Sandro

I just finished my meeting and I am fixing myself because I'll look for Chantall, she even left her phone her.

Where did she go? Mama Meldy also is looking for her so I need to find her. This place is so huge and I don't know where to find her.

I dialed Simon's phone to ask if kasama nila si Chantall, I even called Cara but wala daw. So for sure she's having a me time. Well, that's good for her, for sure she's so tired interacting with the people. I just take my time looking for her para sabay na din ang pag-ikot ko dito sa Okada, hindi ko pa naikot ito eh.

I went on The Garden first and Chantall is not there, inikot ko na ang lahat but I still didn't see her. So I went to the pool area and there's no one there, the pool is too wide but walang tao, kahapon madaming tao ang naliligo dito eh.

I am just roaming my vision on the whole pool when I saw someone on the pool. My vision is not that clear that there's someone who's floating in the water.. Does she need help? Or nagffloating lang ito. But, wait.

wait, parang suot na damit din 'yun ni Chantall eh. Lumubog na ito and I inikot ko ang tingin ko at walang tao doon ni isa. Walang staffs, walang life guard.

Fuck! It's freaking Chantall. I know it. She's drowning! she can't swim. For fuck sake.

"Help! Chantall! Fuck!" I yelled and I ran but there's someone who jumped on the pool and swim on her place so all I need to do is to run and find some staffs.

I ran so fast and when I see the bellboy I yelled.

"Hey! help! May nalulunod! It's an emergency!" i told the bellboy and because of panic, natulak ko ito.

"Call 911!" I yelled and I ran back on the pool,  with Jillian? Jillian helped her and I went on the side of the pool and tinulungan ito.

My heartbeat starts racing nung nakita ko si Chantall na walang malay.

"Chan? Chan? Love?" I asked her and slightly tapped her cheeks to wake her up but she's not waking up. I checked her pulse and it's have a slow palpitation. So I lay her on the floor and start doing CPR,

The medical staffs are on the way on us with their emergency bed.

"Sir, excuse me. Let me." The rescuer said and i stood up and stared at Jillian. The staff gave her a towel and she covered herself.

"Jillian? What the hell is this? I know, Jill! I know you did this to her! Ganun ka ba kahibang?" I yelled at her and went in front of her but she just gave me a smirk at may gana pa akong irapan.

"What?" matapang nitong saad so i gasped and avoided her gaze because I feel that my tears are about to fall. I pursed my lips at pasimpleng pinunasan ang luha ko.

I know, this is her fault, because she can't save her when she's not around in the first place, right?

"Jill, please! Tama na. This is too much na. Ganiyan ba kahalang ang bituka mo para patayin Siya?"

"Sandro? Wala ka bang utang na loob sa akin? Kung hindi dahil sa akin, patay na yang babaeng yan.  Sisihin mo ang mga kakulangan ng staffs dito!" she yelled at me back.  How can I trust her words, when at the first place nagpakita na siya ng masamang motibo towards sa akin lalong-lalo na kay Chantall.


"You owe me a lot, Sandro. You owe me a lot so make sure that you will pay for it." my jaw clenched on what she said at hinilamos ko ang palad ko sa mukha ko because of the frustration. I shake my head and stared back at her.

"I. owe. you. nothing! I owe you nothing ever since in the first place you did this. You freaking did this and make a show telling to everyone that you saved her. Anong akala mo sakin Jillian? Bobo? Walang utak? Tanga? I didn't study abroad to be like that."

"Ma'am, Sir! Please stop, she's not still waking up. I think she needs to bring in the hospital." the rescuer said and I saw Chantall on the floor, still giving a CPR.

"Sandro, bago mo ako paratangan ng ganiyan, siguraduhin mo na may pruweba ka! Ako na nga ang tumulong, ako pa sinisi. Ganiyan ka ba talaga, Sandro?" I stared at the staffs who is watching at us, good thing no one is taking a video or a picture.

"Do you have a CCTV here right?" I asked the bellboy that I asked for help a while ago and he nodded.

"Good then. I will hire an investigation for this." I told him and he slowly nodded, so I looked back at Jillian, she's breathing heavily and she think that I can't read the people Infront of me?

"Pag may nangyaring masama sa girlfriend ko, Jillian. Hindi ko alam kung anong gagawin ko sa'yo." mariin na saad ko dito. She started crying and trembling in her place. What a good actress. Wow!


"Ano na namang kaartehan 'yan, Jill. If you say that you did this to her. Papatawarin naman kita agad. Basta aminin mo lang. Please lang." Saad ko dito and she keeps on crying

"Sandro? Ganun ba talaga ang tingin niyo sa akin? Ganun kasama ang uga--."

