Sarah woke up feeling numbed and with severe headache; she can’t even open her eyes. This will be a very busy day for her; Lord, Good morning, please give me the strength to complete all my appointments. I can not be sick, many are depending on me. Her phone rings… she answer it and hears the voice of her angel. Babe, are you okay, I can’t sleep sensing something is wrong with you, he said. Yes, Babe, I woke up with severe headache. Have you eaten last night ? You’ve had a full day last night so request for a break today, rest and relax. I’ll bring you some food, am on my way now.
Sarah was about to tell him that she has another busy day today, but he has already droped his call. But talking with him somehow alleviates the pain you had earlier. You tried to go back to doze a little, when you feel someone sit at the edge of your bed and smell something sweet and yummy. Then you felt someone kissing your forehead and smell Him. Good morning Babe, he said, and give you a smack on your lips.
Babe, you haven’t slept. Looked, touching gently his face, your eyebag is already visible. Then lean to touch his eyes with her lips. Then patted her side asking him to lie down beside him. He complied and rested his head in the pillow near her while putting her head on his chest. He cuddle her to him and gently caress her arms touching his chest. Babe, how I wish that everytime I sleep and wake up, you will be beside me. You looked at him and your eyes met speaking the words of love which you both feel for each other.
Then you said, you wish the same, and praying that that Time will come soon. You both keep quite and just remain holding each other and both drifted back to sleep. Mommy entered your room to tell you that breakfast is ready but when she saw you both sleeping, she just left silently and let you have the rare moment to rest knowing the challenges you have to face.
After an hour, Gerald woke up and smile seeing your lovely face still resting on his chest. My princess, how I wish we can be like this forever, but this is not yet the right time, we have to finish everything that we have previously committed ourself too, then we can be free to fulfill our personal dreams together. Just a few months away, princess. Just remember how much I love you and our love will surely see us through everything that we are facing now. He kissed her on her forehead and wake her up. Babes, it’s time to wake up, you have to eat to regain your strength. Then you touch her face, Babe, you have a slight fever, are you okay?
Yes, I felt okay, my headache is gone. Your kisses cure me from it. I just felt numbed but maybe I am just hungry. Okay daddy, making face at him, help me to get up, playfully acting like a little child. Please carry me, I can’t walk, laughing.
Hmmm.. my baby, come to daddy as he lifted her and assist her to he bathroom to freshen up. He left her there saying to call him if she finish doing her thing. Then he heard her call his name and heard her fall which made him ran inside the bathroom and saw her lying in the floor. He immediately lifted her and carries her, calling to her parents to ready the car and they will bring Sarah to the hospital. Gerald, calling her name, Babe, please wake-up, he was so worried, his princess looks so fragile.
Mommy assisted him as they change her clothes while trying to wake her, with the ammonia. They notice that she has fever, and then they immediately bring her to the car and proceeded to St. Lukes Global. Her doctor is already there when they got in and in the initial examination, she has to be confined; she suffered from over fatigue; the doctor put her in dextrose and given anti biotics. Mommy called the office and report trhe situation and requested that Sarah be given one week rest day to recuperate. Gerald stayed beside Sarah whispering his love and encouraging her to be strong. He can’t control his emotion which put tears in his eyes, he don’t want to see his princess like this, weak so helpless. If I can’t replace you in there (sick), I will be more tha willing. Babe, please get well soon. Sarah wake up and see Gerald’s pain and his apprehension. She touched his face and say “Sorry”, but please don’t be like that, I will be out of this bed after that one bottle. You know how I love my work and it serves as my catalyst to forget all the negative things happening now. But promise, I will behave and obey all your advices.
