Loving Strangers (COMPLETED)

Chapter 11

( Cassandra's P.O.V )

"how was your date?" tanong ni mama lola

umaga na kami nakauwi ni Faricka

ngumiti ako remembering what happened last night

"I got the answer already, can I ask you something?" tanong ni mama lola

"anything" sabi ko

"let's have a date, me and you only" sabi ni mama lola

kaya pumayag ako

nag paalam ako kay Faricka na papasyal kami ni mama lola

sakto lang din kasi may practice si Faricka ngayon

"ang ganda ng ngiti mo ngayon, dapat ganyan lang lagi ha" sabi ni mama lola

sinusubuan ko si mama lola ng melon

"well it's because of you mama" sabi ko

"and Faricka" sabi niya

"well I love her, but I love you the most mama" sabi ko tapos niyakap ko siya

"well take good care of her, you're each others pain killer" sabi niya

"you're my happy pill mama" sabi ko

"you'll always be my baby Sandra" sabi ni mama lola

inaayos na namin yung mga gamit ni Kris, para makauwi na kami

"mama Carmen are you okay?" tanong ni Kris kay mama lola

"mama why?" tanong ko

hindi maayos yung upo ni mama lola sa wheelchair nya at nakahawak sa tyan

"manong can you make it fast" sabi ni Kris na nakaalalay kay lola

mabilis pinasok sa ER si mama lola

"shhh, ma'am don't cry" sabi ni Kris

pero di ako umimik

pinipilit kong silipin kung anong nangyayari sa loob pero di ako pinapayagan ng doctor

I saw Faricka running

niyakap niya ako agad

"tahan na" sabi niya habang nakayakap sa akin, tapos hinalikan niya ako sa forehead

"inom ka muna ng tubig" sabi pa niya tapos binuksan niya yung bote

"Faricka, I'm not losing her, right?" tanong ko

"you'll never lose mama cause she's always here" sabi niya sabay turo sa puso ko

maya maya lumabas na yung doctor

"we're doing everything we can, you can go inside, but she's very weak" sabi ng doctor

I saw mama lola with an oxygen

she is trying her best to smile

I smile back

"You'll be fine Sandra" sabi ni mama

"Faricka, yung usapan natin ha" sabi ni mama habang nakatingin kay Faricka

"opo, basta please mag pagaling pa kayo" sabi ni Faricka

ngumiti ulit si mama lola

"mama please don't do this to me" garalgal ng boses ko

then we heard a long beep

indication that the vitals are flat

I hugged mama lola tight

"mama please no!" sigaw ko

si Faricka nakahawak sa balikat ko

"ma'am excuse me" sabi ng isang doctor

chineck nya yung pulse ni mama lola

a umiling siya

check her watch

"time of death 17:03" sabi ng doctor

and that was the last thing I heard before I collapsed
