ALASTAIR POV
I was about to hit the last ball when suddenly my cellphone rang, someone was calling on the messenger, so I put down the tako first to take the cellphone from my pocket.
Nang pag-tingin ko sa screen ng aking cellphone nakita ko ang mukah ni Zyrielle kaya napataas ako ng kilay.
Is he calling me? Is he willing to let me pick him up at the coffee shop and take him to 7-eleven, Nang matuwa sa naiisip ay sinagot ko na agad ang tawag ni Zyrielle.
"Elle? Why?" I ask with a smirked on my lips.
May narinig ako tumikhim ngunit hindi iyon boses ng Zyrielle kaya napakunot ako ng noo.
"Who is it? Why do you have Zyrielle's phone?" I asked while still frowning.
"Ka-trabaho ito ni Zy, nasa ospital s'ya ngayon, isinugod ko dahil nahimatay sya ang sabi ng doctor ay over fatigue raw." The person said on the other line with a cold voice but the concern was obvious in his voice.
Suddenly, my chest heaved loudly and fear consumed me, I was stunned while holding the cellphone to my ear. I could hear the man on the other line talking but I couldn't understand it.
I just came back to myself when Kyle tapped me on my shoulder.
"Alas bakit? Anong ng yayari? Sino 'yang kausap mo?" He asked while frowning, the worry on his face was obvious as he noticed that I was acting strangely.
"Z-zyrielle is i-in the h-hospital... H-he passed out." I answered him.
"What!?" He screamed and snatched the phone from my hand.
Napasabunot ako saaking buhok ng mas lalong matauhan.
Tangina? Anong ng yari kay Zyrielle?
I approached Kyle who was talking to the man now.
"What he say? Which hospital is Zyrielle at?" Pag mamadali ko kay Kyle dahil sobra na ang kabog ng dibdib ko dahil sa pag-aalala kay Zyrielle.
"Nasa Dela Roca Hospital raw si Zyrielle, mauna ka na roon ihahatid ko muna si Tres at susunod ako" he said turning his gaze to Tres.
I nodded my head as I hurried down because we were on the second floor. When I got to the car, I immediately drove the car to the hospital that Kyle mentioned, it would take me about an hour from here on South to Dela Roca hospital.
Tangina. Masyado kasi s'yang determinado sa pag t-trabaho masyado n'yang pinapagod ang sarili n'ya.
Pag-uwi galing sa school ay nag papahinga sya, pag sapit ng alasingko ng hapon mag t-rabaho sya sa coffee shop, at kung araw naman ng Lunes, Miyerkules, Biyernes, at sabado pumapasok naman s'ya sa 7-eleven at hindi pa s'ya kuntento! Pumapasok pa s'ya ng araw ng linggo! He is pushing his body too much. Kahit na may kalakihan ang katawan niya'y hindi pa rin s'ya uubra pag tinamaan s'ya ng sakit. I found out about his work schedule because of Adi, Adi and I always had video calls and our whole conversation was about his brother.
So I have a notebook with everything Zyrielle likes and dislikes.
When I got to the front of Dela Roca Hospital, I got off to my car and didn't even bother to park properly because I was nervous.
"Good evening Miss, where is Zyrielle Cane Primavera's room?" I ask the nurse in front of me.
Napasinghap naman ang nurse ng tignan ako. "K-kaano a-ano po k-kayo ng pasyente?" Nauutal na tanong nito.
I pulled back my long hair that had been removed from the bun and took a deep breath and sighed as I adjusted my glasses.
"I'm his boyfriend." Malamig na sagot ko sakanya.
I'm sorry Elle.
"P-po? O-okay po." Utal na sabi nito ay may hinanap sa isang book na nasaharap nya. Hinahanap siguro ang numero ng kwarto ni Zyrielle. "Room 114 po sir." Ani nito.
I nodded and thanked her and hurriedly ran to the elevator. Because room 114 is on the second floor, I know that because I have been admitted here once.
Shit. Ang lakas ng kabog ng dibdib ko.
When the elevator opened, I quickly got out and looked for Zyrielle's room, when I entered I saw Zyrielle lying on the bed and he was still unconscious, I also saw a man sitting near Zyrielle's bed.
I sniffed to get the man's attention. When he heard my voice, he turned to me and stood up.
"Ikaw ba 'yung una kong naka-usap?" He asks with a cold voice.
"Yes." I answered him.
Tumingin ito uli ay Zyrielle. "Over fatigue raw ang sabi ng doctor." Pag uumpisa nya. "Palagi kasi itong maraming ginagawa sa coffee shop lahat ng pwedeng gawin ay ginagawa nya." Dagdag pa nito. "Nag t-trabaho rin s'ya sa 7-eleven, pag alas dies na ng gabi ay out nya na sa coffee shop" ani nito syaka tumingin saaking muli. "Masyadong pinapagod ang sarili't dala dalawa ang trabaho." Pahabol pa nya na ikinatango ko.
"Mauuna na ako hindi pa tapos ang trabaho ko sa coffee shop. Wala ring nag babantay roon dahil parehas kaming wala ni Zyrielle." He said.
I just nodded and thanked him for taking Zyrielle to the hospital. He also nodded and left.
Mag a-alas dies na ng gabi.
I sat down in the man's seat earlier, I took a deep breath and combed my hair again, I also fixed it by tying it in a bun.
looking at Zyrielle's condition, he is pale and also has eyebags, halatang pagod na pagod sa ka-ka-aral at ka-ka-trabaho.
Tangina masyado kasing pinapagod ang sarili.
If all he needs is money, I have a lot! He doesn't need to strain himself any more.
Nang mapansing nagmumulat na ng mata si Zyrielle ay nilapit ko pa ang upuan sa kama nya para kausapin ito at kamustahin.
