'Til Our Love Meet Again. (Forced Marriage Series #1)

18

Emerald's POV

I was sitting here at the park bench, outside the hospital.

Kanina pa'ko nakatulala. I can't process.

I can't believe about what the doctor said.

He said that Eve has Ventricular Septal Defect. She has a hole in her heart.

At dahil masyado pa siyang bata, maaari niyang ikamatay yon.

"Oh my god!" I flinched when someone tapped my shoulder.

"Hey." He said in a deep voice.

He sat down beside me, looking problematic.

"I talked to the doctor." He said.

"Hindi ko kakayanin pag nawala ang anak natin." He said holding my hand.

"Ako rin." I said almost whispering.

I went inside the hospital and was now beside Eve.

She's sleeping.

I looked at her. Hindi ko kaya.

A few minutes later, the doctor came in.

"Miss," He called.

I immediately stood up.

"Yes doc?" I said.

"I don't wanna say this but, Based on the results, your daughter only has 2 weeks to live." He said not looking at me.

My heart broke once i heard that.

How am i supposed to tell Asher?

"Doc is there a cure for this disease?" I asked.

He shook his head as a sign of 'no'.

"I'm afraid to tell you, that we can't do anything about it." He said still not looking at me.

"I understand." I said.

I didn't even notice my tears, were already falling.

"Love? I saw the doctor came out, what did he said?" Asher asked as he entered the room.

I turned around to face him.

"Love? Why are you crying?" He asked. I can see how worried he is, based on his expression.

"Eve... has 2... weeks." I said before breaking down.

Tuluyan nang tumulo ang mga luha ko.

I can see Asher's reaction. He was shocked, but at the same time, he was sad.

I sat at the floor, still crying.

He went near me to get me.

"Hey, hey, stand up, she will be okay." He said trying to calm me down.

"No Asher! The doctor said it already. Mamamatay ang anak natin!" I said frustrated.

The tears that he was trying to held back, escaped from his eyes.

He sighed heavily before letting go of me.

"What's your plan?" He asked still sobbing.

"Let's spend that 2 weeks with her." I said still crying.

Asher nodded.

"Eomma, why are you crying?" Eve woke up.

I immediately wiped my tears away.

"Nothing baby." I smiled at her.

"Is it because of me?" She asked.

Bakas ang pag-aalala sa mukha niya.

"No baby." I said caressing her hand.

"Don't be sad eomma, appa." She smiled sweetly.

I feel the urge to cry again because of that. Remembering that she only has 2 weeks to live. We won't be able to see that beautiful smile again.

What a cruel world.

Minsan iniisip ko, bakit kailangan maging ganito ang buhay ko.

"What do you want for dinner?" Asher asked eve.

"Can i have ice cream?" She asked smiling.

"Of course." We both said.

Carlisle's POV

We're peacefully eating here in the cafeteria.

Hindi ko 'man masyadong ipinapakita na apektado ako, pero deep inside, ang sakit sakit.

Our daughter will die, in 2 weeks.

"What flavor do you want?" I asked smiling at Eve.

"Mint Choco!" She exclaimed happily.

I smiled at her.

"Okay, let's buy alot." I said as i patted her head.

Emerald's POV

1 week and 6 days has passed by. We spent the whole week with our daughter.

And i can see her, getting weak. Day by day.

Today is her last day.

I opened the door of her room, and saw her laying on that white bed weakly.

"Eve, what do you feel?" The doctor asked her.

"My chest is hurting... alot." She whispered weakly.

I feel the urge to cry again. The whole 2 weeks. Every night i cry.

"Eomma, can you buy me ice cream?" She asked.

I smiled at her, helding my tears back.

I nodded and went down.

Mabilis akong bumili ng paborito niyang flavor ng ice cream.

I immediately went back.

I stopped infront of her room.

I opened the door, and saw my daughter at that white bed, laying down, lifeless.

"Doc." The doctor wasn't looking at me again. He was just looking at the floor.

He looked up and turned his gaze at me. He smiled at me sadly.

He went near me and tapped my shoulder.

"Condolence." And with that, he went out along with the nurses.

Carlisle was just sitting on the chair, crying quietly.

He went near me, and hugged me.

Parang pinipiga ang puso ko.

Hindi ko 'ata kakayanin.

Tuluyan nang bumagsak ang mga luha ko.

"You can do it love." Saad niya habang hinihimas ang likod ko.

I nodded, but i'm still not sure if i can.

Kaya ko naman siguro diba?

I hope.
