WHO'S THE BOSS?!

106. THOSE EYES

Edward immediately called Maymay's Doctor and informed them of the miracle they saw.

The Doctor checked on Maymay as soon as he got into the room.

He's pinching her toes and her hand to see if they will be getting a reaction from her just as like what Edward saw.

The doctor finds what Edward said impossible as he was just about to say that Maymay might not make it in a week.

'Doc, believe me. The nurse and I witnessed it. She's still with us. She's still fighting.' Sabi ni Edward sa Doctor.

As oppose to what Edward said, the doctor ain't seeing any changes to Maymay's condition.

Her vitals are better than when he had left but there is still no movement.

'Edward I'm sorry pero mukhang wala namang pagbabago.' Sabi nito.

'No Doc. I swear. I saw it. The nurse saw it. I'm not making it up.' Sabi nito.

Nagkataon lang na umalis na ang nurse para ibalik ang kambal sa nursery.

'I get how much you want to see her condition improving.' Sabi ng Doctor. 'But in truth Edward, that's not going to happen soon from the looks of it. We don't know for sure so please take a rest. Sleep. She needs you to be at your best.'

Akala ata mg Doctor ay nababaliw na si Edward.

'Trust me and what we saw Doc.' Ani Edward.

'How can I?!' Sabi naman ng Doctor.

'You'll see. I'll wake her up. She's too strong to give up.' Paninindigan ni Edward.

Napapikit na lamang ng mariin ang doktor sa sinabi ni Edward. Tinapik tapik niya ito sa balikat at saka pinisil.

'I don't want to give you false hopes Edward.' Ani to.

'Mas masakit yun at hindi mo yun kailangan lalo na may dalawang anak kang kailangang protektahan.'

'Well, if you don't believe she'll make it then she have me. I'll continue to believe in her.' Sabi nito.

'You can leave now and close the door once your out.' Saka niya tinalikuran ang doktor at bumalik sa tabi ni Maymay.

Una ay nakatayo lamang si Edward habang pinagmamasdan ang mukha ng asawa.

Despite all the apparatus attached to her, he still finds her beautiful pero naaawa siya sa estado nito.

Pilit niyang pinipigilan ang pagpatak ng luha kaya napapakagat labi na lamang siya at halukipkip.

Hinaplos niya ang ulo nito bago naupo sa tabi ng asawa.

'Wag kang mag-alala love, I never once lost faith in you. I believe in you. I believe in the love you have for me and I believe in the love you have for the twins. Yun ang magiging lakas mo to get back to us. Ha? Be strong for us Love huh.'

Saka nito hinalikan sa pisngi ang asawa.

Hindi na malaman ni Edward kung ano pa ang gagawin dahil ayaw niyang isipin na dadating ang panahon na kailangan niyang mabuhay magisa ng wala ang asawa. Hindi niya kayang isipin na lalaki ang dalawang anak niya ng walang ina at mas lalong hindi niya kayang isipin na kung magkagayun man ay isasama ni Maymay ang puso niya sa pagpanaw nito.

'How is she anak?' Tanong ni Lorna na hindi namalayan ni Edward na nakapasok na pala.

Hindi siya agarang nakasagot.
