bumakas pa ang gulat sa mata niya nang makitang lumuluha na 'ko. I chuckled to stop the tears of joy but I just can't help it. Drake is too much for me and I'll be forever grateful, for him choosing me, to show how great he truly is.

"Too happiness always make you cry," sabi niya saka pinunasan ang luha ko. His thumb caressed my cheeks. I held his hand and leaned my face to it.

"I love you," I said, making him smile wider.

"I love you more and much. My breath and life was you and our baby, Jai," sabi niya na nagpangiti at mas nagpaluha sa 'kin. That's the best sentence I'll forever repeat in every minutes in my life.

I WAS SMILING the moment I heard the gate opened. Napatingin ako kay Amixel na mas lumala pa ang itsura ngayon. Her eyes turned black downwards because of eyebags. Nand'on pa rin ang black eye niyang mas namaga dahil siguro sa hindi man lang ito nagagamot.

My heart pinched as she walked towards us slowly. Hindi pantay ang paglalakad niya kaya napansin kong namumula din ang kaliwa niyang binti.

I looked at Drake to ask for permission to come near her and he nodded. Saglit ko siyang nginitian bago muling tinignan at nilapitan si Amixel. She froze as soon as I held her back and elbow to give her some support while we're walking.

"Thank you, y-you don't know how much this means for me," sabi niya. Bakas sa boses niya ang pagpipigil nyang pumiyok.

I gave her a warm smile, making her smile too but her eyes became watery. Iniwas ko na lang ang tingin ko dahil ayokong magkaiyakan session na naman kami. Drake walk in front us, so Amixel and me stopped. Tumingin sa 'kin si Drake bago inilipat ang tingin kay Amixel.

"Ako na. You're pregnant, Jai," he said before gently guiding Amixel away from me. Napangiti ako at hinayaang mauna sila sa paglalakad.

I can't help the tears that was forming at the corner of my eyes because of realizing something. Nakakatawang isipin na sobra pa akong nagselos noon sa kanilang dalawa. I'm really glad, it seemed like we, three, can build a new relationships toward each other from now on.

I was about to walk but a pain made me stopped. Nawala ang ngiti ko at agad na napahawak sa tiyan ko nang makaramdam ng kakaibang kirot sa loob nito. Sigurado akong hindi 'to dahil sa sumisipa si baby!

Sh.t, my womb ached. My knees are involuntarily shaking.

I want to squeal but I don't want to make a scene here, but the pain is slowly killing me inside and out. Crap, this feeling is new and it really f.cking hurts!

"Ma'am, may problema po ba?" A policeman worriedly asked me. I was about to answer it but my voice turned out to be a loud scream. Oh sh.t, am I going to.. what am I thinking?

Napalunok ako at napahawak sa likuran ko. I badly need help, but I can't speak because of the pain that was covering me. I saw Drake finally walking back at my direction but my sentence made all the people around me gasped and stopped.

"D.mn it. Manganganak na 'ko!"
