VIRAL INFECTION

LUKE'S POV

I was startled when the door swung open at iniluwa ang isang babae mula sa pintuan. May susi ito kaya malamang ay kamag anak ni Pepper.

''Hi'' Bati sa kanya ng babae. Napatayo siya bilang paggalang dito.

''Akala ko magisa lang si Pepper dito sa bahay, she said she's sick.'' ani ng babae.

''Hi Miss! My name's Luke!" Pakilala ko sabay lahat ng kamay.

''I know! Sikat ka sa school! I am Dayzy, One of the 4 Bestfriends of Pepper! I suppose the sick Lady is in bed?'' Buhay na buhay niyang sabi.

''How's she?'' Dugtong pang tanong nito.

''May sumpong!'' Tanging nasagot ko kaya tumawa ito.

''She has got the temperature this morning nasa 39.7 then she was chillin'! Pero bumaba na ang lagnat niya as of 1 pm''

''Ok, I 'll go check her out! Are you coming?'' She asked me.

''No, Listen Dayzy, I've an urgent meeting at 5pm and Pepper knows it, pinagtatabuyan na nga ako kanina pa kasi ok na daw siya! Can you stay with her until I get back?'' pakiusap ko.

''Ohhh sure! sure! Magkapitbahay lang naman kami! You can go!" The woman said kaya nagpaalam na ako, nasa sasakyan na ako nang magtext si B.

Miss B: Hey Boss where are you?

Ako: I am on my way B, kita nalang tayo sa meeting place.

Miss B: I've brought the docs with me. Mr Santos is also on his way already, see you!

DAYZY'S POV

Agad kong inakyat si Pepper nang makaalis si Luke.

''Bruuuuu! I am here How are you feeling!'' I yelled habang nasa hagdanan palang ako.

''Masakit ang tyan ko bru! Nasusuka ako'' She sounded in pain at nang makita ko siya ay agad ko siyang sinapo.

''Wait ang init mo Bru,, nasaan ang thermometer mo?'' I asked her

''Nasa side table''

''OMG! 40 ang BT mo! Halika sa bathtub!'' I said and helped her stand up. I have to bath with cold water to cool her down. Napag aralan ko na ang SOP dahil medicine student naman ako. After giving her medicines ay ganon parin ang temperature niya so I called Luke and we decided to take her in the hospital.

''Bru dalhin ka na namin sa hospital, tinawagan ko na si Luke, he is on his way back! Ire-ready ko lang mga gamit mo na pwede dalhin just in case ma confine ka.'' I woke her up.

''Kailangan pa ba nating magpa ospital pa?'' She asked.

''OO, di lang simpleng lagnat ang meron ka!'' I said at nahihirapang itinayo siya nang bumungad si Luke sa pintuan.

PEPPER'S POV

''Good morning sleepyhead!'' Luke's neat face greeted me.

''L-Luke?'' I asked kasi si Dayzy naman ang alam kong kasama ko kagabi.

''How are you feeling?''

''Ok na ako. Salamat! Nasaan si Dayzy?''

''Pinauwi ko na kagabi kasi may pasok pa siya today!''

Tumango nalang ako.
