Start from the beginning
                                        

R: Basta ako ng bahala. Just make sure the chopper will be ready as soon as I get out of Bulaga. I still want to make it on time sa Sta. Rosa for the event then make sure I get back on time for her surprise party tomorrow night.

S: Yes po boss, all systems go tayo bukas.

R: *hears the click of the lock opening* ay Kuya sige na bukas na bye. *quickly shutting off his cp* Hello Ma.. *grins at M as the door opens*

M: *looks briefly but pointedly at R then ignores him, goes straight to bed, pulls the blanket over her waist and turns her back on RJ*

R: Ma.. hindi ka man lang mag good night sakin?

M: Good night *still with her back turned*

R: Ma naman.. ba't ganyan goodnight mo? *wraps his arm around her waist*

M: *still ignoring R*

R: Hay o sige, kung ayaw mo sakin mag good night pwede bang ako nalang mag goodnight sa baby ko? *rubbing his palm against her still-flat 12 week old baby belly*

M: *makes a huffing sound then turns to lie flat on her back*

R: *crouches down to her tummy* baby ko, sleep ka na ha. Pasensya na may sumpong lang ng konti si Mommy kasalanan ni Daddy eh. Tell Mommy, Daddy is sorry and I will make it up to her promise.

M: Hmph!

R: Sleep na baby ko, grow big and strong ka muna dyan sa tummy ni Mommy ha. Then pag ready ka na you'll stay with us here outside. You are our happiness baby ko, and Mommy looks good with you. Daddy and Mommy loves you so much. Good night and sweet dreams baby *kisses M's tummy, then raised his eyes to look at M who is staring at him now*

M: *getting teary-eyed*

R: Oh ba't ka naiiyak?

M: Ikaw kasi eh! *as her tears started to fall*

R: Sorry na Love, sorry na I will make it up to you I promise. When I make a promise I always keep it.

M: Nakakainis ka!

R: Babawi ako promise. Babawi ako. I love you.. *kisses M's lips*

M: Naiinis pa din ako sayo.

R: *chuckles* Lagi ka naman naiinis sakin kahit walang dahilan eh. Ako target ng paglilihi mo eh.

M: Basta galit pa din ako syo! Di mo na ko mahal. Palibhasa buntis na ko, di na ko maganda tapos nagiging balyena na ko kaya di na ko importante sa yo! *cries*

R: Huy Mahal ko, that's not true! Ano ka ba? You are still and will always be the prettiest woman in my eyes. Lalo na ngayon na you are carrying our baby, ang ganda ganda mo kaya! Pinaghirapan kita suyuin ha, naalala mo pa akala ko talaga katapusan ko na nung naglabas ng baril yung uncle mo nung nagpapaalam palang ako sa pamilya mo na manliligaw sayo. Jusko di mo naman sinabi may Uncle ka pala sa militar at favorite pamangkin ka pa! Daig ko pa yata dumaan sa butas ng karayom dun! Tapos iniisip mo basta nalang kita bibitawan ng ganun? No way! At ba't kita iiwanan lalo ngayong buntis ka? Tagal kong nagdasal bago ka biniyaya ng langit para sakin. Pinakasalan kita uy bago pa ko dyan nag araro, nagtanim at nagbunga! Yang mga kalokohang naiisip mo di yan totoo alisin mo lahat yan.

M: Ewan ko sayo! Basta galit ako syo!*cries some more*

R: Mahal naman stop crying na masakit sa dibdib whenever I see you cry. I promise to make it up to you. I promise. I love you so much Nicomaine, never ever forget that. *kisses her forehead*

M: *turns to snuggle on his armpit and continues to sniffle and cry until she fell asleep*
