Chapter 33

Lumabas ng kwarto si Regina at nagulat siya  pagkabukas niya ng pinto

REGINA: What are you doing here baby? And why are you crying? *Sabay punas sa luha ni Thania*

THANIA: I heard everything Mom. Are you okay? Did he hurt you?

REGINA: Why didn't you proceed to your room? I'm okay don't worry baby.

THANIA: Let's go to my room for you to rest.

Kwarto

THANIA: Go on Mom, lay down and rest. I'll just get some food for you. I'll be back.

REGINA: Thank you baby.

THANIA: Anything for you, Mom. *Lumabas ng kwarto*

THANIA: Here's your food Mom and after that you need to drink your medicine, okay?

REGINA: Again? Can I not take my meds?

THANIA: Yes, again and again until you feel better. Nope! You need to drink this.

REGINA: Okay Doc!

THANIA: Mommy?!

REGINA: I'm just kidding baby. How about you? Did you ate your lunch?

THANIA: Not yet Mom. But I'll eat after you eat and take your meds. So that I can take downstairs those plate you used. And I wanna make sure that you drink your medicine.

REGINA: Naninigurado talaga ang baby ko ah.

THANIA: How are you feeling now Mommy? Feeling better now?

REGINA: Daddy mo ba kumain na?

THANIA: Can you please stop thinking others for a while Mom? Please focus on yourself na muna. Can't you see you're sick and still thinking others?! Daddy can take care of himself. Tita Liza is there for him!

REGINA: Pinagtutulakan mo na Daddy mo sa kaniya?

THANIA: No it's not that. My point is ---

REGINA: Shshshshs. I get your point. Kain ka na. Pagsaluhan na natin ‘to.

THANIA: That's for you. I'll be eating my meal later.

REGINA: Bawal po magpalipas ng gutom baby.

THANIA: I'll just get mine downstairs. Wait for me Mom, okay?

REGINA: Okay.

Few minutes ay bumalik agad si Thania na may dalang pagkain

REGINA: Let's pray. In the name of the father, and of the son, and of the holy spirit, Amen. Lord bless this food. May you always keep us safe. Give as strength and enlighten our minds. May we fix what is broken, soon. Amen.

THANIA: Amen. Let's eat. Soon Mommy, we will fix everything. For now, you need to get back your strength.

REGINA: I will baby.

Few minutes of eating.

THANIA: Are you done eating Mom?

REGINA: Yup! Thank you.

THANIA: I'll just put them downstairs Mom okay? You can rest now.

REGINA: Balik ka kaagad anak ha?

THANIA: Why? Are you afraid?

REGINA: Yes? Just come back immediately okay.

THANIA: I will.
