Frustration of Ada's parents

ESHA'S POV

Hey hey! So, about earlier regarding the conversation with Adallina; I was shocked, tsk. I was damn shocked dahil sa pag-uugaling pinakita niya sa akin like what? She's was eagerly to kill me para lang hindi masangkot sa gulo si Kieran and for a second, I was like what? Well, i think I got something better for her more than troubles I'm going to cause to the both of them.

"Weakness, weakness, hmm. I know who was it, I know who is it and I'm going to end it!" I giggles as I imagined Ada's face. "Malapit lapit na rin naman, hintay ka na lang diyan, Ada, hmm."

--------------------------------------------

ADA'S POV

Iritado akong umuwi nang bahay dahil sa mga katarantaduhan ni ate Esha kanina. Pagkapasok ko sa bahay, I saw Mom there and crying silently kaya pumunta ako sa gawi niya at kinausap siya. No'ng una, ayaw niya akong kibuin tapos ayaw niyang sabihin ang mga bagay na gumugulo sa isipan niya, hay nako.

"Mom..."

"Please, Ada. Ayokong idamay kayo sa mga problema namin ng Dad mo."

I bowed my head. "Are you sure? Alam ko na napapagod na kayo kakahingi at kakabantay sa updates tungkol sa company issue, but please. Learn to rest, Mom." I hold her hand and she smiled at me. "Well, bukod pa roon, may gusto sana po akong sabihin sa inyo e."

"Oh yeah? What is it, Ada?" She asked.

"Uhm, kanina po kasi sinabihan na kami ng professor namin na mag pagt-training-an po kaming clinic, closely to call as INTERNSHIP ganoon. Then kami raw po ang mamimili ng clinic and I picked one."

"Ano naman 'yon? Should I contact my friends for you para hindi ka mahirapan doon? Ipapasa lang naman nila iyong-----" I cut her words off.

"Mom, I don't want to be unfair, okay? Kinausap kita kasi ang napili kong clinic ay nasa Cavite at medyo malayo rito sa atin. Gusto ko po sabihin sa inyo kung pwedeng doon po ako mag-renta ng apartment?" I asked her with a smile. "If you disagree with it, pwede naman po akong sumama kay Kie----"

"Sure ka bang doon talaga ang gusto mo? Wala akong kakilala roon masyado e and besides, hindi rin ako pamilyar doon. Sure ka ba? Malayo 'yon, Ada." She stated so I looked away. "Bakit ba gusto mo roon? Any reasons?"

"Magagaling kasi roon, Mom. Actually, lahat naman ng mga doctor ay magaling pero may mga bagay talaga na sa clinic or sa medical center ko lang na 'yon makikita o nakita." I smiled bitterly. "Kung wala po pala kayong kakilala roon, okay lang po. Maghahanap na lang ako siguro." Tumayo ako at umalis na pero tinawag niya ulit ako.

"Ada... Contact Daisy Gutierrez, she's my friend and may apartment for rent siya na malapit sa clinic or sa center na 'yan. Doon ka na lang muna makituloy."

I looked at her, being confused. "P-pero ang sabi niyo po---"

"I heard your reasons, Ada. You always listened to our reasons kaya kung saan mas nakikita mong marami kang matutunan, doon ka. I'll support you in any way I can." She smiled at me and made a peace sign pose.

"Thank you, Mom. You look cute on that pose, take a picture of that and send it to me okay? I love you."

"Yeah, I love you too, anak."

Umakyat ako sa kuwarto na halos ako na yata iyong babaeng mas malakas pa ang tili ng boses ko sa mga singers na bumibirit sa entablado. For the very first time, I never heard Mom saying I love you in front of me; Well, ilang taon na ang nakakalipas pero ngayon ko lang ito narinig sa kaniya and I was fluttered for a minute, dang!

I contacted one of the chief of De La Salle Medical Center and sent my training resume good for two or three months training. When I emailed it to them, few hours I got a message and they accepted it; Next week na raw ako pumunta para mapaghandaan ko pa nang ilang araw at habang nagsasaya ako roon, Kieran called me so I answered it.

"Yes, hello?" Bungad ko sa kabilang linya.

"Hey, Ada! Nakapag-send ka na ba ng training resume mo?" He asked, I wanted it to say na pasado ako pero kailangan bitinin ko siya beh. "Ada, you okay over there?"

"Y-yeah, I-I'm okay." I stuttered, I can't help but to smile, dang!

"Remember what I said earlier? About the clinic I picked?"

"Hmm, yeah. What about it? Natanggap ka ba?"

He let out a heavy sigh, so I began worrying. "Well, uhm..."

"What is it? They rejected you? What? Tell me, Kie."

"I am... I'm... I'm accepted, Ada! They accepted me~~~~" He sang as if he was a lyricist of some song I've never heard, gosh. "Accepted ako, okay? Huwag kang mag-alala riyan ha? Ikaw ba?"

"A-ako? I sent them my training resume." I uttered and I started chuckling silently. Babawi ako sa pangb-bitin niya. 

"Then? Did you receive any answers on their emails?" He asked again but I didn't respond, tawa ako nang tawa. "Ada, ano ba! I'm asking you, so freaking answer me!"

"I-I receive their email on me few minutes earlier and I'm kinda..."

"Kinda what?"

"Kinda... Kinda happy?! Well, I'm accepted too wohooo~~~" I enthusiastically stated and so he does too. "Next week na ako mags-start."

"Ako rin."

-----------------------------------------------------------

Well, good morning everyone! I got a great great sleep last night. Ang pagkakaalam ko ang lessons namin for today is about SURGERIES and I like it. Bumaba ako para mag-almusal and I heard Mom throwing every things she will hold and I don't know what's her reason. I go on her direction yet she didn't tell me anything, I saw kuya Livius signing that I shouldn't be there but I ignored him.

"Mom, what happened?" I asked her.

"Y-your d-dad, A-Ada." She stuttered. "Y-your d-dad!" And now, she began crying.

"Oh, okay? W-what about Dad? What happened?"

"H-he's in the hospital n-now, he got shot while trying to c-caught up t-the bank h-holder w-who stole the c-company's m-money." Nangangaralkal niyang sambit kaya nanghina ang mga tuhod ko. "He's u-undergoing on a s-surgery! Wala akong--- Oh my gosh!"

"Saang hospital, Mom?" 

"De La Salle Medical Center, Ada." My eyes widened as I heard it. "A-Ada, p-please. S-save him for me---for us, p-please."

"I-I... I will, Mom. I'll contact Kieran about this." I sighed heavily.

Next chapter ahead. Enjoy reading!
