JEMA
"m-mommy, g-go home" Estrella sobbed
"You're not yet okay, anak"Sambit ko
Nasa hospital kami ngayon dahil may Asthma nanaman si Star
"M-mommy" Estrella whispered
"Mommy's here, anak. Don't worry okay?"I kissed her forehead habang pinapa nebulizer siya
Naka tulog naman siya from her nebulizer
Maya maya, dumating na si Dave
"Hon, I bought some food. Tulog na si Star?" He said
Tumango naman ako
Napa yakap naman siya sa akin
"She'll be fine honey. Andito naman tayo eh, she's strong"He whispered
Tumango ako at hindi nagsalita
Kumain muna kami ni Dave ng hapunan
"Ilang days kang naka leave, hon?" He asked
"Hanggang sa maka labas si Star hon. Alam na din naman kasi ni Ate Jia. Bibisita nalang daw sila ni Kyla dito"sagot ko
Tumango siya at Nagpa tuloy sa pag kain
"Hon sa couch na ako, Ikaw na dyan sa tabi ni Star " sambit niya
"Eh baka sasakit lang yung likod mo hon" sabi ko sakanya
"Okay lang, Basta kayo na dyan hon. Mas mabuti rin na yung likod ko lang yung sasakit at hindi yung sayo" he replied and smiled
I rolled my eyes on her kaya napa tawa nalang siya
Hindi pa din ako maka tulog
"Hon, gising ka pa?" I said
Alas dose na pala ng madaling araw
"I'm awake, honey. Bakit, may problema ba?" He asked
Nakita ko siyang tumayo at lumapit sa hospital bed
"Wala, hindi ako makatulog hon" Sagot ko
Nag buntong hininga siya at tsaka hinalikan ako sa labi
"Gusto mo bang kantahan kita?" Sambit niya
Tumango naman ako
Umupo siya at hinawakan ang kamay ko
"Close your eyes, dry your tears
'Cause when nothing seems clear
You'll be safe here from the sheer weight
Of your doubts and fears
Weary heart, you'll be safe here"Pag gising ko, naramdaman kong naka yakap pali sakin sina Dave at Star
I smiled and kissed their foreheads
Nagising naman bigla si Dave
"Good morning hon"He smiled
"Good morning,honey. Thank you for your song" sambit ko
"Kahit pangit boses ko,Kakantahan pa din kita" Napa ngiti ako
"Im so thankful to have you, Davey. Thank you so much for accepting us" Napa ngiti siya at hinawakan ang magkabilang pisngi ko
"I'll do everything to keep you safe, To make you happy. Mahal na mahal kita Jema, At hindi ko kayo ipagpapalit sa iba" Sambit niya
He leaned closer and kissed me
Ilang minuto lang ang tinagal ng halikan namin
"And I'd choose you everyday, my davey" I whispered
Lunch time and Nagpa nebule na ulit
si Star
