The Burning Sensation (On-going)

CHAPTER 9

Kinabukasan,maaga akong nagising dahil gusto kong maabutan ang sunrise. Nagbihis lang ako ng white bikini at nagsuot ng see through dress para pantakip.

Palabas na sana ako ng kwarto nang tawagin ako ni Zoriel.

"Where are you going?" aniya.

"Sa labas lang gusto kong maabutan ang sunrise. You want to come?" aniko at tumango siya tsaka nag-ayos. Nagbihis lang siya ng beach short at sando.

I just want moments like this, yung walang problemang iniisip just the waves at ang simoy ng hangin.

"I want a relationship with you, I want to be with you" aniya at nagulat ako sa biglaang sabi niya.

"Don't worry I won't pressure you Sapph, I just want you to know" dagdag na sabi niya.

Sa totoo lang, hindi ko alam kung anong sasabihin ko. Yes, I like him not that I don't want to be with him but it's just that I'm not yet ready to be in a relationship. I'm worried that I won't have much time for him because of work. Well he's a pilot, probably he's very busy like me.

"I'll think about it, just not now.. Let's just stay like this for awhile" aniko.

"Okay" aniya.

After our Hawaii trip, back to work nanaman ako. Well, atleast I got time to relax and unwind. Nakakastress yung kasong hinawakan ko, I received some death threats sa emails ko minsan sa labas ng condo ko o minsan sa law firm ko.

"Rina" tawag ko sa call button.

"Yes ma'am?" aniya at pumasok sa office ko.

"Any updates?" tanong ko habang binasa ang dokumentong hawak ko, kontrata ito ng binili kong lote, I was planning on building my house.

"Yes ma'am.. You have a meeting at 2pm this afternoon with Mr. Valentino, the owner of Givànchi Real Estate." aniya.

"Okay thank you" aniko.

Mr. Valentino scheduled a meeting with me because He wants to discuss some legal matters regarding his business.

Nang matapos ang meeting ko with Mr. Valentino, I went straight home because dad wants to see me, He says its urgent.

"Dad" bungad ko at bumeso sa kanya.

"Hindi na ako magpa ligoy-ligoy pa, y-your mom..." aniya at parang hirap na hirap siyang sabihin yon.

"What's about mom dad?" I said getting nervous about the next thing he'll say.

"Y-your mom has stage 3 brain aneurysm" aniya at para akong binagsakan ng langit at lupa.

"W-what?!" naiiyak na sambit ko.

"Kailangan niya ng operahan sa lalong madaling panahon" aniya.

"Then, paooperahan natin siya Dad!" ani ko at nakatakip ang mga kamay sa mukha dahil bumuhos na ang luha ko.

"Why Dad?! Why the hell didn't you tell us?! Alam ba to ni Selene?!" galit na tanong ko.

"It's b-because your mom don't want me to tell the both of you" aniya.

I'm just wondering why the hell it happened to her, I mean nung huli naming usap okay pa naman siya nun hindi naman siya nagsasabi sa'min. Nalaman lang ni Dad nung nag seizure si mommy nung nakaraang araw. Ngayon lang sinabi ni Dad dahil ayaw ni mommy na ipaalam sa'min ni Selene. Tinawagan ko si Selene at ang sabi niya papunta na siya ng hospital ngayon at susunod ako. Mom was in a coma almost 48hrs of being unconscious.

"Mom lumaban ka! Para sa'min please" ani Selene at umiiyak, pinapatahan ko siya at bumuhos na rin ang luha ko.

Since bawal pumasok ang maraming tao, isa-isa lang dapat yun ang sabi ng doctor ni Mom. Ako ang naunang pumasok dahil iyak ng iyak parin si Selene, inaalo siya ni Dad.
