Chasing sunsets

Chapter 7- Headaches

JEMA

Mas lalo namang naging worst yung condition ko

I have to tell my doctor about this

Pero hindi to dapat malaman ni Ella

" Love, what are you doing?" I asked

"Just Checking your schedules. Why?" sagot niya

I smiled and umiiling sakanya

To: Doc Gonzales
Hi doc, good morning

To: Doc Gonzales
Can I ask po about the results?

From: Doc Gonzales
Finally, Nag reply ka na din

From: Doc Gonzales
About your results, I need you to come to my office

To: Doc Gonzales
Good News po ba doc?

From: Doc Gonzales
Much better if dito nalang tayo mag usap about it okay?

To: Doc Gonzales
Okay po doc. I'll go there now

From: Doc Gonzales
Okay. I'll wait for you okay?

From: Doc Gonzales
Ingat ka, Jema

To: Doc Gonzales
Yes po doc, see you!

I

turned off my phone at nag retouch muna ng slight

"Where are you going, my love?" Ella suddenly asked

Oh shoot, nakalimutan ko

"Oh,may lalakarin lang ako somewhere. Ill be back okay? love you, I'll message you nalang when I
get there para hindi ka mag aalala" Sagot ko

Tumango naman siya at tsaka hinalikan ang pisngi ko

"Bye love, Ingat ka" she hugged me

Napa ngiti ako at tsaka niyakap siya ng mahigpit

Mahal na mahal kita, Ella

"So... That's it" sambit ko after that long silence

Ano bang gagawin ko sa 2 and a half Months?

Mas pina ikli pa talaga yung buhay ko

Paano yung music video?

Maybe I should tell ate Jia na pabilisan yung process

Hindi ko sasabihin yung reason why

She'll get devastated for sure

Marami naman na akong inipon eh

Bibigay ko nalang kina mama at tatay para sa future purposes

Sina ate Jia at Kyla

Hindi ko alam

Hindi ko alam kung paano sasabihin

"Jema, nakikinig ka ba?" Doc Gonzales snapped out kaya napa balik ako sa ulirat ko

I looked at him and nodded

"Thanks po doc, but please don't tell anyone about my condition" sambit ko

Nag buntong hininga si Doc

"Jema, you should tell someone about your condition. Lalo na't you're experiencing some attacks. Delikado yan Jema" Sagot niya

"Thanks po doc, I should get going"I said and lumabas ng clinic niya

I sat on the my car at nag buntong hininga

I have 2 months and a half left para maka sama ang mga pinaka importante kong tao sa buhay

Anong gagawin ko?

"Ella, I'm sorry" I softly said

I was about to turn on the engine nang biglang sumakit ang ulo ko

I fell asleep and I don't know what happened

Nagising ako, at nasa hospital psrking lot pa pala ako

I checked the time and alas siyete na

Ang daming missed calls nila Ella, ate Jia and Kyla

I texted them one by one and then nag drive na pa uwi

Pag uwi ko, I saw ella sa tapat ng gate

She hugged me nang makita niya ako

"San ka galing? kanin pa ako nag aalala sayo" she softly said

Napa ngiti naman ako

"I'm fine, love. Kanina ka pa ba dito?" sagot ko

kumawala naman siya sa yakap at tsaka tumango

"Can you cook me some dinner?" I said

Napa ngiti naman siya at tsaka tumango

Hinawakan ko ang kamay niya at tsaka pumasok

Mahirap na sa labas,baka may makakita pa samin at gawan kami ng issue ni Ella

After eating, we cuddled on my bed hanggang sa makatulog na

Morning came when I felt someone looking at me

I smiled and idinilat ang mata ko

"Good morning, my love. Hows your sleep?" Bungad niya

"It feels great, Good morning too my love" I smiled

"Let's go downstairs na? para ma lutuan kita"Sambit niya

Tumango naman ako at tsaka tumayo na to do my morning errands

"Ano yung mga gagawin ko today love?" I asked

"Hmm, You have 2 interviews today and finishing nalang ng music video mo love" sagot niya while looking at her Ipad

I bought her Ipad para di na siya Mahihirapan na mag take down ng notes

may pen kasi yung ipad niya

Tumango naman ako

"Ligo muna ako love" sambit niya habang kinuha ang towel

"Can I join?" I asked

Napa tingin naman siya sakin

I smiled at ella

"Come join with me then" she said

Napa ngiti naman ako at sinabayan siya sa pag ligo

Muntikan pa talaga kaming malate!

Eto kasing si Ella eh

"Okay na love, di na kita?" I asked

Naglakagay ako ng concealer sa may leeg ko

Nilagyan pa talaga ako ng hickey sa leeg!

"All good na po. Let's go, May mga media sa labas" she smiled

Tumango naman ako at tsaka lumabas ng kotse
