Victoria's POV" So you're telling me that I'm almost 25 already? Is this legit?" Paghuhuramentado ni Valentine kay Dad." Am I this old?"" Well, you're not that old at all. It's just thI glared at Azithere. To think that I'm almost as old as him. " What?"" How old are you again?" Tanong ko" Well, to be completely honest. I'm 30."I almost choked on my orange juice. " Wow that's old but fuck it, I'm into that shit anyways."" I don't know if that's a good statement or are you perhaps insulting me wife. "" Like the hell I care about your age. There's nothing wrong with yours! How am I supposed to return to school with this original Birth Certificate!"" Are you really going to finish Nursing?"" Yes."" From a killing machine to a whole different career. " Side comments ni Skyler" Shut up you dumbass. Isa ka pa!" Sita ni Valentine sabay batok. " Are you perhaps pissed that you're 6 months older than me?"" I said shut up!" I just laugh at the sight of my sister. For the past
3 YEARS LATERVictoria's POVYung mga hakbang ko ay bilang dahil nagmamadali ako na makapunta sa nurse station." Doc, si patient Maceda po nag Desaturation. 88% ang O2 and his other vital signs are also dropping." Sabi ko." Get the cart Miss Lopez." Utos sakin ni doc.Agad ko naman sinunod at tinulak ang cart sa room ng patient ko. Nakita ko kung paano i asses ni doc yung patient. Tinaas nya din yung level ng oxygen ng pasyente dahil mababab yung 02 saturation nya. At Maya maya pa ay inutusan nya ako na ibigay sakanya ang norepinephrine. " Here doc. " Sabi koNag observe lang ako sa ginawa nya at mga ilang minuto pa ay tumaas na ang saturation ng oxygen nya at yung BP nya ay unti unti na ding tumataas. " Monitor the patient's Vital signs every 15 minutes and report immediately if there's any problem. I'll take my rounds in other patients. " " Thanks Dad- I mean Doctor Lopez. "Nginitian lang ako ni Dad at saka lumabas na. We're working in a General hospital so that our organiza
Victoria's POV" Yung Dialysate, constant na 500 talaga yan then yung blood flow rate nya diba 250 para hindi mag clotting yung dugo. Make sure na kapag mag alarm yung venous pressure nya, I reset mo lang at I long press para bumalik sa Dialysis." Paliwanag sakin ni Doctor Kento. " And you should monitor his Vital signs every 30 minutes."" Noted po Doc. " tumango lang ako habang nakikinig sa discussion ni Doc. First time ko kasi mag handle ng dialysis patient. At medyo kinakabahan ako dahil minsan nagtotoxic sila during session. Si Dr. Kento, isa syang kilalang nephrologist dito sa department. As a matter of fact, he was known for his sharp mind and strict adherence to protocol kaya sobrang kabado ako ako ngayong under nya ako. He acts like a boss. Dinig ko perfectionist din sya at lagi nyang sinisiguro na detalyado lahat ng mga nirereport mo sakanya at tama. Dapat dim hindi ka sumablay sa mga procedures mo dahil kapag pumalpak ka raw. Magdasal dasal ka na.Habang nagbabasa ako
Victoria's POVIt's my last day sa rotation ko ngayon dito sa Ward dahil malilipat kami ni Val sa Operating room next week. Kaya todo health teaching ako sa pasyente ko ng mga ganito at ganyan habang si Dr. Kento ay nag oobserve dahil sya ang magbibigay ng grades ko at ipapasa sa Clinical Instructor ko. Punyeta akala ko ba Nurse to nurse to. " Limit lang po natin ang water intake natin kapag nadischarge kayo dito. Saka mas maganda po kapag 3-4 times a week yung dialysis nyo." Sabi ko. " Wag po kayong mag alala may discount naman po yung mga senior citizen dito sa hospital." Sabi ko. Medyo chismosa ako sa station kaya pati yun nabanggit ko.Tumawa lang si Mr. Maceda sa sinabi ko at saka sumagot. "Naku Miss Lopez mas marami pang pera ang kinikita ko kaysa sa gastos ko sa dialysis. But I appreciate your concern and I appreciate that you have taken care of me even for a short period of time." Sabi niya. Saka bigla syang bumulong sa tenga ko. " Anthracosauria and Lioness are my daughter
Victoria's POVI cracked my back nang makalabas ako ng operating room dala ang cart na naglalaman ng mga operating tools na need hugasan. Kidney transplant is awesome pero parang magkakavaricose vein naman ako." Good Work Miss Lopez." Sabi ni Doctor Kento at naghugas na ng kamay nya. " Wash the instruments carefully." Bilin nya. Tumango lang ako at nagtungo sa area kung saan hinuhugasan ang mga instruments.Pakanta kanta pa ako habang naghuhugas ng instruments. This course is really compatible sakin. I can still see blood without killing people. Well, that part is a little morbid. Don't do it kids. Nang masiguro ko na maayos na ang lahat ay nagbihis na ako ng ward uniform ko at nagpaalam sa station at kay Doc Kento." Thank you so much for taking care of me. I'll see you tomorrow." Pagpapaalam ko. " Sandali lang, here, you might want to keep the information of your patient. I copied the important parts while doing post op diagnosis and orders." Sabi ni Doc at saka iniabot ang bond
