The moment that I opened my eyes once more, I was confused to recognize that I was no longer inside the bathroom. Everything around me was blinding me with brightness of white. The four corners of the room eventually registered to me in that instance.A hospital?It made me rise from my bed, and the second I did, I was surprised that Aunt Lou was already helping me to get up.“Aunt Lou? How did we end up being here?” I had the urged to ask her right away.And she was just smiling back at me. We had to go and bring you here right away. “Why?” I was pretty much bewildered by what was going on around me. I really don’t know how I ended up being here.For some reason, I found myself having some kind of a gap within my memories. It was giving me the discomfort knowing I could not be able to recall what had happened to me at all.And to make things worst, Aunt Lou was not doing anything to help me ease the burden I was having at the moment. She remained silent as though refusing to tell m
“Nooooooo!” I screamed at the top of my lungs.I was sure it was too loud that my voice must have echoed even across the other rooms from where I was confined.Yes, I found myself waking up from what seemed to be a horrifying nightmare. It was just like that dream I had before but this time, it was truly a horrifying nightmare that I don’t wish to see again.I even had to pinch my face right away the moment I woke up just to make sure I was already in my reality. The pain I felt was surely enough to convince me that I was already up in the reality.It wasn’t even that long when Aunt Lou came rushing back inside to see me. “Marga? Child, are you alright? What’s the matter? We heard you screaming from outside.” She urgently stated the moment she was able to walk towards my side.Aunt Lou quickly held my hand and it was the right kind of warmth I was yearning to feel ever since I woke up from that horrible dream. The moment compelled me to feel the urgency to hug her right away. Aunt L
I was still trying to absorb everything that Aunt Lou had just said. I couldn’t possibly bear the thought that the dream I was fearing actually came true.“But how?” I said as my head continued to slowly sway from left to right, still not trying to accept the nightmare that now turned out to be real.Aunt Lou held my hand together as she still wept in sorrow. “When I found you inside the comfort room, you were already unconscious and your thighs were covered in blood. I tried my best to bring you here as quickly as I could to save the baby but it was too late.”And as soon as Aunt Lou said that to me, I immediately felt like the whole room was slowly shrinking and squeezing between. It was as if everything around me was making me suffocate that I could not really breathe normally at all.I could very well see Aunt lou talking to me, her mouth continuously moves and I could not even hear anything she says. It was echoing but was too unclear for me to hear. Her words almost sounded like
Aunt Lou’s head shook slight as reaction depicts how she knew that Regina would really have the capability of doing that against me.“That bitch did that to you?” She asked.And I was able to muster up the energy to reply, “From what I could remember, we had crossed paths when I used the bathroom. I didn’t knew she was there until I got out of the cubicle. I really didn’t want to argue with her but she triggered to, and it ended up in violent way where she slammed me quite hard against the wall. The impact was so hard that my belly got hit so intense and even my head was badly hurt, making me instantly felt dizzy. And before I could even fully lost my consciousness, I heard her screaming blood.”“That must have really caused a great impact on you miscarriage but I think what made you lost the baby was because no help was extended to you. You said that that bitch Regina screamed blood before you lost your consciousness, isn’t that right? Then, if she knew that you are bleeding, she wou
More days passed that I lost track that it had already been over weeks now since I lost my child through a miscarriage. And yet, for some reason the pain was still here and won’t fade away. It hurts the most when you know that you could no longer be able to see your baby that you had been praying to have for so long. I had wished for that baby to come for so long, and now I won’t be able to have the chance to hug him ever.I was still in the middle of my thoughts when all of a sudden, Aunt Lou came from behind me. She was carrying a tray with two cups of coffee. “I see you woke up quite early today.” Aunt Lou swiftly told me the moment that she was able to get a comfy sitting position. Aunt Lou was usually wearing her bubbly face once more and I knew that she would try her best to cheer me up today. We usually do this around in the morning before she prepares to head out for her daily appointments.There are days when I feel like a burden for my aunt knowing that she was already bu
I have pondered that perhaps Aunt Lou could really be right after all. Choosing to stay her would only make me suffer more and recall about the incident of my miscarriage. It was something that still haunted me now in my everyday life. Which was why, I somehow wish to believe that what Aunt Lou told me would really help me in a way.“Could my decision about moving to Vancouver wait?” I abruptly said that caused Aunt Lou to abruptly draw back a bit with a little taken aback face. “May I know why?” she inquired.At first, I was uncertain about telling her all about it. Especially after what happened, I knew that she would only be upset that it was for this reason why I want to delay the plan to move to Vancouver.However, I knew that I must secure putting the connection between me and ex-husband into a closure. Aside from that, I wanted to make sure that I get all the terms that I asked of Justin.It was for that reason I still prefer to be left behind so that I could work on it. This
I am filled with an overwhelming wave of anger, surpassing mere surprise. It is truly disheartening to witness the Montefalcos' insatiable greed, going so far as to strip my late parents of their beloved medical center. "Those heartless individuals will stop at nothing until they have taken everything you hold dear." Aunt Lou expressed her frustration. Learning about the news must have truly ignited her anger. "The medical center is now under our management, and it is unbelievable that anyone would even attempt to claim it from us," she exclaimed with a mix of frustration and disbelief. I sensed that her anger surpassed my own. It came as no surprise that her reaction was as expected, considering Aunt Lou and her husband had taken charge of everything at the medical facility after my parents passed away.Naturally, they have every reason to be furious about the Montefalcos' desires. “We can’t let them get away with this. Do you happen to know a reliable lawyer we could consult for
“It’s you?!” I exclaimed, seeing that it was just none other than the same man, that perverted man, whom I encountered when I disguised as a nurse at the medical facility.He was able to stand up straight as though he had not been severely wounded before. I guess he must have recovered from that wound. I kind of envy him, the wound he had has already healed, whereas mine would probably take a long time, probably never at all, to heal."Oh, look who it is. The nurse who took care of me. What are you doing here all by yourself?” He asked. And just like he did before, he was acting to casual with me again. Still seething with anger from the near collision, I could not help but feel the urge to confront him. "Do not you dare divert the issue here," I said, unable to contain my frustration. You nearly got me killed just now! I vented at him.The man eventually raised his hands before his chest, as though indicating that he surrendered. “Okay, okay, I’m sorry but I was in a bit of a hurry
