Chapter 46: Chapter 46

Ingrid's POV

"Have you dropped them ?" I ask.

"Yup, they said their thanks one more time," he said with his eyes on the road. I can't help but smile there. He looks like he a really having a bad day but he still manages to talk to me.

"Thank you," Indigo said.

"For?" I ask.

"For welcoming my friends."

"Fork," I said, laughing because I could see him furrowing his forehead.

"Ugly bonding," he said.

"Who?" I ask.

"You, who else am I talking to?" he frowned at the question. I laughed because he was often like this.

"Whoman," I said so he glared at me.

"You're crazy," he said angrily, not really paying attention to me anymore.

"Are you angry?" I laughed while questioning him. I continued teasing him but he didn't pay attention to me anymore. I laughed softly while trying to get his attention until we finally reach home.

"I love you," I whispered to him so he stopped getting out of the car. He curse softly and did not go inside our house. I giggled at his reaction.

“You really know how to tame me, don't you?" he complained before glaring at me.

"You won't say 'I love you too', Loads?" I smiled and asked. He just stared at me. I lost the smile on my lips and I could feel my heartbeat getting faster.

“I love you. So bad,” he said before slowly bringing his face closer to mine. I couldn't move, especially when his lips touched mine. I could just feel the warmth of his lips as I felt the warmth of his love.

We just stopped when we heard a knock on the window.

"Bold is not allowed here," Sandro said.

"Sandro, that's your mouth, huh!" I threatened him so he immediately pouted.

“Ate! Your car is not tinted. The neighbors can clearly see you,” he told me, pointing to some of our neighbors who were gossiping on one side while looking at the car. I feel the redness of my face because of that.

I almost wanted to be eaten by the land because of it. All week, they were talking about us. It's a good thing that it didn't reach the school but it's really embarrassing when we pass by and hear them talking about Indigo and me.

"I didn't know that Ma'am is that wild," my neighbor said. I almost dipped my face in Indigo who was walking with me. We bought pandesal and this is what they are saying. I could feel his body moving so I knew he was laughing right away. I looked at him and nudge him.

“Aling Poleng, you're gossiping about my wife again. I just adjusted the seatbelt, you're making an issue. She is just wild in bed,” Indigo said so I immediately pinched him and pulled him away. They will even talk more about us he says that!

"You idiot!" I said looking at him. He laughed and instead of being scared, he just tease me.

"You're blooming, Ma'am," some we cross paths with said. I smiled at them.

"It's really like that when someone takes care of you," they said with a smile while looking at Indigo who was behind me and was just carrying the pandesal.

"Of course, I'm good at taking care of my wife and daughter," Indigo said with a smile. Arrogant as usual.

Indigo and I both don't have work today. He started working last week, he always comes back here when his job is over.

“Love, want to visit Ing & Ind today?” Indigo asked me. I stopped because the last time I went there I was really hurt because I thought they were really together, Andra and him.

"Hmm, sure," I said so when Raya woke up we immediately fixed ourselves to visit Ing & Ind.

"So, you really worked, Nanay, while studying?" Raya asked me curiously. I smiled at her and nodded.

"Wow," she said in amazement so I laughed.

When we got to Ing & Ind, I was also hesitant to go inside. If Indigo hadn't just stared at me, I wouldn't have walked.

Some staff greeted us, just like before.

"You're here again, Ma'am," they greeted me.

"Good afternoon," I greeted them.

“Oh, is this your daughter, Sir? How cute!" they said to Raya who was just wandering hee eyes around the place. I couldn't help but smile as I watched her talk to them. She's a ray of sunrise for us and she can easily get along with people.

All of Indigo's staff are kept to one side because Indigo has something to announce. I was silent while waiting for that.

"You'll finally meet the owner of the Ing & Ind. This is Miss Ingrid Galang soon to be Ingrid Cornel," Indigo introduced me. My lips parted as I processed what he said.

"Huh?" I asked him confusedly.

"I already transferred this to your name," he said with a smile.

“Are you crazy? You worked hard for all this, Indigo,” I said confusedly.

"It's yours, ever since," he said, smiling at me. He even showed me the documents proving that I was indeed the owner of Ing & Ind. I couldn't believe it so I looked at him and I didn't know what to say. I just stood there while still stunned.

Even when the staff greeted me I was just startled.

“What are you saying, Indigo? You didn't just give me a piece of paper! You worked hard for all that!” I couldn’t stop talking while we were in the car.

“You worked hard for that before. You wanted to have Ing & Ind branches, didn't you? And I'm not really up for business. I ran away from my father,” he laughed as if the papers he had given me were just nothing.

