"Medyo malamig 'to, Mommy," the Doctor said.
Jared was holding my hand while we were both looking at the small monitor. Halos huminto sa pagtibok ang puso ko when I heard heartbeats. Naramdaman ko ang paghigpit ng hawak ni Jared sa kamay ko.
"Naririnig n'yo 'yun? That's your baby's heartbeat."
I looked at Jared. His eyes were teary.
Nang magbaba siya ng tingin sa akin ay nginitian ko siya. He leaned to kiss my lips.
For some reason ay hindi na muling nakapunta sa bahay ang kahit sino sa parents namin ni Jared. And it calmed me. It made me at peace. Alam kong hindi pa maayos. May mga bagay na kailangang malinawan. But nothing matters more right now than my child. I will deal with all of it later pero mas priority ko ang anak ko kaysa sa iisipin ng kahit na sino.
"Thanks, Ya," aga
