Love You, Doc

Chapter 63- Minus one

Ella De Jesus
Nanlulumo pa din ako habang hawak ang kamay ni Jema

She's in critical condition, and Si Jordan yung hindi masyadong napuruhan

But I'm sure, ma traumatize yung bata for witnessing it

The death of his brother, her baby brother

1 month pa lang samin si Jessie eh

Isang buwan, agad namang nawala

Agad namang kinuha samin

Napa iyak naman ako

I heard the door opened, and it was Kyla and Jia

They both hugged me kaya napa iyak ako

"It's okay, ells... Andiro lang kami" Jia carresed my back

"Kamusta si Jordan?Hindi pa ba siya nagigising?" Kyla asked

Umiiling naman ako

"Halika, We bought some fruits for them... Wala na kaming work kaya napa aga kami ngayon ni Kyla." Jia said

Tumango naman ako at tsaka bumalik sa upuan ko, I sat beside Jema

I sobbed again nung na alala kong

Wala na pala si Jessie

But holding her hand made me calm

Gising ka na, love...

"Ella? Kumain ka na?" Jia asked

Tumango naman ako sakanila,Lies

Hindi ako kumain ever since we got in here

It makes me cry, lalo na pag na aalala ko si Jessie, our youngest

"Umiiyak ka nanaman, Tama na yan. Ikain mo nalang yan. Hakika" Jia sais

"B-busog pa a-ako, j-ji...k-kayo nalang muna" I said and looked at Jema

I heard them heaved a sigh

I didn't bother them, and tinutok ang tingin ko kay love

Gising ka na ha, Hihintayin kita

Wag pasobrahan yung tulog, Namimiss na kita eh

Love, si Jessie... I don't know kung paano sasabihin sayo in person

Kasi alam kong doble, tripleng sakit ang mararamdaman mo

Jordan's... Jordan's sleeping. Hindi napuruhan si Jordan love

Gising ka na ha? Haharapin natin to

"She'll wake up" I heard Jia said kaya napa tingin ako sakanya

"gigising rin siya, Doc Dj... Just give her time. I'm sure She's just recovering.."She said

"D-dada..." It was Jordan

Agad akong napatayo and checked him

I saw kyla going out, tatawagin niya yung doctor

"H-hello love...May masakit ba sayo, anak?" I asked

"M-mommy...B-baby byother, d-dada" mahinang sambit niya

A tear escaped from my eye

"A-anak, y-your baby b-brother... a-anak h-he's... He's gone... A-anak I-I'm sorry" I sobbed and held his hands

I saw him crying, naiintindihan niya ata

"S-soyi d-dada, I- didn't d-do a-anything foy B-baby...I-im a b-bad k-kuya" he sobbed

Napa iyak naman ako

"N-no, no... Y-you're not a b-bad k-kuya, okay? I-I love you" I said and cried

Maya maya ay dumating na yung Doctor

"D-doc dj, dito po muna"jia pulled me away from Jordan

Naka tulog ako, kaya bahagya ako napa idlip

"Alyssa, she needs someone... Help her, tulungan niyo si Ella... She's always breaking down, Baka nga iiyak nanaman siya if magigising siya" I heard Jia

Napa iyak nanaman ulit ako

Paano kaya kung... mawala ako sa mundo?

Pagod na pagod na ako,gusto ko na sumuko... but Jema and Jordan kept me going

umayos ako ng upo and wiped my tears

Napansin naman yun nila Alyssa and Julia kaya nilapitan ako ni Ly

"besh, I-I'm Sorry..." She softly said

Napa tango naman ako

Ganyan naman talaga eh

I understand, everything

I felt a tear on my eye, umiiyak nanaman ako

"You've been crying for four days, Jorella. And, nailibing na si Jessie" She said

I cried when I heard his name,Jessie

Anak, I'm sorry, wala ako

I could've save you three, pero wala eh

I should be there, pero nagiging makasarili ako

I'm sorry, my Jessie Mikhail

"E-ells, stop crying na" Pang aalo ni Alyssa

"D-dada..." gising na si Jordan

I quickly wiped my tears at tsaka lumapit kay Jordan

"H-hi... are y-you, h-hungry?" I asked

"D-dada, b-baby byothey" he said

"I-its okay a-anak..." I replied

"D-dada, g-gun... s-shoot... b-bang...D-dada b-bad g-guys" He cried

I sat beside his bed and hugged him tight

"I'm here, anak... D-dada's here. Your M-mommy's still sleeping anak..." I said

I tried not to cry in front of her

"D-dada, I'm s-scayed... b-bad guys" umiyak naman siya

"Dada's here, and I promise, you're safe kasi andito si Dada. Tahan na okay, Dada's here" I said and kissed his forehead

Napa tingin naman sina Jia and Ly sakin

I smiled bitterly at them
