Follow me, Professor

Chapter 26

Paris's POV

I don't know what happened but I just saw myself crying in front of Hospital's emergency room. I've been feeling numb for a while now. 

After hearing Ate Xerrie's voice earlier, shouting and crying while holding her phone I knew by then and there that something happened. 

I was waiting for Hya's arrival at my bridal car earlier when she suddenly appeared infront of my car and keep knocking at my door saying Hya's name, she can't even talk properly while telling what happened. 

"I-i  h-he-heard a... c-ca-crashed."

Napapikit ako ng madiin ng marinig muli ang boses ni Ate Xerrie sa utak ko. 

I don't even know when and how I get here, I've been stupefied and I'm not yet recovered from being shocked. 

Why? Why her? God. 

Gods, I've been waiting for this moment to happen. Pero bakit? Bakit ganun? Pinaglalaruan ba talaga ako ng tadhana? I've been waiting for Hya's love ever since we were kids and now? 

I've been waiting for her since she was 8, I've been waiting to be liked by her, to be loved by her, to be missed by her, to be with her. I still remembered the first time that she smiled at me, laughed with me, and how she hugged me telling me that I'm not that beautiful but still she likes to be with me. 

I made myself to be worthy for her, to be successful as her father, to be on top of everyone, to do things on my own with my own sweat and tears. I made it on top, I made it Hya. I made it as what I've promised to you back then. 

"M-maive, Hija." 

Mas lalo akong napaiyak ng maramdaman ko ang yakap ni Tita Hera, my fiancé's mother. 

We've been here for almost 3 hours now. Me, Mom and Dad, Hya's parents, her two brothers and Ate Xerrie. 

Hanggang ngayon nasa ER parin sya, hindi pa lumalabas ang Doctor pero may pabalik balik ng mga nurses kanina but they didn't gave us any idea what was happening inside. 

I don't wanna lose her, she's still achieving her goals. Magiging Engineer ko pa sya as we planned before, magiging partner pa kami sa trabaho, ikakasal pa kami. We have a lot of plans for our future together. 

Don't you even dare leave me Hya, what will I do with my life without you? How can I survive now? You are my life, baby. Please. 

"D-doc, how was my daughter?" Mahinahon na tanong ni Tito Xaimon sa lumabas na Doctor mula sa emergency room. 

Sunod sunod kaming lumapit sa Doctor na animo'y pagod na pagod. 

He sighed deeply and look at us with a little smile on his lips. "She's back to life, after many times of reviving her she made it." Marahan pagkalasabi nya. "She'll be transferred to the ICU to monitor her. The accident she suffered is no joke. We still don't know when she will wake up, but let's wait for another miracle to happen. That's all I can say now. Excuse me."

"Thanks god." Rinig kong bulong ni Ate Xerrie. She's been crying,  kung hindi lang sya aaloin ni Kuya Xevie hindi talaga sya titigil kakaiyak. Also Kuya Xeverio, mahina lang syang umiiyak but I know that he's really hurt. Sa kanilang magkakapatid, si Kuya Xeverio ang pinaka close ni Hya. They have the same attitude though. 

I bit my lower lip to suppress myself from crying again, those words are not enough to make me stay still. I want to see her eyes. I want to see her smiling and laughing with me again. 

"Isa-isa lang daw ang pwedeng pumasok sabi ng Doctor, who will go first?"

We turned our attention to Kuya Xeverio, he's holding a one set of hospital gown. I look away, kahit gustong gusto ko ng makita si Hya, it must be her parents first.
