Still Not Over You

71

IN THE HOSPITAL ROOM

Tylli suddenly woke up when she heard something fall.

Tylli:
Ma?

It took a few seconds for someone to answer.

Joshua:
I'm sorry it woke you up.

Do you need anything?

Tylli:
Can you help me sit?

Joshua:
Sure..

Joshua help her sit. It was hard for her to do it alone since her other leg is not in its best condition right now.

Tylli:
Why are you here?

Joshua:
Tita and Tito went to file your leave since it may take a while for you to recover. I volunteered na bantayan ka.

Tylli:
What I mean is you also have work.. bakit ka nandito?

You're always here everyday simula noong araw ng aksidente.

Joshua:
I filed for a leave too, so I could help you.

Tylli:
You didn't have to do that. Mama and Papa can help me.

Joshua:
Don't worry I decided on my own accord since I kind of feel guilty for letting you drive on your own and also about your car. If it was only fixed and returned immediately, this wouldn't happen.

Tylli:
Wala ka namang kasalanan.. it's all on me.

Joshua:
It was no one's fault, really. It was an accident.

So, do you need anything? Are you hungry?

Tylli:
No. Where's my phone?

Can I use it na? I need to text ate na kunin muna si Butter sa bahay kung hindi pa siya nakukuha nina Papa. Kawawa ang anak ko..

Joshua:
The baby's fine. He's with your ate na.

Tylli:
That's good to know. I wonder how he felt when he was left alone sa bahay.

Can I get my phone?

Joshua:
I don't know where it is, but you can use mine if you really need to do something.

Tylli:
Can I? Baka may importante kang kausap?

Joshua:
Wala naman. Here.

121219 is the password.

Tylli:
Okay. Thanks.

Tylli typed the password on his phone. She thought the pin combination was familiar, but she didn't mind it.

Joshua:
Can I leave you here for a while? I'll just buy something.

Tylli:
Yeah, sure.

Your phone..

Joshua:
Sa'yo na muna. Sa baba lang naman ako bibili.
