Chapter 42: Please Save Her

Bryan's POV

I was so worried for her kaya mas binilisan ko pa ang takbo ng sasakyan ko. Mabuti na lang at hindi traffic.

I ordered the hospital pagkaabot namin na tingnan agad si Amber. She was unconscious now kaya I'm so worried. I bit my finger nails because of uneasiness.

I should call Tita Angeline about this. I dialled her number and after a few rings she answered her phone.

[Hello?] she answered with her cheery voice

I hesitated to tell her Amber's situation given that she was having a good day based on her cheerful voice.

I sighed and stopped my tears from flowing.

"Tita......." I called out to her like a lost child looking for her Mom

[Bryan? What happened dear? Are you alright?] she asked with her soft motherlike voice

"I'm..... I'm in the hospital po Tita" I finally said and she gasped behind the line

[Are you hurt dear? Anong nangyari?!] she asked probably panicking with the fact na nasa hospital ako

"Si Amber po....." was the only thing I could mutter and cried right after

I was vulnerable at the moment at wala akong alam na gawin kung di ang umiyak. Well what can I do? My love is in the emergency room right now at hindi ko alam kung ano ba ang resulta.

[Text me the address of the hospital and I'll meet you there, Bryan dear]

Tita Angeline said and ended the call. I texted her what she wanted and then sat helplessly.

I held onto my forehead and sighed. Should I call Mom and Dad too? Mukhang kailangan ko kasi ng tulong dito. I am losing every inch of insanity in me. I think I might go crazy sitting here alone. I am barely holding onto myself.

I was disappointed with myself. Ako ang rason kung bakit nagkaganoon si Amber. If I didn't told her to be with me in that treasure hunt hindi sana siya mapapagod. Her heart won't react that way kung hindi siya napagod.

Napakabobo mo Bryan Villegas! Napakabobo!

"Bryan! Bryan dear. Why sre you hitting yourself? Stop it" Tita Angeline said and held onto my hands to precent me from hitting myself

"It's...... it's my fault Tita. Ako ang may kasalanan kung bakit naospital si Amber. I should be the one to blame of what happened to her!" I blurted out and I did not care kung tumitingin na ang ilang tao sa amin

"No one wanted that to happen Bryan. Tsaka hindi mo naman hawak ang puso ni Amber kaya paanong naging kasalanan mo? It's no one's fault. Hindi mo yung kasalanan Bryan." Tita comforted and I sighed

"I'll call you're parents para kunin ka dito. Ayokong magdrive ka pauwi. You're stressed at kailangan mong magpahinga"

"No! Tita, I'll stay here. Ayokong iwan si Amber!" but it was too late

Mom already answered Tita Angeline's call.

"We're in the hospital......No! Bryan's safe. It's just ayokong magdrive siya pauwi............ Yes, thank you Bettina."

I sighed and looked at Tita helplessly.

"Can't I stay, Tita? I'd like to stay here po"

"I'm sorry, Bryan dear. Mas makabubuti kung magpapahinga ka muna. I'll stay here at babantayan ko si Amber so don't worry too much. "

I sighed in defeat and just waited for Mom and Dad to arrive.

"Bryan!" Mom shouted and she hugged me 

"Angeline! Kamusta ang lagay ni Amber? Is she okay?" Dad asked and Tita Angeline smiled sadly

"The results aren't here yet. Nasa ER pa si Amber hanggang ngayon." Tita retorted and Dad nodded

Just as we were busy talking the doctor in charge went out.

"Where is the family of the patient?" tanong ng doctor and Tita rose from her sit

"I am her mother. How is she, doc?"

"The patient is now in stable condition. Mabuti na lang at naagapan pa. And about her heart, I think we might need a heart transplant for her. She had gone weak because of her heart at kailangan na talagang palitan ang puso niya. We will still test kung pwede nga ba talaga siyang magundergo sa transplant and we'll see kung mataas ang success rate. Yun lang po" 

"Thank you, doc"

"You're welcome. I'll get going first" the doctor announced and Tita just nodded

"We'll get going na rin, Angeline. Bryan needs to rest" 

"Mag-ingat kayo. Bryan magpahinga ka ha? Don't stress yourself and don't worry about Amber. The doctor said she's fine naman daw na. I'll just text your Mom kung pwede nang bisitahin si Amber. Take care, Bettina." Tita bid goodbye and I just smiled weakly at her

Mom held me in her arms and guided me to our car. Brix was also there playing in his phone.

"Hey" he greeted me and saw na matamlay ako kaya tinapik niya na lang ang balikat ko

"How's Amber doing, Mom?" tanong ni Brix kay Mom and I closed my eyes para makatulog

"She's fine, Brix."

"Mabuti naman po. Is......is Bryan also okay?"

"Just let him rest for now, Brix. He's stressed kasi siya ang sumugod kay Amber sa hospital"

"Everything's gonna be alright, brother. Amber is a fighter naman eh so you really don't have to worry" I heard Brix said and I just let myself to sleep

Ginising din naman ako ni Brix nang makarating na kami sa bahay. I locked myself up in my room kasi ayokong lumabas. I won't go out kung hindi ko din naman makikita si Amber.

My one week passed by nang ganun ang setup. Nasa kwarto lang ako in that one week at hinahatid na lang ng maid ang pagkain ko sa kwarto.

I just sleep all day kahit sa loob ko I wanted to go out and see for myself na ayos na nga si Amber.

Tita Angeline haven't texted my Mom kasi kung nagtext na si Tita, Mom would probably inform me kung ganun.

Day 8 without Amber and I decided to go out my room. I took a bath and wore a simple white shirt, a dark blue shorts and a pair of white sneakers.

I'll pay a visit to Amber kahit hindi pa pwede. I can wait naman kung kailan pwede ko na siyang makita.