"Oo! Oo Jillian!" sigaw ko dito. My tears began to fall as I see Chantall na nililipat sa stretcher.

"Chan, Chantall? Oh my Chantall." I stared at Mama Meldy who is on her wheelchair went on Chantall, everyone is here and I see Jamie walk towards Jillian and slapped her hard. Everyone gasped because of what Jamie did.

"Jamie!" Kuya Matt said and hinila si Jamie palayo kay Jillian na umiiyak.

"What's happening here? Jillian." Tricia came in the scene and she ran towards her sister who is crying.

"T*ngina mo! Jillian! Ang sama mo! Ang lala mo! Sobra ka na! Demonyita ka ba?!" sigaw ni Jamie and Matthew is holding her arms para hindi ito makalapit kay Jillian.

Mom went on me and hugged me. Mama Meldy is on Chantall, worriedly asking the staffs of what happened.

"Atty Gadon is there to find out who did this and what happened. Don't worry." Mom said and tapped my shoulders. 

"Kung gusto mo si Sandro!, Lumaban ka ng patas! Tangina ka!" sigaw ni Jamie kay Jillian!

"Enough this commotion! Take Chantall to the ambulance! Tricia, dalhin mo na yan sa kwarto ninyo. Jamie, kumalma ka! Kumalma ka, parang-awa mo na!" Sigaw ng tatay ko at naagaw naman nito ang lahat ng attention.

"How can I calm myself when I know that this demon tried to kill Chantall." sagot ni Jamie nito sa Tatay ko.

"Jamie, please. Stop," pagmamakaawa ni Matt sa girlfriend nito.

"Hindi ko nga ginawa 'yun. Wala akong ginawa, ako na nga ang tumulong sa kaniya, gaganiyanin niyo pa ako?" Jillian defended herself in between her sobs so I stared at her.

"Shut up, Jillian! Hindi ka ba nakokonsensiya? Hindi ka ba naaawa? Look at her? Jillian! Pakiusap! Umamin ka na!" sigaw ko dito and Mom held my hands to help me calm down.

"Sandro, calm down," Mom said calmly so i stared at her with my tears.

"Ma, I can't freaking lose her. Ayaw kong mawala siya at yung worst, sa paraan niya." saad ko at itinuro si Jillian.

"Sir, Ma'am, dalhin na po natin siya sa Ambulansiya, baka hindi na po niya makayanan."

"Jillian, I'm telling you! Huwag ako. Huwag siya ang banggain mo because lahat gagawin ko para sa kaniya. Makulong man ako o hindi." Mariin kong saad at sumama na kay Chantall, the PSG went on us for protecting us because for sure everyone will take a photo or a video.

We went inside the ambulance and they are still giving her a CPR and an oxygen. I held her hands and just prayed to God to save her. Oh God!


"There are a lot of water in her lungs, Sandro. I think she was on the water for about 30 minutes or more. So she must wake up to make sure that she's safe." the nurse said and I nodded. We arrived at the hospital immediately and they enter Chantall on the emergency room. Mom is here, also Mama Meldy, Jamie and Cara is also here.

"You okay, Son?" Mom asked me so I stared at her,

"Oh, God? Kawawa si Chantall, naaawa ako sa kaniya. Bakit ba nangyari ito sa kaniya?" Mama Meldy said and wiped her tears. From what I've seen a while ago, Chantall is very special on our family, she really is part of our family and everyone gets worried if they knew something bad happened to her.

"It's okay to cry, Sandro. If you want to cry, go." Mom said so I shake my head and just massaged my forehead.

Please God, make Chantall safe. I can't lose her, please! I started crying because of the frustration, anger and fear that was built in my chest since a while ago and Mom sat beside me to comfort me. Mama Meldy also caress my shoulder and everyone went on me.

"Ma, alam niyo naman na hindi ko siya kayang mawala. I'm too weak for this, in terms of this." I sain in between my sobs. Mom hugged me like I am a 3 year old crying because my toy was taken.

"Sshhh! She will be safe, she's safe. Don't worry about her. She's strong." Pagaalo sa akin ng nanay ko.

"Darling, your Mom is right, we all know Chantall is strong so she will fight. She will be okay, the Doctors are helping her. Don't worry." Mama Meldy kissed my forehead.

After a minute, I stopped crying and the doctor went on us.

"How's she?" Mama Meldy asked and she's holding my hands.

"Who's the guardian?" The Doctor asked so I stood up and cleared my throat.

"I'm Doctora Haven Tuazon, kaano-ano mo ang pasyente, sir?" she introduced herself and asked me,

"I'm the boyfriend. How is she?" I asked her. She sighed and everyone stared at the doctor with the fear. My breathing became heavier because of her sigh.

