Chapter 5.17

Our little bud is born today... Ramstadt Chopin. He's quite a steady baby but he needs to be fed A LOT that the nurses start to worry this baby might grow obese. Heeheeheeheehee. Daddy has been taking care a lot of him cos mommy wants to rest. This is definitely a handful... Is wants as many kids as possible... I think I want to stop after having 2, perhaps. So I'm really relaly hoping my second one will be a girl. (Don't tell Is).

But I dont think we'll be adding anytime soon. Is' business is not doing as well as it used to at the moment. One of the shareholders suddenly decided to back out and start another one with their competitor. How shallow!! Grrrr. Seems like all he's after is just the money. Is might look at asking Quinn to come back because she's the best negotiator. But that would probably take effect only next year after Quinn's bud is born. 

Chapter 5.16

Entering the third trimester is... phew. I start to discover many more discomfort nowadays, but still totally enjoying it. Is and me agree not to find out the gender till he or she arrives. *so excited* So in anticipation, we decorated the nursery room in green. I of course want a girl... someone to go shopping with *winks* and Is is totally anticipating for a boy. Hahaha. Whatever it is we're enjoying this very much. Mom is flying back next week to start taking care of me and teaching me things i wouldn't know how to do. I will definitely need her anyway.

January has also been quite a help lately. In times when she finishes her class early, she would swing by bringing me some food to eat. She also told me that she's been seeing a guy lately... Seems like Is will be expecting not only another kid, but also grandkid! Wait, that translates me becoming a granny too, doesn't it. :o

Okay... time to rest... Expected delivery date is next Wednesday. I can't wait, little one.

Chapter 5.15

Is and I have been in thought about renovating our house because the last time was... zillion years ago. I don't mind having more water around our house. Like little ponds or something like that. But Is wants to keep it to have more garden all around... Arrrrrgh.

Pregnancy update: Still in the first trimester and my tummy is simply not showing much progress I'm worried. Boohoo. But tomorrow first thing in the morning I've already got an appointment with Dr. Chunk... so ah ha.

Sleeping and eating wise has been absolutely zen for me though. I can't wait till the baby arrives...

Chapter 5.14

Peeps, we're pregnant.... :) This is such good newsssss!!!!!!!!! Predicted that the baby was conceived right the day before we flew over to elope. Aaaaaaaaaah! :)

I've been banned from working at all (working for me: fishing and gardening) because according to the doctor I have a really weak immune system that could affect the baby. Okay!!!! Whatever it is for the baby I'll do it!!! Isaiah will be soooo thrilled!

Chapter 5.13

We're married today!! It's ultra romantic, thanks mom and Auntie Persey for arranging this!!!! [hugs]

Quinn also announced that she's migrating over to Saris. She met this guy at a cafe while having her hot chocolate and she said she's totally falling for him... Oooooh well, at least mom and auntie Persey are there to give this klutz a good guide :P Seems like I'll be flying over to Saris quite a bit in the future. I'm gonna miss all these 3 ladies!!!!!

Our flight is tomorrow morning 8am. It's kind of a rush cos Isaiah has a meeting to attend to. Now that Quinn is resigning, he'll need to find just as potential replacement as Quinn. I'm totally supportive of you, dearest husband!

Aye aye aye... Mrs. Isaiah Berdington from now on. Awzaaaa! <3 okay need to catch some sleep... terribly exhausted these few days.

Chapter 5.12

Mom spilled the news to my grannies... sighs. As expected they wanted it to turn into some sort of royal wedding now. NO I DON'T WANT THAT... So we decided to elope. To Saris to meet mom and Auntie Persey along with Quinn. My most favorite people in the whole wide world.

Baby making project has been halted. We let it flow naturally when the time is right.

Divorce progress = DONE! =)

I'm off to pick my dress now. Aye aye aye.

Chapter 5.10

SURPRISE! Guess whom we ran into in the obgyn? HIS EX WIFE. She IS pregnant AGAIN with ANONYMOUS' kid. It's an awkward situation for both of us. We're both caught pregnant and getting pregnant. LOL.

I left the both of them to talk in the corner. As soon as they're done I asked Is how it went, again Is said, "still... she refused to talk." I WAS LIKE ????????! I yelled at her. I lost it totally.

