ENDLESS JOURNEY OF LOVE

CHAPTER 43

Christian's

"So, as expected, she lost her memories for the time being." the doctor said as he play with his ballpen.

"So, okay na siya?" I worriedly asked.

"No." seryoso niyang sabi na ikinagulat namin ni Eljon.

"From what Patrick Clicker told me before, she's been suffering a small brain injury since the car accident she had before this accident. Nang ma-encounter niya ang mahulog mula sa 35 feet, na-damage ang skull niya causing to increase her traumatic brain injury. I don't wanna give hopes dahil walang nakakasurvive sa brain injury unless na aalagaan niyo siya ng maayos. For now.." he paused at may kinuha siya na papel and he started writing something there. "I will recommend an Anti-drug seizures cause she's going to experience some seizure on the first week after waking up from coma while having that injury. Hindi pa siya pwedeng umalis ng hospital. She need to go through rehabilitation dahil hindi agad-agad makikisama ang katawan niya sa kanya ngayon after that 6 years coma." he explained.

"Sinasabi mo ba na balang araw... Lez is not safe anymore dahil sa sakit niya?" Eljon asked.

"To be honest,... yes."

•

"Ano gagawin ko dito?" Lez asked as I place some notebooks of her writings sa kanyang overbed table.

"That's your notebook and your writings. The doctor said you will be having a trouble in writing so,.." I placed another notebook na malaki. "Rewrite them as a practice."

"Lahat to'?" she said as she scan the notebooks. "Yes." I answered.

"Magsusulat lang ba ako kahit matapos ko to'?" she worriedly asked. How cute. It's like I'm talking to a kid.

"Kahit hindi mo matapos yan and you can write properly na, okay na. Besides, hindi lang naman yan ang gagawin mo. You need to learn to walk also."

"Bakit naman?"

Umupo ako sa higaan niya and held her hand. "Listen, you woke up from being in a coma for 6 years. Hindi mahalaga ang dahilan. We just want you to recover and be back to normal. Kapag ready ka na, kahit hindi pa bumalik alaala mo, we will tell you everything."

While I was explaining, she was just staring at me and gaze her eyes to the ballpen. Kinuha niya yun at saka siya nagsimulang magsulat. After writing the first letter, I smiled. It seems like mapapadali ang recovery niya. I saw her being serious so it would be better na iwan ko nalang siya muna. I stood up and hindi pa ako nakakalayo sa kanya when she asked something.

"Ano relasyon nating dalawa?"

Inikot ko ulo ko until I met her eyes. "Parang hindi naman ata tayo magkaibigan lang?"

I smiled. "For now, I'm your knight-in-shining-armor."

After saying those words, lumabas nako ng room niya at iniwan ko siya. Nakita ko agad si Albea na nakatayo sa di kalayuan.

•

"How could you do this to me? Alam mo bang Avery dethrones me from my own company? Pagkatapos mong pabayaan ang kumpanya ko, pababayaan mo na rin ba ako? Explain everything, Christian!" galit na galit niyang sabi sakin.

I was just staring at her coldly while she was saying those words. "Albea." I called. "I don't care about that damn company anymore. Nagstepdown na ako at binigay ko na siya kay Avery. You're on your own now."

Nagulat ako nang bigla niya akong kwelyuhin as if na gangster talaga ang dating niya. "For 6 years... For 6 years living as your wife and serving you, hindi ka manlang ba nagkaroon ng feelings sakin?"
