:The downfall 3

After what happened last night, Charles was worried sick of his abuela and he even blamed himself.

He was now resting his head on his abuela's body who is resting also at her own bed, he couldn't sleep that night but hours before, he just dozed off to sleep. He woke up in a sudden when his abuela was caressing his hair calmly.

"Abuela! are you okay? May naramdaman ka bang sakit? Lo siento mucho abuela." he seemed very worried while checking his abuela but she just smiled at him.

"It's okay mi hijo, did you sleep well?" she asked not minding his other questions so Charles then sighed and gave her a sad smile.

"Not really, kamusta na ang pakiramdam mo? Do you need something?" he asked her but then his abuela just shaked her head on the bed and smiled again at him.

Charles left his abuela for a moment to get her something to drink and told the maids to prepare some healthy breakfast for her so they just nodded.

"Lo siento for what happened last night." Charles told the maids while he's getting some water kaya agad silang umiling at ngumiti, he wanted to show them some apologies because he can see that they're reallt bothered on what happened last night.

"It's fine señorito and we're also sad for you."

"Nah, I'm fine, kumain na rin kayo okay?" Charles told them and gave them a smile before leaving.

"Gracias mi hijo, you should rest now, siguradong pagod ka ngayon at nag-aalala parin ako sayo." She ordered him pero umiling lamang si Charles at hinayaan siyang uminom nang tubig.

"Doctor Muñoz will be coming here later to check on you, I'm so very worried of you abuela, I'm really sorry, kung hindi dahil sakin hindi ka naging ganito."

"Don't mind me mi hijo, I'm still alive okay? Don't worry on me too much." She said while laughing at him and then she cupped his face and looked at him with those worried eyes.

Señora Soledad was very sad for him and what she did last night was not yet enough for her to make his parents realize his pain, she also blamed herself too because she didn't realize this at the first place and she always think that she was not deserving to be loved like this from her grandson, looking at him right now really made her left a tear, she can see those pain in his eyes everytime he was forced and being ignored by his mother.

"Why are you crying abuela?" Charles stuttered while looking at her left a single tear but then his abuela just beamed at him.

"No matter what they do to you mi hijo, just be strong, fight even if they're your love ones because in the end you're still be in pain, chase your freedom and be with the person who will makes you smile and when the time comes that they will force you again even if you sacrifice yourself and experience a lot of pain, just always pick what is right to fight for." She said and then hugged him tightly.

"Te amo mucho mi hijo, even if I didn't did my best for you, I still always be your abuela you love.." She spoked all of it in an emotional way kaya agad narin nadala si Charles sa emosyon at tumulo rin ang kaniyang luha.

"you're the best abuela I have and I will always love you." he then continued to cry on his abuela's embrace.

"Señora Soledad right now is at risk, base sa sinabi niya kanina ay lagi daw siyang nakaranas nang panghihina, sakit sa dibdib at hindi makahinga nang mabuti at isa lamang ang dahilan nito. May mga plaques na bumabara ngayon sa dibdib nang señora na naging resulta nang pamin-minsan pagkaranas niya ng heart attack at hindi natin alam kung kailan ang araw na atakihin na naman siya ulit, posibleng maging resulta ito nang hindi niyo inaasahan. For now, let her rest for a while, wag niyo siya masiyadong pagudin o makadanas man nang mabigat na emosyon, and one more thing let her eat more helthy foods to gain her blood and energy everytime." Doctor Muñoz explained it to Charles and his parents kaya agad silang tumango.
