Broken Strings

Special Track 1

Gabby's POV

"Gabyyyyyyyyyyy!!!!!!!!!"

Napabalikwas ako ng bangon. Anong nangyayari?

Shit! Shit! Si Hailey!

Dali-dali akong bumaba ng kama at hinanap ang asawa ko. I frozed when I saw her sitting on the couch with blood and some liquid flowing in her leg.

"My God Gabby! Tatayo ka na lang ba?!!! Mauuna ka pa yata na mahimatay sakin!"

That's my wake up call. Binuhat ko na si Hailey then immediately went to our garage. Pinasakay ko muna siya sa passenger seat.

"Hold on sweetheart, be strong". Tumango naman siya then I kissed her on the forehead assuring her that everything will be okay. Hinawakan ko din ang tyan nya. Hold on little champ, huwag mong pahirapan si mommy.

Nagmamadali ako na tumakbo sa driver's side. I start the ignition at nilabas ang kotse. Mukha namang walang traffic kaya makakarating kami ng Holy Cross Hospital for about 20 minutes.

"God sweetheart, buti na lang pala at nasa bahay na ako. Ayaw mo kasi kumuha tayo ng maid kaya lagi ka mag-isa sa bahay. Paano na lang kung-"

"Jeez Gabby, now is not the time to arg- Aghhhhhh!!!!! FASTER!!! JUST DRIVE OKAY??!!!!!"

I just nodded. God, that must've been hurt dahil nakahawak siya sa kanyang tiyan.

I parked the car sa tapat ng emergency. Nag-mamadali akong bumaba to call their attention.

"Nurse, bring a stretcher manganganak na ang asawa ko and call Doc Marie"

"Yes, Doc Gabby".

Good thing about here is laging alerto ang mga nurses at doctor. I went back to the car at binuhat na si Hailey when I saw the stretcher.

I carefully placed her on it. The nurses assisted her to the delivery room.

"You'll both be okay". I kissed her one last time bago siya dinala sa delivery room. Saktong pag-pasok naman niya sa loob ay ang pag-dating ni Marie.

"Oh Gosh! please wear some decent clothes please, you're in the hospital" Inikutan pa niya ako ng mata.

That's when I realized na naka-boxer lang pala ako. Whew!

"Kuya, I'm here now, Hindi ko papabayaan si ate Hailey, so go to your office, dress up, dahil nakakadistract ka and your abs!"

Nakatingin na kasi lahat samin kaya nahiya naman ako. I went up to my office to change. Buti na lang at may spare clothes ako. I called Tonia to get the baby clothes and Hailey's clothes as well sa bahay. Lastly, I called her family and mine to tell the good news.

It's been 2 hours pero according to Marie ay nag-lalabour pa din daw si Hailey. So I decided to went in at samahan na siya.

I wear some scrub suit then went inside. I saw her in the operating bed. She's sweating hard, pale, and you can see in her eyes that she's in pain.

"Hey, sweetheart, I'm here now". Pinupunsan ko siya ng pawis sa noo.

"God Gabby!! Di ka na talaga makaka-ulit. No sex for 2 years!"

WTF! I know she just said that because of the situation.

"Sweetheart nam-". She cut me off.

"Ikaw kaya manganak!!!"

Whew! Guys, she's definitely mad. Let's talk less lol.

"Stop stressing her Kuya". It's Marie. Naka-scrub suit na rin siya. All were ready dahil anytime lalabas na si baby.
