Every time, I want to tell him that I'm pregnant but always not fulfilled, it's no use. That's why I don't believe in destiny. We aren't destined for each other so, better keep this baby to him, he no longer needs to know that he has a child. I can not count how many times we went and contacted him but still nothing.
"Pria, your ob gyne told me that your safe to travel next month." Mom always told me that thing. She wants me to give birth in Canada with my tita.
I continue eating the beans and look at her. "Mom, I told you I don't want to go there."
I don't want to go to Canada. I want to give birth here in the Philippines not there.
"Pria, please... it's for our own good. your own good. Just this time please listen to me."
It's not for my own good, it's for the company's own good. Our company is about to collapse due to finance. I heard about it on the news and the good thing about it now is that Ruiz for the first time invested in the company after knowing what happens.
I know my mom is scared about another scandal that's why she told me this kind of thing.
'Her daughter is pregnant because of a One night Stand.'
That's a scandal!
I don't want the company to collapse again because of me so I think I need to obey mom.
I sigh. "I'll think about it, mom. If that's what you want."
My mom smiles sweetly at me. "Thank you, Darling."
I smiled back and continued eating.
I'm nowhere in my bedroom. Lying while caressing my baby bump. I don't want you to be like me baby in case it looks like destiny doesn't want your daddy to know I'm pregnant. I'm sorry.
But, don't worry I won't make you feel like you don't have a daddy. Tito Ruiz will be there for us, I promise that... He won't be mysterious to us anymore.

"I want to eat Ice cream cake with lots of almonds and sprinkles."
Venice raised her brow and look at the menu. I sweetly smile at her and saw Zeta shaking her head slowly while looking at the menu.
"But, they don't have Ice cream cake here."
I pouted and gazed at her. "I want to eat ice cream cake." I hardly said.
"Pregnant wants an Ice cream cake, Venice. " Zeta was laughing.
We're here at Starbucks now, I brought them here because I crave chocolate drinks and now I want ice cream cake.
"I want ice cream cake, let's go to another place," I said standing up. I want to eat what I want.
"Let's go." Zeta sighed and hold my elbow before we go out.
Venice got into Zeta's car first and I got into the shotgun. It was Zeta who drove to a restaurant.

The Ice cream cake looks so delicious I don't want to eat it cause it's so cute and pretty.
It's a unicorn Ice cream cake. A lot of almonds and sprinkles. So, perfect. I don't want to break it.
"Stop staring, Pria... eat that Ice cream cake of yours, you're craving that right?" Venice said. Her tone is annoyed. She's frowning.
I glared at her. She's eating salad. "I don't want to eat this, it's so cute," I said while looking at the ice cream.
I heard Zeta laugh and Venice sigh. Is it like this when you get pregnant? Weird.
" Just eat that. A weird preggy. "Venice is annoyed so I chuckled.
She's annoyed and she's always buying what I want.
" Have you decided to go to the states? "Zeta suddenly asks. Why the sudden change topic. My mood is so good earlier but now it's become salty.
I slowly nodded. I decided to go to the states because I know my tita will help me there. And, my mom requested it multiple times.
It's hard, I don't want to live in my home town but this is life, I need to go to the states in silence. It's a big scandal to mommy if her co-business will know.
"You will go right?" Venice said.
I sighed and look at the Ice cream cake and then Venice. "I need to. I decided to go."
"Don't worry, Pria we will visit you in no time," Zeta said sweetly.
"We will be there if it's your due time, okay."
They are so sweet. I'm so proud that I have friends like them, the most genuine people I've known.
They are my best friends super.
"Thank you, guys."
"That's why we are friends." Zeta laugh.
"Obgyne tomorrow? The gender reveal?" I told them and their eyes spark.
They both smile at me. I'm also excited about the gender to reveal tomorrow. God, I just hope. It's a boy.
"Venice, Let's bet ... Mine, girl," Zeta told Venice with arrogance.
Venice smirk. "Okay... but, babe it's a boy."
"We don't know yet."
"Don't you go to Obgyne?" Venice said.
I shake my head. Yep, it's been 4 months since I last visited the Obgyne.
"Let's go tomorrow."
It's hard to put up everything. I am going to be a mother of two. I just hope that they will come out of my womb strong and healthy.
I will love them to infinity. Even if it's hard to say to them that they don't have a father... I know how hurt I am when my father and mother broke up, you suffer.
Everything will be put into pieces... Someday.
