Nginuya Ngunit Hindi Nilunok!!! [COMPLETED]

A Day in the Life: Rows

Pagdating ng ambulansya, agad na may lalapit na nurse kila Rows at Jisu. Bago nito igalaw si Jisu na hawak pa rin ni Rows, ay checheckin muna ni kuya nurse ang likod ni Jisu at ulo. Nung makita niyang wala namang kahit anong bukol o sugat, ihihiga niya ito sa sahig.

Nurse: You can let go now. Miss, it's okay. You can let her go. I got her... What's her name?

Rows: Her name is Jisu.

Makikita niya na dahan-dahang inaalog ng nurse si Jisu habang tinatawag ito.

Nurse: Jisu, can you hear me? Jisu?

Itatagilid ng nurse ang ulo ni Jisu at checheckin kung humihinga.

Rows: Is something wrong? Is she breathing?

Nurse: She's breathing... But there seems to be some difficulty.

Susubukan tumulong ni Rows habang nililipat si Jisu sa stretcher ngunit sasabihan siya ng mga nurse na hindi na kailangan. Pagkalipat kay Jisu sa ambulance bed ay papasok rin si Rows sa loob.

Nurse: May I know your name, Miss?

Rows: Roseanne Paras.

Nurse: Okay... Miss Roseanne, I'm gonna need you to tell me what happened before she collapsed.

Rows: I don't know...

Habang chinecheck ng nurse ang mga braso at leeg ni Jisu, tutulo ang luha sa mata ni Rows. Wala siyang alam. May inabot sa kanyang papel na kelangan niya ifill-up, tungkol sa mga sakit ni Jisu at mga allergy at kung anu-ano pa at nanginginig lang si Rows. Pagkayaring kabitan ng oxygen mask si Jisu ay susubukang tawagan ni Rows si Jenjie.

Rows: shit...

Nurse: What's wrong? Are you hurt somewhere?

Rows: I don't have any means of contacting anyone. I didn't buy a local sim.

Nurse: The hospital has wifi. Calm down... We're almost there.

Padabog na pagsisihan ni Rows na hindi siya bumili ng sim card sa airport kanina. Hahampasin niya ang sarili niya habang naiinis at nagagalit sa mga nangyayari.

Nurse: Hey... It's okay. She's going to be fine.

Rows: Bakit wala pa rin siyang malay, kuya? Comatosed ba siya?

Makikita ni Rows na hindi siya naintindihan nung nurse. Hindi rin kasi niya napansin na nagFilipino pala siya.

Rows: Why isn't she awake? Why won't she wake up? Is she comatosed?

Nurse: Well... Until the doctors check her, we won't really know what's wrong. She is unconscious, I am not sure why. What I do know is nothing is broken. I saw how you were holding her so I am assuming she didn't hit her head or anything when she lost consciousness.

Rows: She fell in my arms...

Nurse: That's good. She is also breathing-- which is also very good...

Mahahalata ni Rows na parang may gusto pang idagdag sabihin si kuya nurse kaso hindi nito tinutuloy.

Rows: Don't hold back. I need to know what to tell her family members.

Nurse: Well... Like I said earlier, her breathing is a bit... light... We refer to it as chest breathing. Normally we draw air through the lungs via the diaphragm. Like this.

Makikita ni Rows ang paggalaw ng dibdib ni kuya nurse habang humihinga ito. Titignan niya si Jisu at halos hindi gumagalaw ang dibdib nito.

Nurse: She's taking very shallow breaths through the muscles in her chest. Normally, breathing like that should be fast-paced to compensate for the short breaths. Like this.
