Chapter 10 - Farewell
Oct. 21, 2005.
Lopez Medical Hospital – Davao City.
1:00 am.
"Is he alright?" Tanong ni Hannah na kanina pa hindi mapakali.
Wala pa siyang tulog dahil dumiretso sila dito sa hospital pagkatapos ng aksidente.
"Fortunately, there is no sign of trauma and he's not badly hurt. Tinahi namin yung braso niya pero hindi naman ganung kalala yun. He'll be okay" Sagot ng doctor.
Nakahinga ng maayos si Hannah at napangiti.
Niyakap niya ang mama niya sa sobrang tuwa.
"Ms, anong room yung anak ko? Mark Calvin Marquez ang pangalan niya?" Napatingin sila sa nurse station ng marinig ang isang matandang babae na sumisigaw.
Halatang nagpapanic ito at takot na takot.
Lumapit naman agad si Hannah bago pa makapagsalita yung nurse.
"Mrs. Marquez?"
The old woman looked at her. "Y-yes?"
"My name is Hannah, kaibigan po ako ni Mark. Andun po yung room niya. Sumunod po kayo sakin"
"Thank you Hannah. But is he okay now?" Halatang naiiyak na tanong ng nanay ni Mark.
"Luckily, yes"
Nagmadaling maglakad si Mrs. Marquez at dire-diretsong pumasok sa room ni Mark.
Hindi naman sumunod si Hannah sa kanya.
She stayed outside.
Mrs. Jenn realized the look in her daughter's face that is why she walked towards her.
"Anak, hindi mo man lang ba kakamustahin si Mark?"
Hannah shook her head. "I don't think I can face him, mom. Ako yung dahilan kung bakit siya nandyan ngayon. He must be angry with me"
Napaiyak si Hannah at awang-awa naman siyang niyakap ng kanyang ina.
"Darling, you wouldn't know not until you enter that room"
"What if he hates me? Ma, ayoko. Natatakot ako"
Her mom cupped her face and smiled at her. "Have faith, Hannah. I don't think Mark will hate you. You said it yourself, sinabi mo sa kanya lahat ng sikreto mo. He knows it's not your fault. Go ahead, talk to him"
Hannah hesitated but her mom pushed her inside.
Nung nagtagpo ang mga mata nila ni Mark ay napaluha na lang ang dalaga.
"Mom?" Mahinang tanong ni Mark.
"What is it? May masakit ba? Anong kailangan mo iho?"
"Can you leave me and Hannah alone for a minute? Maguusap lang po kami" Mark said without looking at his mom.
His eyes were glued at Hannah.
Tumayo na ang nanay niya at ngumiti. "Of course, if that's what you want"
Her mom smiled at Hannah before she walked outside.
"I'm glad you're okay" Mark greeted her.
Hindi nagsalita si Hannah.
Seeing Mark's bruises makes her cry even more.
