Unexpectedly Falling For You

51

He's in a critical condition.

When Aika heard this, she quickly got up and packed her stuff. But Eugene won't let her.

Eugene: Saan ka pupunta? Pupuntahan mo siya?

Aika stopped. She was scared but she wanted to see Caesar.

She needed to see Caesar.

Aika turned to Eugene.

Aika: Eugene please... Kahit ngayon lang.

Eugene: And if I say no, ano gagawin mo?

Aika walked to him. She then lowered herself

She was now kneeling in front of him. Holding his shirt.

She was begging.

Aika: please Eugene, just this once. Maawa ka please, I'll do anything.

Eugene liked what he heard from her.

Eugene: Anything Aika??

Aika: Anything Eugene... Just let me see him this once.

Eugene reached to Aika's ears and whispered something Aika surely didn't wanted.

Eugene: Well, can you do it?

Aika was hesitating. This was something she couldn't do. This was something she doesn't want to do.

Aika: Eugene, anything but this please. Di ko kaya gawin to.

Eugene: Di mo kaya?? Nagawa mo na dati diba?

Aika: Eugene please. Wag. Please.
Nagmamakaawa ako, wag to please.

Aika's tears were flowing from her eyes and Eugene loved the sight.

Eugene: Aika, mabait nga ako eh, I am giving a choice.

Or to marry me and see him for the last time?

He held her face, closer to him.

Eugene: diba ang bait ko, mahal?

Eugene kissed her forcefully and let go.

Eugene: So mahal, what would it be???

Setting: At the hospital

Tricia got out of the emergency room.

Cedrick approached her fast.

Cedrick: Love, kamusta siya??

Tricia looked at him, worried.

Tricia: Love, I think you need to sit down.

Cedrick sat down with Tricia. Tricia held his hand.

Tricia: He suffered from alcohol poisoning and because of the cuts, he needs a blood transfusion. It was a good thing you brought him kaagad kasi if nadelay pa, he might have died.

But currently, he is in a coma. Let's just hope he will wake up soon but now let's focus on the blood transfusion love.

Cedrick nodded but he was curious if Aika knew.

Cedrick: Does ate Aiks know?

Tricia was silent.

Cedrick: Love ...

Tricia: Yes, tinawagan ko na siya but hindi siya sumagot if pupunta siya or hindi.

Cedrick: Love, di ko na talaga alam ang nangyayari kay ate Aiks.

Tricia: Oo love, pareho tayo. Pero magtiwala lang tayo. Alam kong alam ni ate Aiks ang ginagawa niya.

Tricia held Cedrick's hands to comfort him.

Everything will be okay.

Setting: Caesar's hospital room

Caesar was there laying down.
His hands full of bandages. His eyes closed. His face was an evidence of the suffering he had Aika left him.

Him being in a comma, felt like a dream for him.

Caesar opened his eyes. It was all white. He wasn't surprised if this was already heaven.

But as he looked closely, there was girl standing.

It was Sha.

He ran to her as if he was a child running to her mother.

He hugged her. He hugged her tight. He missed her.

Missed her so much.

Caesar: Sha.... I missed you darling.

Sha chuckled with what she heard.

Sha: I know, i know.

Sha caressed his hair and hugged him tight.

Sha broke off the hug as she asked him.

Sha: How are you my darling?

Caesar, remembering Aika, remembering what happened couldn't answer.

Sha: Caesar?

She was showing a concerned look.

Caesar: I'm okay now. I'm okay now with you.

Sha saw he was sad and hurt. But it wasn't his time yet. It wasn't his time to go yet.

Sha: Caesar, you can't go. You still have to live.

Caesar was displeased. He just wanted to end it already. What's the point of living anyway.

Sha saw that from his reaction. She caressed his face as he looked at her.

Sha: You'll be okay. You always did.

Caesar: But sha....

Sha: You lost me before, still you lived. But you're not done yet with her, my darling. You still can fix this.

Sha hugged him.

As she touch him, he felt comfort in her arms.

Sha: You'll be okay darling.

You will be.

You need to be.

Caesar opened his eyes, back to reality and saw someone familiar.

It was Aika.

Bumalik siya pero the consequences though 😌

PS: Mahal, babalik at babalik parin sayo kahit ilang beses masaktan ang puso.
