"Anak? Why are you crying" She heard Irene said behind her back and Celestine's eyes went wide before turning around "anak, I asked you why are you crying, did someone hurt you" Irene asked and Celestine took a deep breath and looked at Ellen
"M-mommy is it really you, do you remember me na" Celestine asked her "come here baby" Irene said and Celestine hugged her tight "Mommy, I miss you so much" Celestine said while crying "now care to tell me why you're crying, give me a reasonable reason other than me laying here with an oxygen and apparatus" Irene said "mommy it's abou- nevermind, it's just tears of joy mommy don't worry" Celestine lied to her mom
Irene is just recovering from her amnesia, and Celestine don't want her to get hurt from Greggy's infidelity "are you sure anak, for sure there's also pain in your tears" Irene said while wiping the tears from Celestine's eyes
"Wala to mommy, what's important now is that you're alive" Celestine said, she's trying to change the topic "anyway nak, where's Greggy, nasaan si daddy mo" Irene asked her, Irene noticed how Celestine became stiff on her position "anak where is he, I want to see my husband I miss him" Irene said
Celestine looked at Ellen "call him manang" Celestine said to Ellen coldly, Ellen nodded her head before going out of the room "something is up between you and your father, come on baby what happened" Irene asked Celestine "Nothing mommy, just a little tampuhan, Uhm he forgot to buy me uhm a new phone, yes a new phone yung latest ng iPhone" Celestine lied
Oh dear, Celestine's biggest weakness is lying, she's not good at it, if I say she's not good at it, she undeniably terrible at lying, Irene just raised a brow but shrugged it off, she know something was up but she don't want to make her daughter uncomfortable with the topic
"Greggy is on his way but don't worry may inasikaso lang daw siya" Ellen said as Irene smiled brightly "busy-busy han or inatupag niya lang yung kabit at anak niya sa labas" Celestine muttered inaudibly "may sinasabi ka nak" Irene asked her while Ellen don't know if she'll be proud at her alaga or be pity
"P-po, nope I didn't say anything" Celestine denied and she just lay down beside Irene "huy Celestine" Ellen said to Celestine "ano ba manang wag kang panira ng moment" Celestine said as she cuddle with Irene
Meanwhile, Greggy is on his car driving, because Ellen called him that Irene is already awake, and to his surprise his daughter was the one who asked for it, Greggy is driving when someone called him
"Hello Bettany what do you want this time" Greggy asked her "can you go here sa condo ko please" Bettany said as she sobbed "why are you crying" Greggy asked her "m-my stomach is hurting a lot Greggy, there's a blood coming down on my thighs" Bettany said
"WHAT, OK I'M ON MY WAY" Greggy frantically said to her as he take a U-turn so he can go to Bettany's condominium, after a few minutes, he arrived at the condo and pressed the elevator until he reached the unit
He entered the unit and he saw Bettany laying in the bathroom floor blood "Betty" Greggy said as he carry Bettany as he run fast towards his car, "you and the baby will be ok, I promise" Greggy said while panicking
He arrived at a different hospital so His family will not know that he's with Bettany, Greggy immediately carry her in the emergency room "Hanggang dito nalang po kayo" the nurse said "please save my mag-ina, I'll pay kahit magkano iligtas nyo lang sila parehas" Greggy pleaded but the nurse just ignore his words
"Tito Greggy" Someone called him and he turn around and it's his niece Ellie "Ellie, ano ginagawa mo dito" Greggy asked her "oh I'm a nurse in-charge may kakasugod lang kasi na pasyente sa er how about you tito" She asked him
"Teka, i've heard from Celestine na sa st Luke's hospital si tita Irene what are you doing here, diba dapat nandoon kay-" she was cutted of by her colleagues "Ellie bilis, nauubusan na ng dugo si Mrs Araneta" the nurse said and Ellie looked at Greggy shock so she immediately run inside
"Where's tita iren- teka hindi siya si Tita Irene, bakit mo siya tinawag na Mrs Araneta" Ellie asked her "ha? Eh kakasabi lang ni Mr Araneta na iligtas yung mag-ina niya, hello siya kaya yung sinug- hell no don't tell me kabit to" Shiela whispered the last part
"It's actually a sin to tita Irene kung ililigtas ko tong mag-inang to" Ellie said as she watched the other nurses doing there job "You're right, I'm actually a little bit hesitant to save a mistress and illegitimate child, but we have no choice nurse tayo, we can't involve and blame the innocent baby from her mother's sin" Shiela said
Ellie just rolled her eyes before saying "Celestine and tita Irene nawa'y patawarin nyo ako sa gagawin ko" she muttered and went to Bettany, she was hesitant at first but still do it even if it's against her, she's a nurse and she have to be professional in her job no matter how much she hated the person
Greggy, on the other hand, is pacing back and forth while waiting for the nurse to come out 'Greggy, where on earth are you, hinihintay ka dito ng asawa mo' He saw Liza message him and his eyes went wide when he realized that Irene is waiting for him
"Ano ba tong pinasok ko" Greggy angrily muttered, he decided to stay and wait for the nurses to come out and visit Irene tomorrow, right now Bettany is important specially his baby
After thirty minutes, Ellie came out of the room and give Greggy a cold and dark stare "I have a sentence for you before I say the exciting part" Ellie said to him and Greggy looked at her confused "what is it" Greggy asked her
"I'm so disappointed to you" Ellie said to him and he looked at her, he can't blame Ellie is she'd be disappointed, it's his fault after all so why would he blame her "look it's all a mistak-" Ellie cutted him of "Cheating was never been a mistake, it's a choice tito, you choose to be selfish and forgot that you're daughter will be the one who'll be more damage in the mess that you've caused" Ellie said "let alone tita Irene, your wife for 39 years" Ellie added
"I'm sorr-" she cutted him off again "don't apologize to me, apologize to your family" Ellie said when she remember what the news is "ok so moving on, let's go to the exciting part" Ellie said while looking at Greggy "tito" She said
