My Serendipity

23: Saudade

Alaia's pov:

Nag park na ako at inayos ko muna ang sarili ko, mugtong-mugto na kasi ang mga mata ko kakaiyak.

I got out of my car and went straight to the hospital. Kahit na masakit pa rin ang lahat ng nalaman ko ay mas pinili kong alisin muna iyon sa isip ko, she's more important than those lies they made me believed.

Nagtanong ako sa isang nurse kung saan ang room si Sia dahil posibleng tapos na ang operasyon niya sa mga oras na ito.

"Ma'am, there is no patient named Alessia Lonzillo admitted to the hospital." She turned her head to me nang wala siyang makita sa monitor, dito siguro nakalagay ang mga info ng mga pasyente nila.

I frowned trying to hide the panic in my eyes. "How is that possible? I was just here earlier, and she was undergoing surgery."

Tumingin siya ulit sa monitor ng computer at may chineck ulit doon. Nang matapos siya ay ay tumingin siya ulit sa akin.

"Miss Alessia was indeed operated on here, Ma'am. But after the surgery, she was transferred to another hospital. However, it was not indicated which hospital she was transferred to. I'm sorry po, yun na lamang po ang nalalaman ko."

Kahit nanginginig ay pinilit kong ngumiti at tumango sa nurse. After that, naglakad na ako palabas ng hospital. Nang makarating ako sa kotse ko, I immediately grabbed my phone to dial Rei's number.

My hand was on the steering wheel of my car, gently tapping my fingers on it. Rei was taking so long to answer, and I was losing my patience already.

"What? kakakuha ko lang sa phone ko-"

"Where the fuck is she?" I asked her, frustration was evident in my voice.

"They already left the country" I can hear the sadness in her voice.

"What country, Rei?" I desperately asked.

"I don't know, wala silang sinabi at biglaan nalang na umalis nang malaman ng Lolo niya ang lahat, he wanted to protect Sia, natatakot siyang baka tuluyan ng m-mawala si S-sia sakanya."

Tumulo nanaman ang mga luha ko dahil sa narinig. "H-how is she, Rei?" I asked, trying to stop myself from sobbing.

"S-she's in a c-coma" she answered, her voice cracked.

That's when I lost it. I immediately ended the call and broke down due to the overwhelming pain and regret.

It's been a week since they left.

wala pa rin akong balita, lahat ng mga kaibigan niya ay kinausap kona pero wala man lang silang maibigay na kahit kaonting impormasyon sa akin, i know they are lying, but who am I to get mad?

Isang linggo akong 'di lumabas, wala rin akong ganang pumasok at kumain.

I miss her so damn much.

I can't help but think of her, is she awake?
How is she? I wonder if she misses me? I wonder if she will still love me after everything that happened between us?

Is she coming back to me?

Baby, comeback to me please.

I am now infront of my parents, I am getting impatient na. they called me, telling me that they wanted to talk to me personally, pero ngayong nasa harapan nila ako ay hindi sila kumikibo at kahit tumingin lamang ay hindi nila magawa. My mother started crying the moment she saw me enter our house.
