After almost 3 weeks in hospital, RJ was finally ready to be discharged. But because of the extent of injuries he suffered from the accident, he had to be in a wheelchair and assisted. He hated the idea of being fussed over by everyone. He would offer a weak smile to anyone who greeted him.

"Love, ready ka na umuwi?" Maine asked one afternoon when she arrived at the hospital after running some errands and talking with the doctors.

RJ beamed and extended his arms for a hug.

Maine hugged him gently as his ribs were still healing. He would stiffen up a bit when someone touched his chest and torso. She knew he was still in pain and uncomfortable.

"Yes!! Kelan?" His voice, excited.

"If not tomorrow, the next day...kakakausap ko lang sa Doctors mo.."

"Di ba pwedeng now na?" He said pouting, being her bibi boy.

She sat beside him, facing him. She reached over to tussle his hair.

"Di pa po...malapit naman na e, baby ko..." She gave him a reassuring look and kissed him on the lips.

In 2 days, he was finally discharged. But having him travel all the way home to Laguna wasn't a good idea. Besides, his Lolo also needed much care so Tito Rich decided that RJ first stay at his condo in QC with Mama Ten and April. He would also visit daily and call regularly. Maine would also come by everyday and stay until he slept at night.
