Fighting it with you✨ [MED SERIES # 4] COMPLETED

Chapter 27

First day ng waiting game. Same feeling nung naghihintay ako ng result ng boards nung pre-med. Yung kaba, yung takot at yung pangamba na baka hindi sapat yung effort na binigay ko para makapasa. But he's here with me, reminding me that I'll pass, that he believes in me. His words brings  solace and assurance that I will pass, that we will pass.

"Baby, let's eat." He called me when he's done preparing our food. Hindi kami umuwi sa mga bahay namin. Ayoko ring makita sila mommy, baka lalo lang akong atakihin ng anxiety. I immediately walked towards his direction and hugged him. He turned around and looked at me. He smiles like everything will be alright-- the boards and our bigger problem.

"You don't need to worry about it. I saw how focused and how hard you studied. Papasa ka, baby. Papasa tayo." He said then he kissed my forehead. Niyakap ko lang sya ng mahigpit.

"If not, just hug me." I murmured.

"I bet my life on it. You'll pass Doktora, Celine Amira Dela Merced-Gomez." He said smiling.

"What makes you think I'll use your surname. I just retain mine." I said teasing him.

"Okay. It's your choice, baby. You're the one who went to med school anyway." He said genuinely.

"Just kidding. I'll hypen your name. What should we do today?" I asked. Umupo na kami sa bar stool parehas. He served me the food he prepared.

"I don't know. I just want to be with you. Should we watch the latest season of Grey's?" Malambing na tanong nya.

"Sure." I uttered then started eating. He really knows how to cook now. Nung unang taon namin halos sunog yung mga niluluto nya, but everyday he tries to be better, for me and for us.

Maghapon na nanuod lang kami ng Grey's. In between, sinasabi nya yung mga plano nya. Mga planong hindi 'ko sigurado if matutupad pa namin. Sobrang excited nyang tumira talaga kami ng magkasama, thou ginawa naman na namin dati, but he keeps telling me iba daw yun kasi nung medschool at ngayon, hindi pa naman kami kasal. Kaya 'pag nakakaiyak yung scene sa pinapanuod namin dun ko sinasadyang ilabas yung luha ko. Ayokong makita nyang baka hindi matupad yung mga plano nya.

Sa second day, nagpunta lang kami sa Katipunan. I asked him na magbar kaming dalawa lang. Kasi matagal ko ng sinasabi sa kanya na gusto kong gawin yun na dalawa lang kami. We partied like we don't have the biggest problem. We were genuinely happy. We kept on laughing and dancing in between drinking. Umuwi kami ng condo, 1 am na ata.

"Let's shower." I said nung natapos kong maalis yung makeup. Nauna akong pumaosk at sumunod naman sya.

"You keep staring, you're scaring me, baby." He said, nung sinasabon ko yung katawan nya.

"I just feel so blessed, I have you. Thank you, for everything. For loving me and for being my ride or die." I said a little teary.

"No, I'm more than blessed you let me love you. Thank you for taking the chance and loving me despite all." He said smiling. I just hugged him.

On the third day, sobra na yung kaba ko. Kahit late na kaming natulog kagabi, nagising ako ng maaga. Mom kept on calling kahit 8 am pa lang. Pinapauwi na nya ako dahil tapos naman na daw yung boards ano pa daw ba ginagawa ko. Even Gino called. But instead of dwelling on possibilities, I cooked our breakfast. I woke him up around 9 am. He's even groaning nung tinatapik ko yung balikat nya.

"Baby, wake up. I already cooked. Dali na, gutom na ako." I said. But he just pulled me which made me land above him.

"Morning, doktora." He uttered while he's busy kissing my neck.
