83: The flying cakes

SAM'S POV

"Sam? Are you okay? Gusto mo bang maupo muna ngayon?"

I heard Suzy awkwardly asked that as she hold my forearm.

I didn't talked and just stayed muted. Because I am not fine. And I don't think I'd be fine soon.

My father.. kilala ni Cameron ang ama ko and he even want to see me now.

I want to feel excited with that but I can't. I just can't when all this time, Cameron had already know about this pero hindi man lang ito nag-abalang sabihin 'yon sa'kin. Another reason for me to never go back to that bastard para panagutan ako. And another reason for me to doubt na magkakaroon pa ng tahimik na buhay ang magiging anak ko.

At kung pananagutan man nya'ko, I don't want to live with a man who will always keep me in a dark. Na laging nagsisinungaling sa'kin.

I don't want a man like that.

With bated breath, I held Suzy's arm for support before I started to walk to where I had parked the car I used coming here. I need Suzy's support now dahil hindi ko na halos maaninag ang nilalakaran ko ngayon with my tears blinding my eyes, threatening to fall anytime on my cheeks now dahil sa posibleng pagsisinungaling nito sa'kin. Lalo na't parang naiintindihan ko na ngayon kung bakit ayaw na ayaw nyang makausap ko man lang si Enriquez nitong mga nakaraang linggo.

With those conclusions I've come up in my head, I bit my inside cheeks hard to stop my tears from falling habang mahigpit na nakakapit sa kaliwang braso ni Suzy who was kind enough to hold me.

Kailangan kong makapag-isip ng tama.. kailangan kong mapag-isa because I think I'd go mad in no time kapag hindi ko man lang magagawa 'yon. And if I go talk to that bastard now, hindi ko alam kung mapipigilan ko man lang ang sarili ko na hindi man lang mapuruhan ang gagong 'yon if I saw his face -----

My murderous thoughts were suddenly interrupted when a raging black car suddenly screeched in a halt before us, ceasing whatever I had in my mind.

Kahit gusto ko ng pagbuntunan ng galit ang kung sinumang tarantadong driver ng itim na sasakyan na'yon, I opted to just ignore that car saka patuloy lang sa paglalakad. I was about to turn to my right para iwasan ang sasakyang 'yon but I halted with my steps nang bigla ng bumukas ang pintuan ng sasakyang 'yon, revealing its driver.. It's damn driver who made my blood to instantly boiled up at his sight. Kahit medyo malabo ang paningin ko, alam kong siya 'yon. I couldn't be mistaken with that!

"Mr.  Del Fuero!" Suzy exclaimed beside me pagkakita sa kanya.

"Samantha, let's talk." Bungad agad nito sa'kin saka lalapit na sana sa'min but there's no way I'd ever allow him to step even a meter close to me!

"Wag kang lalapit!"

He halted in his steps pagkasigaw ko palang nun sa kanya, making him frowned at me in confusion.

Oh! May ganang pa talaga itong maguluhan ngayon when he himself knows my reasons why!

"Samantha.. What's wrong? May masakit ba sa katawan mo ngayon?"

Hindi ko maiwasang mapamura sa isipan ko when the bastard had even asked that with worries in his voice as his eyes scanned my body up and down, probably to check for any injuries.

This shit! Akala nya siguro madadala nya ko sa pag-aalala nya ngayon!

"Okay lang ako at walang masakit sa'kin ngayon kaya umalis kana rito! I don't want to see your damn face ever again! So go to hell, bastard!" Then with that, mabilis na'kong naglakad palapit sa dala-dala kong sasakyan. Suzy was still following my lead habang bitbit pa rin nito ang mga pagkaing inorder namin kanina.

"Samantha.. you can't make me leave here without you. May problema ba? May nangyari ba kanina kaya naiinis ka sa'kin ngayon?" Rinig kong habol nito sa'min, obviously hindi nito maintindihan ang sinabi kong ayokong makita ito!

With gritted teeth, Hindi ko nalang ito pinansin and just continued with my steps kahit na gusto ko ng paputukan ito ng baril ngayon. Good thing I hadn't brought my gun with me today so he's safe. For now. Pero kapag hindi pa ito aalis ngayon din, hindi ko lang alam kung anong magagawa ko sa kanya.

"Please listen to me, Samantha. Did our baby makes you behave like this now? Pinahihirapan ka ba nya?"

That made me halted with my steps pagkarinig sa bagay na'yon. Not that I'm surprised with him calling me 'honey' but because of my pregnancy being brought up today.

So he knows? Alam nyang buntis ako at parang hindi man lang ito nagulat na nabuntis nya ko, so this could only mean one thing!

He was just indeed lying to me all this time!

At that thought, hindi ko na napigilan ang sarili at galit ng humarap agad sa kanya.

"Oo. Buntis ako, gago." Nanggagalaiting sagot ko sa kanya habang mahigpit na nakakuyom ang mga kamay ko.

"Buntis ako at kasalanan mo ito, manloloko!!"

Surprise instantly flickered across his face pagkasigaw ko dun. Probably now realizing why I'm pretty mad at him right now.