"Let's have a branch in Nueva Ecija," he said with a smile while I was still staring at the paper.

"Love, let's build a house. The one the three of us want," he said randomly so I immediately looked at him. He really likes surprises. I hardly even moved on in the business he gave away. I will actually transfer it to his name. I can't accept that.

"Huh?" I confusedly ask. How can he say that all of a sudden?

"I saw some land near you, I've bought it," he said so my lips parted as I looked at him.

"Let's plan our house together," he said.

“Is that serious? Are you joking again?” I ask.

"I'm serious, I will also call the well-known architect so we can plan it together," he added.

“You have a job in Manila. You have a house of your own there, you don't have to go— ” Before I could continue, he turned to me.

“Our house. But this is the life that you want. Both Raya and you want to live here so I don't really mind adjusting a little bit of my time for you. It won't hurt my schedule that much,” he said with a wide smile.

"You will travel so far just to go home," I said.

"You and Raya are my home now. Of course, I'll go home here. I don't care at all if I'll travel so far as long as you'll be the one I'll see once I came home… I don't care at all, Ingrid… I only want to be with you and Raya…" he said.

It’s really not a joke because just a few days later we were already planning and we were going to talk to the architect. I also have some savings so I can contribute to the house we will build. Although Indigo didn't want to accept it at first. I just threatened him so he accepted.

"First, garden, isn't it, Nak?" I asked Raya who was watching us. She nodded at me and gave me another thumbs up. I couldn't help but laugh there. She also turned her eyes to water her plants.

“Hmm, you said that you want to have a mini library, right?” Indigo asked so I looked at him. He showed some photos on his phone and also gave the folder with the design.

“That's another design that the Architect sent me. Take a look,” he said so I nodded.

“How about you? Don't you want anything?” I ask.

"I'm already satisfied living with you," he said so I rolled my eyes at him. He even winks at me. He looks crazy.

I was busy looking at the designs and sometimes ask Raya and him but they were already busy playing on my cellphone. I let them because sometimes they also answer my question.

“I have already chosen some designs. You should choose too,” I told him so he just nodded.

"That's okay, if you like it, I like it too," he laughed so I just shake my head at him.

"Ate, you need to go to Galang's Store," Sandro said who peeked at us here in the garden. He is drinking mogu-mogu again. He always has stock because of Indigo.

"Okay, I'm going," I said, standing up. I just handed Indigo his phone. Before that, I saw a notification from his Twitter account. Someone followed him. My lips parted when I saw my account.

"Hey, you're really a meddler, you're crazy!" I said before getting my phone from him. He laughed as he handed it over.

"You're a stalker of my account, huh?" he said that he even showed my recent search. I just close my eyes in embarrassment. I only did this because I found out that he was still active there.

"You're so thick-skin," I said as I just passed by him to look like it was nothing.

"Come on, Raya," I invited Raya, who was just laughing at Indigo and me. When I got in the car, Indigo also got in. He's going with us too. I just frowned because the smile on his lips was still visible. He have a lot of things to say that I didn't even pay attention to.

"On vacation, are we going to collab?" he asked with a wide smile on his face.

“Silly, I'm not going to collab with you. I am the assistant producer of Mr. Pollido's movie on vacation,” I said. Mr. Pollido invited me. Even some producers. When it's vacation, I can also insert it into my schedule. I really like it so even being an assistant producer is really big achievement for me.

"So we are going to have a Manila date l?" he asked excitedly.

"If we're still together," I said, so he immediately frowned at me.

"You know your jokes are ugly," he complained so I just laughed softly at his frowning face.

When we arrived at the store, Indigo and Raya got busy with the customers waiting in line while I was busy being the cashier.

When it was peaceful in the store, the two were just having fun playing on Indigo's cellphone while I also opened my cellphone. I frowned when I received many messages.

My lips parted as I looked at them, some are apologizing. Indigo replies to all the message requests on Facebook that I just made days ago and even the text messages he didn't miss.

"Hey!" I called Indigo who was already walking away from me. He knew immediately what he had done wrong.

"You're crazy, some of these are parents from school," I said, embarrassed immediately because of his replies. He's too proud as my boyfriend. I even read a message from someone who had tried to woo me.

Josh Manansalang: Hi, Ma'am Ingrid. How are you? You are still really beautiful. Fadeless.

Ingrid Galang: My girlfriend is really beautiful, Beo.

Josh Manansalang: Who is this?

Ingrid Galang: I am the father of her child, why?

Raya and he even has a selfie together when he sends that message. I can't help but laugh softly. He was still the Indigo back then. The only difference now is that we actually have a child. He looks crazy as if he still thinks that his girlfriend is so pretty.
