The more you HATE, the more you LOVE

COACH

14.

I woke up in a white room, with machines beeping on my side. 'What in the fucking world happened' I touch my head, it was still hurting.

'Thank you Doc.' My world became clear when our couch, Riki went inside 'You're awake.' He sat beside my bed 'are you feeling okay na?' He looked at me 'ah.. yes..' I looked around feeling awkward 'what happened to your feet?'

I looked at my feet and it was swelling so bad! Oh no, patay ako kay Mommy nito! 'an accident happened when me and Britney were practicing coach..' I sat down.

'Is it really an accident or Britney did it on purpose?' should I tell the truth or should i just continue my lie? 'It was just an accident coach'

Pag nag-sabi ako ng totoo baka mas lumalala ang galit sakin ni Britney who knows? Maybe she'll do something more horrible to me! Ayoko magkaroon ng kaaway and gulo.

'I checked the cctv awhile ago, it looks like she did that intentionally.' He put his hand on his chin raising his brows 'it's nothing coach, I mean it's normal' my body was shivering because of his titig, should I dukot dukot your eyeballs?

'Okay then, if that what you say so' he stood up 'where are you going?' He looks at me, great! Why would I ask kasi! 'Im gonna buy you food, it's already 7pm' 7pm? what?! HOW LONG DID I BECAME UNCONSCIOUS?!

'What?! It's already night?!' I mean it's late na! My mom would roast me! 'yeah, I already told your mom so you don't have to worry, she's gonna fetch you tomorrow' ah yeah, my mom is in batangas pala today.

'Oh..okay thank you!'

after that he went out, i reach my bag and put my phone out and i was shock to see alot of message from my friends and my mom has too!

mader <33
: darling are you okay? Im gonna fetch you tomorrow okay? I love you! I told your coach to look after you!

chloe <33
: hoy inday! Anong nangyari sayo?! Sabi samin binunggo ka daw? Sino yun hambog na yon ha?! Aabangan ko sa kanto yon!

Arianna <33
: hoy bebe gurl! Kamusta nakakalakad ka pa ba? Huhu! Hindi naman yan papaputol right?!

Louise <33
: hoy tanga may paa ka pa ba? Orderan na ba kita? Don't worry sagot ko na bayad!

Torie <33
: omygosh baby! Are you okay? Are you in the hospital? should i pa-deliver food there? I'm gonna pay for your bills! Gosh! Why are you so careless?? Im gonna ask my secretary to go there ha?

My friends are so OA! But i love them! I'm super lucky to have them! But sometimes they are like in other world! They tend to overthink! Malala! Promise!

When I replied to all of them, coach went back with foods on his hand 'someone is here to see you' i looked at the door and i saw steph!

'Hey!' She run towards me and hugged me tight 'nakakakaba ka!' She was crying! 'Omyghad steph! Don't cry! Im fine!' I looked at our coach who's busy putting out some trays

'Lagot talaga sakin 'yong Britney na yon!' pinunasan nya yung luha nya 'no one's at fault Steph, staka im still alive pa naman!' I held her hand 'ah basta! Ako bahala sa malanding yon!'

'Stephania! Your words!' Our coach glared at her 'sorry lods' she showed a peace sign. 'Musta yung paa mo? Magang maga bhe..' she looked at it 'it will heal siguro after some days' i tried to move it pero kumirot lang.

'Pano yung dance school?'

'She's exempted.' Si Coach ang sumagot, inabutan nya ako ng food and he also give steph some too! 'Eat, you need to regain your energy.' I quickly followed that and start to chew the food. It was good san nya 'toh binili?

'Coach san mo nabili yung pagkain? Sarap ah! Makabili nga din don!' Steph said while eating, lumalabas pa ang food sa bibig nya kaya napailing nalang ako.

'I cooked that.'

He what? He cooked it?! Kaya ba sya medyo natagalan?! Sanaol nag effort! I mean he should have just order! Grabe... he's so mabait naman.

'Sabi mo you'll just buy?' I questioned him. 'Hussle pag bumili e, staka sayang yung mga gamit ko sa bahay di ko nagagamit' he ate a spoonful bago tumayo and bigyan ako ng tubig.

'Sanaol!' Steph was smiling so wide! Giving me a teasing smirk, this girl is such a issue! 'Sanaol nilulutuan' she was still smiling! parang tanga...

'Why? May problema ba doon Steph?' Coach raise his brows, ha! Matakot ka bhe! 'Wala naman po sir! Parang mag-jo-'

'Di ka pa ba uuwi steph?' I cut her sentence, why is she making this so awkward?! 'Ah oo nga pala! Haha! Sorry napasarap ng kain e' she stood up.

when she left all I feel is awkwardness, parang kaming tanga na kapag nagkaka eye contact bigla kaming titingin kung saan. Why wouldn't he go home?

'Sabi pala ng doctor, you need to stay here kahit 1-2 days pa. Para daw mas ma-monitor nila yung paa mo.' He said.

'okay... thank you, uhm you will not go home yet?' I ask, hoping he would say yes! Ang awkward, di ko kaya 'to!

'Your mother said if I can look after you for awhile, wala naman pasok tomorrow dahil sunday, so I volunteered to look after you' No. he did not!

'Omygosh! Nakakahiya naman! You don't need too! Kaya ko naman ang sarili ko coach! I don't like to be a pabigat to you, you can go home na' like hindi naman kasi namin sya kaano-ano, tho I'm thankful because he stayed with me!

'It's okay, as your coach I need to make sure that all of you is safe, sa dance studio ko pa nangyare. So I'm at fault too' he said and layed at the coach, he must be tired.

'Oh.. okay, if you insist. Thank you then.. you can rest na! I'll stay quiet.' I layed down too and let him sleep, it must be too exhausted for him. Like, he will stay here with me! he also carried me all the way here and even exerted effort to cook for me- no for our food.

'Maggie are you asleep?' I heard him talk 'uhm, no. You? Why are you not sleeping?' I ask 'my mind is too preoccupied.' he sounds so tired 'why?' I turned to my side to see him, he has a pillow infront of his face.

'I'm so worried about you.' Uhm... what? 'I-i mean, it was the first time I na magdala ako ng tao dito sa ospital, studyante ko pa' oh, yeah..

'It's okay coach! I'm fine! I will be.' I gave him a smile kahit di nya naman makikita 'yon

I waited for him to reply, pero di sya nag-reply maybe he already fell asleep. I looked him examining his face, his pogi! Hehe may jowa n kaya si Coach?

I was just thinking to many things when sleepiness called me, I closed my eyes and prayed.

Goodnight, coach.
