CHERRY BLOSSOM

*24*

Tina sighed. They were now at airport. Tu, Dew, Sara came to see her. Sara was hugging her not leaving her for a single second. After one hour she had her flight.

Ting! The announcement was made for the next flight. Tina stood up. But her wrist was tightly held by Sara.

"Babe.. "

"I know I know.... It's just... I... I'm trying hard not to burst down... I... I really love you Tina... I'll wait for you" Sara bit her lips, her tears dropped.

Tina held her nape and kissed her. Tu smiled. Dew hugged her sideways. They pulled away from the kiss. Tina kissed Sara's forehead

"Bye.... Take care na.. "

Sara nodded "You too"

With that Tina walked away with her luggage. Sara just stared at the retreating figure with her glossy eyes.

Tina landed to Philippines, she saw her colleagues Tay and New.

"Tay, New"

They turned around and smiled "Tina!"

They hugged each other. They all walked to their condominiums respectively. Tina find it cozy enough for one person. She looked around the room, she instantly fell in love. She went to washroom to freshen up.

Tina called Sara, who just accepted the call on one ring.

"Baby you fine? You need me there? You're ok na there love? Speak up baby? You need candy? Shall I go there?"

Tina laughed. "Calm down my lady... I'm fine... I'm all ok now.. And no I don't need candy... And yes I wish you were here with me"

Sara on the other side sighed. She smiled looking at the front view while sitting on the swing of her hidden place.

Both stayed silent. Only soft breathes was enough for them to feel touch even they aren't physically beside each other. Tina broke the silence

"Had dinner love?"

"Um... You?"

"No.. And don't lie to me.. You didn't eat yet right?"

Sara sniffed. Tina sighed. "I can't eat without you being here"

"Love.. "

"No no.. Let me speak.. Please... I'm feeling suffocated.. I already started missing you as soon as you started walking away from me in the airport. I wanted to run to you hold you from behind and hug you tightly. I wanted to cage you in my arms, and never let you go. You know I had a bad feeling, but... Later I realized one thing"

Tina's tear dropped. "What my love?" Sara's tear dropped too "That even I feel hurt but somewhere in my heart it was telling me not to stop you from your life... You're that one beautiful soul who works hard to save your patients... You're one pretty soul who loves other instead of caring about yourself... You determined your mind that you'll make a smile in your parents face. You felt jealous when I cracked smiles on my family member's face but truth to be told you're a fighter... You felt jealous but still tried in your own way to make your parents proud of you... You're a doctor that every person needs... And me too... I need my doctor Tina too... That's why I let you go... "

Tina broke down. She covered her mouth to resist the sobs coming out from her mouth. But failed.

"I love you" Both said to each other.

Next morning, Tina became ready. She was nervous because the person for whom she'll work was a famous doctor. She got a text from Sara.

Sara my baby❤🐣:
Hope your first day be the best. May God bless you princess❤❤

Tina chuckled. Her mood enlightened and less nervous. Her two colleagues came to pick her up, they went to the hospital.

"Welcome Miss Tina... It's nice to meet you in person" Mr. Francisco greeted her.

"Nice to meet you too sir".

"Hope you feeling relieved with the surroundings?"

"Yes sir... Thank you"

"No problem... Uh actually you know my problem right?"

"Yes sir... "

"Great then... Well when will you start then..?"

Tina with full determination said "From Today... Now... In this instant"

Francisco smiled "I like the adrenaline rush inside you doctor Tina" Tina smiled.

The whole day passed, Tina looked after the patients, many of them complimented her for being so generous. Tina just gave a soft smile to them. She met a cute boy there who was sitting in the wheelchair. She crouched down,

"What's your name little handsome man?"

The boy blushed "T-Tine"

"Aw... You're so cute you know that... And what a coincidence my name is Tina.. "

Tine smiled cutely. Tina giggled. She talked to the kid for few more minutes. The child's father came to take him.

"Tine.. Let's go bun"

"Hm... Bye bye aunty"

"Bye baby Tine" They went away. Tina was kept her vision to the boy in wheelchair. She felt bad for the boy. Such a cute little one. She walked to the boss's cabin.

"May I come in Sir?"

"Huh... Oh yah sure miss Tina"

"Sir... Can you give me the details of a boy Tine?"

"Tine... Oh.. That boy.. Yah sure" Francisco handed a laminated document to Tina.

"Here's the details of him... But I want to say something... If you want to look after him.. You can.. But the problem is no doctor in our department ever made him walk because of his constant fear"

Tina looked at the document.
Tine Teepakorn, 8 years old, had an accident at age 5, his mother died in accident. Tina felt more hurt for him. She looked up to her boss.

"I'll look after him"

Francisco smiled "As you wish.. ".

Tina was happy. All went back home. She washed herself up and was having dinner. Her phone buzzed, it was Sara.

"Hey princess.. "

"Hey Sara.. How was your day?"

"Fineeeee..... I'm a mess without you... What about you how was your day?"

Tina's eyes lit up when she remembered the case she got.

"You know... " For the next one hour she blabbered about today and the patient she need to look after. Sara was so happy. They talked for few more hours till it's time to sleep. But they can't sleep as they miss each other so much.

Both were lying on bed. Tina kept the phone on her pillow beside her, put it on speaker. "Baby sing for me na~"

Sara smiled. She sang a song for her. Tina fell asleep with a smile on her face.

"Hello?"

"Tina you there?"

Snoring sounds were heard. Sara smiled.

"Good night princess... I love you" She was about to cut the call but she heard a hush mumble

"Um.. I lobe youww Sara~~"

Sara chuckled. She cut the call and went to dreamland with a smile.
