HARIE POV;
ALMOST 2 months na kami dito sa canada. Uuwi din ako doon sa pilipinas next week to study law. Mahaba din ang pag-aaralan ko bago maging abogado.
“Ewww what that's Smell?” maarteng tugon pa ni Kourtney kaya napatingin kami lahat sakanyan.
“What smell?” I asked.
“I think that one,” saad nya.
Saka tinuro ang garlic fried rice, agad naman yun chineck ni yaya atsaka inamoy. Nilapit nya din kay mom at inamoy.
“Kourtney, hindi naman mabaho ah,” saad ni mom.
“Yucks ang baho kaya, anong klaseng ilong meron kayo... Alisin nyo nalang please, it's smell so disgusting”
Kunot noong tumingin lang ako kay Kourtney ng utusan ni mom si yaya na alisin yun. Nilapag ko ang spoon and table knife ko at nagpunas ng bibig.
“Alam mo Kourtney, kahapon kapa.” I said.
“Bakit ano ginawa sayo ni Kourtney?” kuya Aiden asked me.
“Eh kasi yung dala ni mommy na steak, ang pangit daw ng lasa.. Parang masusuka pa nga yata sya eh.”
“What's happening to you Kourtney?” mom asked her.
“Wala po,”
“Anong wala?” I said.
“Kuya pwede ba, I said that one is smell really bad, how come you didn't even smell it that way?”iritang sabi ni Kourtney.
“It's because your the only one who smell it bad, but to us there's nothing wrong”
“There's wrong.. Your nose barado yata yang ilong— akwackkkk🤮”
Biglang napatakbo si Kourtney sa sink ng kusina namin at sumuka. Nagaalalang nagsitayuan naman kami, lalo na si mom na lumapit pa kay Kourtney at hinagod ang likod nito. Nag hilamos si Kourtney at tumingin samin.
“Apo are you okay?” lolo asked.
“I'm okay lo, don't worry about me”
“Did you eat something?” lola asked her again
“I-I can't remember what I ate last.. But I don't think it's because of what I ate”
“Are you sure your okay?” mom asked her saka tinulungan maupo ulit si Kourtney.
“Opo mom,”
“NO WAY!!” Nagulat kami ng biglang sumigaw si kuya Zion at napatakip pa ng bibig.
“What is it Zion?” kuya Clarence asked.
“No way, tell me I'm wrong Kourtney” he said while pointing at her.
“Tell you that your wrong? Saan?” our sister said.
“What if...”
“Ano ba Zion, may balak kabang sabihin? Ang pabitin mo rin eh,” halatang kinakabahang saad ni Kuya Clarence.
“K-Kourtney, what i-if your p-pregnant?”
My jaw dropped when I hear it. No way, no fvcking way! Ano'to? Nauna pa sya sakin? Fvck! There's no way!
“Stop joking Zion,” kuya Aiden said.
“No, actually he has a point,” tugon naman ni ate Blythe asawa ni kuya Aiden.“When I was pregnant to Aly, my smelling way has changed, nasusuka din ako noon”
“B-Buntis? A-Ako?” gulat naman na tanong ni Kourtney.
So she doesn't know about her pregnancy? Napayuko nalang ako. What if Kuya Zion's doubt was truth, what if she's really pregnant.
“HAHAHHHAHAHAHA”
Naiangat ko ang ulo ko ng marinig ko si Kourtney na tumawa. She's laughing like there's nothing to be afraid of. I'm mean having a baby wasn't a mistake or else.. I-It was too sudden to our sister.
“Why are you laughing?” Tanong ni kuya Zion.
“you guys are overreacting, I'm not pregnant okay?”
“How could you say that? Are you even have a test to check if you're pregnant or not?”
“Um.. No,”
“See? So in that case there's a possibility that you're pregnant”
“Enough you guys,” saway samin ni mom.
“But mom....”
“Enough,” mom said again and turned to Kourtney. “Tomorrow I will call doc Mica to check up on you”
“Mom, I said no—”
Naputol na naman sasabihin ni Kourtney na masuka naman ito. Agad syang nagtungo sa may sink ng kusina at sumuka na naman. Nagtungo ulit sya sa tabi ni aye Blythe ng namunutla.
“Kourtney, you sure you okay?” I asked.
“Ye—”
Napatakbo ako palapit kay Kourtney ng matumba ito. Agad kosyang binuhat at nagtungo sa may kotse ko. Sumabay din si mom sa backseat saka nako nag drive papuntang hospital dito sa canada. Nang makarating na kami sa hospital ay agad syang hiniga sa stretcher at dinala sa may isang bakanteng cubicle. Agad na may doctor na nagtungo sa pwesto namin at chincek si Kourtney.
Pinaghintay muna kami sa labas ng kurtina. Naihilamos ko ang dalawang kamay ko sa muka ko. What is happening to her? Well, if she's pregnant wala akong magagawa it's a blessing to her. Yeah it is, she's just 23 and if she really pregnant then she will be a young mother.
Hold on... If ever she's pregnant, who would be the father of her baby?
“You asking who's the father of her cbild if ever she's pregnant?” saad ng boses sa tenga ko.
Lumingon ako doon at nakita ko si ate Aira. Inakbayan nyako. Habang nakatingin sakin.
“Yeah,”
“Then let's just wait for the doctor to tell us what happened to her,” she said.
Naupo muna ako sa waiting area habang hinihintay namin ba lumabas si Doc. After a while lumabas na si Doc kaya naoatayo kami ni mom. Ako si ate Aira tapos si mom lang ang nandito.
“Doc, how's my daughter?” tanong agad ni mom ng makalapit samin si Doc.
“Don't worry ma'am, she's fine.” saad nya saka parang may hinahanap.
“Doc, are you looking for someone?” I asked.
“Who is her husband?”
“Husband? What are you talking about doctor?” tanong ni mom.
“I mean, you don't know that she is pregnant?”
“So Zion's right, your sister is pregnant.” baling naman sakin ni Mom na ngiting ngiti.
“Congratulations,” saas ni doc na nakipag kamay pa kay mom.
“Thank you”
“I'll take a leave” doc said again atsaka na umalis.
Nagtungo na sina mom and ate Aira skay Kourtney ako namna sinagot muna yung tawagmula kay Zion.
“Oh kamusta si Kourtney?”
“Zion your right” saad ko.
I sighed. So she's really pregnant.
