"What happened Lea?" Adrian asked her when they reached the emergency room.

Aga is still carrying  his son in his arms.

"He got too excited when he saw Aga, he passed out." Lea explained.

The young doctor instructed Aga to lay Aj on the bed.

"Adrian, please save my son." Iyak pa ni Lea, and Adrian hugged him to calm her down.

"Don't worry, I'll do my best okay? I think he was just exhausted." Adrian said and let go of her.

She looked at Aga still looking at her grimly.

Aga recognized the face. It was the same man that Lea was hugging in the picture, but he doesn't care anymore.

He only cared about his son.

After minutes of waiting, Adrian faced them again.

"Is he alright?" He asked the guy that might be or may not be his wife's other man.

"He is, as I said he was just exhausted. Ipapadala ko na siya sa private room niya." The doctor replied and turn to Lea.

"Lea, I need to tell you something about Aj."

"If it has something to do with my son then I'll come as well." Matigas na sabi naman ni Aga.

"I'm sorry. I didn't realized you were Aj's father. Come with me then." Anito at nauna ng naglakad papalayo sa kanila.

"Go on Aga. Ikaw na sumama kay Doc. I can't leave Aj alone here." Lea instructed while caressing the hand of their son.

Tila naman nadurog ang puso ni Aga sa nakita.

Lea really love their son too much, and he's afraid of what will happen to her in case something bad happened to Aj.

He nodded his head and followed the doctor.

Unbeknownst to her, Lea have another thing in her mind.

When the hospital staff came in to bring Aj to his suite, Lea immediately followed and when they were alone she took something in her bag.

She knew a month is still early to check but she cannot wait a month long.

She didn't know if her son can wait as well, with his sickness kept on progressing every day, she cannot take chances.

After peeing on the stick, she let out a cry.

Negative, it says.

She had to work double time to get pregnant. A bone marrow transplant is the only thing that can save Aj.

And she's willing to swallow all of her pride to make it happen.

Including seducing Aga even if that means they'll have to fvck night and day, she'll do it.

------------------

"Where's Lea?" Doc. Adrian asked him as soon as he opened the door.

"She let me come alone, hindi niya kasi maiwanan ang anak namin." Aga patiently answered the doctor, he knew very well not to mess-up with the person who's treating his son.

"Very well, I can tell this to you naman since you are the father. I won't sugar coat it Mr. Muhlach, the chances of your son surviving is very slim. I also read his medical records from Amsterdam and Japan and I knew that Lea is already aware of this, the only option he has is a bone-marrow transplant."

Hearing that there's still hope, Aga felt a little lighter.

"I'm willing to donate mine Doc." He answered..

"That's the thing Mr. Muhlach, parents are  an unlikely match. Mostly it's their sibling or their pregnant Mom, it can be performed between the 18th-25th month of pregnancy."

Madami pang sinabi ang doctor but only one thing sink-in on his mind.

Lea has been trying to get pregnant since they met, and that was the reason why she agreed to his offer as well.

-------------

"Mommy?" Kaagad niyang nilingon ang anak na nagising na mula sa pagkakatulog.

"Hey, baby. Don't go running around again ha? It's bad for you." She told her son as she caressed his face.

She's trying not to cry in front of him.

Her heart is breaking everytime she saw her son laying in bed.

"I promise Mommy, but where is Daddy?" He asked innocently but the panic is evident in his eyes.

"He's just talking to Dr. Adrian anak."

"Is he coming back? Is he going to live with us na?"

She doesn't want to give him false hope so she really doesn't know how to answer that.

"Mom?"

"Mommy will try okay? I promise I'll do everything to make it happen." She promised him at napa ngiti naman si Aj.

Aj used to be a lively kid before cancer hit him.

He was just three when he got it, just before Aga showed up in Amsterdam.

"Mommy, I'm sleepy." Reklamo nito and she smiled at him.

"Then go to sleep little one." Aniya habang hinahaplos ang ulo nito.

"But I want to wait for Daddy." He said despite his eyes already closing, it was obvious that the kid is too tired to wait for his father.

"Your Dad will be here once you wake-up, I promise." She assured him.

"Okay! I'll sleep na, but will you sing to me first?" He requested and she obliged.

'Til the stars fall from the sky
'Til I find a reason why
And darling as the years go by
'Til there's no tears left to cry
'Til the angels close my eyes
And even if we're worlds apart
I'll find my way back to you by heart.

When Aj is already fast asleep, that's when Lea let her tears fall.

------------

When Aga went to his son's suite he saw that Lea is crying.

What now? He asked himself. He doesn't know what to feel, let alone what to say to her.

"Ags--" she said and he raised his one hand to stop her from talking.

"Not now Lea." He just said as he reached for his son.

He held his hand on his, looking at how pale and sick his son is, he cannot help but cry.

His shoulders are shaking from crying and he felt a hand on his shoulder.

He knew that touch, it was Lea.

He didn't reacted.

He didn't say a word and neither does she.

They just stayed in that position, both crying.

He couldn't take it anymore and he hugged his wife. He hugged her so tight as if he was afraid that she'll fade away.

Lea hugged Aga back just as intensely for she knew that they haven't done "the talk" yet, and maybe this is her chance to convey how she felt.

How much sorry she was.

How much she regretted everything.

How much she wanted to do everything just to feel right by him.

And just how much she wanted to stay beside him like this.
