Cattleya was discharge after few days, but her medical needs is still on going. May dextrose stand sa tabi niya, may benda pa rin ang ulo, at may maliit na tubo nanaman sa ilong niya na nagbibigay ng sapat na hangin para sa paghinga niya. Naka-confine siya, hindi sa ospital, kundi sa sarili niyang bahay.
"Tita?" Sambit ni Niccolo pantawag ng atensyon sa ina ni Cattleya.
"Yes, hijo?" Sang-ayon nito sa kaniya.
"Can I asked you something?" Niccolo said, looking at the state of his love, Cattleya, who is peacefully sleeping in her own bed. "About her?"
Sylvia, mother of Cattleya, sighed. "Outside,"
Pagkasarado ng pinto ng kwarto ni Cattleya ay naglakad siya papunta sa bakanteng kwarto na kung saan nandoon ang mga sining na gawa ni Cattleya. Sinundan siya ni Niccolo habang madaming mga tanong na hindi nasasagot pa rin ang bumabagabag sa kaniya.
When they reached the room, Sylvia sat at the chair, while Niccolo was left astounded.
"Nagulat ka pa sa lagay na yan?" Sylvia teased.
Niccolo shook his head and went near to her. Kumuha siya ng upuan at umupo medyo malayo sa kaniya.
Huminga ng malalim si Sylvia. "You see. Halos lahat ng mga paintings niya, related sa inyo." Ngiti nito sa binata. "And I can't do that piece. My deceased husband either." Amin nito.
"Eh?"
"That's the truth. But her dad taught her to draw with heart. Well, not literally." Tuloy pa nito. "She's a gifted."
"She is." Niccolo smiled, exploring his sight to the paintings. "She's an annoying too, loud, bossy, easy to get piss, amazon---"
"Sinisiraan mo ba ang anak ko sa harap ng magulang niya?" Putol sa kaniya nito at tinaasan ng kilay ang binata.
Niccolo smiled. "That's are some of things I do love from her." He sighed. "Pero bakit.."
"Bakit?" Naguguluhang tanong ni Sylvia sa kaniya.
"Bakit ganun siya? Ibig kong sabihin, bakit hanggang ngayon, kailangan pa niyang mag-suwero? Kailangan pang maglagay ng maliit na tubo sa ilong niya? Bakit kapag nabibisita ko siya sa ospital lagi na lang siyang nagsusuka, hindi maayos ang tulog, masakit ang ulo?" Naguguluhang mga tanong niya. Napaiwas na lamang ng tingin si Sylvia. "Now, I want to ask you," Niccolo looked straight to her. "What is really happening to her?"
Sylvia left silent. Not uttering any words but her flowing tears did. Hindi niya masabi kung ano ang sagot sa mga tanong ng binata.
"Why aren't you answering me?" He asked.
Sylvia was about to say something but then they heard a loud scream from the other room. Cattleya's room.
Nagpanic na sila at agad na tumayo at pinuntahan si Cattleya sa kwarto niya. Napatakip na lamang ng bibig si Sylvia sa nakita.
Her puke is all over her bed. There are some drops of blood too that actually came from her nose. Cattleya was sitting in her bed strengthlessly and her cannula was out of her nose.
"Oh, my!" Sylvia cried. "YAYA! YAYA! GO FIND FOUR PEOPLE TO HELP YOU CLEAN UP HERE! HURRY!" Sylvia panicked.
Niccolo hurriedly walked through her and sat beside her eventhough there were lots of vomits around them.
"Hey, are you okay? Do you want me to get you in the hospital?" He keep himself being calm.
"No. No, p-please. I don't want there. I-I don't want there.." Cattleya suddenly cried.
