Chapter 14: The Announcement On the way to the restaurant, I can’t help but think about what’s going to happen tonight. Pare sad he has something to tell me. I wonder what it is he is going to say. As for me, I have decided to tell him already. To get rid of all these things inside me. We are adults now. We’re no longer high school or college students. We could deal with it the right way. I mean if he doesn’t feel the same way we’re mature enough to just let it slip and not affect our friendship. Nothing could possibly go wrong. It’s now or never. It felt weird to be sitting in a table with the four of us together again. It’s our second ‘get together’ since that dinner. I mean we’ve seen each other but not like this, with all four of us here. And I hid the bracelet in my bag before we arrived at the restaurant. I also noticed Pare wouldn’t raise his sleeves no matter sweaty he was. I guess he misses his bracelet so much, but I didn’t want to return it. Not now at least. All through out dinner Pare and I just keep having eye contact. I guess we both wanted to excuse ourselves from the table and just talk about what it is we really want to say. On another one of our eye contact we were about to excuse ourselves when Twinx suddenly spoke up. I don’t know, but isn’t that just a perfect timing. She always is. She spoke dramatically, as if in the soap operas. “Guys, I want to tell you something.” She started. The three of us became quiet to give her the stage. “I consider you all as one of those people that I really trust. You are the people who I can entrust my whole life with. I want to share something with you guys.” I was touched with her speech, to be honest. It’s true I never really liked her. I mean we were never really that close, but I never knew that that’s how she looks at our relationship. At the four of us together. “I’ll just have to announce it.” She said looking at Pare and taking his hand. Then she looked at us. How important is this? Seriously? I couldn’t explain how I felt at the moment. Twinx inhaled then said, “I’m pregnant.” I felt my world stop. I felt my knees shaking. I didn’t know whether I’d be happy for them or what. I don’t know. So many things were going through my mind. I saw Pare hug Twinx. Everything was perfect nothing was supposed to go wrong because this was my night. Everything was going perfect ‘til now. Doc was rather happy about the announcement, I guess we all should be. I think. So Doc proposed a toast for the new baby. After the toast I just remained silent. I forgot what they were all talking about. I felt out myself at that moment. All I could do was stare at them. Do you know that feeling? You’re there, you could see them, but it seemed like you couldn’t hear a sound. As if they were on mute. And you just had no idea what was going on. That’s what I was feeling at that moment. I just nodded my head and smile whenever I felt like they’re talking to me or of they needed my consent or something. Finally dinner was over. Doc and I went our way, and Pare and Twinx went their way. Pare and I didn’t get to talk anymore, though it was obvious that the both of us have a lot to say. But I also have a lot of things to think about first. Again that is. At the car I remained silent. Doc kept talking about random things. I guess he noticed I wasn’t really paying much attention. “What’s wrong? Tired?” he asked his voice full of concern. I just nodded my head and stared straight out the window. I felt guilty because of all the concern he has for me. Could really tell that he really loves me. I thought I love him the same way too, but right now I’m just not so sure anymore. I’m confused. Especially now that I’ve decided to tell Pare the truth then finding out that Twinx is pregnant? I’m not a home wrecker! I guess I never will. Why doesn’t things ever go the way I want them to? Why now?! •~•~• I take none of the credits.
