CHAPTER 13 - "CAUSE" 

I can’t believe it. Hinatid ako ni Ken. Wrong timing nga lang kasi inatake nanaman ako. Mabuti nalang at hindi masyadong malala. Stressed lang siguro ako.

As my doctor mentioned before I have CHD, Coronary Heart Disease. I was born with CHD. Unlucky, right? My great aunt had one. She died when she was 19. She was too young, hindi na siya nakapag aral, lagi daw kasi silang pabalik-balik sa ospital. [*note: Great aunt = sister of grandparent]

Sana hindi ako maging katulad niya. Gusto ko pang mabuhay ng matagal, gusto ko pang magkapamilya. Kaya nga kahit nahihirapan na ako, pinapatuloy ko parin yung pagpapagamot ko. Dahil ayokong sayangin yung natitira kong oras.

I don’t get it why people having this kind of disease or worse than mine, would like to end their suffering without trying to help theirselves getting cured. I don’t want to loose hope. I got my mom, my friends who loves and supports me. Bakit ko naman sasayangin yun?

Only my family and Alex knew about my disease. I don’t want anyone to know kasi they would treat me differently. I want to be normal. My mom and I argued once about me going to school. She wants me to be home schooled. And I said no. I told her if I won’t go to a normal school I won’t feel like one and maybe that stroke her. She wants me to be happy, to be normal.

“Gabby, are you okay? Tita called and told me what happened last Friday!”

“Chill Alex! I’m okay, its not like I have died or something.”

“Chill? How can you chill after that? I could never imagine what could ever happen to you.” She hugged me and I think she’s crying.

“Alex, please stop crying you are making me cry.”

“Eh, ikaw naman kasi, pinagalala mo ako. Teka? Saan ka ba galing noong Friday?”

“Alex, I have to go to work.”

“Eh, akala ko ba hatid sundo ka ng driver mo? Bakit di ka nalang niya diniretso sa ospital?”

“I am with Ken that night. Hinatid niya ako sa bahay.”

“No way? Ken? As in Kenneth?”

“Yes. Nasa club siya noong Friday.”

“What is he doing there?” Actually, that made me think too. Bakit kaya siya nandoon? Is it because of... –me?

Ayoko mag assume pero, could it be? Does he like me? Gusto narin kaya niya ako? The thought brought sparks to my eyes and nahalata din ni Alex.

“Oh? Bakit parang masaya ka?”

“Alex, what if gusto narin niya ako?”

“Who? Ken? Possible, pero diba he and Isabella are going out?”

“Really? Like on a date?”

“Yeah, last time. Nakita sila ng classmate ko sa mall.” Oh.

“Maybe, they just bumped to each other.”

“Gabby, they went to the movies.” Oh.

“Maybe, well, maybe... maybe...”

“Maybe they are going out and they were really on a date and maybe they could be together, soon.”

“NO! He likes me. I know that. I can see it.”

“Gabby. Please, calm down. Baka atakihin ka nanaman.”

I took a deep breath. Be calm Gab, be calm.

“Alex, alam kong may gusto narin siya sa akin. Call me assuming pero I can feel it.”

“What ever you say Gab. Halika na at mal-late na tayo.”

Noong pumasok na kami ng room, nakita ko si Ken. I just smiled at him and he smiled back.

Oh, he’s gorgeous, alam mo yung itsura palang niya nagpapakalma na? yung mata niya medyo singkit, it sparkles. Literally, hindi ako nagd-day dream. It really did sparkle, maybe sa reflection lang ng ilaw but it did. Ang smile niya na makalaglag panty. [A/N: Excuse me for the expression! LOL!] Paano kaya nagawa ng magulang niya ang ganyang kagwapong anak? Grabe, pagkatapos ang talino pa. Sana if ever na kami yung magkatuluyan ganyan din kaganda o kagwapo ang magiging anak namin, sa ganda kong to at sa kagwapuhan niya? Hindi malayong good results ang combination namin, HA HA! Siyempre sa kanya magmamana yung katalinuhan, sa akin naman kahit talent lang.

“Hey Gabby!”

“Ay, anak natin gwapo!” SINABI KO BA TALAGA YUN??? Naku naman!

“Ano?” Holy Sh*t! si Ken.

“Ay, ano? Ano sabi mo?”

“Sabi ko okay ka na ba?”

“Ah, o-oo okay na ako. Salamat nga pala ulit sa paghatid ha!”

“Please don’t do that again.”

“Do what? Getting drunk? Trust me, I wont.”

“No, making me worry.” Tapos, bumalik na siya sa upuan niya.

Wala, wala na. Natulala na ako mukha na akong ewan dito! CONCERN siya sa akin! Grabe! Ang saya ko, sobra! Naku, tumatambling na ako sa isip ko! Grabe!

Natapos lang ang klase namin, walang pumapasok sa isip ko! Loading parin ata sa nangyari kanina.
