Dear Lovebeat

Chapter 18

"Mommyyyy!" Masayang tawag ni Seirril sakanyang ina. Napangiti naman si Seirra.

"Seirril! I missed you, baby." Masayang sabi ni Seirra, sabay yakap ng mahigpit sa anak. Miss na miss niya kasi ito.

"I missed you too, mommy. How are you now?" Seirril asked her mother. Seirra smiled.

"I'm a little better now, baby." Nakangiting sagot nito sa anak.

"Daddy! Mommy's feeling a little better now. Is that bad or good thing?" Inosenteng tanong ni Seirril sa ama. Napatingin naman si Seirra kay Rain.

"That's a good thing baby. And it would be much better if she get well soon." Saad ni Rain habang nakatingin ng deretso sa mata ni Seirril.

"Of course mommy will get well soon, right mommy?" Seirril said and faced her mom.

"Yes baby, mommy will get better sooooon enough." Seirra said and gestured a nose-to-nose with Seirril. Seirril giggled.

"Seirril how'd you-Oh.Wilson, naandito ka pala. Seirra." Jarred said as he entered the room.

"Jarred." Tawag ni Seirra at nagets naman ni Jarred yun.

"Alright. Come baby, let's go to the garden." Jarred said and carried Seirril then left the room.

Silence. The room was filled with silence, until Rain spoke.

"Why didn't you tell me?" Rain asked with disappointment in his voice.

"What for? Mamamatay din naman ako, bat di pa paagahin." Balewalang sabi ni Seirra.

"Don't say that. You'll get well soon. You just need to undergo operation. How about Seirril? Why didn't you tell me about her?" Wilson said.

"I was about to tell you about my pregnancy, but you broke up with me. So, I didn't bother telling you, plus the fact that you already have a girlfriend after our break up. Besides, I was scared that you wouldn't accept it, so I just kept silent. But then, kuya can't resist and told you everything. Ugh." Seirra said out of frustration.

"Your brother did the right thing. But still, we met again after 2 years right? Why didn't you tell me about it?" Rain asked again.

"Look, I asked you if you were willing to accept it if we had our baby. But you kept silent. Meaning you can't, so I just shut my mouth and didn't told you about it." Seirra said, irritated.

They kept silent for minutes. Until he spoke again.

"Sorry." Rain apologized.

"You don't need to. It was my fault. I wasn't thinking." Seirra said while looking down.

"No. It was my fault, if only I was man enough to fullfil my obligations and responsibilities to you two years ago, then maybe everything is smooth between us." Rain regretfully said. Seirra kept silent.

"Let me make it up to you and to out daughter." Rain said and held her hand. Sei smiled and nodded.

Hour passed and Seirra fell asleep while holding Rain's hands. Rain smiled as he stared at Seirra.

"Ehem. You still love her, right?" A voice disturbed his moment.

"What are you saying, Jarred?" Rain said and looked away.

"Hahaha. In denial." Jarred laughed.

"W-whatever you say. I'm just going to buy some food. I'll be back." Rain said and left the room.

Jarred was left there, and he was laughing. He stared at his sister and he smiled. He went near her and held her hand.

"You'll be happy soon. Soon." Jarred said while smiling and kissed Seirra on her forehead.