"Samantha.. I didn't mean to--"

"Wag ka sabing lumapit sa'kin!"

Again, he halted on his steps nang bigla ko ng isigaw yon when he was about to come near me again.

"Sinabi mo sa'kin na baog ka kaya hindi na natin kailangan pa ng proteksyon pero niloko mo lang pala ako!"

Mas lalo pang napatda ito pagkasigaw ko nun. Making him looked more alarm now.

"Samantha, please.. Calm down okay? Don't shout. That isn't good to our baby kaya kumalma ka muna." The bastard tried to calm me down kahit na mas lalo lang nitong pinaiinit ang ulo ko ngayon.

And when again, he attempted to take a step closer to me, tuluyan na'kong hindi nakapagtimpi.

"Suzy?"

"Yes?" She quickly answered beside me pagkasambit ko sa pangalan nya.

"Akin na nga muna yang mga dala mo." I demanded as I held out my hand at her way, wanted her to hand me those paperbag na nasa mga kamay nito.

"Ah..kakain ka ba ngayon Sam to relieve your stress?"

That made me smirked at her comment habang matalim paring nakatingin sa gagong nasa harapan ko.

"No. Hindi ako kakain, Suz but yes, you're right. I want to relieve my stress right now and I already have an idea kung paano gawin 'yon."

His forehead creases at that as utter confusions was written all over his face now. Pero agad naman yong napalitan ng pagkataranta when realization hit him.

Siguro dahil alam nitong may gagawin akong hindi kaaya-aya ngayon.

"Samantha.. Anong iniisip mong gawin ngayon?" He queried with warning in his voice.

I just sarcastically smirked at him and then with gritted teeth, agad ko ng hinablot ang isang nakabalot na pagkain mula sa kamay ni Suzy before I fished out the slice of Mocha cake. Making his eyes to bulge out in horror at the sight of it. Probably now reading kung anong balak kong gawin sa kanya.

CAMERON'S POV

Seeing her with an evil smirk on her lips, parang alam ko na ang plano nitong gawin ngayon.

She's planning to attack me with those disgusting cakes in her hand! Goodness with this woman!

"Samantha! Stop whatever you're planning to do now! You can't be serious with ---"

Before I could even complete my sentence, my eyes widened more in horror nang may lumipad ng pagkain patungo sa gawi ko. And if I won't duck, siguradong sa mukha ko ito tatapon.

Holy heavens! Mukhang galit na galit nga ito ngayon dahil sa pagsisinungaling ko sa kanya tungkol sa pagiging baog ko!

"Owww...my....God!" I heard Suzane beside her exclaimed that in horror dahil dun.

Ignoring her shout, I quickly dodged that flying cake para hindi matamaan ang mukha ko. And seeing me able to dodge that attack, mukhang mas sumiklab pa lalo ang galit nito ngayon sa'kin.

"Samantha!" I called out nang maiwasan ko na ang unang atakeng 'yon.

But I think she was too mad right now para mapigilan ko man lang ito ngayon.

"Walang hiya kang gago ka! Niloko mo'ko! Sinabi mong baog ka pero hindi naman pala! Manloloko!" Galit pang asik nito and before I could even utter an explanation, another cake was now flying to my way.

Nalintikan na talaga!

"Alam mong hindi pa'ko handang magkaanak pero anong ginawa mo??! Niloko mo kong bweset ka at pinaniwala mo'kong baog kang litse ka!" Sigaw na naman nito, now shouting that habang umiiyak na.

And seeing her crying now, hindi maikakailang galit nga talaga ito dahil sa pagsisinungaling ko sa kanya. Gusto kong lapitan at yakapin ito ngayon but thinking that it would be safe for me if I'll stay away from her for now, pinili ko nalang na wag muna itong lapitan at hayaan itong makapaglabas ng sama ng loob by playing those cakes.

People around witnessing this scene were now buzzing around us. Looking at us with great interests in their eyes. And I'm certain, lalabas na naman ito mamaya sa balita if I won't stop her now.

"Let me atleast explain it to you okay? Kumalma ka muna. Hindi magandang nagpapadala ka sa galit mo. Baka mapano pa ang baby natin. Do you want that?"

"Ang baby natin????! Parang hindi ka man lang nagulat na nagbunga ang pagsisinungaling mo sa'kin!!! Talagang niloko mo nga ko!"

And then with that, muli na naman itong humugot ng pagkain mula sa hawak-hawak nitong paperbag before a few slices of cakes flying to my way again.

Taranta ko ng inilagan ang mga 'yon. I muttered a curse when the ube cake almost hit me on my head, good thing I was quick enough to duck in kaya naman ang sasakyan ko sa likuran ko ang natamaan nito.

The ground and my car behind me were now covered with different flavors of cakes. Anyone would think na umuulan ng pagkain ngayon and I was the luckiest man who had experienced that rain.

I was able to heave out a relief sigh nang maubos na ang laman ng hawak nitong paper bag, the chance that I waited para malapitan ito ngayon.