"Doc, why? What happened to her?" I asked her and Mama Meldy hold my hands tighter.

"She's safe now." I slowly closed my eyes and the tears began to fall from my eyes because of the 3 words that we heard from her.

Thank you, Lord! Thank you so much, Lord.

"She woke up a while ago because she.. her body let out the water. For now she's under observation and we need to do some undergo para mawala ang remaining water sa lungs niya. Good thing her body cooperated kaya madami-daming tubig ang inilabas niya." I hugged my Mom because of the good news that I heard.

"Mom, Mama Meldy. My Chantall is safe." I told them and they smiled at me.

"See, I told you. She's strong." Mama Meldy answered

Chantall

I woke up feeling there's something that was attached on my face, and as I opened my eyes, my eyes grew wider because it's all freaking white and there's a light.

God? Patay na ba ako? Where am I? Nasa langit na ba ako? Patay na ako? Oh my God! No.

"Love, you're awake? Thank God! Wait, I'll call the doctor." ay charot! Hindi pa ako patay, dito si Sandro eh, masamang damo to eh, kaya sure akong buhay pa ako.

I get my oxygen mask because I feel like I'm going to vomit, I started coughing and I am panicking looking for something na masusukahan. Oh God!

I went up and I bring the IV Pole with me to the cr and sa sink ako sumuka.

Hoi! Buntis ba ako? Ba't ako sumusuka? Tapos yung sinuka ko pa puro tubig. Omg! Pano ako nabuntis eh wala pang nangyari samin.

"Thank God, you vomited the remaining water." pagsulpot ng doctor kasama ang Nurse nito. I smiled at them and they smiled at me back, Sandro on the other hand is worried about me.

"Hi po." I greeted the doctor and the Nurse accommodated me pabalik sa bed ko. There's a lot of flowers on the base, may basket pa ng fruits.

Oh shoot! Fridge! Fudge! Did I just ruin the birthday celebration of Mr.President? Holy Cow! For sure nakaabala ako. Jesus! No. Gosh!

"Miss, kalma. Huwag kang magpanic." The nurse said kasi ramdam niya na nababalisa ako.

They did some check ups on me, they cheked my heart rate, my BP, my everything! Lahat na and they asked if okay na ang breathing ko without oxygen mask and I answered yes.

"You are in your bed for 2 days na. And thank God you woke up." Sandro said at nanlaki mata ko. For real? Two days? As in?

"We found out, Jillian kicked you and you fell. She's just watching at you drowning for 32 minutes and when she saw me coming, she jumped on the pool to save you." Sandro told me as he's putting a water on a glass and gave it to me.

"Serioso? Siya sumipa sa akin tapos tinulungan din ako? Parang gaga! Death or Life ata gusto niya laruin." pagbibiro ko and I drink the water.

"Baliw ba yun? Nilunod ako para sagipin?" natatawang tanong ko. Baka nga may Psychological problem si Jillian.

Should I refer her to my Psychiatrist? Baka she needs help eh. Kawawa naman. Hay! Sino ba kasing matino ang gusto kang lunurin tapos sasagipin? Parang laro lang ah.

"Aw! What's wrong with you?" I exclaimed, namimitik ng noo. Ang sakit ko. I caress my forehead.

"May gana ka pang magbiro in that state of yours, Chan? Really?" Panenermon na ni Tito Sandro. Eh kasi naman,

"Why? But Love. Do you think Jillian needs a psychological help?" I asked Sandro so he stared at me and he put his pointed finger on his chin like he's thinking.


"I think. Ipapamental na ba?" I smiled at him and nodded. But where's Jillian nga pala na?

"We arrested her for what she did to you." Sandro told me, did he just read my thoughts?

Mind reader yarn?

But? They arrested Jillian? For real? Why? I mean, yeah! Deserve but.

"Sands, do you think arresting her is too much?" I asked Sandro sweetly because for sure magagalit ito.

"What the hell, Chantall?" sabi ko nga eh. Dapat nanahimik nalang ako.

"Ikaw na nga ang muntik mamatay, tapos yung pagkakulong niya pa yung too much?" eh bat galit? Di naman inaano.

"Bakit ka galit?" I told him and pouted, he sighed and went on me to hug me.

"I'm sorry, Love. I'm not mad. It's just that. I'm worried. Muntik ka na mawala sa akin." I hugged him back. So muntik na ako mamatay? Omg! Pero buhay pa ako? Masamang damo ata 'to. Hahaha!

"Di kasi ako tinanggap sa heaven, Love. Overqualified daw ako." pagbibiro ko dito.
