When Fighters Fall In Love

Chapter 35

Ayesha Rakki's POV

Nagmulat ako ng mata at agad na napatayo nang makita na sikat na sikat na ang araw. Tiningnan ko kaagad ang relo ko at nang makita kong 2pm na ay akmang tatayo na sana ako ng magsalita si Tristan.

"You should eat first." Sabi niya sa akin at itinuro ang take outs na nasa lamesa.

"I can't, Tristan. I have so many things to do."

"No need na. Si Doz Zayden na ang pumunta sa mga patients mo to check on them."

"Huh?" Naguguluhan na tanong ko. "What do you mean? And where is Uncle?"

"Doc Zayden came by earlier and saw you sleeping peacefully, so he told me he'd handle your patients for today." Napabuntong hininga ako sa sinabi niya. Hindi ko naman kailangan. "You should eat first. I haven't seen Uncle, so I don't know where he is."

"Did Zayden tell you anything?"

"Like what?" Kunot noo niyang tanong.

"I don't know, maybe about his plans or something?"

"Hmm, nothing. Do you want me to ask him?"

"No."

"Okay."

Kumain na ako dahil nagugutom na rin talaga ako. Hindi ko na nga nainit pa ang pagkain sa sobrang gutom.

"Anyway, Uncle asked me to tell you that the Adissons are coming over today. He expects us to be here." Natural na sabi niya na ikinairap ko.

"Why are they coming here?"

"I'm not sure. Honestly, I'm uncomfortable having them here too, especially knowing that one of them could be the person behind everything that's happening to you." Sinabi ko kay Tristan na 'wag sabihin kay Uncle ang information na 'to dahil malapit siya masiyado sa mga Adisson.

Ayoko naman sirain yung bond nila. Ang tagal nilang hindi nagkita-kita.

I know Uncle Sean is smart. He will figure it out.

"Rakki."

"Yes?"

"Is there anything I can do? I told you I'd help you, but until now, there's still nothing I can do for you." Tanong niya kaya napatingin ako ng diretso sa kaniya. Hindi ko akalain na gusto niya pa rin tumulong sa akin kahit nasa ganiyang sitwasyon na siya.

"Tristan, you know I don't care about any of that. I just need you to stay safe. Leave all the hard things to me."

"But what if something happens to you too? You know we won't be able to handle it. And Uncle... he'd lose his mind for the second time."

"I'll be fine. I never do anything without having backup plans."

Ngumiti naman siya kaya napangiti na rin ako. Kailangan ko lang talaga sila i-assure na walang mangyayaring masama sakin.

"Doc Rakki, kailangan na daw po kayo sa operating room." Nagsorry pa ang nurse kay Tristan na ngumiti lang sa kaniya.

Hindi ko siya pwedeng iwanan dito mag-isa kahit may mga body guard na nakabantay sa labas. Baka bigla na naman siyang kunin sa amin. Mababaliw na talaga ako.
