Only if we tried

Prologue

SHEY'S POV

"Babe what do you want to eat?" tanong ni louie bestfriend ko.

"Salad na lang babalik pa ako sa hospital after neto" nagmamadaling sabi ko kasi 1 hour break lang ako now. Nagpacover lang ako saglit.

"Bakit? Emergency patient?" she asked. While waiting for the food to be serve.

"Hindi naman, may operation kasi si Doc. Caliboso kaya nag assist ako" I explained.

Dumating na yung pagkain namin kaya napatingala kami sa waiter. Hindi muna kami nag usap galit galit muna kami.

"Uuwi ka ba mag isa ngayon? or may susundo sayo?" I asked, galing kasi siyang ibang bansa dahil may inasikaso sa business nila don nagtagal siya for 2 weeks kaya may maleta siya pero isa lang naman dahil may bahay naman sila don.

"Yup, si kuya im fine naman kaya bilisan mo na diyan" pagtataray niya.

Wala sa mood, nakwento niya kasing nakita nya ex niya sa France tapos kinausap siya ng parang balewala lang nangyaring past sakanila noon kaya naiirita. Natatawa ako pero if ganon din naman sakin baka mainis din ako, mas okay pa ata ignore kesa makipag usap ng parang 'di ka nasaktan.

"Alis na ako ikaw na bahala"

Nagpanic siya "hala teka wait lang boba,may party ako sa friday kaya need ka dun okay? I invited your bestfriend btw" she winked, trying to tease me and it did work.

Annoyed tuloy akong lumabas, she always invite him kahit alam niyang hindi siya pupunta. Wala ng paramdam yun kaya bat pa mangungulit sa multo?poging multo ba 'yon, eh hindi naman kaya wag siya pakipot leche.

Friday came, It's early in the morning 6am- 6pm shift ko ngayon. I brought coffee para bigyan mga kaibigan ko dito sa hospital. Pati na rin nurses

"Thanks doc!" Nurse Cami said.

Im now a third year resident here in Eilfarco Hospital. 28 years old and single.

"Anong oras ulit surgery mamaya?" I asked kasi alam ko may i- aassist nanaman ako mamaya. May 5 mins pa ako bago mag rounds. I have someone under me kaya hindi na ganon kahirap hindi tulad dati during clerkship and intern days.

"Yes doc ito po" she handed me the charts. Dalawa lang naman kaya medyo nakakagulat.

After thoroughly reading the charts, I gave it back to her and prepares to make the rounds.

It's already 7 at katatapos ko lang sa pangalawang surgery. I did one last rounds before heading home.
I had 3 surgeries in a day and it was tiring. Someone died on the operating table and I still cant get use to it.

Pagdating na pagdating ko sa condo ay humiga agad ako. Ubos na energy ko. I stared at the ceiling hanggang sa makatulog.

I woke up at 9 to prepare. I reheat my dinner dahil hindi ako pwedeng lumaklak ng walang laman tiyan ko. After that I did my things.

Nag aayos na ako ng tumawag siya "where are you? do i have to pick you up or what? bagal mo" inis na sumbat niya.

I laughed, "dummy im omw just wait" paniguradong madami ng tao kaya hinahanap ako. The party can start without me what is she waiting for? she sounds  like a brat lol she really is.

She organized the party kasi this month lang siya nakauwi. Pero nung pagkauwi niya nagkaproblema sa business nila sa isang bansa kaya umalis din agad, no time for a party tapos ngayon na lang ulit nakauwi.

Im wearing a black thin strap v-neck dress and a black stilettos. I let my hair flow. Im driving my car because i dont have plans on getting drunk and I have high tolerance when it comes with alcohol so I can manage.
