Para akong lumulutang ng bumalik sa silid at baon baon pa ang mga sermon ni Tito. Nang pumasok ay gising na si Dylan at kausap na ang Doctor ni Lucas. Tito Marvin even give me a look before I went towards them.

"Doc, how is he? Bakit hindi pa siya nagigising?"

"As I was saying to Mr. Jacobo, the only reason why he's taking too long to wake up, is due to the accident. Hindi lang basta basta nakainom ng tubig ang bata, he also hit his head the reason why he's in coma for three days now."

My lips parted. Hindi ako nakapag salita dahil sa sinabi ng Doctor. Dylan who's also standing beside me didn't even bother to open his mouth, pareho kaming nawalan ng sasabihin.

"But you don't have to worry, this is nothing serious. Wala namang internal bleeding or malalang nangyari sa ulo ng bata. This will only take a few more days at magigising din siya. For now, we have to monitor him..."

That's what the Doctor said. Takot na takot ako ng malamang comatose na pala ang lagay ni Lucas, but then when he also assured me that it will only take a few days and that nothing serious happened to his head, I tried to calm myself.

Sa mga sumunod na araw ay siyang pag bisita nina Jertine. They never failed to visit Lucas and offer for their help. Hindi rin naman sila nakakapag tagal sa ospital dahil bukod sa hindi ako makausap ng ayos, kami naman ni Dylan ang nag babantay doon mag hapon.

I stared at Dylan while he's talking with the Lady Doctor. Nanatili ako sa tabi ni Lucas habang nag uusap sila sa paanan ng kama. I should be involved with their conversation but I chose to sit and just watch them. Iyon nga lang, hindi ko alam kung bakit sa panonood ko ay napupuna ko pa ang lahat.

"The X-rays and CT scan results are fine. Walang internal bleeding or any fractured, thank God." She chuckled. "I was really hands on about it lalo na't Jacobo itong pasyente ko."

Hindi ko maatim ang Doctor na ito. Kanina pa siya tawa ng tawa sa sinasabi nya when I don't even find it funny. I mean, this is a serious matter we're talking about. It's my fucking son's life and all she did was laugh about it.

"What else can we do? I mean, can we do it twice so we can be sure?" Si Dylan na seryosong nakikipag usap.

"Of course, we can! Malakas ka ata sa akin." She chuckled. Bumaba ang tingin ko sa biceps ni Dylan ng bahagya nya pa itong hinampas.

"Oh, well... I mean, that's a good idea if you really want to be sure. Sige, uulitin natin."

Hindi ko na lang pinansin. She's a professional doctor, my son's life is base on her capabilities and I have to trust her so everything will went smoothly. That is what I keep on saying to myself.

Iyon nga lang, ng sumunod na araw at gano'n pa din ang nangyari, hindi ko na napigilan kundi bawiin lahat ng sinabi ko. I don't think I can trust my son's life to her. She's not professional with what she's doing and I just can't take risks.

"This is fine. Thank you, Doc." Dylan as he checked the results.

"Of course, Dylan. Anything for you. Is there anything more you want us to do?" She said in a malicious way.

I stood up from the couch, agad akong lumapit sa dalawang nag uusap. When she saw me coming, she immediately acted in a very professional way. Ang tindig at ngiti nya ay nag iba, malayong malayo sa malanding Doctora kanina.

Flirt. Sana'y naisip mo na kanina pa ako nakikinig at kanina ka pa sana umayos.

"You want to check it?" Bumaling sa akin si Dylan.
