May naring akong kumatok sa pintuan na agad namang pinag-buksan ni Theo. Yung nagde-deliver pala ng pagkain para kay Poppy.
"Breakfast po ni Miss Poppy."
Nag-kunwari akong kakagising ko palang nung nagsisimula ng kumain si Poppy ng breakfast niya.
"Papa! Mama is awake na!" Inform nito kay Theo.
"Good morning, baby!" Masaya kong bati rito. "Good morning, Theo."
Wala akong planong sabihin sakanila na narinig ko yung pag-uusap nilang mag-ama. That's their privacy.
Mabilis kong inayos ang sarili ko dahil pupuntahan kami ng doctor ni Poppy to know kung compatible ba si Theo o hindi. Patuloy kong pinag-dadasal na sana compatible na ito para hindi na kami mahirapan na mag-hanap pa ng donor.
"Doc, kamusta?" Hindi na ako makapag-intay at nag-tanong ako agad.
Naka-ngiti saamin ang doctor kaya naman ay may maganda na akong nararamdaman tungkol dito.
"Good news, her dad is... compatible with her."
Parang biglang gumaan ang katawan ko. Agad akong napayak kay Theo dahil sa narinig namn. Agad aman akong humiwalay dito nang mapansin ko yung reaksyon ko. Napatingin naman ako sa doctor ni Poppy pero mas nagulat ako na ang laki ng ngiti nito.
"When can we start the process regarding the transplant?" Theo asked the doctor.
Hindi naman halata na nag-mamadali kami but because Poppy's liver is failing her kaya naman ay kailangan nang madaliin ito.
"We can start it immediately. If there is no question, we can start processing the papers now."
"How long does the process before we can have the surgery?" Tanong ni Theo.
Napatingin din ako sa doctor dahil ayaw ko narin na masyadong patagalin yung oras namin.
"Since we already know that they are compatible with each other. We can start on having tests of blood tests, and others pa po. Siguro mga 2 weeks from now." Sagot nito saakin.
Theo and I simultaneously said our thanks to the doctor because we know how much effort and time he is giving just to heal our daughter.
"My love, did you heard that?" Masayang tanong ni Theo kay Poppy na naka-ngiti saaming dalawa.
"Papa, gagaling na ba ako?" Naka-ngiti rin nitong tanong.
"Yes, my love. You'll get better and we'll be together forever." May halong mga emosyon ang pagkakasabi nito.
"Baby, after being better we'll go out and go anywhere you want." Saad ko rito.
Knowing that her dad is compatible with her, ease my heart. Kasi kung hindi pa ito compatible ay hindi ko na alam kung ano ang gagawin ko pa.
We immediately started having further tests before the surgery and we need to make sure that everything will be going to what we wanted it to be.
Labas masok ang mga doctor at nurses sa kwarto ni Poppy habang si Theo naman ay sa clinic sa ibaba nagte-test.
Habang hinhintay ko sila matapos ang mga test at minessage ko na muna sina Chione at Alice sa group chat namin.
Me: Theo knows already. He's here in the hospital and nag-compatible sila.
Chione: Really? Anong sabi ni Penelope Ivy?
Me: Well alam mo na. Masaya siya mostly cause hindi natin alam na she's longing pala for a father. She's also pretty excited na may dad na siya.
