Thirdy's POV
Today is Bea's birthday. We planned to go to the church then eat out lang. I am currently waiting for her sa sala. Nag aayos pa kasi siya. Kabuwanan na ngayon ni Bea kaya we're really careful kasi anytime she can give birth to our angel. As months passed by mas lalo kami naging close. But sadly,i still can't tell her the truth. I'm scared of her hating me because of my actions. May bag na akong niready na may baby stuff dito sa bahay. Para pag manganganak na siya di ko na kailangan mag prepare ng stuff diretso na lang sa car. Meron din akong bag with baby stuff sa car ko, just in case. Hanggang ngayon hindi pa din tanggap ni Tito Elmer ang nangyari kay Bei. Matagal tagal na din since Bea last saw her parents and kuya. Sila mommy naman. Lagi silang naka gabay samin ni Bea. Lagi nila kaming binibilinan ng mga dapat gawin. I stopped with my toughs ng makita kong pababa na si Bea. Sinalubong ko siya at inalalayan. Nang makababa kami niyakap ko siya.
Thirdy: happy birthday Bei.
I smiled at her then she hugged me back.
Bea: thank you Thirds. And thank you for always being here for me.
Thirdy: ganun talaga love kita eh.
Lumuhod ako para mahaplos ko tummy niya.
Thirdy: hi baby... greet mo din si mommy birthday niya ngayon. Labas kana din kaya para double celebration.
With that nahampas lang naman ako ng nag iisang Bea de Leon.
Bea: ikaw talaga! Mamaya sundin talaga yan ng bata eh.
Thirdy: joke lang... pero ito di na joke. Kahit anong mangyari baby nandito ako for you and your mom. I love you both so much. I'll help your mommy with you. Simula paglabas mo until my last breath.
I kissed her tummy then tumayo ulit. I saw Bea teared up because of what i just said.
Bea: thank you...  for the love you give us. For everything....
Thirdy: shhhh.... (while wipping her face) don't cry love. I'm always gonna be here for you and for this little kid right here.
Ngumiti lang siya sakin.
Thirdy: let's go?
Tumango naman siya. Lumabas na kami sa unit. Sumakay na kami sa car tyaka ako nag drive papunta sa church. On the ride nobody dared to talked until i broke the silence.
Thirdy: Bae....
Bea: hmmmm???
Thirdy: are you okay? Does your tummy hurt?
Bea: it doesn't.... but, to be honest. I'm scared.
Thirdy: why are you scared?
Bea: what if di ko kayanin? What if di siya mag survive? What if hana------
I cut her off by a kiss.., don't worry i stopped muna. Mahirap na. Humiwalay lang kami nang hindi na kami maka hinga. I cupped her face then peck her lips.
Thirdy: think positive love. That wound happend... we just need to trust in the Lord.
Bea: I'm just scared. It's my first time.
Thirdy: i know... but don't let that fear take over you. I'm always here for you.
I hugged her... when i felt that she calmed down. I made her face me again. I kissed her on her forehead, her nose then her lips.
Thirdy: i will never ever leave you. I will never ever break my promise to you. I love you....
Nag drive na ulit ako papunta sa simbahan.
*fast forward*
Kakarating pa lang namin sa unit. Pumasok agad si Bea sa kwarto niya. Maya maya lumabas ulit siya at biglang sumigaw.
Bea: Thirdy I----- Argh!!!!!!!!
Napahawak siya sa tyan niya kaya inalalayan ko siya.
Thirdy: bei! Bei! Are you okay?
Bea: thirdy!!!!! Argh!!!!! I---- argh!!!!!
Thats when in noticed na pumunok na pala ang water bag niya.
Thirdy: oh my ghad bei, manganganak kana!
I was so nervious, but i tried to stay calm. I carried her tyaka dali daling pumunta sa car. Nang makarating kami sa parking dali dali kong binuksan ang pinto tyaka siya inupo dun. Mabilis naman akong pumunta sa drivers seat tyaka nag drive papuntang st. Lukes.
Thirdy: bei keep calm, just calm down... everthings gonna be fine, inhale exhale...
I was keeping her calm while i was driving. I already called ate Den to tell her the Bei is now on labor. Nang makarating na kami sa hospital, sinalubong agad kami ng mga nurse na may dala dalang stretcher. Hiniga na dun si bea at dali daling dinala sa delivery room. Ng pagpasok ko nakasalubong ko si ate den.
Den: thirdy ikaw lang ba kasama ni Bea?
Thirdy: yes po ate.
Den: mag pa assist ka sa nurse. Humingi ka ng hospital gown, samahan mo si Bea sa loob.
Tumango na lang ako kay ate Den. Sumama na lang ako dun sa nurse na tinawag ko.
Den: thirdy just calm her down. Kami na bahala.
Thirdy: bei... kalma ka lang ah. I know you can do it,
Bea: thirdy it hurts. Arhhhh!
Thirdy: kunting tiis lang Bei. Please...
I held her hand.
Den: bea when i say push, push ah.
Tumango naman si Bea at naramdaman kong humigpit ang hawak niya sa kamay ko.
Den: one, two, three, push!
Bea: arrghhhhh!!!!
Napangiwi na lang ako sa higpit ng hawak niya sakin.
Den: one more Bei. Push!
Bea: arrghhhhhhhhh!!!!
Den: bea its almost out. Give it all you might. Push!
Bea: arrghhhhhhhhh!!!! Arrghhhhhhhh!!!!!
Baby: uhaaaa! Uhaaaaaa!
Den: baby girl De Leon. 1:14 pm.
I looked at the baby. There she is, my child. I'm a dad now .
