"What the fuck!" Ella exclaimed

Na tumba naman si Jema at nagka galos pa ito

Ella quickly went outside and checked Jema

Ella's eyes were stuck on the latter

Seems like she found a goddess

Agad namang umalalay si Ella

"Are you okay? You're hurt...I-idadala kita sa hospital" Ella's voice panicked

"w-wag na. O-okay lang ako" Sagot ni Jema

"No, you're not. Hop inside my car, idadala kita sa hospital" Sambit ni Ella

"Makulit ka, Sabi nang okay na ako eh" Jema raised her voice

Napa buntong hininga si Ella

"I can't leave you here na ganito. Please?" Ella said

Jema rolled her eyes out of frustration

She had no other choice

Alangan namang uuwi siya na may galos at mugto ang mata

She slowly nodded

"Nagiging makulit ako, because I don't want you to be alone here. Alam kong we're not close, but my house is always available. I'm Ella DJ by the way, sorry nakalimutan kong mag introduction kanina" Ella said

Jema bit her lip to stop herself from smiling

"Ka inis! bat ang cute? nakaka asar"Jema thought

"So, miss... Since your friend is not replying, nor answering your calls, let's go to my place instead. Don't worry, Wala akong balak na masama sayo" Ella said

"Fine! But can I stay there for a week? Basta, pag gumaling na ako aalis na ako" sambit ni Jema
