Prologue
PROLOGUE “May pasyente ka pa?”  I turned around to see who’s asking and saw that it was Dra. Lorenzo, she removed her coat from her body and hanged it to her chair. After it, she removed her heels then replaced it with slippers, just a sign that she’s done doing her job and it’s time for her to rest. She looked at me confused and laughed. “You don’t know how to talk?” Umiling ako. I walked towards her and smiled. “Nope, I have one exclusive patient here, and I will be meeting him later.”   Napatakip ito ng bibig. “OMG, are you Doctora Valencia? I apologize, I thought it was--” “Hey, it’s okay,” I chuckled. “I’m sorry for entering your room. Dito muna ako pina-stay ni head because they didn’t expect me to be here too soon,” I explained before she could even react to why I was here.  She just smiled and grabbed a coffee powder, “No, worries. I’m Dra. Lorenzo by the way, the newest Doctor here. I guess you already know my name since it was placed on my door outside and on my table right here.” Then she pointed her nametag on the table.  I nodded as a response. I let her drink her coffee and went back to where I was standing earlier. Nasa bintana lang naman ako pero ramdam ko ang magaan na pakiramdam kapag tumutunganga sa ganitong sitwasyon. Kapag kasi nasa mataas na lugar ka at tanaw mo kung gaano kaganda ang baba katulad ng city lights, tall buildings, trees and even transportations that keep on moving, ang sarap lang tignan. Makapag-isip ka talaga nang mabuti. Parang nasa ulap ka rin dahil nalilimutan mo pansamantala ang mga problema, at ang tanging ramdam mo lang ay ang relaxation. Tumungaw ako sa baba at napangiti.  Even if I had no plans on coming back here, faith really made a way for me to come back where I truly came from. Nevertheless, I missed my country somehow. I missed the Philippines. I missed my home. Nakakatuwa lang dahil halos isinumpa ko na sa bato na hindi na ako babalik dito, pero look who’s eating her words? Nandito na siya, mas maaga pa sa expected flight niya. We really know what the future holds, I guess. “Dra. Valencia, I will be resting for a bit. Please make yourself at home.” I nodded and watched her rest her head on her table.  Ramdam ko ang pagod niya dahil minsan kinukuha ko rin ang munting panahon para makapagpahinga ako. Doctors don’t have time for rest. Hindi nila kayang magpahinga knowing that they still have lots of patients to be cured. Kasi ako, ganoon ako sa mga pasyente ko sa States. Hindi ko kayang makita silang nahihirapan, sumasakit dibdib ko ‘pag nakikita ko ang sitwasyon nila kaya pinagtatrabahuhan ko talaga nang mabuti para lang gumaling. You may not see it because doctors are not allowed to show their emotions. They may look unbothered to their patients, but trust me, they care and are hurting inside. They just don’t want you all to see that side because they need to look professional. That’s how tough they are. Kahit na libre lang ang kapeng matatanggap ko kay Dra. Lorenzo ay mas minabuti ko na lang lumabas at tumungo sa pinakamalapit na starbucks dito sa hospital.  I looked at my watch as I waited for my order. Alas sais na at pupunta na ako mamaya sa pasyente mga alas otso ng gabi para imeet siya. Hindi kasi pwede ngayon dahil oras na ng pahinga niya, ginigising lang siya tuwing alas otso for her maintenance. And even though hindi pa required na magtrabaho, I would love to meet him na. I just wanna see him and how can I help him. I don’t know, hindi ko alam kung bakit atat na atat ako. There is just something in me that pushes me to meet him. And I know myself, kung hindi ako mapakali, gagawin at gagawan ko ng paraan para kumalma. “Caramel Macchiato for Dra.” Tumayo na ako at kinuha ang kape sa counter.  I left the coffee shop and went to the parking lot. Pumasok ako sa kotse ko at nagpatugtog. I’m gonna spend my time doing nothing here ‘til 8.  My phone chimed so I answered it immediately.  “Babe? Where are you?” I smiled when I heard Terence’s voice. “I’m sorry for not updating, I went to the Hospital immediately as soon as I arrived.”  “Oh damn, I was worried. You’re not answering my calls and messagess.” His voice were full of frustration. “I’m fine, I’m sorry.” I sipped a drink on my coffee and let my back rest on my seat.  “You sound tired, why don’t you rest first? May bukas pa, hon. Kailangan mo magpahinga lalo na’t kagagaling mo lang sa byahe.” “But—“ “Please, listen to me. How can you do your job well if you’re not okay? It’s okay to look after for your patients, but always prioritize yourself. They won’t be healed if you’re sick. Sige ka,” mahabang paliwanang niya kaya tumango na lang ako.  “Okay, then.”  I took a deep sighed and hung the phone up. Nilagay ko na lang kape ko sa cup seater and started the engine.  When I was about to move forward, a black car arrived that made me stop my driving instantly. Napasubsob mukha ko sa manobela dahil sa biglaang pagsulpot niya. Ramdam ko rin na may tumulo sa paa ko at nanggigi ako nang makita ko na natapon ang kape sa loob ng kotse ko. Argh! No way.  I unbuckled my seatbelts and hopped outside the car.  With eyes full of fierce, I called out the owner.  “You almost killed me, do you know that?” I calmly yelled with greeted teeth. “And do you know that you shouldn’t be parking here for this is exclusively for Doctors and staff only?!” I continued without losing my class as a Doctor.  Pero ilang segundo na nakalipas ay hindi pa rin lumalabas ang driver. And this stressing me out! Tignan mo kung gaano kabastos?!  I’m really gonna call security guard to teach him a lesson!  I went back inside to get my phone, and faced him again. Gigil kong binuksan ngunit napahinto ako nang maalalang wala nga pala akong impormasyon sa mga tauhan dito. Argh! I saw the plate number and took a picture of it. I’m gonna report the person behind this for being a reckless driver! “What are you doing?”  My heart skipped a beat upon hearing the voice. No way, this can’t be. Sobrang lakas ng kabog ng dibdib ko to the point na nanginginig mga kamay ko.  Slowly raising my head to see him, and I wasn’t wrong, it’s actually him.  My eyes welled up upon seeing him right now. Oh damn, I thought I am already okay, but why do I still feel this way? He was just looking at me blankly. His hair was a bit long messy wave colored with  brown that made him even look hotter now.  He was still as handsome as before. His visual is no joke. I looked away to stopped myself from missing him.  I faced him back when I heard his engine started. Then, I watched him leave the place as if nothing had happened. I scoffed.  The audacity. What do I expect? Never have I ever received apologies from him before for fooling me around and for believing he’ll give me a happy ending.  Pwe. A cheater. Ghoster. He had it all!
