Lonely

FAMILY IS LOVE

They arrived at the hospital, mabilis n binuhat ni Greggy ang walang malay na si Louis, he was so nervous at that time. Kahit sino namang magulang diba?

Inassist sila ng mga nurse, at dumating ang doctor ni Louis. Dinala nila si Louis sa emergency room upang ma obserbahan ang kanyang kalagayan.

Nakasunod naman sila Irene at Victoria kila Greggy, they were both crying and nag aalala.

Hindi mapakali si Irene at nagpapanic ito, Victoria is trying to calm her.

They were at the waiting area, Greggy is calling Imee and Bonget para pumunta sa hospital kung nasaan sila ngayon. Hindi na nila pinapunta si Imelda at Aimee dahil baka makakuha lang ng sakit si Imelda sa hospital lalo na at may katandaan na ito, Aimee will be with imelda in San juan.

Pabalik balik naman ang lakad ni Irene, Victoria is sitting at nakatulala ito sa baba.

Gusto niyang umiyak pero hindi niya ito mailabas, naalala niya ang sabi sakanya ni Louis na dapat maging malakas sila at wag iiyak.

"Mommy, don't worry. Magiging okay si Ate. Sabi niya wag tayong umiyak dahil tayo yung pang huhugutan niya ng lakas diba?"she explained

"I'm her mother, Victoria hindi mo maalis sa akin na mag aalala. Paano kung......paano...."Victoria didn't let her finish, she held both hands of her mother

"Malakas si ate, alam ko kaya niya magtiwala tayo sa kanya at kay Papa Jesus."she calmly said

Pinaupo na ni Victoria si Irene, pinapagitnaan nila si Irene ni Greggy.

Tahimik silang naghintay sa waiting area, hanggang sa makadating sila Imee at Bonget.

Agad na tumayo si Irene at tumakbo patungo sa kanyang dalawang kapatid. Niyakap niya ang mga ito at humihikbi.

"What happened to Louis?"Bonget asked, hinihimas naman ni Imee ag likod ni Irene upang pakalmahin ito.

"Ate, I can't loose her. I can't"she almost whispered. Imee wiped her tears"Tell me what happened?"Imee said

Bonget went to Victoria and Greggy at kinausap niya sila.

Pinaupo muna ni Imee si Irene at pina-inom ng tubig dahil halos sinokin na ito sa kakaiyak.

She held her hands"Tell me what happened to her"she said at mahahalata mo na kinakabahan din ito.

"She had a coronary heart disease ate and she needs a heart donor to survive. Yun yung sabi niya sa amin ni Greggy."she explained. Imee went speechless at hindi makapaniwala sa pinagdadaanan nilang mag-pamilya.

"What?! Kelan pa? She hide it from you and Greggy?"she quaked

"She chose to hide it from us. Ate, tulungan mo akong makahanap ng heart donor niya, please?"she begged at lumuhod ito sa harap ni Imee.

"Of course, tutulungan ka namin. Kapatid ka namin. Tumayo ka dyan"she said at tinulungang umupo si Irene sa tabi niya.

Irene leaned on Imee's shoulder, Imee kissed her forehead. Magkatapat naman na nakaupo sa harap nila sila Greggy, Victoria, at Bonget.

Victoria is looking at her mom full of worry, she looked at her Mommy who is already sleeping on Imee's shoulder. Imee caught Victoria looking to Irene, nagkasalubong naman ang mga mata nila.

Imee just smiled at her and give her a nodd, meaning that her mom is fine and everything will be alright.

While they're waiting for the doctor, malalim naman ang iniisip ni Victoria. Iniisip nito kung paano na siya kung sakaling iwan sila ng ate Louis niya, and that thought made her eyes filled with tears.
