Fere's POV
I open my eyes and see the white ceiling and white painted walls. My heart suddenly beat faster. No! not here. Not again. I felt so weak but I was able to move my hands to my tummy and felt relieved when I touched it and knew it was bigger than the last time.
I smiled. My baby's alive and maybe I'd been off too long. My tummy's big now. It's pretty obvious. I wonder how Yuseff reacted upon knowing.
"Ate?"
I saw my baby sister. Tears then fell on her eyes.
"Ate! Gising ka na! Ate!!!"
"Shhh. Baby Faye, okay na si Ate."
"Ate, wag mo ako iiwan. Di ko pala kaya Ate."
"Shhhh. Hindi po. Sorry na po. Asan nga pala ang kuya mo at si Yugi?"
"Ate, sorry."
"Bakit ka ba nagsosorry ha?"
"Ate, nasabi ko po lahat lahat kay Kuya."
I smiled at my sister. Maybe it's really time he should know things that happened.
"Anong sabi ni Kuya mo?"
"He was pained. Until now Ate, he's still hurting. He never left your side. Umalis lang sya ngayon kasi he visited Yuan's grave. It's been 6 years now."
I suddenly thought of my Yuan. In my slumber, I saw a happy Yuan all in white happily playing with the angels. He was so like Yugi when he's excited. He jumps a lot. And he looks like Yuseff. I know my Yuan is happy where ever he is. Maybe, today's the right time to let him live in peace.
"Faye, pakitawag naman ng doctor. Tapos ikuha mo ako ng food. I need to go to Yuan and I want to see Yuseff."
Faye willingly oblige. The doctor at first did not allow me but because I am a Hernandez and Patchie helped me pull some strings, we have a clearance to go out for 5 hours. A nurse was required to accompany me.
Patchie told me Yugi went home already. It's only Yuseff who stayed.
I saw from where I stand how Yuseff cried hard. I even felt the pain he's feeling right now. He seems to be too broken.
I slowly make my way near my husband, there where our child lies. He was pleading to our child not to get me first. He was begging to let me be with him first.
"Hindi nya pa ako isasama kasi gusto nya, mabuo tayo. Mahal ka rin ng anak mo Papa."
"Wife!!"
He stood up and hugged me tight. Sobrang higpit na parang ayaw na nya akong pahingahin.
"Hub, ano ka ba naman, naiipit si Baby, magagalit ang mga Kuya nya sa'yo."
"Are you real?" He asked
"Can a ghost be as hot as me? Hub, alam kong malaki ako ngayon pero aminin mo, hot and sexy pa rin ako! Hahaha." I joked at him
Masyado nang maraming drama ang nangyari. Okay na siguro yun. All I want now is happiness and contentment.
"Oh Good Lord! Thank You. My wife's here. She's with me."
Bumitaw muna ako sa pagkakayakap sa asawa ko at lumuhod sa puntod ng anak ko.
"Baby, nagkakilala na pala kayo ni Papa mo ano? Iyakin sya diba?"
Yuseff sat beside me and snake his arm on my waist.
"Baby, thank you for letting me see how happy you are now. I know you have forgiven us for not being able to gave you a better life. Anak, Mama loves you so much. And I know, it's time to let you go."
Tears fell on my eyes.
"I love you anak. You will always have a part of my heart. Mahal na mahal ka ni Mama but I need to let you be happy where ever you are. Thank you anak, thank you for being with Mama in my hardest days. Thank you for letting me have you even for awhile. I love you so much."
"You've been my source of strength. You've been someone I leaned on to. Thank you baby. Mama loves you so much. Please be happy now anak. No more grief, no more tears. Just pure love and happiness. Mahal na mahal kita Baby. Mahal ka namin ni Papa."
Sabi ko then I hold Yuseff's hand. Both of us are crying now. But these tears are tears that will let our baby have a better life in heaven. We are now releasing all the grief, anger and hatred we had. It's time that all of us will be happy.
We just stayed for some more hours nung lumapit ang nurse para sabihing kailangan na naming bumalik sa hospital. Yuseff is holding me like a porcelaine doll.
"Hub, ano ka ba. Holding hands na lang tayo, kaya ko pa naman maglakad. Hindi pa naman ganun kabigat ang baby natin."
"As much as I want to wife, but it's a lot safer if I hold you like this."
I just smiled at him. My Yuseff is back. Mine and mine alone.
"I love you Hubby."
"I love you more Wife."
He kissed me swiftly then we head back to the hospital.
