Chapter Fifty-three

Every child is a blessing. A gift from God. This blessing comes to those who deserve it. Indeed, every children brought happiness to every family.

"Oh! Jen! Napatawag ka?" Sambit ko pagkatapos sagotin ang tawag ni Jenny. "Is everything okay there?" Tanong ko pa.

Inipit ko sa pagitan ng Aking Tenga at balikat ang Aking cellphone. I compiled all my paper works while talking to Viena.

Kahapon lang ay nag simula na ang Laguna Medical Mission Nila. At kahapon tumawag din si Exxon. But, I preferred to ignore it. Answering his call will do nothing good to me.

"Yeah. Everything is fine." Mahinang saad nya. "Ikaw okay ka ba Jan?"

"bakit ka ba bumubulong?" Mahina rin ang boses na tanong ko.

"Ah- ah wala naman." She wisphered again. " Anyway, I can't find your Ex here, umalis ata eh."

Napailing nalang ako dahilan upang muntik nang mahulog ang Aking telepono Buti nalang at nasalo ko iyon.

"He's not my Ex Jen." I corrected her. "At pake ko ba sa kanya?"

Ilang beses ko na sinabi sa kanya na hindi ko nga Ex si Exxon but she's always insisting na Ex ko nga raw kaya hinayaan ko na.

"Fine." Natatawang pag suko nya. "Anyway, how's my patients?" Napaikot naman ang mata ko.

"They are all fine Jen, don't you trust me?" I mocked her.

"Of course I trust you!" She almost exclaimed.

Natawa nalang ako sa kanya. I know Jenny trust me as much as I trust her so much kaya rin sya pumayag na palitan ako. Her patients are actually getting better.

"Doc..." Rinig ko tawag kay Jenny sa kanilang linya Bago paalam si Jenny sa akin.

Siguro nga madami silang kaylangang gawin doon and I know Jenny and my team can do it. Simula nung umalis sina Jenny at Ang team ko, I find the whole hospital boring lalo na nung nag file ng leave so Jacob dahil nga pag tutuonan nya ng pansin ang mag Ina nya.

Jenny's team is not lively as my team, they are all serious may mga asawa na rin kasi, at medjo may edad na kaya hindi gaanong mabiro di katulad ng team ko. But, its okay. Uuwi na rin naman sila Jenny sa Thursday.

"Code blue! Code blue!" Agad Akong napa takbo nang marinig ang announcement.

"What room?" Tanong ko sa isang Nurse na nakasalubong ko.

"room 372 po Doc. " Agad ko namang tinakbo ang daan patungo doon.

Walang katok katok na binuksan ko ang pinto at laking gulat ko nang Wala Akong makitang kahit isang Nurse lang man, instead I saw Exxon wearing his Uniform, comfortably sitting on a patient's bed.

"Did you just pushed the emergency button for nothing?!" My emotion is boiling up!

He's looking darkly at me. But I don't feel any nervousness. My blood is heating up! Did he use the code blue for Nothing?! Alam nya ba na pinag babawal yun?! Is he out of his mind?!

"There's an emergency." Marahan akong napapikit at napalunok. I'm trying to calm my self.

"This is a hospital Captain Magnus. thi-" he cuted me off.

"Captain Magnus, ey?" He smirked. "When did you learn to call me that?" His brow shot up.

Damn! What is he even doing here? Dapat ay nasa Laguna sya ngayon!

"I-It's the right way to address you sir." Ramdam ang diin sa bawat salita ko.

Tila isa along kandilang na upos. Ang kaninang tapang ko ay tila nag lahong parang bula. Shit! Why do I feel this damn feeling everytime his near. I hate it!

          

Isa pa pinili ko na ngang wag sumama sa Laguna para makaiwas sa kanyang tapos ngayon nandito pa talaga sya! Nakakainis! Bakit ba kasi sya nandito? Does his girlfriend even know na nandito sya? Tch!

"Hmm. And when did you learn to address me right Doc. Adams?" Napalunok ako nang tumayo sya. I stepped back before looking directly at his eyes! Damn it!

Natatakot Akong malapit sa kanya. Natatakot Akong madikit lang man sa kanya dahil alam ko kung anong magiging epekto nun sa akin. It will ruin my plan.

"It's working hours sir, at kaylangan ko nang bumalik sa trabaho ko." Panimula ko. "If this is an I'm-"

"Why aren't you the one who lead your team?" TANGINA! Anong isasagot ko?!

'Kasi nga iniiwasan Kita! Di ba obvious?!' Hell! Why would I say that? Di pa ako baliw para sabihin yun sa kanya no!

