Chapter 11
"Gossips during work is unhealthy,"sabi ng isang malagom na tinig sa tapat namin. A deep yet soothing voice.
Napaangat kami ni Eriel ng tingin mula sa binabasang chart.
Para akong tinuklaw ng ahas pagkakita ko kung sino ang sumita sa min.
"Exer,"bulong ko.
Nakita kong dumaan din ung recognition sa mga mata nya. Halata ring nagulat ito nung makita ako eh.
"I'm sorry, Doc Fuentes,"hinging paumanhin ni Eriel. Sya pala ung binabanggit nila. Eriel's right. He's one hell of a man. I experienced it first hand.
Nanatili lang ako nakatingin kay Exer. Hindi ko alam ang dapat isipin at gawin. Nakatingin lang din sya sa kin. The recognition and shock I've seen in his eyes were gone. It was replaced by anger and something I can't read.
Siniko ako ni Eriel. Nakuha ko naman agad ung ibig nyang sabihin.
"Sorry, Doc,"sabi ko habang nakatungo. Hindi ko na kayang tumingin nang diretso sa mata nya nang matagal. The memories I have with him are slowly becoming clear, as if it is just happened yesterday. The way he saved me, the way his powerful arms led me away from that party, the way he told me he's buying my virginity, the way he kissed and loved me that night. I can remember his every single kiss and touch.
'The high and mighty Exer Fuentes'
Naalala ko bigla ung sinabi nung lalaking bastos ng party. Shemay. Bakit ba ngayon ko lang naalala un? Fuentes pala ang surname ni Exer.
"Doc, samahan ko na po kayo sa room ng patients nyo?"narinig kong sabi ni Raven sa masiglang tinig.
"No need,"sagot ni Exer dito. "You,"sabi nya.
Sino naman kayang tinuturo nito. Porket sa kanila 'tong hospital, maka-you na sya, akala mo kung sino.
Hindi ako nag-angat ng tingin. Nagkunwari lang akong nagbabasa ng chart nang maramdaman kong siniko ulit ako ni Eriel.
"Ma'am, ikaw ang tinatawag ni Doc,"bulong ni Eriel sa kin.
Wala sa loob na napaangat ulit ako nang tingin. Nakakunot noong nakatingin sya sa kin. "Bakit po, Doc?"
"Follow me,"maawtoridad na sabi nito. Ung tipong haring bawal suwayin ang utos. Pagkatapos, tumalikod na ito papunta sa patient's room.
Ayaw ko pa sanang pumunta dahil kinakabahan ako sa muli naming paghaharap. But I guess, I don't really have a choice.
"Sundan mo na si Doc. Nakakatakot magalit yan,"utos ni Eriel sa kin.
Mabilis akong tumayo at sinundan si Exer. Hindi ko na masyadong pinansan pa ung mga sinabi nung mga kasamahan ko. Masyado akong kinakabahan at naooverwhelm para mapansin pa sila.
Nakasunod lang ako sa kanya habang nakayuko kaya hindi ko napansing huminto pala sya. Nabangga tuloy ako sa malapader nyang likod. He still have the most intoxicating scent I smelled in my whole life. It's like I just want to stay behind him and smell him.
Humarap sya sa kin sabay sabing,"Hindi ka ba marunong tumingin sa dinadaanan mo?"
"Sorry, Doc,"nakatungo ko pa ring sabi. I don't want to look at his eyes, his eyes that penetrates my soul.
Nagulat pa ko nang hawakan nya ako sa siko at iginiya ako papasok sa kwarto. Dahil hindi naman kita mula sa nurse's station ang kwartong ito, hindi ako nag-aalala na makita kami. Halos malapit na rin kasi sa dulo ng ward ito. Walang pasyente na nakaadmit sa kwartong ito.
Isinandal nya ako sa pader. Ang lakas ng tibok ng puso ko. Hindi ko alam kung dahil sa kaba o sa iba pang dahilang hindi ko mapangalanan.
>>>Exer's POV
"Why did you leave that morning? I left you a note telling you to wait for me,"agad kong tanong pagkapasok namin sa bakanteng kwartong un. I'm hoping I could see her but I don't expect that she'd be working for our hospital. Shock, anger and longing were the emotions I felt when our eyes met again. Shock, because of the unexpected event. Anger, because of what she'd done. Longing? I don't exactly know why.
"Kailangan ba?"tanong nya habang nakatungo.
"You gave yourself to me and yet you're asking me if it is necessary to wait for me?"manghang tanong ko. Hindi ko alam kung dapat ko ba syang yugyugin o ano. She's talking as if it's a natural thing she does.
Nag-angat sya ng ulo at sinalubong ako ng tingin pero muli uling syang tumungo.
"I'm a bitc--"
"I told you that don't use that word,"
"Fine. I'm a prostitute that night and I sold my virginity to you. What do you expect me to do? May nakilala ka bang prosti na pagkatapos magpagamit, aantayin ung gumamit sa kanya na dumating? Ipakilala mo nga ako at mabati ko,"sarcastic nyang sabi na nakatingin sa kin.
"Did you actually feel that I treated you like a prostitute that night? Binastos ba kita?"naiinis na sabi ko. I don't understand why she's acting this way.
"No,"bulong nya. "You're too gentle that night. I didn't feel I sold myself to you. But that same night is also the night when I stooped that low just for the sake of money." Nag-angat uli sya ng tingin. This time, para syang nakikiusap,"Pwede bang kalimutan na lang natin un? Pwede bang umakto na lang tayong hindi magkakilala?"
Napabuntong hininga ako. Nabawasan ung galit ko dahil sa tinig at mata nyang nakikiusap. Hinawi ko ang ilang hiblang naligaw sa mukha nya mula sa pagkakaipit.
I don't know what say and do. Part of me is telling me to disagree with her. But there is also something that's telling me, she's right. Ang gabing un ay nagpapaalala sa ginawa nya.
"Fine,"pagpayag ko.
"Kakalimutan mo na ang nangyari?"
"I'll forget what you've done that night but I won't act that I don't know you,"sabi ko. I don't want to forget her or act as if I don't know her because I can't. That night is special for me, something I don't understand why it is special. I've gone to bed with other women but they failed to make me feel this way.
Nag-isip sya at sabing,"Sige. But please, treat me as your staff,"
Lumayo ako sa kanya nang konti, enough lang para magkaroon sya ng personal space.
"I'll think about it. But first, let us introduce ourselves properly,"sabi ko at inilahad ang kamay. "I'm Exer Kenshin Fuentes,"

>>>Cleo's POV
"I'm Exer Kenshin Fuentes,"
Nag-aatubiling tinanggap ko ang kamay nya. Hindi ko akalin na magkakaroon kami ng ganitong pag-uusap. In fact, I don't expect I could meet him again. But I guess, the saying "expect the unexpected" is not a piece of crap.Kanina nang higitin nya ko sa pader, alam ko nang galit sya dahil hindi ko sya hinintay nang umagang un.
Ang awkward lang ng itsura namin. Dito pa talaga kami sa bakanteng silid nagpapakilala sa isa't isa.
Tinanggap ko ung kamay nya sabay sabing,"Cleo Bautista,"
Alam kong tama ang desisyon kong kalimutan ko ung nangyayaring pabebenta ko ng sarili ko kahit pa espesyal ung gabing iyon. I want to have a clean start with him especially now we're working on the same hospital. Destiny played a trick when it made us meet again and I don't know its reason for doing so.
