Rewriting it with you ✨ [MED SERIES # 5] COMPLETED

Chapter 37

The whole three weeks of our stay in Tagaytay, we rarely talked. We only did once or twice, and it's about the baby. We slept in different rooms. He gave me space and he had his. I'm not sure if nakapagpahinga ako, most days in between those weeks I called my friends and cried.

"Hi!" I said to Christian when he arrived home to our house in Alabang. Napilit ko syang dito na mag-stay. I can no longer stand being silent. Feeling ko mute na ako pagka-uwi nya, kaya minadali ko.

"Tss. Iyakin." He uttered when he hugged me. I hugged him back and cried, too.

Nagpunta kami sa third floor, sa guest room na tinutulugan ko 'pag hindi kami okay ni Paulo. We still sleep in the same room now that we're home, pero sa couch na talaga sya. Hindi ko naman na sya naabutan, 'pag kagising ko kanina, maaga daw syang umalis tapos late naman daw sya umuwi kagabi.

"So, ano? Napasuko mo na?" He asked while he's unpacking his luggage. Umupo lang ako sa kama at sumandal.

"Siguro. You can't even feel his presence here." I murmured.

"E bakit parang malungkot ka pa rin naman. You got what you wanted." He commented. I looked at him with tears in my eyes.

"Can you accompany me today? Or inaatok ka na? Maaga pa dito, 'wag ka muna matulog para walang jet lag." I asked kindly. He just nodded. Naligo lang naman ako. I booked an ultrasound at SGH.

Nagpahatid lang naman kami sa driver. Nagsabi akong 'wag na kaming hintayin kasi didiretso kami sa mall para bumili ng mga gamit ng bata.

"Ang luwang talaga dito. I thought before you we're just saying maluwag kaya toxic, but this hospital is huge, gagapang ka sa duty dito." He commented when we were waiting for my turn.

"It's a boy, ma'am." I was told. Tinitignan ko lang yung monitor habang hawak ni Christian yung mga kamay ko. I also did a 3D scan. Kamukha ni Paulo.

"Lakas ng dugo ng ex mo a. Kamukha nya." Christian said when we were in the elevator. Paglabas namin nakasalubong namin si ate Yna.

"Kath!" She shouted. Napatingin ako, nagbobook ako ng grab sana namin. I smiled upon seeing her. Lumapit naman sya.

"What made you go here?" She asked with a genuine smile.

"Nagpa-ultrasound ako ate." I replied. She just nodded.

"Nasa OB on-call room si Paulo, andun si Trish at Gab, gusto mo pumunta?" Nakangiting sabi nya.

"Hindi na ate. May lakad pa kasi kami." I answered. Doon pa lang sya tumingin kay Christian. Ang selective ng mga mata nila minsan.

"This is Christian, my best friend." I murmured, she just nodded and offered her hand.

"Yna, best friend ni Pau." She said. We bid our goodbye's nung nagchat na yung driver na nasa baba na sya.

"Saan tayo?" Tanong ni Christian nung nasa kotse na kami.

"Mall. Let's buy my baby's things." Nakangiting sabi ko.

"Shouldn't you be doing this with him? Sya yung tatay, baka maoffend sya." Seryosong sabi nya.

"Well, he's not with me. So do the honors." Mahinang sabi ko.

"Text or call him." He suggested.

"I still don't have his number." I casually said. He looked at me with a shocked face.
