"Sweetheart, do you need anything? I already put your things in the car." Sabi ko kay Imelda habang nasa loob siya ng CR.
"Wait, I'll help you with your undies, can you walk darling?" tanong ko ulit habang sinusuotan siya.
"Do you really have to wear undies darling, diba huhubarin mo lang din yan since manganganak ka na?" tanong ko.
"Darling, Sweetheart, relax." Mahinahong sabi ni Imelda sa akin, ako naman di mapakali.
"Ano ka ba Ferdinand, para namang kakapanganak ko lang! Kalma ka nga mahal." She said, ako naman nakatingin lang sa kanya.
"Where are you going mommy?" tanong naman ni Imee sa amin.
"Ferdinand, anona, di pa ba kayo pupunta ng hospital, aba, baka mapano yang asawa mo." Alalang tanong ni mommy.
Right when Imelda steps out of the bathroom, her water broke.
"Ooooo, ihi si mommy?" tanong ni Imee.
"Guess it's time." Mommy, went directly downstairs to call Pedro para paandarin na ang sasakyan and to wait by the stairs para tulungan ako na alalayan pababa si Imelda.
"Wait, I'll get your bistida and dress you up before we go to the hospital." Suggest ko.
"Sama si Imee?" tanong naman ni Imee.
"Yes darling, you ang lola will go together, okay? Pedro will fetch you, okay ba yun?" tanong ko kay Imee habang binibihisan si Imelda.
After I dressed her up again, tumungo na kami sa hospital, as usual, we take the private room and seeing Imelda in pain, makes me want to take it and ilipat sa akin.
It was pass 4 hours, since her doctor came to check, She's now standing, her hand on the hospital bed nakasandal at nakayuko ang upper part ng katawan nito. Hinahagod ko naman likod niya to ease her pain sa lower back niya.
"Ferdinaaaaand, mahaaal!!! Ang sakit!!!" she said while in tears and in pain.
"Oh darling, I'm sorry, Hindi ka naman ganito nung nanganak ka kay Imee ah." Sabi ko nalang.
"Mahaaaaaal, I need a time out. Pwede sub muna?" tanong nito. Gusto ko sana tumawa pero naawa talaga ako.
"Mahal, kung pwede lang talaga, I would take half of your pain and transfer it to me." I said sincerely at her.
Right the she felt her leg cramp.
"Mahal, aray ko, yung paa ko, nagkacramp." Reklamo niya. Di ko po alam paano but I immediately carried her on my own at pinahiga sa kama.
"Mahal ko, ang sakit!" reklamo ko.
"Ferdinand, magtitiis ka or di ko ipapangalan ang anak mo sayo." Banta sa akin.
"Ano pa ba magagawa ko iba kundi magtiis rin."
"Jusko Ferdinand, ano ba itong mga anak mo, ang tagal lumabas tapos paglabas ikaw rin pipiliin!" sigaw niya habang namimilipit sa sakit at pawis na pawis.
"Si Imee pa naman yung lagi lumalapit sa akin mahal." Explain ko. She felt another contraction and held on to my hand really tight.
"Darling, you really are strong, please, let my hand breath." Pakiusap ko sa kanya.