Me: "Hey, Imelda. Could you please sort this out? This thing between you and Isaiah?"
She: "You mean you're waiting for us to get divorced? Why? Cos you've carried his baby, huh? Sl*t! You're still supposed in school like my kids... but look at you, straying like a chicken."
Me: "EXCUSE ME? WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY? At least i don't get pregnant around like somebody does! And cheating a guy for a good 20 years that the kids ARE his kids when it's actually NOT! Where's your shame, SL*T?"
She: "EXCUSE ME?????"
Isaiah: "Ladies... ladies..."
Me: "No, Is. I want this to be done right here right now. If we could sort this out peacefully and in a right way, why should this always be postponed ALL THE FREAKING TIME?"
She: "He still loves me! He texts me everyday he still loves me. Are you now surprised, young sl*t?"
Me: "No, Isaiah will NOT do this. Please pass on your another cheating exercise to someone else. Please, Imelda. Leave us alone."
She: "Okay, I only want the house and the 3 lands that he's bought over the past few years. It's for the kids."
Me: "and the anonymous baby inside you? ONLY IN YOUR MIND. We're pregnant too! And we're planning to have many kids in the future. So no, you can't take away his belongings while you've been cheating on him."
She: "Is that true, Is? That you guys are expecting baby?"
Isaiah: "Yes."
She: "Without marriage, really? What are your parents gonna say? Shame on you."
Me: "HEY HEY HEY! Let's just get this sorted out the fastest we could okay."
Isaiah: "I don't mind giving you away my current house, if it makes you leave us alone and sign the damned paper."
She: "No."
Me: "What do you mean 'NO'?"
Isaiah: "You're pregnant with someone else's kid. I am expecting a baby with someone else too. You've cheated on me for god so many years, and I've stayed faithful throughout. I still love Jan and Reed all the same. Where's your shame, Mel?"

And she broke down crying. She's scared of what the future holds for her. Anonymous' baby and two other kids who are barely doing well in school. In the end, all three of us agreed on one decision, that Is would keep the house, but he will feed on that family till Jan and Reed find a job themselves. Signing paper is scheduled next week. WOOHOO.

So back to the obgyn. According to the doctor I'm in need of more greenies to eat. But that isn't really a damned big problem anymore now that the signing-the-paper is almost finalized. :)

Chapter 5.9

Dear diary,

I have an urge to tell you this. I have to tell you this. I've been keeping it for awhile it starts to suck me up. Again, Is & his (ex) wife's divorce hasn't been progressing. It's stopped. Eventhough her condition is actually perfectly mint now. That's worrying me sick, and so is the same for Is. Everytime he tried to call her up, she either hung up on him, or just simply refused to talk about this matter. So we're smelling something's going on.

Big suspicion is, seems like she's wanting Is' house. Which is quite a spacious one. In short, she wants to dig everything out from him. Oh yeah have I told you she finally really wanted to take both of her children with her? So she uses them as her reason. How sickening!

So we worked out something. We're trying to get pregnant. Ugh it's so hard for me to get this out, but please hear us out. It's for all our good sakes. We want to have a kid so that she wouldn't have any other stronger reasons to dig all the moolahs out of Is.

Now the thing is, apparently getting pregnant isn't something easy huh!! To be honest we've been trying for months now... but... :( Why. And we can't be married yet either because then all faults would be on Is' side. It's a really difficult situation I hope somebody could help us out.

I have an appointment with the obgyn tomorrow... we'll see and pray that it'll all be okay. I'm worried sick!!!!!

Chapter 5.8

So if anybody has heard anything at all, yes, my mom has decided to leave this town with auntie Persey. Technically according to this legacy, she's not allowed to do that, so she promised a comeback. When Quinn and I asked them why, they only said they needed a time together to spend at their dusk age... They're only flying to Saris, to dad's home... and spent quite a few months.

On one hand i'm cheering with glee because of the freedom, on the other hand I think I'm gonna really miss mom. She's the sole person who tells me to do things and stuffs. So anyway... the departure is still next week... I'm feeling mellow already.

On the lovey-dovey department, Is and I are totally doing great! I cooked him breakfast this morning. I told mom there's no class so I was just gonna stay around... heh. =) But he gotta quickly sneak out before anybody came home. So it's a short fun. I really really really do love this guy. Awh!

His divorce stage hasn't moved on in a while. Apparently his (ex) wife is sort of falling sick... which made things so much harder to move on from now. ARGH.

Chapter 5.7

The confession.

Mom: Quinc, you gotta tell me... are you seeing anyone darling?
Me: Oh gosh mom what's with youuu?
Mom: I know what it feels like... just like your father and I. Totally flushed, innit?
Me: Hmmmm.
Mom: So who's the guy?
Me: Isaiah...?
Mom: You mean Isaiah across the street? January and Reed's father?
Me: Mom, he's NOT their kids. Long story. But yeah it's him.
Mom: Are you serious Quincey? He's double your age! And he's married!!
Me: No mom he's getting a divorce. Again. Long story. We're doing well mom, please don't ruin this.
Mom: I need to get to know him. NOW. I'm not sending you off to some jerk...
Me: Mom, he is NOT a jerk!!!! Please keep the judgmental thoughts to yourself okay? I'll see if he can come over tonight. He's really a good guy trust me.
Mom: whatever...
Me: ????

