(Jassy's POV)
(SKIP)
Nakauwi na ako. my gosh ganun na ba kasama ang mundo? Imagine, people are mad at me for not doing anything. "Well, what do you expect Jassy, people will blame anything to you without any evidence. Masanay ka na, your father is a politician. " Sabi ko sa aking sarili habang nakaharap sa salamin.
"Septermber 10" "Ay ganorn, birthday ko na pala bukas, well wala naman nang bago. Wala namang ibang guests kundi sina lolo and lola and mga tao. Bakit mga tao, natural buhay ng politiko. Kahit anong event ni dad, laging invited lahat. Hindi ko mashadong pinapahalagahan ang mga birthday celebrations ko. Bakit? Kasi hindi kami complete. Oo wala akong paki sa nanay ko kung sino man siya, but still sana naman siguro alam niyang may anak siya. Ni "hi" "hello" wala akong natanggap sa tanang buhay ko.
Anyway, may quiz bee pa pala ako bukas."Jassy, tanggalin sa isip ang ina at birthday okay? Focus." sabi ko sa aking sarili at kinuha ang reviewer na binigay ng principal.
(8:00 PM)
(Jessie's POV)
Late nanaman akong nakauwi. Halos walang ilaw na nakabukas sa loob ng bahay kundi ang ilaw sa labas ng pintuan. Binuksan ko yung ilaw banda sa sala at talaga namang wala kang maririnig kundi katahimikan. Pumunta ako sa room ko at nagpalit ng pampabahay. Lumabas ako sa kwarto ko at kumatok sa room ni Jassy. And apparently, walang sumasagot kaya binuksan ko nalang bigla. Buti naman walang masamang nangyari sa batang toh. Ung tipong sobra ung pag-aalala ko tapos nakasuot ng headphone na nakaupo lang palang nagbabasa.
Nang pumasok ako, ibinaling niya ang kanyang ulo at agad na tinanggal ang kanyang headphone.
"Have you had dinner?" I asked.
Jassy: "Bakit, anong oras na ba?" Tanong niya at tinignan ang kanyang phone.
I sighed and sat next to her on the couch.
"Ano bang binabasa mo at nakalimutan mong nagdinner?" I said grabbing the paper she's reading.
"SANGGUNIANG KABATAAN QUIZ September 11"
Jassy: It's for my quiz tomorrow. If I will win, I will represent the region for nationals. Will you be there?
Wala akong maisagot sakanya hindi dahil hindi ako makakapunta kundi dahil paano kung manalo siya, may chance na magkikita sila ni Irene. Hindi ko pinagdadamot si Jassy, but what will be her reaction, Irene's reaction, her family's reaction, the people's reaction if they will discover that my daughter is a Marcos?
"Yes I'll be there. Do your best for tomorrow, I may not be able to say that to you tomorrow as I will be leaving early. What time will it start?"
Jassy: Around 1 in the afternoon.
"Okay, makakahabol pa naman ako. Gusto mong kumain? Magorder nalang tayo." I asked.
Jassy: Hindi na dad, hindi ko bet kumain.
"Okay then, good night. Rest for tomorrow." I said as I kissed her forehead and left her room.
SEPTEMBER 11
(Irene's POV)
"Jess, take me to the hospital right now! Ahhhhhh!!!" I commanded him as I shouted on top of my lungs.
(SKIP)
We are here inside the operating room as the doctors said that my baby wants to come out already.
Doctor: "Irene, push."
She said calmly as I push with all my heart out, holding Jessie's hands. I can feel that he is worried as his palms are sweaty and tears are forming in his eyes.
(Jessie's POV)
Ganon pala feeling ng makitang nanganganak kasintahan mo. She's screaming as if she's going to die any moment. I do nothing but hold her hands ang stare at her in the eye. Tears are forming but I can't let it fall.
Doctor: "Okay Irene, one more. On the count of 3. 1...2...3 PUSH!"
Irene: "Ahhhhh!!!!!" she shouted and breathed heavily
"Love you did it." I said as I kissed her. Instead of what I'm expecting to be a noisy atmosphere, it became a quiet one.
Doctor: "Do CPR!" she commanded the nurses.
Irene: "What happened? Why isn't my baby crying?" she asked crying. The staff didn't pay any attention to us as they are trying to revive my child. I can't help but cry as I see Irene crying.
"Why isn't she crying?!" I shouted at them while still holding Irene's hands.
They applied CPR to my child for a couple of minutes before...
Doctor: "I'm sorry. Time of death: 2:36 AM." she said as I grabbed my child from their arms not looking back at Irene, hoping that I can still revive her. I can still hear her crying but for a short period of time.
Doctor: "Sir, you need to accept your child's demise. You are crushing her." She said but I still continued to do the CAB (compressions, airway, and breathing; parts of CPR). I did it for more than a minute and felt her breathing as she starts crying. I sighed in relief as the staff took her away from me.
I looked back at Irene, she's unconscious.
