ELLA
Jema had finally woken up
And may mood changes lang
Pero madalas, nagsusungit talaga siya
But I have to endure it
It's part of the process naman diba?
As long as, gagaling si Jema, and makaka uwi na kami
Masyado pang maselan ang pag bubuntis niya since she's 6 months pregnant
About Elijah, May donor na rin ng dugo
And unti unti na ding gumagaling ang mga pasa at sugat niya
"D-dada" Elijah whispered
I held his hand and smiled
"Dada's here love, I'm here" Sambit ko
He smiled and nodded
"S-sorry, d-dada" he said
"Aww, it's okay kuya... you're doing great, okay? It's okay Ijah" Sambit ko
The monitor suddenly beeped and I saw elijah closing his eyes
"Eli? Elijah? wake up, eli" Sambit ko
The doctor and nurses came in
"T-teka lang! s-si eli" I yelled
Pinalabas naman ako sa ICU
no, Please elijah
They tried to Revive eli
"I'm sorry, miss. But hindi na po nakayanan ng patient, condolences po" napa upo naman ako
Akala ko ba okay na siya?
May donors na siya diba?
Gumagaling na yung sugat at pasa niya
Ano ba ang problema?
I kept on crying, begging to God to bring him back
I felt Alyssa and Jia's hand
"S-si E-eli... W-wala na s-si E-eli ko".I sobbed
Napa iyak naman silang dalawa
"Dadalhin na po namin siya sa morgue" sambit nung nurse
Si Alyssa na yung sumagot
Umiiyak lang ako hanggamg sa morgue
Ilang oras, at walang katapusang iyak
"E-eli"i sobbed and hugged his cold body
"E-eli ko...W-wake up love" I cried
"Ells, I-its time to let him go" I heard Alyssa said
I pushed Her away
"Umalis kayo! He'll wake up...Gigising si eli" Sambit ko
Hinayaan naman nila akong umiyak
My baby, my first baby
I'm sorry
"Ella, Balik na tayo kay Jema... hinahanap ka na niya" Alyssa said
"A-ayokong bumalik" I sobbed and cried again
"Andito ako, okay? andito kami nila Jia" Alyssa softly said
"I-I don't want to see her blaming herself dahil namatay si Elijah" I cried
Bawal kay Jema ang stress
And ayokong lumabas si Elisha na premature
"Ells" I cut her off
"P-please...i-iwan mo na ako dito. Just...J-just be there for her o-okay?" sambit ko
tinitigan lang ako ni Alyssa
"P-please , aly" I said
alyssa heaved a sigh bago tuluyang tumango
I told her na bumalik na dun at iwan na ako dito
Pag ka alis niya, Lumabas ako ng hospital
Dinala ako ng paa ko sa puntod ni Mama
Binuhos ko dun ang lahat ng luha ko
"M-ma, b-bakit?" I sobbed
"B-bakit... b-bakit ganito ang m-mundo sakin? b-bakit... b-bakit lahat h-halos nawawala" I cried
Bigla namang bumuhos ang ulan
Umiyak lang ako kasabay ng pag buhos ng ulan
I cried and yelled out Eli and Mama's name
I woke up dahil sa sinag ng araw
Nasa cemetery pa pala ako
Mukhang natuyo pa
"h-hi, m-ma" I bit my lower lip to stop myself from crying
"Jusko! andito ka lang pala besh!" It was alyssa
Alam nilang this my go to place every time
"Uwi na tayo, naka uwi na si Jema..." sambit niya
Napa tingin naman ako sakanya
Alam na niya kaya?
"Ella, She knows it already... Kaya tara na, she needs you" Alyssa said
she must've read my mind
Hinatak niya ako ng tuluyan
Pag uwi namin, halos kompleto lahat ng barkada
sinalubong naman ako ng yakap ni ate Joyce
"Nag aalala ako sayong bata ka! saan kaba galing ha?" Sambit ni Ate Joyce
"Nakita ko siya sa semeteryo, sa puntod ni tita" Alyssa said
Niyakap naman ako ulit
"Nasa taas si Jema, please be strong okay? Labanan niyo" Ate Joyce said
I slowly nodded
Tama si ate, I have to be strong
I have to show her to be strong
Umakyat na ako sa itaas
I saw her sleeping
I walked towards her at tsaka tinabihan siya sa higaan
"We can do this, for Elijah, and Elisha" I whispered as I hugged her tight
Naririnig ko naman siyang humikbi
"I'm here, lovey... M-makakayanan natin to okay? I-I love you" I said and kissed her forehead
"L-lovey"she sobbed and hugged me
"I'm here, don't cry na... Kaya natin to diba?"sambit ko
Tumango naman si Jema
"Basta ang importante, may angel na tayo na mag babantay satin... And our little girl" I whispered
Humihikbi lang siya sa dibdib ko
I silently sobbed as I hugged her tight
We'll get through this, Jema
For our kids
