"Dr.Cruise?" I knocked on Doctora's door, but someone quickly stopped me before I could even twist the doorknob. "Yes?" I asked the nurse, who had probably noticed me knocking someone up. Kanina pa ako katok nang katok sa kwarto ng Doctora pero magpasa-hanggang ngayon ay wala pa ring sumasagot. Days passed, and I became increasingly concerned about her.
"Wala po siya diyan sa kwarto niya, Ma'am," the Nurse told me.
"Do you know where she is?" I questioned again, turning to face her.
"May importanteng meeting siya ngayon sa mga co-founder ng Finding the Cure program, Ma'am. She's in private room right now," sagot niya sa tanong ko at nagpasalamat ako bago siya umalis. I had no idea she was a part of the program, and it's possible that's why she's been missing in action until now. Perhaps I was overreacting.
"Misis! Misis!" Mabilis kong nilingon si Ali na tumatakbo papunta sa akin habang hindi matanggal ang malawak na ngiti nito. Mag-isa lang ito at hindi ko alam kung paano niya ako nahanap sa lugar na kinatatayuan ko ngayon. This room of Dr.Cruise is also a private place where only a few individuals have access, as the nurse told me, and I only received entry because they previously knew me.
"What?" tanong ko rito at hinila siya pababa ng floor. Kami lang ang naiiba sa mga taong nakakasalamuha namin dahil halos lahat ay nakasuot ng medical uniform. They're all busy on something so they didn't noticed that Ali is trespassing their territory. They were all preoccupied with something else and didn't see Ali trespassing on their turf. They're probably busy making vaccines because there are over a hundred thousand people here right now, and they haven't yet accounted for all the likely survivors.
"Hindi ka maniniwala sa sasabihin ko, Misis!" Ali exclaimed beside me again. He's always bouncy, and I'm curious as to what would quiet him down for a moment. When we got to the nursery corridor, I came to a halt and turned to face him.
"What is it?" tanong ko sa kanya nang makitang nag-iintay lang pala ito nang hudyat sa akin. But he just pressed his lips together and squinted his eyes at me.
"Hindi ka naman interesado sa sasabihin ko, eh! At sabi ko sa 'yo diba na Mister ang itawag mo sa 'kin?" reklamo niya na hindi ko na pinansin at sumandal na lang sa pader sa likuran ko.
"What is it, Mister?" I insist to avoid some fight on him again. Masyado akong pagod para patulan pa ang mga reklamo ng isip batang kasama ko.
"May sakit ka ba, Misis?" he suddenly asked and put his back hand on my forehead. Balak ko sana siyang sagutin nang bigla kong mapansin ang babaeng nurse na mabilis na dumaan sa likuran niya papunta sa pintuan ng entrance ng kwarto ng mga survivor. Agad akong napaayos ng pagkakatayo nang makitang si Dr.Cruise ang hinahabol niya kaya mabilis ko siyang sinundan.
"Doctora!" said the nurse as she pursued Dr. Cruise. It doesn't bother the baby in the nursery because it's soundproof, preventing her voice from passing through.
"Misis saan ka pupunta?" Ali called me. Nakalimutan kong kasama ko pala siya kaya nang maabutan niya ako ay mabilis ko siyang hinila at sabay naming sinundan ang nurse at si Dr.Cruise na mukhang nagmamadaling makaalis. Nang makalabas na kami sa pasilyo ng mga kwarto ng mga kasamahan namin ay bigla na lang nawala sa pananaw namin ang sinusundan namin.
"Nasan na 'yun?" rinig kong tanong ni Ali sa tabi ko. Pati siya ay hinahanap na rin si Doctora. Why Dr.Cruise seemed on hurry?
