More Than Just A Bet

Chapter 47

Chapter 47

Stars give light in our darkest nights. But some of them died million years ago.. they're like memories of the past.. just coming back, but will never stay with us.

..Ever again.

-Christalline

Marcus' P.O.V

Everything that happened was a flash.. her heartbeat monitor was a flat line.

Andito kami ngayon sa labas ng emergency room.

After an hour
(1:00 pm)

Lumabas si doc.

"Doc, how is she?" tanong ko kagad.

"We are sorry.. we did everything we can.." sabi niya.

Lahat kami ay nag uumiyak, after a few seconds dumating yung isa pang doctor, she's a girl baka nurse lang. Lumapit siya kay doc at agad na may binulong.

After that agad na tumakbo si doc sa emergency room.

1:43 pm

May mga doktor na lumabas hila hila ang stretcher ni Christalline.

"This is a miracle, after half a minute death sleep, her heartbeat came back.. she's live and alive, but still we need to check her up and atleast confine her here until next next week."

Napaiyak si tita Alex sa tuwa nang malaman niya na buhay si Christal. Even me, I don't know what to feel, I'm so happy.

Despite all the problems we had this past few weeks, still.. God gives way for us..

Ilang araw at linggo na din ang nakalipas and Dec. 2 (Day 911) na.

Ilang buwan nalang din at graduate na kami..

It means, malapit ko na siyang iwan at malapit na din ang tapos ng bet.. I'm still thinking kung itutuloy ko ba.. ako at si Ethan lang ang anak eh, si Ethan, hindi niya na ako kinakausap..

Nakaramdam ako ng dampi sa cheeks ko and it turns out to be Christalline.

"Were gonna be late for school.." sabi niya. Naka black skirt siya, cream colored na polo-shirt and nakajacket siya na dark blue, and naka earmuffs din siya, malamig na din kasi eh.. while eto ako naka bonet na different shades of gray then naka sweater ako na kulay dark blue tas naka pants na black.

Kinuha ko na yung bag ko at sumakay sa kotse.

Pagkarating namin sa school agad kaming nilapitan ng mga kaklase namin some to get authographs sa dvd nila.. may bago kasi kaming movie and showing pa yun sa cinemas until tom.. Wala kaming inentertain kasi nasa kontrata namin na walang makakakuha ng authograph namin unless araw na ng authograph signing namin.. to be fair daw.

Bago kami pumasok sa classroom napansin namin yung dami ng taong papunta sa auditorium.

Hininto ko muna yung isang studyante, "Hey, uhh.. what's happening? Why are all students heading towards the auditorium?" tanong ko.

"Principal Rexmon called an emergency meeting, all gr. 12 students should be there by now." sabi niya

"Ah thanks" sabi ko.

Naglakad na din kami ni Christalline papunta sa auditorium.

"Why aren't we informed?" tanong ni Christal.

"I don't know.. actually." sagot ko.

Pagkarating namin dun nagsisimula nang magsalita si Principal Rexmon. Umupo ako sa tabi nila Luke, habang tumabi naman sa tabi nila Vienne si Christalline. Nakita ko si Ethan katabi yung bago niyang barkada.. well, he became popular.. super popular.. at yung barkada niyang bago? Yun yung #1 enemy ng barkada namin..
