Love Story of Best Friend [Complete]

Chapter 9: Sorry

When I was walking through the halls of the hospital to check on one of my patients, nakasalubong ko si doc. I had clearly forgotten about him and our argument. Ngayon ko lang naalala na may tampuhan nga pala kami. I just walked past him. Hindi ko nga siya pinansin. Pero hinawakan niya ko sa may wrist stopping me.

“What?” sabi ko na medyo nagtataray. Medyo badtrip pa rin kasi ako sa kanya eh.

“Can we just talk?” sabi niya,

“We have nothing to talk about.” sabi ko sa kanya.

“Look, I’m sorry. I was just….” sabi niya, pleading.

“I have some things to do. I have a patient waiting up for me. I don’t have time for this right now.” sabi ko cutting his sentence short.

“But this is important.” sabi niya.

“My patient’s life is more important. So please lang. Wag ngayon.” sabi ko tapos I got my hand back and continued on my way to my patient’s room. Wala na siyang nagawa and just looked at me.

For the rest of the day, iniwasan ko si doc. I’m not yet ready to talk to him. When I finished my shift I went to the shop to get my car, sa wakas natapos din ung car ko.

I drove safely home and had peace on my mind. Actually, I was thinking about pare all through out the day. I don’t know, maybe he’s the reason why I had a smile on my face all day kahit na sobrang stressed na ko sa hospital. Ikaw ba naman makatikim ng ganung kasarap na breakfast diba?

When I got home, there were rose petals everywhere leading to my door step... tapos dun sa may doorstep ko, nakalagay "SORRY" spelled in rose petals, tapos my bouquet ng red roses sa tabi tapos my letter. Pag pasok ko sa house, binasa ko yung letter, it was from doc. He was saying sorry and all... sa baba ng letter, nakalagay, look outside your window.

So, lumabas na nga ako. He came up to me and gave me the flowers and all the ballons. Tahimik muna kami nung una. Alangan naming ako una magsalita eh siya yung may dapat sabihin diba? Basta ako lumabas ako para makinig sa explanation niya at tumanggap ng mga peace offerings niya.

“Uhmm, hon?!” sabi nya with his head down.
