CHAPTER 41

Salamat sa mga matiyagang naghihintay. Sana hindi kayo magsawang maghintay pa sa mga updates kong mas magiging madalang pa sa madalang. MAJOR SUBJECTS AKO NGAYONG SEMESTER. 6 out of 8 subjects ay major plus may isang pa-major so… 7 out of 10 majors. Kaya paki-expect na lang na matatagalan ang susunod na kabanata.

P.S. Kung kailan malapit nang matapos itong kwento saka naman magiging madalang ang update. Tsk. Tsk. Tsk.

I felt numb. I can’t feel anything. I can’t feel my feet but I know I am moving. I can’t hear the noise in my surroundings. I can’t hear my mother’s cry. I can’t hear the shuffling of feet on the floor. I can’t hear the shouts of the doctors and nurses. I can’t hear the door of the emergency room closed. I can’t hear Greg’s voice talking to me nor can’t I feel his hold on me.

But I can see everything. I saw how my father collapsed on my mother’s arms. I saw how people panicked. I saw how the ambulance came and immediately loaded my father to the hospital. I saw myself being pulled inside a car following the ambulance. I saw how the nurses and doctors pushed my father’s stretcher to the emergency room. I saw how the room’s door closed. I can see how my mother broke down. I saw everything like it was in a slow motion.

And I am just looking straight to the emergency room’s closed doors. Praying that this is just a nightmare and I will be waking up from this bad dream in three, two, one…

But I can’t even blink my eyes.

I feel so numb. And cold. And shitty. And hell.

A tear slid down my eyes and I blinked with the feeling of the cold liquid cascading from my eye. But with that tear, the faucet to my tear gland opened and a dam of tears started to pour.  Kahit gaano ko pilit ihinto ang mga luhang iyon sa pagbuhos ay hindi ito maawat sa paglandas mula sa aking mga mata. Kahit gaano ko punasan ang mga luhang iyon ay patuloy pa rin sila sa masaganang paglandas sa mga mata ko.

Ang tahimik na pag-iyak ko ay nauwi sa hagulhol ng maramdaman ko ang mainit na mga bisig ni Greg na pumalibot sa akin. I buried my face on his chest and grip his shirt while I cried so hard. My screams of pain and agony were muffled. I felt him caressing my hair and my back trying to soothe me.

“S-si… si Daddy…” I mumbled against his chest.

“Dad will be alright, Misis.” he whispered on my ear as he continued soothing me. I felt him kissed the top of my head. “He will be alright. He’s strong, isn’t he?”

Hagulhol ang isinagot ko sa kaniya. Ilang minuto rin ang lumipas bago ako kumalma ng bahagya. Ang kaninang hagulhol na iyak ay pahikbi-hikbi na lamang ngayon. And I was still tucked in Greg’s warm and tight embrace. Bahagya akong lumayo kay Greg at nagpunas ng mga luha at saka suminghot. Nakita ko ang pagkabasa ng damit niya sa parte na naiyakan ko mula pa kanina.

“Sorry, nabasa ko ang damit mo.” mahinang sabi ko sa kaniya habang nakayuko.

“It’s okay, Misis. Maupo muna tayo.” Iginiya niya ako para maupo sa isa sa mga upuan sa labas ng emergency room kung Nasaan pa rin si Daddy. Nakita ko si Mommy na  nakaupo na rin doon at wala pa ring tigil sa pag-iyak.

Nilapitan ko si Mommy at tinabihan sa upuan. I hugged her and her sobs became louder; I cradled her head on my chest and silently sobbed together with her.

“Christian… my husband… my husband… your father.”

“Dad will make it, Mom.” I caressed her back as I whispered those words. “Dad will make it. He will not leave us. Not this time. Not this time, Mom.”
