Rodrigo's POV
A few hours later..
Ang lamig lamig na ng aircon so I decided to turn it down, Eloise's allergies got triggered, just like Imee - naubos niya na yata ang buong box ng tissue. Pero still, she kept on studying. 'Tong batang toh.
She wouldn't let me teach her everything, she likes to figure it all out, while naghihintay lang ako sa tabi to check her answers.
"Tapos ka na?" ani ko habang lumapit ako sa kaniya.
"Ye-es, can you please check it po?" tanong niya, medyo antok na to eh..
She gave me her paper, with her pen which made me see specks of red rashes on her hand.
"Ano to? Uminom ka ba ng gamot, pang-allergies??" I panicky asked.
"Uhm, ah wala pa po yan kanina eh.. I-inuman ko na po.." she said as she stood up, pero bigla siyang tumigil sa paglakad at bigla nalang siyang umupo sa sofa.
"U-umi-ikot lahat.." patawa pa niyang sabi, nalilintikan na yata to.
Hinawakan ko kamay niya para mabalanse, at nashock naman ako nung naramdaman ko gaano ka init yung palad niya.
"Oh my God! Eloise ang init init mo na! Dalhin kita sa hospital, tatawagan ko lang mommy mo.." I exclaimed.
"Tito, wag na po pleaaasee, I probably just overworked myself po eh.. No not mommy, don't tell her po, kasi she'll be stressed na naman.." she said and sweetly smiled.
"Kaylangan.."
"Alam mo anong kaylangan po, tito? Yung masahe mo po!" she exclaimed.
I was left confused by what she said.
"Mommy used to tell me about your massages sa noo, nakakawala daw ng pain, gusto ko ma-try.." dagdag pa neto.
"Oh, gusto mo?" tanong ko.
"Yes! Yes! Yes!"
"Okay, inumin mo muna mga meds mo okay? Then im-masahe kita.?" I compromised, in which she easily followed. Yun yung gusto eh, bat ko ipipilit.
Matapos naman ay hinatid ko na siya sa kwarto niya, minasahe, at binantayan lang hangga't makatulog. Habang ako nama'y naka-upo lang sa sofa.
A few hours later..
*Ring*
Shet! Mag-aalas kwatro na ng umaga, nakatulog naman ng mahimbing si Eloise. Chineck ko temp niya, normal lang din naman, next kong chineck ay yung phone ko, 16 missed calls and an incoming call from Tinatangi.
"H-hello?" sagot ko.
"RODRIGO, SAN KA NA NILAGAY NG DIYOS, BWISET KANG HINAYUPAK KA, TANG*NA MONG LALAKI KA!" Imee madly uttered.
"Uhm, hi mahal!" bati ko pa ulit as I stood up and slowly went out of the room
"WAG MO KONG MA-MAHAL MAHAL, RODRIGO! ASAN KA DI KA NAGDALA NG SECURITY? GAGO KA BA ROD?!" she half shouted.
"Uhm, nasa condo ako ni Eloise.. Kasi.."
Tito Rod, please don't tell mommy ah.. Naalala ko sinabi ni Eloise kanina, and.. di ko na alam ano gagawin ko. It
"Kasi?!" sigaw ulit ni Imee sa kabilang linya.
"K-kasi.. nagpaturo siya ng calculus.. Exam daw bukas.." sagot ko naman.
"Calculus? May alam ka diyan?" biro pa niya.
"Ang sakit mo naman makapagsalita, asawa ko." biro ko pabalik.
