CHAPTER FIFTY-SEVEN

Each and every minute Gel spent there in her hospital bed feels lime her for me.




I'm partly to blame. Alam ko na wala syang seatbelt that time kasi nakataas ung dalawang paa nya kasi nakaharap syang nagkukwento sakin.





Hindi ko mapigilang manginig sa takot.



It's been quite sometime now, iniintay pa namin syang magising dah she's under chemically induced comatose.


I held her hand tight.



Two months ago, magkasabay kaming ipinasok sa loob ng ER.




May nurse na nag-a-ambu bag sakin. I can feel pain all over my body. I'm also in and out of consciousness. Nung mapalingon ako sa right side ko.




Ung cardiac monitor.. Flat line.




Para akong nagka-Adrenaline rush bigla. Gusto ko biglang tumayo kahit nahihirapan ako.




Gusto kong magwala. Gusto kong.sumigaw.





Pero wala akong nagawa kundi abutin lang yung nakalaylay na kamay ni Frances.





'Gel, please. Don't leave me like this.'



And a single tear escaped my eye before I passed out.




I was also put under Chemically Induced Coma for about three days.



Pero nagising din agad ako and the first thing that entered my mind was..




"Gel. Where's Gel?!" If my body isn't sore baka lumabas na ako ng hospital room ko. Agad agad.




"Jiro, anak. Ssssh." I found myself hugging my mom tight and then I broke.





"My, where is she?" I said my voice shaking.




I felt her tensed.




"She--she--"




"She's alive, hijo." She said lovingly then caressed my face. I've never felt this relieved in my whole life. 

"I've never seen you like thid over Ela, Jiro." I looked up and my mother is smiling to me.

"I just love her." Tangna. Nakakalalaki na talagang umiyak ng umiyak. Pucha.
