'Anong nangyari?, tanong ni Regina.
Tumatakbo siya mula pa kanina mula ng malaman niyang nadisgrasya si Narda. She was at the other wing of the hospital when Aiah called her.
'They were accidents, at isa ang sasakyan ni Narda sa nadamay.
'I'll get inside Aiah', she said.
'Regina, Regina relax. Ginagawa nila ang lahat para mailigtas siya.
And there was the tone she didn't want to hear. The monitor shows a flat line. The doctor's inside will do anything to revive her.
'No, please, no! she said while thumping the glass of the room. 'Narda, please lumaban ka', umiiyak niyang saad. 'Julienne, do something! sigaw niya, as if the other doctor can hear her.
Time of death: 16:42
Regina can't hear it, but she clearly read what Julienne's mouth said. Her head started to spin, her eyes became blurry, and the next thing she knew was nothing.
It's a prank!
Tapik sa balikat ang nagpa-gising sa kanya. Ipinikit niya muli ang mga mata nang mamulatan na nasa loob siya ng opisina niya.
'Riv, binangungot ka na naman? alalang tanong ni Aiah.
'Oo. Remember the last time na na-kwento ko sayo? Same scenario.
'Namatay ulit si Narda? Regina iba na yan. Apektadong-apektado ka na sa hindi niyo pag-uusap.
Napaisip siya sa sinabi ni Aiah, she still cares for her. No, she longed for her presence but she can't still talk to her after what she did.
'Dalawang buwan na Riv, hindi mo pa rin ba siya napapatawad?
Umiling siya. Hindi niya pa kaya.
Flashback,
It was her first day back at the hospital. She was so giddy and excited. She didn't tell it to Narda so she could surprise her. It's been three months since she agreed and allowed Narda to court her. Their relationship bloom into something wonderful, like a lover without label on it and they were so happy. So, she was thinking to said YES today, if God's permit.
'You're ready na 'te? her sister asked.
You heard it right. It was Colet. Maayos na sila, she also allowed her to be part of her life. Medyo konti pa and she will letting her Mom to be part also.
'Tara na', aya niya.
'Ate wag kang malikot', Colet said while driving.
'Okay naman yung suot ko diba?
'Ate kumalma ka', natatawang sagot nito. 'Hindi ka naman excited makita si Doc Narda?
'Halata ba?, ngiting-ngiti na tanong niya.
'Halatang-halata', sabay tawa ng malakas. 'Grabe Ate hindi ko ma-imagine na may ganitong side ka pala.
'Sshhh sikreto lang natin ha.
They were both laughing and jamming while they listening Tj Monterde's songs. Both having some fun.
Colet open the door for her sister, agad siyang umangkla sa braso nito. The hospital knows that their sisters. Noong una ay naging malaking usap-usapan ito sa buong ospital lalo na ng minsang lumabas si Colet sa opisina ni Regina na mugtong-mugto ang mga mata. Iyon yung mga araw na napili niyang kausapin ito ng masinsinan.
