Madison's POV.

"Are you now feeling better, honey?" mahinahong pagtatanong ko kay Randall nang makabalik na kami sa kanyang kuwarto, matapos ko siyang masalinan ng dugo ko sa laboratory.

Wala ni isa sa aso't pusang sina Trevor at Russel ang nagmatch man lang sa blood type niya. Para pa silang mga batang nagbangayan sa harap ko sa kung sino ang nararapat na mag-donate ng dugo kay Randall, eh pareho naman pala silang hindi mapapakinabangan.

"Y-yes, mommy. Ako, gagaling din 'diba?" he asked me.

Binuhat ko si Randall mula sa kanyang wheelchair sabay lapag sa kanya sa kama niya. Lumuhod ako sa harap niya tapos ay mahigpit kong hinawakan ang magkabila niyang mga kamay. "Of course, sweetie. Once you get better, I'll promise that I will already allow you to go camping with your dad. Hindi ba't matagal mo na akong kinukulit tungkol dyan?"

"Woah! R-really? You are not joking, right?" Nabakas ko kaagad ang pagningning ng kanyang mga mata nang madinig niya akong magbitaw ng pangako.

"Only if you get better. Kaya dapat ay gumaling ka, ha? Mommy don't want Randall getting sick. It's breaking mommy's heart," giit ko habang inaayos ko iyong iilang mga hibla ng mga buhok na natatakpan ang kanyang napaka-cute na pagmumukha.

"I will! Mommy, huwag na sad. Ako, gagaling na eh." Mahigpit na yakap mula sa bulilit ko ang aking natanggap matapos siyang magsalita.

I closed my eyes as I took a lungful of air while I was in my son's warm embrace. As a mother, it really pains me to see everytime Randall is sick. I just can't put myself into focus to whatever I am doing, once my son isn't feeling well. I can't think straight and everything was blur everytime he is not in a good condition.

Randall Joseph Espinosa is everything for me. His safety and health are always my top priority. Kaya pakiramdam ko ay nadudurog ng sobra iyong puso ko sa tuwing nagkakasakit, nasasaktan o malungkot siya. What I always want is the best for him.

Ganoon pala iyong pakiramdam kapag nanay ka na. You will never going to expect that you can be in the most selfless version of yourself once you had a child. I never thought that I could be the most genuine, caring and a loving person after I had him in my life.

"Awabyou, mommy," mahinang bulong niya sa tenga ko sabay humalik pa sa aking pisnge.

"I love you the most, pumpkin," I answered softly.

After withdrawing from that embrace, I gently lay him in bed. Randall gave me a sweet smile on his face as I wrapped the blanket over his body.

"You need a lot of sleep for you to recover faster, okay?" I said as I fixed his hair.

Randall nodded. "Are you going to leave me and go to work, mommy?"

"No, sweetheart. Mommy will be here beside you twenty-four seven. Nag-day off muna si mommy para alagaan ka," sagot ko sa kanya sabay ngumiti.

"Yehey. Somehow it's good to be sick."

"What? Of course not. Why did you say that?" I asked him in a frowning face.

"Because I can be with you all day. Ikaw, di na pupunta sa work," he giggles.

"No. Baby, please don't say that. Getting sick is never a good idea. I can take a lot of day off from work, just please don't be sick again," I said softly.

"Really? Then will you go camping with us? Please, mommy ko?" Randall gave me a cute puppy eyes, obviously he was using his charm on me.

"I will. Basta't gumaling ka lang, anak."
