The Love Of Fate

Chapter 2

SHEENA'S POV. (Shane's mother)

I switch to dave to look after my daughter. My daughter is in commatose after that accident. I know my daughter is strong. Malalagpasan niya lahat ng ito. I trust her and also god. I pray for her all the time because I wanted her to wake up soon. I miss you honey.

Sabi ng doctor matatagalan pa bago ito magising. Stable na rin ang condition n'ya but it's not one hundred percent. Dagdag pa ng doctor may mga pagbabagong mangyayari sa kanya pag-nagising s'ya. I dont care all of that changes all I want is she wake up soon.

Mahal ko iyang anak ko. Only child lang 'yan kaya iniingatan namin 'yan. Hindi ko sinisisi si dave kasi pareho naming alam na aksidenti lang lahat. I trust dave too that's why we trust him for taking care of Shane.

It's been a month since the accident was happen but my daughter was still in coma. Araw-araw natatakot ako dahil hindi ako sigurado kung anong sasalubong sa akin. Araw-araw para akong pinapatay sa takot.

Nabanggit sa akin ni doc na kung gusto namin s'ya ilipat para mapabilis ang paggaling n'ya ayos lang din daw. It's much better. Pero nagdedesisiyon pa kami ni Rastin. Rastin is my husband. Pinagiisipan namin kung ililipat ba namin s'ya pero inaalala ko si dave. I know they're still young, their relationship prove me that they can handle a mature relationship. I watch them grow. That's why I'm so fondless to Dave.

Magiging mahirap ito para sa kanya. Lalo't na't hindi pa rin gising si shane. May kunting takot akong nararamdaman dahil 'don sa changes na mangyayari kay shane I doub't that it is losing her memories kasi sa mga ganitong situation I know baka gano'n talaga. Doc said that we need to stay put when once Shane is awake. We need to be there.

Kailangan kami ang una niyang makita ang mga mahal niya sa buhay but what about dave?

Natigil ang pag-iisip ko ng may maramdaman akong may tumabi sa akin. Nilingon ko ito. It was my husband holding a cup of hot coffee.

"Ang lalim yata ng iniisip mo?" Tanong niya saka inabot ang isang cup ng coffee na dala niya. Kinuha ko ito at uminom ng kaunti. I need this. I need to stay awake.

"I was thinking if my decision were right." sagot ko at tumingin sa kanya. Tumango ito.

"Well... Shane is our daughter. Gagawin natin ang makakabuti para sa kanya bilang magulang niya. Sheena, you are a mother. Alam ko magiging tama rin ang magiging desisyon mo. Don't forget about me. I'm here. I will help you making our decision for our daughter." paliwanang niya saka ngumiti. Thank God. I don't know what will happen if I don't have him. I need his words.

"I know. May inalala lang ako. How about dave? It's hard for the both of them specially for dave"sagot ko.  Rastin hold my hand kaya napalingon ako sa kanya at gumanti rin ng hawak.

"Dave is still young. Baka magbago pa ang isip nila. If they really destined together they will met no matter how far they're location is. That was destiny do. Even though they're away from each other, the destined will do something to make them near to each other. I trust dave too pero ang anak natin ang unahin natin ngayon dahil s'ya ang mas kailangan natin ngayon tsaka na natin alalahanin si dave kung nagising na si Shane." Mahabang paliwanag ni rastin. I tear a bit because of his words. Niyakap ko agad siya.

"Thank you." I mumbled.

Maybe it's time to make my final decision. Rastin is right. Ang anak ko muna ang unahin ko. Beside they're still young. Marami pa silang pweding gawin in their young age. Although, all I want for my daughter is the man like Dave. I want Dave for my daughter. I seen him being so loving and caring to my daughter. That's enough for me to like him.

Naalimpungatan ako sa pagkakaidlip sa upuan. Nakasandal sa bintana ng room ni shane. We're not allowed to go outside. Tanaw lang namin siya na parang mahimbing na natutulog. Tumingin ako sa katabi ko. Si dave tapos sumilip muna ako sa relo ko sa braso ko tapos tiningnan ko ulit si dave. Where's my husband?