Isaiah decided to come to my place for dinner. IT IS SUPER AWKWARD but thank God Quinn was there to kind of melt everything down. Auntie Persey was totally cool with him though, she's all like so what's the future holding for you guys? But mom was like... when's the divorce getting finalized and are you sure about this relationship?

Mom's always the serious type... The night got late before we knew it so I asked Isaiah to stay for the night. Of course without mom knowing it.

Chapter 5.6

He introduced me to January and Reed this evening after dinner. Both of them went, "what? hey! we went to the same school, didn't we?". I had to uncover it at that very moment in front of Isaiah! Gah I was so worried what he could be thinking at that moment. "Is she too young? Am I like a pedophile now?". But guess what, in front of the kids he addressed me as his GIRLFRIEND. Jan and Reed are totally cool with it too, cos technically they're NOT Isaiah's kids.

Things are looking better and better of course. He told me that he's never experienced such kind of feeling before. I'm so so so happy... he mentioned about me moving in with him. But i told him that's certainly not possible, because of this legacy pact thing. I wanted to ask him to move in with me, but I'm afraid that mom won't approve of it. She hasn't known about our R/S yet either...

Should I tell her?

Chapter 5.5

What better describes having known the love of your life? Yes the sweetest dream at night that followed after! I'm all amazed by Isaiah, the way he talks, the way he behaves, the way he dresses.

He's just so so amazing I couldn't believe it. Despite whatever his wife has done to him, he's willing to let go so easily and willing to take care of her kids. Why her kids? Cos it turns out that those are NOT even his kids in the first place! He's just trapped into her scenario until both kids turned five. Brava to that lady!

They're filing a divorce *yay! what?*.

This morning mom also asked something really really suspicious. "Are you seeing anybody? You seem happier". I couldn't say anything... because she would preach on everything about Medical school again. So I told her no I didn't. Phew.

Chapter 5.4

Speaking of... that guy from neighborhood, I finally got to know his name! No I wasn't friends with neither January or Reed (they're new here). But apparently, Quinn happens to know Isaiah, that's the name! Best of all, they are working together on a special project right now, some sort of campaign for the next election. Quinn is supporting Isaiah as a candidate by doing up all the communication stuffs. So yeah. Quinn smelt something fishy as soon as I asked around about Isaiah, but so close that we are, she could definitely tell that I have a thing for him.

According to Quinn though, Isaiah isn't really that bad a guy. He just happened to got married to his wife at really really young age (19!) because his wife got pregnant... sighs. Whatever it is, I told Quinn that please introduce us to each other by hook or by crook. I am really really interested in him.

On the academic side, despite mom's insistence, I'm continuing my Fishery class. I have had more than 10 little aquariums at home. All of the fishes were manually caught through my own study. I'm planning to breed them and crossbreed too. And all the carcasses go as fertilizers for my plants. I'm also researching on plant study, concentrating on fruit trees. It's really really interesting.

And guess what, Isaiah loves gardening too! *beaming eyes*

Chapter 5.3

I'm kind of in a row with mom. I told her I loveeeeeeeed fishing and gardening so much but she just wouldn't budge and kept telling me to go to Medical school. I really miss dad :'(

While on the other hand, auntie Persey has been advising me to get married soon. I can't imagine what Quinn is going through with mom like her! I don't even have a boyfriend yet!!!!!!

I like this guy from the neighborhood, but he seemed so out of reach! Hahahaha. Okay first thing, he's married. (I KNOW), and secondly, hm, his wife is sort of hanging out with other guy too out there. Best part, they have two kids who used to be my classmates; January and Reed. Too complicated? Very, no?

Why is he so attractive to me? I don't know really... I just have a thing for mature guy I suppose. Eeeeek!

Chapter 5.2

Some said that I'm fortunate to have been Jack's daughter, I don't have to worry about money, I don't have to worry about not having the best in everything in the world. Well, guess what dad, they're right. It's so shocking to know that you're no longer breathing as I stepped into your room this morning. But I will remember your advice always that I should go for what I really want in my life and that I should respect everyone's decision and quit being a rebel.

I love you dad. As i'm writing this, mama is still mourning over this great loss. She told me you're the highlight of her life and you're the best thing that has ever happened to her.
