Tahimik ang kanilang naging hapunan ng gabing iyon, casual naman ang lahat she doesn't heard anything about Loki eversince Lucas came confessing to her, ni "Hi" nga yata ay wala siyang nakuha mula sa asawa. He just won't talk to her as if she was a wind.

"Asia ano sa tingin?"

Asia blink numerable times before looking at Jena.

"Ang alin?"

Jena rolled her eyes and showed her  a leaflets, kanina pa pala siya nito tinatawag but her mind was too occupied to even heard her.

"Ano naman ito?"

Jena took the leaflets in her hand, then showed her what's inside.

"Bahay, malayo dito. In short peaceful, yung tipong feeling mo main character ka na gigising sa napakagandang view na to."

Asia chuckled and nodded, maganda naman talaga ang pinakikita ni Jena, it was a wooden house infront of a lake.

"Maganda nga, parang gusto ko din dyan." She said and took a bite of her meal. "Kailan pala start ng shooting niyo?"

"Bukas na, kaya nga sinusulit ko ng kasama kayo dahil mahirap sa sched."

Asia nodded.

"Huwag mong pabayaan ang sarili mo, mahirap ang mag isa Jena." Wika ng kanilang ina.

"Oo naman Nay, lagi akong tatawag sa inyo saka isang linggo lang naman yon tapos pahinga."

Matagal pa silang nga nag usap habang kumakain hanggang sa mag paalam si Jena na aalis muna. She went straight to her room when she felt dizzy. Agad siyang humiga, pinikit niya ang mga mata trying to rest when someone entered her room.

"Are you okay?"

Hindi na siya dumilat, she just heard Loki's voice so she answered him with a simple nod.

"Namumutla ka kanina, are sure you are okay?"

"Ayos lang ako, kulang lang sa tulog." Sagot niya. "After you leave please fold the blinds and shut the door, thanks."

Hindi na nag salita si Loki, narinig na lang niya ang pag sarado ng blinds at pag patay ng ilaw. She thought that Loki already leave but he lay beside her and took her in his arms. Asia's heart started beating again, she didn't open her eyes afraid that she night fall for his traps again.

"Matulog kana, I'll check up on you."

Hindi siya kumibo, she just lay there eyes closed. Pinakiramdaman niya ang nga susunod pang gagawin ng asawa, at ng hindi na siya makatiis ay nag salita na siya.

"Bakit mo sinabi kay Lucas yon?"

Loki chuckled making her blood boil in frustration, she knew how Loki can manipulate everyone his good in acting and he could win an Oscar.

"Why are you so bothered about that?"

"Because I am bothered, tell me is it an act only?"

Loki nodded, she felt her heart bleed the second time around.

"Okay... Matutulog na ako."

"I'm considering it, like what you said. We are married, let's try it wife."

"Try what?" Bulong niya. "Ano nanaman yang sinasabi mo?"

"Try us, try our relationship work."

Mabilis pa sa alas kwatro na dumilat ang kanyang mata sa sinabi ng asawa siguro ay nadala na siya kay Loki because her mind won't accept his proposal.

"Have you change your mind? Ayaw mo naba?"

"I don't know what to believe anymore." Malungkot niyang wika. She can't trust that easily after what Loki said natatakot siya.

"I'll make you believe me then." He said chuckling. "It was my fault that you already have trust issues, I'm the one responsible for that."

Hindi siya kumibo she let Loki speak up for himself and she's the one to judge that, but not until she's certain about what he is saying then she will open herself for him again.

"Matulog kana muna, bukas na lang tayo umuwi you look sick."

Asia slightly nods her head, pinikit niya ang mata. She thought that she can't have that sleep but she eventually drifted asleep in her husband's arm.

"Kailan kaya kayo babalik ulit niyan? Sana pag balik niyo may apo na ako."

"N-Nay, hindi naman magic na bigla na lang lilitaw yung baby."

"Sinsabi ko lang..." Natatawang wika ni Lineth. "Sige na at mag byahe na kayo baka gabihin kayo sa daan."