"Tita hindi pa ba kayo uuwi? It's already 9:45pm. Ako na muna ang magbabantay kay shane para makapagpahinga na po kayo. If it's okay po?" Kita ko ang alinlangan niya kaya I slightly tap his arm to calm him.

"Ah... Thank you dave but you should've attend your class tomorrow hindi pweding hindi ka pumasok. Ilang araw ka ng absent. Take it this time. Don't worry I'm here to take care of my daughter. Just focus on your studies." paliwanag ko. I don't want him to fail in studying.

"But-" pinutol ko ang sasabihin niya

"Dave you have to listen to me, okay?!"

Tumango siya at tsaka tumalikod at nagsimula ng umalis pero pinigilan ko. I'm sorry for forcing you Dave.

"Dave. I have something to tell you"
Umupo ulit siya sa tabi ko at tiningnan ako.

"What is it tita?"He ask. He look nervous. I cleared my throat before talking.

"I think this is the better time to inform you this dave. I knew it's hard for the both of you especially on your side." panimula ko.

"Huh?Ano po ba 'yon tita??" tanong ni dave. Bakas sa mukha niya ang pagtataka sa mga sinabi ko.

"I will be direct to you. We've made our decission now."

"What decision tita?" Tanong niya

Humugot mo na ako ng hangin bago magsalita. I'm nervous na baka maging complicated ang pagpapaliwanag ko. Baka ma-misunderstood niya lang lahat ito. I'm still hoping.

"Dave we've decided to transfer Shane in US at doon niya ipagpapatuloy ang paggaling niya and doon na rin kami titira until her full recovery. Lilipat kami." sabi ko. As much as possible I want to speak directly to the point because I want him to understand. I won't beat around the bush.

I'd decided this but as much as possible I want to talk to him slowly so he can understand my point of this. All I can do is to inform him about this because I don't want him to feel bad for not wanting to be with my daughter. My husband has a part on this and he support me on this. And that's enough for me to go on this.

Ito lang ang choice dahil hindi pa rin gumigising ang anak ko. Baka pagtumagal baka hindi ko na kayanin at mawala ako sa sarili ko para sa nag-iisang anak ko. She's the reason why our family was so happy. God gave me a beautiful gift that I will treasure all my life. A better solutions was on our faces right now and no one can say no because this all about life, my daughter's life.

                SOMEONE'S POV.

"Sir. Its all done. It's in comatose."

"What a great job. Now."

Inabot ko ang isang bag na naglalaman ng pera. I throw it in front of him then I get my gun and pointed at him. The world needs money. Money can control and overpower people's mind. It's easy to play and make human follow your command when you have money's.

Nataranta siya at hindi alam kung anong gagawin. I look at him coldly while my gun are still pointing at him. I blow the smoke from my mouth from the cigarette that I've been holding on the other hand. I'm sitting on my swivel chair while watching him, trembling.

"Listen carefully. Don't you dare open your fucking mouth or I'll cut your tounge. 'Wag kang magkakamaling magsalita tungkol dito at sa nangyari. Kapag nabalitaan kong nagbigay ka ng statement or tungkol dito. Hintayin mong pag-uwi mo ay walang buhay na pamilya mo ang makikita mo. Now go!!!" Sigaw ko. Good job. Now all I can do was to play. This is a great part for this kind of vengeance.

Nagkumahog naman siyang kunin ang bag at tumakbo palabas. I swear you gonna pay for this little scumbag.

Tinignan ko ang litrato na nakalatag sa harap ko. Ibinuga ko ang usok mula sa sigarilyong ginagamit ko. My lips thug up while staring at those picture. You better be ready for this 'cause I don't stop until you bleed. Sorry but you need to say good bye too. Sorry inuna ko lang talaga ang kasiyahan ng anak mo. You have to be thankful 'cause you're not the first one.

I puffed my cigarettes and blow it on the air. I'm thinking of the girl who accidentally hit by truck. Opps it's not accidentally. I laughed as I picture the whole situation. This is a good start
