His mood lit up when I mentioned 'pregnant'. "Then I'll be the happiest man alive," he chuckled. "Seriously, oo ganon na nga, baby. Pero siyempre, kaligayahan mo parin ang priority ko. If you're not ready, then I'm not too. Being a parent is a huge responsibility. Let's have them when we're both ready." His gentle words soothe my heart. One of the reason why I loved him so much.

Rome, the man who once seemed cold and untouchable, now radiated warmth and vulnerability. "You’re going to be an amazing father, Rome. I know it," bulong ko.

“Dati pa lang, pangarap ko ng magkaroon ng sariling pamilya. 'Yung ako ang tatay talaga. I just didn't expect it to happen this early in my life. Pero nandito na. Ang pinagbubuntis mo ay ituturing ko ng anak. Para maging pamilya na talaga tayong tatlo, ang una dapat nating gawin ay magpakasal.” Imbes na mawala ang pagkakakunot ng aking noo, mas lalo lang iyon nadagdagan dahil sa litanya nya ngayon.

Wala kang pwede itago sa akin, Avery. Lahat ay malalaman at malalaman ko rin," he mocked me. I burst out in anger and so much frustration. Damn. He shouldn't know. He shouldn't.

Kumatok ako at pinapasok naman niya ako agad. "Pasensya na po kung hindi kami nagingat. Pasensya na po kung ngayon ko pa kayo dinisappoint." sabi ko habang nakaluhod sa harapan ni Daddy. "Nasa tamang edad ka na. Kung mag aasawa ka at bubuo ng pamilya hahayaan kita. Hindi ko lang inaasahan na sa ganito ko pa malalaman." Sabi naman ni Daddy.
