It could be us // Sandro Marcos (2)

CHAPTER 49

SANDRO's POV.

Isang araw na ang nakalipas pero hindi parin nagigising ang asawa ko. Nag ka emergency pa kanina kasi biglang tumigil ang pag tibok ng puso niya. May mga pasa at sugat siya sa bawat parte ng katawan niya after the car crash accident.

"Babe, I'll put you a lip balm ha..." her lips are so dry dahil sa tube na nakalagay sa kanyang bibig. The doctor said kausapin ko siya kahit tulog dahil nakikinig lang siya sa mga nangyayari. "Please wake up, babe. Di ko kayang makita ka na ganito. I'll give up everything just to be with you. I love you so much. Kahit sermonan mo pa ako 24/7, willing akong makining. Just wake up."

*knock. knock.knock*

It was Simon and Honey. They also bought us fruits and flowers.

"Sis..." Honey looks so worried and started to cry after she saw my wife. Nilapitan niya agad yung misis ko at dun na siya umiyak. We are all in pain right now. Simon stood next to me and patted my back. My eyes are still swollen from crying.

"I'm sorry for the lost of your little angel, kuya." I just nod. We're going to give my child a proper burial. Our angel... marami akong plano na dapat kasama yung anak namin, I would give the world to my child. Sad na hindi man lang niya yun naranasan.

"Mia??" napalingon agad ako kai Honey. She looks so shock while looking at my wife's hand. "Gumalaw yung kamay ni Mia!" nataranta kami pareho at nilapitan siya. "Sis?! Sis, andito lang kami. Please kung naririnig mo kami, igalaw mo ang kamay mo." I looked at my wife's hand and saw her index finger move. Oh Jesus Christ! She move!

"Mia??? Babe??? Andito lang ako..." I was shaking while holding her hand. "babe please...." As I look at her face, we are all shock when she slowly open her eyes. "Gising na si Mia! Sy, call the doctor please..." pinindot lang niya yung button then after a minute the doctor came in. Tinignan niya si Mia and check her vitals. Pinalabas na muna kami para di maging sagabal sa loob. We are waiting for the results. The doctor came out and so as the nurses.

"She's stable now, Sir." the doctor said. Lahat kami natuwa sa balita niya pumasok na rin kami to see my wife. Tinanggal narin pala nila ang tube sa bibig niya.

"Babe..." lumapit naman ako sakanya at niyakap siya agad. She's back now. Hinawi ko ang ilang strands ng buhok nya sa mukha para mahalikan siya kahit sa pisnge man lang. She just stare blankly at me and that made me nervous dahil baka nagka amnesia siya or what. Fuck! Don't think negative!

"B-babe..." her expression suddenly change as she called me. What a relief! I thought nakalimotan niya ako.

"Thank God you're safe."

"W-water..." she almost said in whisper.  Nilagyan agad ni Honey ng tubig yung baso saka straw. Inalalayan ko lang siya para makainom ng tubig. Halos maubos niya ang tubig sa baso sa sobrang uhaw. "G-gusto ko u-umupo.." Simon adjusted the bed para makaupo si Mia.

"How are you feeling, babe??" I ask as I help her to balance herself.

"I-I'm okay... the baby... h-how's our b-baby??" she said while holding her tummy. I need to change the topic kasi di pa ako handa sabihin sa kanya na ganito ang kalagayan niya.

"You want anything??? Are you hungry??"

"No.. I-I'm fine... N-nauhaw lang talaga ako a-after a l-long journey." she said. Napaisip agad ako sa sinabi niya. What journey?? "How's our baby??"

"Sis, iiwan muna namin kayo. Bibili lang kami ng pagkain ha.." Honey said to excuse and hinatak na si Simon papalabas. Kinakabahan ako sa sasabihin ko dahil diko alam kung makakya ba niyang tanggapin ito. Umupo ako sa chair malapit sa tabi niya.

"What journey are you talking about, babe??" she smiled so sweetly. I miss that smile, kahit one day lang di ko yan nakita para na akong ilang taon nahiwalay sakanya.

"I had a dream... Nag lalakad ako sa isang paraiso..." medyo hindi pa clear ang kanyang boses but she's trying her best to talk. "there's this kid held my hands and stopped me from walking into the light..." I tried so hard to stop myself from crying in front of her. That kid, could it be our little angel?? "I saw the kid smile and said... It was not my time yet. Then I woke up." I can't hold my tears anymore. "Why are you crying babe?? Did someone hurt you??" she held my face and kinuha ko yun para halikan. I thought the day she got shot was the last day I will hold her hands. Time is gold. You will never predict what will happen next. "How's our baby, babe??"

I looked at her and start crying. My shoulders are shaking and burst out crying. "Forgive me babe. I'm sorry... Sorry..." I will never get tired saying sorry to her. "Sorry.."

"What are you sorry for?? Is our baby okay??" she innocently asked.

"Sorry... sorry the baby didn't make it..." I can't even look at her eyes. Yumuko nalang ako at nag iiyak na.

"W-what?? Please don't say that..." inangat ko agad ang ulo ko then I saw her starting to cry. I saw pain in her eyes after hearing those words. "No... no... huhuhu... wag mung sabihin yan... no.." tumayo ako at agad niyakap siya. Her shout echoed the room and you can hear her agony while crying. "Our baby.... no....no... huhuhuhu..." niyakap ko lang siya while both of us are crying. I felt my wife's pain. Hindi madali saamin ito pareho. "I'm sorry anak... sorry.... huhuhu..." she's still crying while saying sorry. I was the one to be blame here. Humiwalay muna ako sakanya bago hinawakan ang makabilang pisnge niya.

"It's not your fault, babe. Shhh... don't say that.." her face is covered with her tears and she's so red.

"No... It was my fault... kung hindi ko inagaw yung manobela, hindi kami mababangga..." nag hahabol na siya ng hininga while confessing. "Kung hindi ko sinagot yung tawag at lumabas, hindi niya ako madadala... It was my fault... We lost our baby because of me...." she cried again and again. That explains kung bakit siya lumabas sa venue that time. All along it was planned ni Kian na palabasin si Mia. FUCK YOU KIAN! I WILL FUCKING KILL YOU!

"No.. no.. It wasn't your fault, babe. Shhh... here, drink some water. Don't ever think that it was your fault. I'll make sure Kian will be rot in jail."

"Our baby... our angel..." she's still crying while calling our angel. She's in pain right now at that pain will remain forever. May our angel be happy in God's hands. He/she will be forever in our hearts.