Mahigpit na niyakap ni Asia ang ina, she'll miss her for sure. Inaalala din niya ito dahil mag isa na lang sa bahay.

"Sigurao kaba na kaya mong mag isa dito Nay?" Muli niyang tanong. "Ikukuha na lang kita ng makakasama."

Lineth shook her head, hinaplos nito ang kanyang mukha at ngumiti.

"Huwag na, ano kaba? Kaya ko ang sarili ko huwag kang mag alala. Mag text na lang ako sayo kung may mang yari naman."

Asia's face frown then she look at her husband beside her.

"Text?"

Lineth nodded.

"Marunong na ako non, tinuruan ako ni Jena."

Pilit lang na ngumiti si Asia hanggang sa mag paalam na sila na aalis na. Her mother waited for them till their car drifted away, hindi parin mawala sa isip niya ang sinasabi nito how could she texted her when she don't even have a phone not unless Loki is doing something.

Isa pa ito sa problema niya, she thought that Loki is just messing aroun when he said to fix their relationship but he is indeed doing something for her. She woke up with a breakfast in bed and fresh bouquet of red roses, and plus that he is extra caring and sweet towards her. She's trying to stay cold and hard but Loki is just effortless wrecking that barrier she put around her heart.

"Bakit ganyan ka makatingin?" Tanong ng asawa niya.

Asia sighed and look away, kahit na anong isipin niya ay wala siyang matinong dahilan para sa mga kinikilos ng asawa.

"Naninibago lang ako." She said and watch the tall tree outside the window. She use to walk there alone before, wala naman siyang pera at sasakyan noon. She needs to wake up around 3 Am and walk along this long road to get to school.

"I know it was hard to believe, but I still wanna do it." Bulong ni Loki. "So please let me."

"Wala namang pumipigil sayo." Wika niya. "Asawa mo ako, but I don't think you considered me as one in the first place."

Hindi na kaimik si Loki sa sinabi niya, she is certain that what Lucas said is all true. It was just a sudden wedding, he kept on saying about his plans and that she is part of her so how can she believed him?

"It's okay, I can wait for you to open up again. Hindi naman ako nag mamadali, beside you can't escape me you are my wife and I don't plan on sharing you to anyone."

Asia's face flush, gusto niyang kaltukan ang sarili sa karupukan. But she then reminded about what he said, that he wants to removed their baby if it's with her. Tila nakaramdam siya ng galit ng maalala ang sinabi nito, who wouldn't aside from being hurt by the man she loves his willing to kill an innocent child.

"Whatever..." Bulong niya at pinagkasya na lang ang sarili sa pag masid sa labas.

Gabi na nang marating nila ang Maynila, she felt sleepy but her eyes won't just shut close hanggang sa iparada ni Pietro ang sasakyan sa garage. Pietro immediately jump off the car and run towards their direction to open the door for them. She immediately stretch her back as she felt the pain on it, mahirap din kasi ang limang oras na byahe lalo't buntis siya. Agad siyang napatingin sa asawa ng tumunog ang cellphone nito.

"I'll just take this call, go to your room first." He said before leaving.

Hindi na niya ito binigyang pansin, she's tired and her body wants to lay on her bed. Nag mamadali siyang tumungo sa silid, she immediately took her clothes off and tool a quick bath ngunit dahil sa lamig ng tubig ay tila nawala ang antok niya kaya't nag lakad na lang siya patungo sa balkonahe upang lumanghap ng sariwang hangin. Asia's eyes the darted to Loki whose busy talking to his phone. He looks so serious while on it but when his eyes darted to her his serious Aura faded.

Inangat nito ang kamay asking her to wait for him, she nodded but then her stomach grumbled. An idea came to her mind sonshe immediately went back to their room to look for a paper and a pen, after taking everything she needs she went back to the balcony. Loki frown when he saw her wife holding a pen and paper in her hands then she wrote something on it.

"I want burger and fries..." Basa niya.

