Feels like Heaven

Chapter 14

Alesha's PoV

Warm air strikes my face, it's so sweet that I can not help it but to follow. Napamulat ako ng mata ng nawala ang mabangong hangin na nasisinghot ko. Pagdilat ko ay puro puti ang nakikita ko, lumingon ako sa kanang bahagi ko para tignan kung puti din ba iyon pero hindi, kita ko dito ang isang high desk at isang mahabang sofa. I turned to the left and saw a man's head, it's blur so I did not see the face of the man I was looking at but I smell the perfume.

It was versace eros.

"Aeris?" Siya kaagad ang nabanggit ng bibig ko dahil sakanya ko lang naamoy ang pabangong iyon.

"Jesus! How are you?" He said in a worried voice.

"Fine. I'm a little dizzy."

"Should I call a doctor?" tatayo na siya pero pinigilan ko siya sa braso.

I'm hungry. I will say it to him but instead of saying that, my stomach grumbling.

He chuckled and gave me the paper bag, "Here. It's congee and pasta."

Ilinabas ko kaagad ang mga iyon at nanuot sa ilong ko ang amoy nito. It's smell famillar—

"Is this a porridge?" I asked.

"Yeah. Why? You don't like porridge?" he sounded shady.

"No. No," Umiling kaagad ako, "actually, i love porridge."

Sa totoo lang, hindi ko naman as in 'love' 'to pero hindi ko naman sinabing kaya hindi ko ito 'love' dahil masama ang lasa. I just accepted it because I saw it in my brain as I lost consciousness.

But speaking of which, na saan na 'yong mag ina kanina. Mag sasalita na sana ako ng magsalita si Aeris na para bang nabasa niya ang tanong sa utak ko dahil iyon kaagad ang sinabi niya.

"Yung mag-ina kanina, siguro nasa aboretum pa sila. And, uhm, the boy's mother— the one who called you in your name— help me to bring you here in hospital." aniya habang hinahanda ang porridge na kakainin ko.

Napa-'ahh' lang ako sa sinabi niya, "Aeris, bakit pala nandito ako sa ospital? Bakit hindi nalang sa hotel mo 'ko dalhin?"

Nahimatay lang naman ako. It might not have been so serious to bring me here and wield a lot of wires in my head.

But before Aeris spoke, someone knock in the door and it released a nifty man that was wearing a white coat. God! Ang bango pa nito!

Ngumiti ito saakin, "Hi, patient, Alesha. I'm your doctor, Dr. McGillvray" naglahad ito ng kamay saakin.

I would have accepted it but Aeris pulled out his hand and docked out of the room therefore my hand was left in the air.

"Pleasure to meet you, Doc" humagikhik na dagdag ko.

Binilisan ni Aeris ang paghigit kay Doc kaya hindi ko na narinig ang sinabi ng doctor.

My tummy grumble again so I looked at the food prepared by Aeris. Kumalam ang sikmura ko ng malanghap ko ang amoy ng lugaw— pero sabi ni Aeris ay congee ito. May dalawang pasta dito at tubig. Mukhang kay Aeris yun kaya hindi tinabi ko muna.
