BS#7: The Billionaire's First Love -COMPLETE-

Chapter 34

－－－－－－－－－－

NASA labas kami ng emergency room ngayon dahil biglang nawalan ng malay si mommy habang palabas ito ng library. We still don't know kung anong cause ng pagkahimatay niya dahil hindi parin lumalabas yung doctor in charge ni Mommy.

"Everything will be alright." And I felt Miguel sitting beside me and embraced me. Even though my mom did horrible things to me, I just can't stop worrying about her.

After all, she is still my mother.

Kaming dalawa lang ni Miguel ang nakaupo sa bench na malapit sa emergency room. Sina Daddy at ang mga magulang ni Miguel ay nakatayo lahat sila.

Miguel's mom is a kind person. She's blaming herself kung bakit nahimatay si Mommy. Kung sanang naging maayos lang daw ang usapan baka hindi raw kami umabot sa puntong to.

Napatayo ng maayos ang lahat dahil may lumabas na doctor sa emergency room at yun ang doctor in charge ni Mommy.

"Doc! Kamusta ang asawa ko?" "Anong nangyari ho kay Mommy?" Sabay na tanong namin sa Doktor.

"It seems like she's experiencing concussion from her past accident. She needs a thorough examination to her brain. We will move her to the psychiatric ward." Paliwanag ng Doktor at iniwan niya na kami.

Concussion? Accident?

"Daddy, anong aksidente ang sinasabi ni ng doktor?" Naguguluhang tanong ko sa kaniya.

Napaupo si Daddy sa bench at nagtakip ng mukha gamit ang dalawang palad niya.

"Car accident." Mahinang sagot niya pero narinig parin namin.

Parang tumigil sa paggalaw ang paligid ko. Bakit hindi ko narinig ang ganitong detalye sa buhay ni Mommy?

Or I'm not that interested in her life dahil sa ginawa niya saakin?

"When...was that?" Tanong kong muli sa kanya. I'm unsure with my emotions now, hindi ko alam kung ano ba tong nararamdaman ko.

"Before she gave birth to the two of you." Panimula niya sa kwento niya at huminga ng malalim.

"She didn't want to go to the hospital to check her condition because she was afraid that something might happen to the two of you. It was my fault that time because I didn't drive carefully and we hit a wall. I was nervous and scared while driving  dahil pumutok na ang panubigan ng mommy mo and I didn't noticed that there was a wall in front us. Her head was hit at the wind shield kaya mas lalong dumagdag ang takot ko." And his tears start to fall. I can feel how he was hurt with his words.

"Maraming tumulong saamin that time at dumating sa oras ang ambulansya kaya agad na naagapan ang mga natamo naming sugat at naagapan ang pagdurugo ng Mommy mo." Patuloy na kwento nito.

"But we found a problem, she was unconscious before she gave birth to the both of you. Luckily, she witnessed how Haizel born but she didn't witnessed how you were born and that's why she thought that you were my child from another woman." Ngayon na pinapaliwag na ni Daddy ang mga nangyayari noon, unti-unti naliliwanagan na ang lahat. Pero hindi parin ako mapakali kasi parang may kulang sa kwento kung bakit ayaw ni mommy saakin.

"How about her ultrasound check ups? Hindi po ba sinabi ng doctor na kambal ang anak niyo?" It was Miguel who asked the question. He was also listening to my Dad's story while standing beside me and holding my hand.

"She didn't want to know about the gender of the baby. Gusto niyang masopresa kami kapag nakita na namin si baby. They checked their heartbeats pero hindi binanggit ng doktor na kambal pala ang bata sa loob." I frown as I heard his explanation.

Minsan hindi ko talaga mabasa yung isip ni Mommy. Silang dalawa ni Daddy actually. Ang hirap basahin ng mga isip nila.

"Daddy naman, ano ba namang trip niyo ni Mommy. Dahil sa surprised na gusto niyong mangyari, nagkandaleche leche yung buhay ko." Reklamo ko sa kanya. Nasaktan ako both physically and mentally dahil sa ginawa nilang yun. Napakagaling.

"I know, it was our fault to begin with. And I'm guilty as fuck." Sagot ni Daddy na ikinagulat ko dahil sa sinabi niyang "Guilty as fuck"

Medyo nakakapanibago dahil hindi naman palamura si Daddy lalo na kapag may nga bata sa bahay. My father is kind but coward. My mother is sophisticated but childish. Haizel is a jolly person but clumsy. Habang ako, ganda lang ang ambag ko, may problema pa sa emosyon.

"Daddy, nasa ospital tayo kaya stop cussing muna." Pagbawal ko sa kanya. Tumingin ako sa paligid kung may nakarinig pero buti nalang wala kaya nakahinga akong maluwag. Medyo malakas kasi ang pagbigkas niya ng mura na yon.

"Oh, I'm sorry. My bad." Agad na paghingi niya ng tawad.

"Tutal narinig mo na ang paliwanag ni Daddy mo, let's hear your mom's explanation." Miguel's mom said at tumango ako sa kanya.

After hearing my Dad's story, parang tumaas bigla yung possibility na makuha ko na ang kalayaang gusto ko.

She's right. It's time to hear my mom's explanation. Kapag hindi siya nagexplain saakin, susunugin ko yung mga collection niyang bag. Alam ko kung saan nakatago ang mga yun so I'm gonna build my courage to make her talk para matapos na rin tong lahat.

"Okay po. Thank you po tita for being helping us." I sincerely said at tumayo para yakapin siya.

"No worries, Hija. Since you are already part of our family." Aniya at niyakap ako pabalik.

"Thank you so much, Kumpare at Kumare. Let us repay you once everything is settled." Dad said at pinunasan ang luha niya bago makipagkamayan sa mga magulang ni Miguel.

"No need for that. Basta masaya ang mga bata, ayos na kami." Sagot ng Daddy ni Miguel.

If you are wondering kung nasaan si Cibrina, umuwi na sila kanina. She needs to rest dahil pinagod ata ni Boss Aaron nung isang araw si Cibrina.

A nurse suddenly approached us and said,
"Sir, nalipat na po namin siya. You can visit her na po."

Nagpasalamat kami sa nurse bago ito naglahong parang bula. Humawak ako sa kamay ni Daddy para alalayan siyang maglakad. Nanghina kasi to kanina dahil sa pagiyak na ginawa niya.

Tumulong din si Miguel sa pagalalay kay Daddy para talagang maayos na makakarating kami sa room ni Mommy.

Nang makarating kami sa harap ng kwarto ni Mommy, huminga ako ng malalim dahil oras na para marinig ang mga paliwanag niya. Nasa tabi ko naman si Miguel kaya magiging maayos lang ako.

Miguel is already my strength and also my weakness. As long as I can see Miguel, I know I can get through anything. At dahil si Miguel ang laging andyan para saakin, napagdesisyon kong kay Miguel lang dapat ako kikiligin.

As I held the doorknob, my heart start to race and my hand is starting to get sweat. Huminga akong malalim sa panghuling minuto bago buksan ang pinto.

It's time to end this misery.