VICTORIA'S POVI can feel my heart pounded against my ribs, a drumbeat of anger and confusion. How could Azithere do this to me? How could he be so brazen, so callous, to bring another woman into our home? "He'll explain everything, I bet may paliwanag naman sya kahit papaano." I muttered. " But damn! Nakakainis. Kakauwi lang nya at sa ganoong sitwasyon pa kami mag aabot? Hindi manlang sya nagsabi. I should have prepped myself. Ni hindi ako naka make up. Stupid Husband! The siren he's with looks so gorgeous. Putang ina mo Azithere." pagmumura ko.I immediately grabbed my phone, and dialed Valentine's number." Hey sis! Lexus is really looking for you. Bakit ang tagal mo?"" Val, pasensya ka na. Something had come up and I wouldn't be able to join you for dinner tonight. "" Teka lang. Bakit biglaan?" " I have no time to explain. Pasensya ka na." Sabi ko at pinatay ang tawag. I slipped into my car, while my mind is still racing. I can still hear and remember Azithere's words: "
Azithere's POVI can't seem to think straight. I'm really doing it formally this time. But why am I being nervous? " Goodluck brother in law. " Walang ganang thumbs up ni Valentine. " Dapat umoo na si Victoria kasi kinasabwat mo pa kaming lahat sa almost failed mo na plano." natatawa nyang sabi.Of all things na pinlano ko, mas kinabahan pa yata ako dito na pumalpak. Huminga ako ng malalim nang magbukas ang pinto kung saan sya iniwan ni Aiken.Kasabay ng paglabas nya ay ang pagsabog ng confetti petals na kinuha pa sa totoong bulaklak. I hand her the boquet. Grabe na ang kabog ng dibdib ko but I still manage to pull a genuine smile towards her. " What on earth?" Kahit nakakunot ang noo nya ay maganda parin ito. Damn, she's so beautiful that I can't take my eyes on her." I love you Victoria. From the very first day we met. Hindi ko na kaagad maipaliwanag ang nararamdaman ko. Its been a long journey. A very rough one. We had our ups and downs. I apologize for every pain that i infli
Valentine's POV "Damn it, what the hell happened?!" Sigaw ko. " Talagang nagbarilan ah." " Do you think natamaan si Azithere?" Tanong sakin ni Skyler. " What do you think? Boss mo din si Azithere diba?" Sinamaan ko sya ng tingin. " Marunong ba umilag sa bala yun?" "Relax. Patay na patay yun sa asawa nya. She won't shoot him. Alam nyo puntahan nalang natin sila." Singit ni Helfeim. " Besides, Victoria's got better aim than Azithere. She wouldn't miss kung babarilin nya talaga si Azithere." My darling Azithere's face would be a waste kapag namatay sya." Pagdadrama nya. " You better not say that in front of my sister. Yang kulot mong buhok na ilang taon mong inaalagaan, magiging straight yan kapag hinila nya." " I think Azithere needs to learn a lesson this time. Almost 7 months ba naman iwan ang asawa." Cazen's voice. " Maybe he needs a little bit of a reality check." A low snicker emanated from the window. It was Vivienne, radiating an aura of barely contained excitement. Kita
Victoria’s POV" Yes dad, kasama ko si Azithere." My paranoid father and boss keeps on calling dahil ayaw ko ng may sumusunod sa amin. " Are you sure you don't want them to atleast shadow you?" Sabi nya sa kabilang linya." Alam mo dad, ano pa at naging commando ako dati. Napapraning lang po kayo."" It's not that I'm paranoid. I'm just 1 about you. Your church wedding is in 6 months time and hindi ako papayag na may mangyari pa. "" There are several CCTVs here. You can ask the death knights to hack and monitor the cameras. Hindi kami lalayo. Okay na ba yon?" I heard a deep sigh before sya sumagot. " Just be careful iha."Ibinulsa ko na ang cellphone ko habang naglalakad kami ni Azithere along the bustling night market dito sa seaside. " How's your dad?"" Ayun praning nanaman. "He chuckled. " Alam mo mas safe ako kapag kasama ka." He then kissed mu forehead. Damn. It was our first date night and for our first date night. Hindi ito yung ay mga fancy na restaurant reservations,
Victoria's POV I opened my eyes at napangiti ako nang makita ang maamo nyang mukha habang tulog na tulog. It's been 2 weeks since that dramatic engagement proposal we both had. And he promised na kung aalis sya ay sandali lang at babalik din kaagad. Sumiksik ako sa dibdib nya at yumakap. Damn, I don't want to leave the bed. Masyadong masakit ang balakang ko. " Kuya! Breakfast is ready. Bumaba na kayo jan. Tama na yang loving loving nyo ni Sister. May duty pa yan." Sigaw ni Aiken sa Intercom. " Be there in a second Aiken!" Sagot ko." Expect your food to be laced with poison if I don't see you here in 5 minutes." Pagalit nyang I forgot to mention na dito pala muna sya namamalagi. Ginising ko na si Azithere dahil nakakahiya naman kay Aiken at sya na ang nagluto ng umagahan ko. " Wake up sleepyhead." " Good morning." He kissed my forehead kahit nakapikit pa. Nauna na akong bumangon and grabbed my clothes at isinuot yon. " Get dressed. Sabayan mo kami ni Aiken mag breakfast. " S
