The Accidental Sperm Donor { Complete }

Chapter 16

 "If you love me like you tell me please be careful with my heart.

If you take it then don't break it or my world will fall apart.."

Kanta ko habang nagtitimpla ng kape sa office pantry. It was 3 pm on a Wednesday at medyo inaantok kaya ito coffee coffee din pag may time. I was humming the chorus as I stir the cup of coffee on my hand nakakalagyan ko lang ng creamer at asukal.

"Oi, I smell love in the air."

Napalingon ako sa nagsalita and there on the door was Jane smiling at me.

"Wala naman akong na aamoy ah." Sabi ko sa kanya then took a sip on my coffee.

"Talaga?" She arched an eyebrow at me. "Kasi ako amoy na amoy ko, mas grabe pa sa amoy ng kape na hawak mo."

"Talaga lang ha?" I said with sarcasm.

Lumapit siya sa akin na may pilyong ngiti sa mga labi. "May nangyari ba ulit sa inyo? Magkakaroon na ba si Mia ng kapatid?" She wiggled her eye brow as she ask.

I feel my cheeks heat up by what she said. Grabe talaga tong si Jane, napakabulgar. "Wala no!"

"Weeeh? Di nga? Eh bakit parang lutong kamatis ang mukha mo ngayon?" She teased. "Umamin ka na Kate, I won't judge you naman. Kahit siguro ako ay matetempt talaga na tikman si Sir Tristan, ang yummy kaya niya."

"Oi, wag mo akong itulad sayo." I muttered defensively as I took another sip of my coffee.

"Defensive." She said as she rest her back on the wall beside me. "Halata na kaya kayong dalawa na may something going on between the two of you."

I stop midway of my sip and rest the rim of the cup on the bottom of my lips and look at her curiously. "Anong pinagsasabi mo? Anong halata?"

"Oi, painosente ang lola." She chuckled as she took her cup on the cabinet and filled it with water. "Halos pinag-uusapan na nga kayo sa office ever since noong Monday."

"Kailan ba kami hindi pinag.usapan?" I asked her bitterly. Eversince kasi na nalaman ng lahat na si Tristan ang ama ng anak ko plus naging PA pa niya ako plus pa na lagi kaming sabay dumating kung umaga ay naging summation na kami ng mga gossip ng mga tao sa office.

"Pero iba na to dear!" She exclaimed after she drank her water. "Hindi na negative ang pinag-uusapan nila kasi ang blooming nyong dalawa ng dumating kayo noong Monday sa office. Yong parang in love na in love lang."

"Parang, take note, parang in love." I took another sip. "Kasi hindi naman totoo."

"Bakit hindi totoo? Mahirap bang mahalin si Sir Tristan o masyadong bato lang ng puso mo?" She asked bluntly.

I stop drinking and look down on the brown fluid inside of the cup. Hindi ko alam ang isasagot ko. Hindi naman kasi mahirap mahalin si Tristan at parang hindi naman bato ang puso ko. The truth is, I am already falling for the guy. But there is still something in me that was doubting and afraid with this whole situation of ours. Parang may nagsasabi sa isip ko na it was not yet the right time for us.

"It's complicated." I mumbled as I look up to her.

"Haist! Ang dami mo talangang drama dear." She shook her head as she said this. "Alam mo ang love hindi naman komplikado, minsan tayong mga taong in love ang nagpapacomplicate ng situation. Just let your heart decide and things will just fall on the right place. Wag mong pigilan ang sarili mo na mahalin ang taong alam mong mahal mo na. Kasi baka dumating ang araw na mawala na ang tao na yon at pagsisihan mo na hindi mo nasabi sa kanya o di kaya naparamdam man lang ang pagmamahal mo."

"Opo, Papa Jane." I teased her pero sa totoo lang medyo na sapol ata ako sa sinabi niya.

"Gaga!"
