Battle of the Past (Seule Fille Series #1)

Chapter 50

Pumunta ako sa gilid niya at nanginginig na hinawakan ang kamay niya. Nanatili pa rin ang tingin niya sa akin, nakita ko rin kung paano manggilid ang luha niya habang nakatingin sa akin.

Halatang hindi siya makapaniwala na narito na ako.

"E-Erin..." Banggit niya pangalan ko at lumuluhang inabot ang pisngi ko. "B-Bumalik ka..."

Tumango ako habang nakangiti. "Nangako ako, diba? Nagpahinga lang ako, Kuya."

Tiningnan ko ang kabuuan niya. At doon bumuhos ang luha ko habang nakatingin sa kaniya. He had a bandage on his head, and he also had many scratches and bruises on his body.

I'm sure he'll complain kapag nakita niya ang mukha niyang may gasgas dahil sa aksidente.

Tumabi ako nang kaunti ng dumating ang Doctor at nilapitan si Kuya na hawak-hawak naman ang kamay ko. Kahit na nasa harapan niya ang Doctor ay nanatili ang tingin niya sa akin.

I watched how the doctor checked him. The doctor asked him some questions, which he answered properly. And when the doctor was satisfied with his answers, he faced us with a smile.

"Good news. He's fine." The doctor gave us a genuine smile. "I have to admit, I didn't expect it. This is unexpected, Rius."

"What do you mean, Chad?" Nagtataka tanong ni Daddy, nagkatinginan pa nga sila ni Mommy.

Nagkatinginan naman kami ni Kuya at palipat-lipat ang tingin sa kanila. Paano niya nalaman ang nickname ni Daddy? Magkakilala ba sila?

"I just didn't expect your son to wake up right away. I expect it will take a month before he wakes up because he was in such bad condition when he was rushed here." The doctor, whose name was Chad, shrugged. "But it's fine, and it's good news that he woke up early. Don't worry, your child is fine. He just needs a lot of rest dahil mahina pa ang katawan niya, kailangan niya pa ng lakas. And I will just prescribe the medicines so that he can continue his recovery," ngumiti siya sa amin.

"Thank you, Chad." Sabay na sabi nina Mommy at Daddy dahilan para matawa ang doctor.

Nagawi naman sakin ang paningin ng doctor at nakita kong napakurap siya bago ulit tumingin sa magulang ko.

"Bumalik na pala ang anak niyo." Gulat na sabi ng doctor.

"Yeah," ngumiti si Daddy. "Itatali ko na iyan sa susunod."

Napanguso ako dahil sa sinabi ng tatay ko. Habang narinig ko naman ang tawa nila.

"By the way, he's Dr. Chandler Ian Gonzales, one of my children friends. He's also the owner of this hospital, the Gonzales Hospital." Pagpapakilala ni Daddy sa kaniya. "And Chad, this is my son Flynn Kinsley and my only daughter Faye Katherine."

Wait, he's a Gonzales? Does that mean he is related to Chase, who is also a Gonzales?

Tinitigan ko siya nang maiigi at namilog ang mga mata ko. Marami silang pagkakapareho ni Chase! Mula sa kilay, sa pilik-mata, sa matangos nilang ilong, sa bilugan na mata, at sa labi.

Is this Chase's dad?

"I know them already."

"Sino?"
