STAR GAZING AT HER MOON

Chapter CIV: Late

IMEE’S POV:

I planned to visit Thirdy in the hospital as I am worried for the kid and when she was carried by harry while there is a blood out from her nose which really did made me feel scared looking at her.

As I will go to the kid I then prepare some good lunch for her and I know she will love all of this because it’s her favourite’s dishes of mine.

“Imee anak asan ka?”, Mommy came here inside the kitchen while I’m packing the foods.

“Ah Mommy bibisitahin ko po ang bata kaya nagluto ako ng mga gulay para lumakas na sya”, I said which she slowly sit on the chair which I quickly guide her.

“Si Irene dalhan mo din ang kapatid mo”, she said which I looked at her.

“Mommy ano kaya magiging reaksyon ng bata pagnalaman nyang si Irene talaga ang totoong Mommy nya?”, I then asked her which she then reached for my hand.

“Imee alam kong mapagpatawad ang bata. Hindi sya nagtatanim ng galit o sama ng loob. Hindi masamang bata ang apo ko at alam kong mabuti ang pagpapalaki ni Greggy sa anak nila. Mabuti ang puso ng bata at alam kong mahal nya ang nanay nya”, she said with hopes that I can see through her eyes while saying those words.

“Mommy, pero kung dahil doon sa ginawa ni Irene sa kanya ay matutong kamuhian ng bata ang nanay nya? Paano kung dahil doon tumigas ang puso ng bata para kay Irene? Like, Mommy we saw how did Irene changed that she can do it to her daughter. Mommy I really can’t imagine or even sink in to myself that my sister can done that thing to her own daughter”, I said worrying what will happen after last 2 nights now.

“Imee have faith on Him. Hindi nya tayo hahayaang masira dahil lang sa nagkamali tayo. Oo may mali ang kapatid mo at alam ko ‘yon, pero nadala lang sa takot ang kapatid mo. Magtiwala ka kay Irene, wag mong iwanan ang kapatid mo”, Mommy said which by the way she holds my hand I know she’s even scared and worried.

“Mommy ayaw ko lang naparehong masaktan si Irene at ang bata. Hindi ko kayang magkasiraan sila dahil pareho silang importante sa akin. Dahil bunsong kapatid ko si Irene at nag-iisang babaeng pamangkin ko si Thirdy”, I said which Mommy then hugs me.

“Magiging maayos ang lahat Imee. Lagi syang andyan and I know your Dad is always just right here with us. Babalik din tayo sa dati, yung masaya at mapayapa”, she said and kissed my cheeks.

“Nako Mommy nagpapaiyak ka eh, dapat fresh ako pagkaharap ko na yung Chanak”, I said which she pinched my side.

“Fresh mukha mo, di ka pa nga nakakasuklay eh”, she said which tama may towel pa pala sa buhok ko hehehe.

“My ghad good thing you noticed Mommy kasi baka umabot na ako sa hospital na may towel parin sa buhok hahahah”, we were laughing and I’m all now done.

I put it all in one tote bag which si Mommy di pa pala tapos sa mga paalala nya eh ako gustong-gusto ng sumakay sa sasakyan at umalis.

“Melds easy, easy ka lang. Aalis na ako bye bye beshy ko”, I said as I kissed her forehead and cheeks.

Kasi kung aalis ka bigla ng hindi sya hinahalikan expect mo nalang talaga na tawagan ka ng nurse nya at magsasabing “umiyak po si Ma’am Imelda Ma’am, kasi di nyo daw po sya inalala”.

Ganun sya ka OA akala nyo lang na kami lang OA eh mas OA  po nanay namin syempre yun namana namin hehehe.

I get inside my car which I told my driver na sa Makati Med kami at aabsent ako sa Senate kasi mas importante pamangkin ko.

We’re travelling the road going to the hospital which I am thinking about how the kid will absorb this all.

Lile paano nya kakayaning malaman na ang babaeng kinakatakutan nya ay 'yon din ang babaeng hinihintay nya ng mahabang panahon.