"Pardon Sir, you want what?"

Loki blink nakalimutan na niyang may kausap siya dahil sa makulit na asawa.

"Nothing, I'll call you later." He said ending the call.

Then he signed her to wait, nag mamadali siyang tumakbo papasok ng Mansion sakto naman na kakababa lang ni Pietro ng hagdan.

"I need a pen and paper quick!"

Pietro nodded and run upstairs to his office, naiinip na ti-nap niya ang paa sa sahig habang nag hihintay and when Pietro run towards him holding a pen and paper he immediately run back to the garden. He then wrote something on the paper and show it to his wife.

"A burger and fries?"

Asia pout then write again on the paper she's holding.

"I want noodles!!!!"

Loko chuckled while looking at his impatient wife.

"Alright I'll get you something come down..."

Asia plastered a big smile then she run towards her room to her door, dali dali siyang lumabas sa kanyang silid at bumaba ng hagdan. Her heart beats erratically fast when she trip on the step and was about to fall when someone caught her arm.

"Be careful My Lady...."

Asia gasped for an air, halos mawalan siya ng hangin sa katawan sa nangyari.

"I-I will .."

She almost fell and it will hurt her baby! She wants to slap her face for being reckless. Nang makababa ay agad niyang hinanap ang asawa but Loki is nowhere, kinailangan niya pang ipag tanong kung nasaan ito then the maid told her his in the kitchen.

"A-anong ginagawa mo?" Nauutal na tanong niya habang nakatingin sa asawang naka apron.

Loki glance on her back to what his doing.

"Nag luluto, I thought you like to eat noodles?"

"Marunong ka mag luto?" Gulat niyang wika.

Loki chuckled and nodded, binuksan nito ang gripo at nag hugas ng kamay then he wipe it on his apron tapos ay nag lakad ito palapit sa kanya. Asia gasped when Loki holds her waist and lift her to sit on the counter top.

"Watch your husband do the job." He said then gave her a peck.

Napahawak na kang si Asia sa labi at pinanuod ang asawa na nag luluto, he look like an expert when he chopped the veggies perfectly.

"Paano ka natuto mag luto? I thought a busy billionaire like you don't know that kind of job?"

"Well, I'm talented what can I say?" Natatawa nitong sagot. "Just kidding, Well Aside from being the ruthless CEO I use to love working on the kitchen. Old habit with my Mom since I'm an only child."

Asia hum then asked the question that made Loki stopped.

"Where is she?"

Agad siyang kinabahan dahil dahan dahan nitong binaba ang kutsilyo na hawak.

"She's gone, too early to be gone." Malungkot na wika nito.

Asia felt her heart broke hearing Loki's sad voice remembering his mom.

"I'm sorry...."

She bit her lip when Loki didn't reply, akala niya ay galit ito but she was shock when Loki's shoulder shake. Is he crying?

"Umiiyak kaba?" Natatarantang wika ni Asia dahil it was her first time seeing him cry, being with Loki for almost a year all he showed to her is his temper, hindi ito nag pakita ng kahinaan but now seeing him crying makes her somewhat sad.

"A-ayos ka lang ba?"

"Yes I'm... I'm fine, maupo ka lang dyan."

But Asia didn't listen, nag lakad siya palapit sa asawa at hinarap ito sa kanya, there she saw him crying.

"I'm sorry..." Asia said.

Loki immediately shook his head, hinawakan nito ang kanyang kamay at ngumiti.

"No it's okay, matagal na din naman iyon. I know Mom is safe wherever she is."

Ngunit hindi mawala ang guilt sa kanyang dibdib dahil sa abrupt questions na ginawa niya.

"I-I lost her back when I was in highschool, No... I lost them back in highschool."

Asia's mouth awed when she heard those words coming to his mouth.

"T-they... They were tortured and killed infront of me."

"W-what?"

Loki sighed and look away, bakit nga ba niya sinasabi ito sa asawa.

"They were killed infront of an 18 year old boy who loves to messed around all the time."
