CHAPTER 4 – Xian Who?

Follow Your Heart

Gerald was left in the hospital. He asked their friends na magpahinga na muna at bumalik na lang kinabukasan since isang bantay lang ang pwedeng magstay overnight sa hospital. umuwi na rin muna ang mommy niya with Ken.

While Kim’s still peacefully asleep, Gerald can’t help but cry. Seeing her in a situation like this with stiches all over her body, a bandage wrapped on her head with blood stain on the right side and a braise on her neck, she her face lightly

“Honey, ang daya mo naman eh! Di ba nagpromise ka sa kin na magiging masaya ka na? Bakit ganito yung nangyari?” … he said while crying

The next day, Kim’s brothers, sisters and other relatives arrived all the way from Cebu. T

hey asked Gerald na umuwi muna to freshen up at makapagpahinga.

“Ge, don’t worry nandito naman kami, sige na, magpahinga ka muna kahit sandali” Lakam uttered …

“Salamat ate kams, sige, mauna muna ako. Babalik ako agad. Magdadala na rin ako ng makakain” …

“Wag ka na mag abala sa food, okay lang kami dito. May canteen naman sa baba.” Twinkle said

It was already seven in the evening when Gerald came back.

“Sorry, may inayos pa kasi ako kaya ako na late. Kamusta si Kim?” …

“Eto, ganun pa rin” William Jr. said.

“Kumain na ba kayo? May dala pala akong luto ni Mommy, kumain muna kayo” …

“Sige, thanks kuya Ge. Kainin na lang namin to sa Canteen para hindi na magkalat dito” sabi ni Jp.

“Sige Ge, baba muna kami. Call us na lang pag may kailangan ka” …

Gerald nodded

He got a warm towel and scrubbed it lightly on Kim’s face and arms.

Suddenly, he felt something move.

He saw Kim’s hand  and head moving.

“Kim? Honey? Can you hear me? Hon? It’s me!” …

Gerald keeps on talking while Kim’s just murmuring when she opened her eyes.

“Hon! I’m glad you’re awake! Anong gusto mong kainin? Tell me kung anong gusto mo” …

“Where am I?” Kim said groggily “Nandito tayo ngayon sa hospital. Don’t worry honey, You’re safe here” …

“Thank you, Sino ka?” … Kim said confused

“Honey! It’s me! Gerald, don’t you remember me? I’m your future husband!” …

“Excuse me??? Nababaliw ka na ba sir???

Hindi nga kita kilala tapos sasabihin mo ikaw mapapangasawa ko?”

Gerald knew exactly the consequence of Kim’s condition so he called up her siblings and the doctor. When they arrived inside her room,

Kim excitedly said “Ate Kams! Kuya Wils! Ate Twinkle and Jp!” …

“Kimmy” they said altogether and ran to hug her.

Gerald was still frozen for a while. The fact that Kim remembers all the people around her except him makes him more nervous and scared.

The door then opened and Kim’s friends came inside. “Maj! Mel! Jake! Matteo!” Kim blurted out …

“Sis! Maja shouted for joy.

Gerald still can’t believe it.

“Doc, bakit parang ako lang ang hindi niya maalala dito? Kung may amnesia siya, bakit isa lang yung nakalimutan niya?” he asked with a tear on his lid

“May mga cases iho na ganyan. Kalian pa ba nakilala ng pasyente ang mga kaibigan niya?” ..

“Childhood friends ang mga iyan doc” …

“Ikaw? Kailan mo nakilala ang pasyente?” …

“Six years ago doc, nung college kami” …

“Maybe she can’t remember the past six years of her life? May mga situations kasi na sobrang fresh pa sa memory ng isang patient bago siya naaksidente. So lahat ng present memories niya ay posibleng makalimutan niya at maalala niya lang ang past niya.” …

“Pero doc, kalian niya ako maaalala?” …

“I don’t know iho. Maybe after a month or two? After a year? Two Years? Or maybe never… sa ngayon, lahat ng daily routines niya sa present ay ipagawa mo lang sa kanya hanggang sa matulungan nung maibalik ang fresh memories niya.

Masayang nakikipagkwentuhan si Kim with her families and friends when Gerald interrupted them

“Honey, kain ka muna! Dala ko yung favorite Adobo mo” …

“Ate kams, sino ba yung lalaking yan? Kanina kasi, pinagtripan niya ako eh. Sabi niya siya raw mapapangasawa ko. Kilala niyo ba siya?” …

“Oh my gosh! Napasigaw ni Mel.

Lahat sila ay speechless at hindi alam ang sasabihin.

“Kimmy? Don’t you remember Gerald? He’s right, fiancée ka niya” …

Kim got confused “Ano ba kayo? May boyfriend ako, Si Xian. Tsaka di ba sabi ko sa inyo magpapakasal lang ako sa lalaking mahal ko. Eh hindi ko nga siya kilala. Nasaan si Xian? Siya yung totoong mahal ko! Ilayo niyo sa kin ang lalaking yan!” she cried out loudly.

Gerald was all hurt on the way Kim reacted but he can’t do anything but to understand her due to her situation.

“Sino si Xian? Siya ba yung boyfriend ni Kim bago ako? Bakit ako nagseselos ng ganito well in fact, yung Xian na yun ay part lang naman ng past niya?... Lord, please help Kim! Tulungan niyo po siya Lord please…
