Chapter 49

Angelica

Walter and I went to the OB and we learned that our little fetus was still 3 days old. Which means I need to be extra careful.

"Should I cancel my shoot in New York?"

I laughed at Walter. It's his first time being a dad, it's my first time being a mom too, but he's just so careful like the way he held me it was as if I was a very fragile vase. "Love, I'll be fine, you heard what doctora said, I should just avoid stress, since being stressed can lead to miscarriage, but we can still go to New York, riding a plane won't hurt me or the baby, I am pregnant not disabled or injured. Even disabled and injured people ride the plane, it's gonna be fine, and besides we'll come home after a few days"

I held his hand and gave him a smile, he looked worried still, but still managed to give me a smile. I know he's just looking out for me and our little angel.

"If you say so, but we'll stay there for 3 days only, and we'll come back home, and you should stop working, Nostra can take care of his company and besides we're gonna tell your dad" kinabahan ako sa sinabi ni Walter. My dad doesn't know we're already together, and besides I am pregnant, and not married to the man who got me pregnant, who happens to be my boyfriend. Dad is very old school, he might push me to Walter, but that is it. He helped me get Walter back, but that doesn't mean he'll not be upset about me getting pregnant without getting married first. Pati si mommy.

"Ba't ka natahimik? Are you in pain? Nasusuka ka ba?"

"Kinakabahan lang ako, we're not married, and I'm pregnant. I don't know how my parents will react." he held my hand while his other hand was on the steering wheel, "Love, it'll be fine ako na ang bahala" I just smiled back at him pero sa totoo lang, kinakabahan ako. I don't know what Walter's plans are. I don't even know if he's gonna marry me or what. I mean, we just knew that I'm pregnant today so I guess I'm gonna have to just wait. This is so stressful. I can't help but overthink. I mean...I shouldn't overthink kasi alam ko naman na paninindigan ako ni Walter, ang akin lang naman eh what if he's still not sure about me, and I'm pregnant. What if he's not ready to be a dad yet? What if he wants the baby, but he's still not ready to marry me? What if he wants us both, pero mag iba ang isip nya?

We're on our way back to Walter's house for our flight to New York, we decided to stay in New York for 4 days. Pina ayos na din ni Walter sa katulong nila ang mga gamit nila, we'll just change and we'll go straight to the airport. Walter was extra careful with me while we went out of his car. Nang pumasok kami sa bahay nila it was quiet, na sa swimming area daw sila tita, kaya naman ay nag bihis lang ako nang t shirt at jeans, pati din si Walter. We went out to the swimming area para magpaalam na sa family ni Walter. We bid his family goodbye, pinadalhan din ako ni tita ng kung ano ano, for the baby daw, we brought a lot of things on our way to New York buti na lang at may private plane si Walter and we can bring some bodyguards with us. We boarded the plane immadiately when we reached the airport, 16 hours away from New York so we'll arrive at JFK Airport at 6am in the morning. Walter was on his laptop because he's working, ako naman ay nagbabasa lang ng libro. It took me a few minutes before I dozed off.

16 hours later:

We arrived at JFK Airport at exactly 6:30 in the morning, kinuha kami nang isa sa mga staff ni Walter dito sa New York na pina una nya nang pina punta dito yesterday. The place we're staying in is already ready, for today marami kaming pupuntahan since we have a schedule already for today na hinanda para sa amin, Walter just deducted some activities since I'm pregnant. I actually feel sleepy pero gusto kong kumain. We are now in our hotel room. Walter is still freshening up while I'm here sitting at the terrace while looking at the city. Our view at our terrace is the famous Times Square. We're staying at a luxury hotel, all of our expenses will be paid by Forbes and Vogue. Chosen expenses, hindi talaga lahat lahat, Walter and I can afford naman, hindi nalang din namin tinanggihan, Walter and I needed to visit the studio for the clothes he'll be wearing tomorrow, they insisted na pumunta sya sa studio today for the final fitting, mama's personal stylist already gave them Walter's measurements but still it would be better na susukatin nya, since tomorrow will be his photoshoot, we'll be interviewed as well in a talk show, since Walter is one of the most sought after bachelors. It's like he's a celebrity, sa gwapo nya naman of course a lot of females would wanna be his wife. He's been linked to models, celebrities, business women, lawyers, and other professionals, but it was all chismis, oh diba may mga chismosa din naman abroad.

Walter went out of the bathroom fully clothed, I was done freshening up, so we decided to go to the studio na. I just wore a white simple Chanel dress, paired with a black Armani coat, and Chanel flats. Walter on the other hand just wore a simple while long sleeve shirt, and slacks. Ganyan talaga sya tuwing lalabas kami, he only wears t shirt kapag na sa bahay kami, madalas ay naka polo sya o minsan naka long sleeves, or suit. I like him more naman sa mga clothes na ginagamit nya. Makes him look more manly and powerful.

We went to the studio and we were welcomed by one of the staff, agad kaming pinapasok sa dressing room para kay Walter. I saw a woman wearing a skimpy red dress, with scary red lips, and long stilettos.

"OMG GRAY!" tili ng babae. Oh God sino na naman toh?

She was about to hug Walter, pero agad namang pumalag si Walter. Aba dapat lang!

"You're soooo mean, that's what I like about you." she smiled at him in a seductive way, she looked foreign and sounded foreign. I was taller than her though. I raised a brow at he when she looked at me from head to foot, "Who's this woman with you? Is she a cousin? A relative perhaps? I'm Aly Beck. I'm Gray's girlfriend" I laughed a bit when I heard her last words.

I shook her hand "I'm Walter's girlfriend, I'm also the mother of his child. Aly Beck right? You're the daughter of Mr. Beck the bankrupt businessman, and your mother is Lusiana Mariano, known for being a celebrity and drug addict right?"

Of course I knew this woman, his dad was a business partner of Felix, Felix pulled out all of his shares in their company due to the scandals Mr. Beck got involved in. Nawala ang ngiti sa mga labi ni Aly Beck ng marinig nya ang sinabi ko "You're a model right? Known for being the mistress of Xing Suyen a 45 year old businessman" of course there were some people around us and I am very sure they heard what I said. Poor Aly went out of the room quickly and I smiled at everyone "Shall you guys start the final wardrobe fitting for Mr. Arkinson, I have a fetus to feed" I said and smiled. All of them started doing their thing while Walter shook his head and smiled. Never mess with a hungry woman.
