Chapter 19

Lizzy is standing in the hallway that has a big glass window for the family can see the patient. She's watching her son since they cannot go inside the room. Her son was revived and the operation is successful, the thing is he's still in critical and delicate.

"I'm sorry anak ko" that's the phrase she always saying while looking at her son who's still unconscious.

-----
NO. no no no hindi yan totoo! "Dra. Chavez, he survived and the operation is successful. But we need to transfer him to the ICU rooms so that we can monitor him more, he's still critical and delicate"
------

She felt a arm around her shoulder. "Magpahinga kana muna, anak. Ako na muna ang magbabantay sa apo ko" her mom. Lizzy hugged her in an instant and started to cry again.

Its been a week since the accident happened, but they are still suffering because Christian is still unconscious untill now.

Doctor who's monitoring him is getting dissapointed in day by day results of Christians test, its getting bad day by day. But they are still hoping and doing their best to get him healthy.

TWO WEEKS. but still nothing is happening its like they are the only one who's fighting. Christian is slowly dying and it kills Lizzy and Kenneth.

ALMOST A MONTH. Still no improvement. Christian's health is getting worst. The doctors are losing their hopes. But Lizzy amd Kenneth are very determined and still hoping that their son will survive this.

"Tatapatin kona kayo, Dra. Chavez, sir Kenneth. Your son is getting worst day by day, I think we need to stop. He's dyin--" Lizzy cuts him.

"No! What are you saying?! Anak ko ang pinag uusapan dito doc naman. Sinasabi mobang mag give up na kami?! Well hindi ako papayag, kahit maubos anglahat ng pera ko gumaling lang ang anak ko." She kneeled. Crying hard.

"Please, don't lose hope doc. Pleasee nagmamakaawa ako" she's crying so hard now, she knew to herself that her son will die anytime soon but she's still hoping that there's a miracle.

Only a miracle can save her son. "Sorry, Dra. Chavez. We will do our very best" he bow his head before he left the two.

While Kenneth is jist standing. Like an ice, his body went cold after hearing the doctor. He still can't believe that this is happening to his son.

ALLOWED. A week after the conversation, they were allowed to go inside the ICU room but they can only touch his hand.

Lizzy is now sitting beside her son while holding his hand. "I miss you, baby. Please wake up na for Mommy oh." She sobbed. "Wake up napo please, mag p-play pa tayo diba. I promise hinding hindi napo kita iiwan just wake up na anak ko" kissing the back of his hand.

Kenneth on the other hand sat across Lizzy and held his sons hand. "Nak madami pa tayong dreams diba? Wag mo naman iwan si daddy, miss na miss na miss na kita, wake up na please, anak ko"

They are both crying. "I'm sorry if I left you that day... I'm sorry if inuna ko nanamn ang trabaho ko over you... I'm so sorry anak ko" Christian's one finger moved a bit and it did not escape from Lizzy.

"A-anak ko" she cried. "Kenneth, gumalaw ang daliri ni Christian" she stood up. She pressed the red button to notify the nurses and doctors.

Kenneth cried also. They are both crying while looking at their son. Christian's eyes slowly opened. His eyes are so tired. "Christ anak" she sobbed.

"I'm sorry, patawarin mo ako, anak" Lizzy held his hand. Her son looked at her and he used his full strength to reach her cheeks to swipe her tears.

That made Lizzy cried more. "I'm s-sorry, anak. P-please don't leave mommy, i love you so much" Christ just smiled at her and held her hand tight.