"Samantha, huminahon ka muna okay? Binibiro lang naman kita dun sa pagiging baog ko----"

"Binibiro??? Biro lang yon sa'yo when I had told you na hindi pa'ko handang magkaanak hangga't hindi ko pa nabubuo ang pagkataao ko! But what? Anong ginawa mong tarantado ka??? Binuntis mo'ko!!!!" Galit na galit pang sigaw nya with her tears now staining her cheeks.

The reason why I wanted to go near her and calm her down now dahil baka ano pang mangyari rito.

I was about to take a step towards her but I was stopped again when she talked again habang umiingos ito.

"Alam mong mahalaga sa'kin na mabuo ang pagkatao ko and now, malalaman ko nalang that all this time, kilala mo rin pala ang tunay kong ama but then you have chosen to keep it from me when I deserved to know that!"

That made me stood frozen on my feet pagkarinig sa bagay na'yon. Looking at her with wide surprised eyes, surprised hearing that from her.

She knows!

I just stood rooted on my feet, not once moving from there habang natitigilang nakatingin lang sa kanya.

Alam na nya..then could this be possible na nalaman nya 'yon mula kay Suzy?

With that conclusion in my mind, my gaze swiftly shifted to the woman beside her na agad namang napatingin sa'kin.

"Sinabi mo sa kanya?"

"No. I didn't." Agad na kaila nito with a shook of her head.

"Then sino? Sinong nangahas na sabihin yon sa---"

"Enriquez. Enriquez told me that, Cameron kaya 'wag mong tingnan ng ganyan si Suzy ngayon like she had made a grievous sin to you. Like she had lied to you gaya ng ginawa mo!"

My gaze snapped to her way when I heard her hissed that while wiping her tears from her eyes.

"Sinabi nya sa'kin and now, alam ko na ngayon na alam mo nga ang tungkol dun. Talagang matagal mo na nga akong niloloko! I wonder if how many more lies you've been keeping from me habang nakakulong lang ako sa pamamahay mo, Cameron. Marami ba? Sabihin mo sa'kin ngayon din."

I can't talk. I never lose words in any argument before but now, now that this woman was asking me this na alam kong mas ikakagalit nya pa lalo ang magiging sagot ko, mas mabuti pang tumahimik na lamang ako than won this argument now.

Kasalanan to ng tarantadong Enriquez na'yon! Talagang hindi nya pinalampas ang pagkakataon kanina na makausap nya ito!

Just thinking that asshole, napapamura na lamang ako sa isipan ko.

Mas lalo pang dumami ngayon ang nakikiusyusong mga tao sa paligid namin at kapag hinayaan ko pang magtagal kami rito, talagang magkakagulo na naman ang media nito mamaya.

Sighing exasperatedly, hindi ko na muna sinagot ang gusto nyang malaman saka akma ko na naman itong nilapitan to take her home and talk about this at home ng walang ibang taong nakikinig. Ayokong lumabas na naman ito mamaya sa balita and let the media feasted her about this issue.

"Let's talk about this at home, Samantha. Let's----"

"No. Wala tayong dapat pag-usapan pa ngayon. Hindi na'ko babalik sa bahay na'yon para lokohin mo na naman."

Napatigil na naman ako sa akmang paglapit ko sa kanya when she stonily answered that.

"I would never allow that! Pag-uusapan natin to and-------"

"Suzy?"

Napapatiim nalang ako ng bagang when she just keep cutting me off! Hindi ko mapapayagang umalis ito ngayon at hindi man lang nya naririnig ang paliwanag ko! I'd rather make her more mad at me now than let them leave with my baby!

"Yeah?" Suzy answered her sabay lapit sa kanya.

"Hand me the other paperbag now."

When she ordered that without taking her deadly red eyes from me, my gaze shifted to the paperbag na ngayo'y iniaabot na ng babae sa kanya.

Another food-bullets to attack me. Goodness with this woman! Talagang hindi ito titigil hangga't hindi matabunan ng pagkain ang sasakyan ko!

Heaving up a deep shaky breath, I tried to talk to her again.

"Samantha please.. let's talk about this----"

"Talk?? Huh! Walang mangyayaring usapan ngayon hangga't hindi man lang kita mapupuruhan ngayon! Babaugin talaga kita ng tuluyan kapag iilagan mo na naman 'to ngayon!"

At the hear of that, I can't stop but gaped at her in disbelief.

Seryoso ba ang babaeng 'to???! She couldn't be serious with that, could she???

"For the love of God, Samantha! You know I can't let you do that! Alam mong hindi na madadagdagan ang baby natin kapag ginawa mo 'yon!"

Pagkasabi ko dun, I think that made her more enraged now with her eyes instantly ablazed with fire.

Oh no. This isn't good.

"So balak mo pa talagang gawin uli to sa'kin! If I only have my gun now, mapapatay talaga kitang gago ka! Manloloko!"

And before I could even utter any soothing words to atleast calm her down, another slice of cake been already thrown to my way again. And this time, it's a chocolate flavored cake.

At hindi ko alam kung dapat ko bang ilagan ito o hayaan nalang na tumama ito sa mukha ko so that it could atleast calm her down a bit.

Fuck with these flying cakes and this damn situation!
