He cursed enumerable times in his head. Lihim siyang napailing na may kasamang panguuyam sa sarili.Luscious remained physically casual and stoic, but he's actually cursing himself inside.'What the h*ll, Luscious!'"Get in," he said in a cold and authoritative tone, ironically to what he was feeling."Thank you, Sir." Hindi niya napaghandaan ang naging tipid nitong ngiti sa kaniyang ginawa. Luscious was mesmerized by her sheepish, yet genuine smile. Her eyes seemed twinkling, which caught him off guard.He felt like the heaven opened its door for him. It was actually the first time that Angel smiled for him. And oh boy, that made his heart do a thousand of summersaults! His heart started to thump erratically, like it's about to pop outside his chest. He inhaled and exhaled, trying to calm himself. Nahihirapan din siyang huminga dahil sa mabilis na pagtahip ng kaniyang didbdib.This feeling is so new to him. But he'

MAAGANG PUMASOK ng trabaho si Angel nang sumunod na araw. Hindi rin naman siya halos nakatulog dahil sa pagiisip kaya pinili niya na lamang na pumasok ng maaga para rin matapos agad ang mga trabaho sa opisina. Angel opened her computer to check all the tasks she had to do. Kailangan niya pa lang pumunta sa iilang departments para kunin ang mga kailangang permahan ni Luscious. Mabuti nang sadyain niya ito kesa naman sunod-sunod ang paglabas-masok at pagakyat-baba ng mga tao rito. Wala rin naman siyang mabigat na trabaho. She stretched her arms. Sinimulan niya nang mag-type para sa reports na pinapagawa sa kaniya. Pagkatapos nito ay gagawin niya pa ang presentation na kailangan ng kaniyang boss para sa susunod na araw. Mas mabuti nang matapos niya na ito nang hindi siya matambakan ng gawain. Angel was busy in front of the computer, when she heard footsteps on the cold tile floor. Awtomatikong nag-angat siya ng tingin para makita kung sino ang parating nang mabu

Natigilan siyang muli sa tanong nito. Buntis ba siya? She started to count the days after her last period. Then, her lips parted when a realization dawned on her. "Oh my God, gaga. Magkasunod lang tayo lagi ng period at dapat no'ng nakaraan pa 'yon!"Kusa silang nagkatitigan ni Jasmine. Their faces both blanched.Her period was already two weeks late. Gano'n rin halos ang kaniyang kaibigan."Oh my God. Oh my God!"Hindi niya alam kung anong iisipin at mararamdaman sa mga oras na iyon. Does this means, she's pregnant? Buntis siya?"We need to be sure first," Angel said, stuttering. Naging malikot ang kaniyang mata."May pregnancy test kits ako." "Then we'll both do it tomorrow. Mas effective daw 'yon kapag sa umaga."Jasmine nodded looking just fine, thWala sa loob na dinama niya ang kaniyang sinapupunan. Aasa na ba siyang magkaka-anak siya? Yes, Angel wanted to have a baby so bad, but she

Joy clasped her hands and smiled at them brightly. "This calls for a celebration!" she said in a singsing cheerful voice, yet still raspy from crying. "Ano speechless?" natatawang tanong nito nang hindi sila sumagot ni Jasmine.Pakiramdam niya ay nasa alapaap pa rin siya. Hindi pa rin siya nakakaget over. And not like she wanted to. Because Angel knew that she will never— like ever!"Celebration? Should we visit a doctor first?" Angel laughed inwardly."Of course we should! Tara na, bilis!" Excitement was evident on Joy's face."Saglit naman. Magayos muna kaya tayo," natatawang wika ni Jasmine."Huwag na! Kailangan niyo nang magpacheck-up para sa mga magiging pamangkin ko," reklamo ni Joy sa kanila."Nakapan-tulog pa kami, gaga!"Joy just rolled her eyeballs at what she said. "Fine, magbihis na kayo." Joy sighed in surrender, and crossed her arms impatiently before shooing them.Napailing na lamang siya bago

"Might!"Lalong naginit ang kaniyang ulo nang bumungad sa kaniya ang boses ng babaeng hindi niya kailanman gusto pang makita.He turned around to face Leslie who was grinning from ear to ear like a stupid Cheshire cat. She was beaming. And the sight irritated him even more. His eyes remained cold and unnerving. "What?" Luscious snapped at the woman who he considered as a friend before."I'm here to visit you." Leslie jumped like a child, and even hooked hi arm. "Here, I bought something for you."His eyebrows furrowed. Bumaba ang tingin niya sa hawak nitong paperbag. "You don't have to do that," he grunted, trying to get a grip of his wearing thin patience.Bagamat batid nito ang kaniyang inis ay nanatiling nakangiti ang dalagang tila walang pakialam."Of course, I do. I'm your fiancee. It's me taking care of you." Leslie squeezed his arm coquettishl
