Dr. de Silva
Good evening, Robin! This is Dr. de Silva, Francine's husband. She endorsed you to me earlier this morning, apologies kung ngayon lang ako nakapag-message. How are you feeling by the way?


Robin
hello, doc! thank you po pala kanina at sa pag message! masakit pa rin po sa may balakang tapos di ako makatayo



Dr. de Silva
That's normal for sciatic pain so you don't have to worry about it too much, okay? Common instances din naman siya for your age group due to posture and activities. Have you tried cold and hot compress?


Robin
yes po, relieving naman siya



Dr. de Silva
Okay, continue mo lang yun. I don't really recommend drinking pain killers pero if hindi na bearable yung pain, you may take one. Avoid lifting heavy weights and maintain proper posture especially kapag nakaupo ka. Do some walking din from time to time para makapag-stretch ka kasi hindi rin okay if nakahiga ka lang all day.



Robin
sure po, doc. noted ko po



Dr. de Silva
Francine told me to send you this for formality
Dr. Nicco de Silva sent a file.
Also, please take note that full recovery may take 4-6 weeks. But expect na after two weeks may pain pa rin although it's tolerable, I'd still advice you refrain from bending and lifting heavy objects. Also, it's better kapag naliligo kang nakaupo or if may shower, ayun na lang muna gamitin para hindi ka yuyuko palagi sa tabo.



Robin
hala may pa med cert
noted din po sa advice ninyo
thank you po so much!!!

Dr. de Silva
You're welcome! Feel free to message me here if you have any questions.



Robin
hehe ano po
magkano consultation fee?



Dr. de Silva
Oh, don't worry about it.



Robin
hala doc magkano po?



Dr. de Silva
It's fine.
My wife put in a good word for you, she told me how you took care of her even from previous projects years ago so okay na.


Robin
hala ka seryoso po?


Dr. de Silva
Yes. Just take some rest.



Robin
okay po salamat sobra!


Dr. de Silva
No worries!




INT. ROOM - EVENING

6:53 p.m.



Mikey
Are you okay? Why do you look like you're about to cry?





Robin
E, kasi 'tong asawa ni Francine ang bait. Ayaw magpabayad ng consultation fee tapos binigyan ako ng med cert!



Mikey
What do you mean?



Robin
Nag-message kasi siya sa 'kin ngayon lang tapos ayun, sinabihan ako na 'wag mag-worry and nagbigay din siya ng advice, medyo nakalma naman ako pero nakakagulat pa rin kasi free 'yong consultation kahit willing ako magbayad.



Mikey
I see.



Robin
Tapos sinearch ko siya! Neurosurgery pa pala 'yong specialization tapos nakakalula 'yong resume at achievements, nakita ko sa LinkedIn profile niya e 'di ba kaunti lang sila sa field? Kaya mas nahihiya ako na libre 'yong consultation ko!



Mikey
Ah . . .


Mikey placed the her food and hot compress on the nightstand.



Robin
Thank you pala, Mikey. Nag-dinner ka na ba?




Mikey
Not yet. Sabay tayo.



Robin
Gusto mo na naman akong kasabay?



Mikey
Yup.




Robin smiled.



Robin
Okay! Ano palang ulam?



Mikey
Caldereta and roasted chicken.



Robin
Sa 'yo na lang 'yong manok—




Mikey
Can I ask you something?




Robin
Ano 'yon?




Mikey
Do you prefer that?




Robin
Ha? Ang alin?




Mikey
Academically smart and high achievers. Do you prefer them?
