The Unspoken Words of Kiefer Ravena

Chapter 31: Strength

"I can't believe this is happening. What's wrong with you girls? Two sets, two sets ang lamang natin. Pinahabol nyo pa ang kalaban. Ayan nanalo na sila." Our coach said with obviously, full of disappointments.

I am now on my way to the hospital to visit Kiefer. I have never visited him since dinala sya sa ICU. I am still hoping that he's going great there.

When I got there, I saw Thirdy inside. Sya lang mag isa. Napping on the bedside. Maybe tita and tito are getting rest and Dani is in school right now.

"Hey Thirds, you can take a nap. I will take in charge muna." I said while tapping his shoulders.

"Are you sure Mika? Di ba you have practice today?"

"Coach cancelled it. So I will spend my day here with your Manong. Oh sige na. Mag nap ka muna dyan. I'll call you if he wake up na." I told him. He just smile. Yeah. I hope this guy beside me will wake up na.

When Thirdy already left the room, I started to fix his blanket. After fixing his bed, I sat down on the chair where Thirdy sat earlier.

Pinagmasdan ko si Kiefer habang sya ay nakapikit. So many tubes and everything na nakapasak sa katawan nya.

Totoo bang nangyayari ito? I mean, I can't believe this is happening. Pinagmasdan ko lang sya.

"Mika, alam ko kailangan ka ni Kiefer pero mas kailangan kita. Mas kailangan ka ng buong team. I am all giving you the chance to breathe. Please be with the people who can help you to improve. Be with your motivation. We will have our practice the day before the last game. So spend time with your inspirations okay." Pakiusap ni coach before he left the gym.

"Kief, gumising ka na please! Mamahalin pa kaya kita. Okay ang cheese ko. Naririnig mo ba ako? Ang pogi mo pala ano?" Sigh

"Hi ate Miks. Akala ko hindi ka na pupunta dito eh. Sigurado akong miss na miss ka na ni Manong. Diba kuya kong pogi?" Sabi ni Dani sabay tingin sa kuya nyang pogi talaga kaso hindi pa nagigising.

"Ayieeeee gigising na yan si Manongggg!!!" Dani teasing his Manong. Like she's so cute na kahit na she knows na her kuya is in coma, nakikipagkwentuhan pa rin sya dito.

"Alam mo ba ate Mika, ngumiti yan si manong nung sinabi kong dadalaw ka dito." She said while arranging her hair.

"Hey Dani don't make me visit here every day. You don't have to. I will visit Kiefer often. Okay? Dani, Why you're so cute?" I said as I pinched her cheeks.

"Mana lang ako sa iyo ate Mika." She said and then hugged me.

"Ate sana pagkagising ni Kuya Kiefer, kayo na agad. Promise, ako ang bride's maid mo okay?"

"Ay grabe Dani! Kasal agad? Sige ikaw ang bride's maid ko kahit sa iba ha?"

"Aish! Ate Miks so bully talaga. Syempre kuya ko lang ang pakakasalan mo no!!" We laughed. Hayy nako Dani ikaw na ang nagdesisyon sa akin. Hahahahahhaha.

"Osige ate Mika, maiwan muna kita ha? I need to go home kasi I have a lot of school works to do."

"Okay sige. Ingat ka pauwi."I told her then she gave me a smile.

Inihiga ko ang ulo ko sa braso ni Kiefer at niyakap sya.

"Grabe Kiefer, miss na miss na kita. Please dalian mo na nga gumising. Nakakainis ka naman eh." I said while my eyes were closed. I put my face into Kiefs shoulder, and now I am facing his neck.

"Alam mo, kahit hindi ka gising at hindi ka naliligo, ang bango bango ko pa rin. Akala ko di mo gagamitin yung perfume na binigay ko sayo. Yun pala favorite mo na." I hugged him tightier and with that kind of feeling, I fell asleep.

I wake up at around 4:30 in the afternoon. Masyado atang napasarap ang tulog ko sa balikat ni Kiefer eventhough I have that awkward position (sleeping while sitting, sitting while sleeping).

"Kief, I will not be able to visit you tomorow and next day. That's the day of our training and the championship game, the last one. I love you.." I kissed his forehead and left the room.
