Pagod na pagod ako at gusto ko pang matulog pero parang may nagsasabi sa kin na kailangan ko nang gumising. Before I passed out, I remember blood in between my thighs kaya bigla akong napamulat. Then I feel somebody holding my hand.
"Zeke?" Tamie
"Salamat naman at gising ka na. Ilang oras ka nakatulog ah?! Sandali lang ha tatawagan ko lang yung nurse" akala ko si Zeke, but I recognized, it wasn't him. It was Cyrus.
Haiii, I think, I should put in my head that he'll not be coming for me anymore. Ngayon pa na alam ko na rin kung ano sa kanya si Heleyna. Sa tingin ko, I need to let him go. He's not happy with me and he wouldn't be. i already figured out why his condo feels like it was being a home. Maybe Heleyna and Zeke has been living there. Zeke's always away, I should have realized earlier.
After a while ay bumalik na si Cyrus.
"Cy, what happened?" Ako
"You passed out kanina. I saw you sa lobby ng condo tower namin. Mamaya na lang natin pagusapan ang nangyari ha? Anong gusto mong kainin?" Cyrus
"kahit ano na lang Cy." ako
"Osige, I'll just order anything on a fastfood." Cyrus called the fastfood delivery
May pumasok na Doctor. She was pretty and beautiful.
"Hello. buti naman gising ka na. I am Dra. Kimberly Po. An ob-gyne." then she smiled. Lumapit sya sa akin then umupo sya sa bed side ko. " You look like Tanya a lot."
"You know my ate?" Tanong ko
"She holds a share here. And she's a friend back in highschool." Then she smiled
Nga pala, si ate na ang may hawak ng shares ni Mommy sa Medical City.
"So how are you feeling now? May masakit pa ba sa tummy mo?" she asked.
Niramdam ko. Wala naman. So umiling na lang ako.
"Good. So now, you need to listen carefully. First, I would like to congratulate you, you'll be a mommy soon. You are going 14 weeks pregnant." She said while smiling.
Automatic naman na hinwakan ko yung tyan ko. Napangiti ako. I'll be having a baby.
"Now, that's good. Mommy, please listen carefully ha? Kailangan mo ng maraming rest. You cannot do anything exhausting. You need to keep your self away from stress. We can't afford another slim tendency of miscarriage. Is this clear?" Tanong nya.
Then I nod.
"Okay, so be sure to eat fresh and nutritious foods. Bawal ang diet ngayon okay?" Tanong ulit ni Doc
"Opo. Thank you po Dra. Po" ako
"You don't need to be formal. I am your Ate's friend. Anyway, nobody knows who you are here. Pinapalitan ko yung name mo kase baka magleak ang info about your pregnancy. Your family is known in the city and it may bring stress to you kapag nalaman ng mga tao. By the way, bukas ka pa pwedeng umuwi. " Dra
I smiled again and thank her. After she left kumain na muna kami. Isipin nyo yun, I am pregnant for more than 3 months nang hindi ko napapansin. Gosh! Siguro kaya din ako ganun ka-emotional. I think, I need to be stronger. Hindi muna ako aalis hanggat hindi ko pa nasasabi sa kanya. Me staying on his life depends on how he'll accept my baby. But for now, I will own this solely.
Sinabi ko lahat kay Cyrus ang nangyari. he was so furious about Zeke and Heleyna. Pinigilan ko na lang sya at nakiusap ako na h'wag nyang sasaktan si Zeke. At kung galit sya kay Zeke, doble doble ang galit nya sa kapatid nya. Yes, sa kapatid nya. Chester is his brother and Cyrus is my cousin. Silang dalawa ni Chester ang parang naging kapatid ko na nung lumaki ako. Dati kasi, sila Cyrus, nakatira sila malapit sa bahay namin at iniiwan sya sa bahay namin kapag lihim na nakikipagkita si Uncle Charles (Dad nila Chester at Cyrus) sa Mommy ni Cyrus. Mommy ni Cyrus ang totoong mahal ni Uncle Charles pero dahil sa lecheng tradition na yun, dun sya sa Mommy ni Chester naipakasal. Pero kahit ganoon, nagpatuloy pa din yung pagmamahalan ng parents ni Cyrus. Cyrus was an illegitimate child.
Sa buong angkan ng Mommy ko, iba ang tingin nila kay Cyrus. at sa lahat ng pinsan namin, ako lang ang nagmamahal at tumanggap ng buo kay Cy. He was so kind and lovable. Sya na yung naging kapatid ko sa mahabang panahon. Gusto ko sana syang kasama sa school pero ayaw nila Ama (Lola) dahil daw baka maiskandalo lang si Chester. Okay naman ang samahan nila Chester at Cyrus, they were actually cool. Yun nga lang si Chester, he's a brat. lahat kasi ng gusto nya nakukuha at nagagawa nya.
"Baby Tam, pahinga ka na ha? Ayokong magkaroon ng pamangking pangit." Cyrus
"Opo na Kuya." Ako
"hey! I told you not to call me Kuya! Mas matanda ka sa akin!" Cyrus
"Ang kapal mo ah?! Pero Cy, paano kung ayaw ni Zeke? " Ako
"Pssssh. Oo na kuya na nga. Anyway, wag ka nang magpakastress ha? Ako nang bahala sa'yo. I'm always here. Ako na lang magaalaga sa'yo. Sa inyong dalawa ng magiging baby mo. Hindi ako papayag na may bata na namang ipapanganak na walang amang magmamahal. If Zeke can't give that, ako na lang." Cyrus
"Thank You Cy. I love you. Salamat." Ako
"Shhh. Wala yun. I am your brother diba? Sabi mo yun dun sa playmates natin nuon diba? So don't worry.And I love you more Baby Tam. Sige na pahinga ka na. Andito lang ako." Cyrus
I wondered how my baby will look like. 3 months of being pregnant, ang bait ng baby ko, ni hindi man lang ako nahirapan, hindi ko man lang naramdaman na naglilihi ako. Baby, thank you for being with Mama, thank you for being strong. Ngayon na alam ko nang anjan ka, si Mama naman ang lalaban para sa atin. I'll tell your Papa the soonest baby, whatever his answer will be, Mama's love will never change. Mahal kita anak ko. I sleep caressing my tummy.
"Good night baby bump. I'll see you soon. I love you."