"It doesn't matter who will lead the team-"

"I demand for a reason, Vien." Mariing Saad nya.

Bakit ba parang ang big deal naman ata sa kanya nang hindi ko Pag punta sa Laguna? Why do he even care?

"It's non of your business." I equaled the coldness of his intense stares ngunit hindi ko iyon matagalan.

"You are my business." Napalunok ako. I don't know why he is saying this but I felt a strange feeling in my stomach.

No! I can't let my guards down just because of his flowery words.

Back when we were still at Botswana, I knew that Exxon will only cost me danger. This is the main reason why I am afraid to admit that I fell for him. It's scary to fall in love with him.

His words are scary. It's different. It felt different. It's something that scares me. I don't want to feel this way. . Ang pakiramdam ng magmahal ay isang nakakatakot na pakiramdam dahilan upang hindi ako naniniwala sa mga kung anong nababasa ko sa libro.

Happy endings, true love and true happiness can only be seen in movies and only exist on books. They aren't real. In real world. There is no Happy endings. Laging maiiwan at maiiwan ang isa, lugmok at mahihirapang bumangon. The one who loves dearly will always be left alone.

"Why do you even care?" I snapped. "Jenny and my team are already there. They can provide the assistance that your troop needed-"

"You're avoiding me aren't you?" Nanlamig ako.

I hate how always looks at me like I'm an open book. He can always know what's running on my mind. I don't know if he really just knows me well or it's because of his skills as a soldier.

He came near me so I automatically stepped back but I felt the solid cold door behind me. Humugot ako ng isang malalim na hininga, my hand held the door knob ready to go out.

"I still have a lot of works to do." Akmang hihilain ko na Ang pinto upang makalabas nang pigilan iyon ni Exxon. "What the hell do you want?!" My eyes darted at him.

I can't control my emotion anymore.

His brow shot up. He lock me in between his arms. His  Cold eyes directly look at mine. I stiffened. I bowed my head just to avoid his eyes. My hands balled into first when he held my chin and make me look at him.

"Not to fast Vien. " He wisphered.

His nose is touching mine. A strange feeling is building up inside me because of his hot breath on my lips.

"I hate you!" Mariing Saad ko.

How can he play with my feelings just like this? May girlfriend na sya and yet here he is.. taking his time playing with my damn feelings. I hate him! I really do! Urgh!

"You do?" He smirked.

Damn!

"Ye-"

All thoughts suddenly vanished. My mind is not functioning properly because of his kisses. My hand is on his chest trying to push him away but I don't think I still have the strength to do so.

Ipinikit ko ang Aking mga mata upang damhin ang tamis ng bawat halik na kanyang ibinibigay sa akin. Na ikuyom ko nalang ang Aking kamay na nasa kanyang dibdib na kanina ay handang tumulak sa kanya palayo. Naiwang naka awang ang Aking bibig nang tinapos nya ang halik.

He smirked when he saw my hand clasped to his chest. damn! tangina! what the hell just happened?!

I pushed him away out of embarrassment but he was not shaken. each time I pushed him he came closer to me. annoying!

No! that was a mistake! I shouldn't let him kiss me or even get close to me. I always knew what effect he had on me! that shouldn't have happened!

"Say you hate me." He urged me.

Hindi ko mailabas ang tapang ko! Napakaraming tumatakbong salita sa Aking utak ngunit ni Isa ay walang lumabas.

Gaya noon. Hindi nanaman magkasundo ang Aking puso at isip. Nag susumigaw ang Aking isip na Isa iyong pagkakamali ngunit hindi ito matanggap ng Aking puso.

"I ha-" sinubukan kong mag salita ngunit sa pangalawang pagkakataon ay maramdaman ko ang kanyang labi.

It was sweet and gentle at first but the next seconds his kissed became deeper. He kissed me thoroughly that made my body respond to his kisses. He sucked my lower lip and slightly bit it reason why a soft moan scaped my mouth shit! My hand that's on his chest went up to his neck and clung to him.

Damn! My plan is formed in my head. My mind is reminding me that Exxon will just bring danger to me, and goodness gracious Kendra exist in his life, I may a bitch but I made up my mind. For once I want to give my self the happiness that I want. I want to be true to my self. All the doubts and pain in my heart vanished because of his kisses.

"Don't you dare avoid me again." Malambot ngunit may banta sa kanyang tinig. "I won't let you slip in my hands this time. Not again. Got that?" He said directly looking in my eyes.

I pursed my lips to hide the smile that wants to escape and slightly nod my head.

"That's my baby." He smiled then kissed my forehead before pulling me into a warm hug.

Ghad! This is the feels. I want to feel this illegal felling until forever. With him. Even it causes me my life.
