Chapter 27

Anastasia's POV

                I hurriedly went downstairs to check mom. Mas lalo akong naiyak ng makita dumudugo ang noo niya.

I glanced over upstairs and dad wasn't there anymore. Kinuyom ko ang mga kamao ko. Anger filled my whole being.

He was the reason bat nahulog si mom! Kung bakit sobrang liit lang nabagay ay ikinagagalit niya! He didn't even checked on mom, how can he be such a cruel father and husband to us?!

The maids immediately called the ambulance and rushed mom to the hospital.

I called ate Astrid and informed her about sa nangyari pati na rin ang pambubugbog na ginawa ni dad saakin. Ginamit ko muna ang kay yaya cellphone dahil nakay Tiffany padin ang cellphone ko.

The doctors rushed mom to the emergency room at pinatigil ako sa pagsunod sa labas ng kwarto.

I was twitching my fingers and pacing back and forth. My heart is beating rapidly and my head is still spinning.

Napasabunot ako sa buhok ko at napaupo sa pader. Mas lalo akong naiyak sa mga nangyayari ngayon.

I closed my eyes and prayed to Him.

Please po, wag si mommy nagmamakaawa po ako. I know hindi ako paladasal na tao but I believe in you, in your miracles, please save my mommy po. I begged you po, wag po muna si mommy.

A lone tear drop from my eye hanggang sa nagsunod-sunod na sila na magbasakan. I silently sobbed, praying to Him.

After an hour I heard someone called me.

"Anastasia!" I stood up when I heard ate Astrid voice.

She immediately hugged me and I cried on her shoulders.

"Ate... si mommy," I sobbed.

"Hey... everything will be fine, malakas si mommy, makakaya niya yan," she also broke her voice.

Napahiwalay kami sa isa't isa ng biglang lumabas ang doctor.

"Family of the patient?" he asked.

"Kami po,"

"Well the patient didn't get any severe injury just some scratches and tiny bruises galing sa pagkahulog niya, but don't worry we already put medicine on it kaya maheheal na din yun.  She just passed out nung mahulog siya sa hagdan. Luckily she protected herself  lalo na ang kanyang ulo. She is still under our observance and magigising na din siya anytime." he smiled at us.

Para akong nabunutan ng tinik ng dahil dun! Thank you po, Lord!

Ate also insisted to get me checked lalo na sa mga bruises na nasa katawan ko dahil sa pambubugbog ni dad.

"Did dad actually hit you?" she asked in disbelief.

"Sort of, I didn't even imagine na magagawa niya yun saakin," I whispered. I flinched when the doctor put alcohol on my wounds.

"Does Xaven already know about this?" Natigilan ako sa kanyang tanong.

Actually hindi niya pa alam, and I don't know if he already know about the issue. I just hope he doesn't misunderstood it.

Napayuko ako. I heard ate sigh.

"Pumunta kana dun, tell him everything that happened today," she seriously said.

"You know?" pagtukoy ko sa picture na kumakalat sa school.

Tumango siya.

"Hindi mo'ko tatanungin if totoo ba ang mga pictures na yun? Na inaakit ko siya para sa mataas na grade?" I asked.

Mabilis siyang umiling, "I've known you Anastasia since childhood, alam ko na hindi mo magagawa yun. I saw your efforts to gain your position and I know you deserve it. I am not a fool to believe stupid rumors," she gently told me at bahagyang ginulo ang buhok ko.

I smiled at her. Ate Astrid has always been my playmate since childhood but it changed when she handled the company, naging busy na din siya on her life. I supported her always and she does to me, we often have girls night out everytime kapag bakante ang schedule namin.

"About you and Xaven, he already told me about your status weeks ago. So don't be surprised if I already knew. Besides you both looked cute as a couple," she chuckled.

Namula ang pisnge ko.

May kinuha siya sa wallet niya at nalaki ang mata ko sa nakita,

A black card.

She saw my reaction at kinuha yun at pinaypay sa sarili while grinning at me.

She handed me her phone at yung card, yung isa pa niya, she said I could use it anytime. She even said if gusto ko, but I told her wag na.

Gusto ko ng black card kagaya niya!

After the doctor cleaned my wounds and bruises, agad agad akong umalis dun since si ate nalang daw muna magbabantay kay mommy.

I rode a taxi papuntang mansion nila Xaven. The sky is getting darker each minute that passes by.

I ringged the doorbell at biglang bumukas yun.

Inangat ko ang aking tingin at nakita si Xaven. Bigla akong napalunok.

"X-xaven..." he is looking at me with his emotionless eyes.

"What?" with his deep voice, he asked me.
