Natin...ang sarap pakinggan. Na sa bawat plano niya, kasama ako.


"Bakit hindi ka..dito nakatira?"


Natawa siya ng bahagya. "This is..our home. I can't stay here without you." He whispered.


Ganito pa talaga kapag buntis? Nagiging masyadong emotional?


"Did..you designed this?"


"Yes.." he whispered.


"Tour me...then." I smiled.


He pulled my hand as we entered our home.. Home... Damn it feels so nice.


The house isn't big and isn't small. Just like how we wanted it to be.. Yung magkikita kami ng pamilya araw-araw.


The details are so modernized in a sense that edges and curves were perfectly seen. From the walls up to the big glass windows, everything looked perfect.


There were four rooms all in all. I smiled when everything looked just like how we planned before...


One room for us.. One room for the guest room. Another room for the girls and another for boys.. Dahil kung magkakaanak kami gusto ko yung magkakasama ang babae at magkasama din ang lalaki, para mas tumatag ang bond nila sa isa't isa.


"It's perfect.." I whispered.


Mas namangha ako nang buksan niya ang glass sliding door. Sa backyard ay mayroong swimming pool at hindi gaanong malaking garden pero napakaganda.


Nathan hugged me from behind and it felt so warm and safe... A life with him that is perfectly imperfect is what I've been looking for.


A life that can be ugly but beautiful at the same time. I can never wish for anything better because just being with him is more than enough..


"We've been through worst and...yet here we are.. Back in each other's arms." I whispered.


He rested his chin on my left shoulders. I felt the tip of his nose on my cheek, I closed my eyes only to realized this isn't a dream.


"Where's your ring?"


I smiled. "I kept it." I answered.


He pulled my hand and brushed my finger.. My eyes widened when he slid a ring on it.


"Perfect..." He whispered.


"Marry me....again. This time, the world will know. We will no longer be a secret.. So please...marry me." He whispered.


Bumitaw ako sa pagkakayakap at tinignan sita sa mata. I nodded like a child.


"Y-yes... Kahit ilang beses mo pa ako alukin. Iisa ang sagot ko."


And in a swift motion, I felt his lips brushed on mine. It was so soft..and passionate.


Our kisses broke when we both heard a ring on my cellphone. I almost cursed whoever called me!


I answered it when I saw it was ate Dana. Agad akong kinabahan dahil baka may nangyaring masama sa ina.


"Bakit ate?"


"Kazee.. I'm asking you to stay away from media.."


"What? Why?"


"So you won't stress yourself. Please.. We're dealing it right now. Whatever you see on the news.. Don't worry about it."


Hindi ko alam kung susundin ko ba ng sinabi ng ate o hindi. Dahil pagkatapos ng tawag ay agad akong pumasok at pinaandar ang TV.


Shocked by the sudden news of my father backing out from the election. Mas ikinagulat ang nasabing rason.


Dahil sa naputol ng tuluyan ang engagement namin ni Jairo ay yun ang naipalabas na rason. We are both children of politician so that must be the reason why it is such a big deal.


Ang hindi ko inaasahan ay ng nahalungkat ang nangyari sa amin ni Nathan noon. I browsed my social media account and pictures of Nathan and I were the hottest issue.


It says that I broke up with Jairo because of Nathan which is true.. Lumabas din ang kidnapping case noon ni Nathan sa akin at ang katotohanang naikulong siya.


It was a fucking mess! But my mind wandered...my father... Is it really true that he's backing out? Hindi na siya tatakbo nitong eleksiyon?


What's the reason behind it?


"Let's stay here, Kazee. I'll fix this.. Please don't stress out."


Nathan assured me but I can't help but to worry. His name!


"I'll speak to...the media." matapang kong sambit.


"No.... Please. You're pregnant Kaz."


"This will all be cleared out once they'll know that we're married!"


"Kazee. Let me deal with this. I can fix this. Please don't stress yourself."


"Then...come with me! If you're too worried then let's have an exclusive interview."


He looked so defeated. He sighed and hugged me.


"Okay..okay.. Let's not fight....please. " He whispered.
