I slowly opened my eyes. But I was also blown away by the light of the surroundings. It hurts my eyes and my head. I let my eyesight adjust, for I thought I sleep too long. It feels like my my head is heavey, I still overcome the hangover. Maybe because of the side effect of my menstruation. The same thing happened to me during my third year college. It was almost two months old and my pains were frequent but it was always brief.
"You already said , since you're a Doctor and you don't want to tell me the reason. Don't worry, she is nice."
My forehead knelt slowly of what I've heard from their whisper. I know that was CE but who is he talking to?
I slowly opened my eyes. The slender white woman opened up to me. She smiled so her deep dimple came out. It's cute.
"Promise me one thing," he said. They still didn't wake me up so I just kept listening to them and watching.
The way CE looks at her, there's something fishy. It looks he likes that girl because of the way he stares at her.
"Sure. No problem. Big bro smile and winked more. I was embarrassed of his actions that time.
"You're so corny!"I cut off the moment he was trying to get up. The woman quickly guided me.
"Are you ready for the good news?"she smiled, after I leaned over my bed headboard.
"Maybe?"I'm not sure of the answer. Should I be glad? I looked out the window. This is what I want to be the result of? I took a deep breath and looked at the woman again. Her smile was gone for my answer.
"I'm ready, tell me what's the good news."
The smile on her lip again drew and two circles fell on her cheeks. She has a cute dimple. I bet it is her asset.
"You're 10 weeks pregnant."
My chest quickly exploded and the corner of my eyes warmed. This is it, thanks to Him,he heard my prayer. CE is there, I'm sure he won't let me down, he won't let us down. CE came up to me and hugged me.
"I'm so happy, brother..."
"Me too, lil' sis."I could feel Bro's moaning towards me and he even restricted my hug. His face was submerged.
"That's why you cry?"Bro turned me away from him so I rested loose. It was like a child wiping my tears.
"No, I've endured your smell lately, you've even lowered me to your chest."I was sobbing and I was running out of air.
"What? I took a bath earlier, what are you saying?" He still smelled himself and approached Doc. "Does my smell bad?"
Doc gladly pushed him away and whispered.
Doc came up to my bed and tap my back. I could smell her scent. Strawberry! My mouth immediately watered.
"I want strawberries!"I requested.
"I'll buy you but please be ashamed of Doc."
I immediately got away and covered my face. My cheeks were warm and the wind was almost over.
"I'm sorry."Damn! What is happening to me? Am I crazy? I couldn't look at Doc properly. You're really embarrassing, Katy!
"It's okay. That's because your hormones carry that. It's normal "she said and tap my back again.
"I will take care of your brother first. You go, you buy strawberries."She turned to me. "Anything else?"
I shook my head and let go of the tight smile. She's like a big sister to me. But I think it's normal because she's a doctor.
"Is that all? How about you? Anything you want?"
"I'll text you anyway."Bro nodded. "I'll go then. You behave, Katy."
I stoned him with a pillow. "I'm not a kid anymore!"This guy's annoying. He really thinks that at I'm a child ? Six years old? Hello?!
He shook his way to the door.
“It's good to know that you've met your older brother.”I turned to Doc. She smiled and her dimple showed again.
“Ah, that... I’m also glad. I might be nothing without him.”I smiled when I could remember the memories we shared.
“He always tell me about you. Sometimes if I have no duty, We follow you to watch from a distance. He never leaves you, he always at your back. He is just looking for a perfect timing to introduce himself . Provoking your memories to comeback is really not a good idea. It was like he brought you here. You're in critical and yeah, he blame himself.”
I was shocked over and over again. It won't enter in my mind of what she's saying. My brother admitted that he was always there for me but I didn't expect that to be true because I just know him for a short period of time . Especially when I first saw him at one of the restaurants in Bagiuo. He did almost nothing but stare at something I didn't care about because I was overwhelm on my cellphone and that was my first time to buy something from my salary.
“Did you know when you interact with him ,he came to me again? I'm his personal Doctor but he went to other because he was angry at the time I couldn't tell where you were going. If I am not mistaken that was the time your new foster father's wife drove you away.”
“That guy is a total jerk .”I thought the blanket was still in my leg. “When did he again interact with you Miss Doctor?-“
“Oh. I'm sorry.”she reached for her hand for shake hands so I reached for that too.
“oh, It's Katy Mae. Can I call you Sis?”I asked. I feel like this day is not over If I can't call her Sis.
“Sure. No problem, sis.”She waved and smiled. She's really cute. I want to have one too. Sis? As in sister? If only my brother is here I would probably assumed he's happy.
“About your question earlier... Actually last week he suddenly showed to me. He scheduled a checkup that should have been open.”
I was relieved. What if big sis had a lover because bro's busy with his ego? I'll actually scold him later.
“Uhm. C-can you sleep here?”I stooped and bitten my own lips with shame. I'm being spoiled here.
My chest exploded loudly. Shocks I need to think of a reason.
"Why?"
“Because bug bro's going to cook lasagna. He's really good at cooking and he just cooked it for me. I want you to taste that Sis...” I avoided looking at her. I could feel the heat lift on my side cheeks.
“Oh wow. I love that. Sure, no problem.”
“Really? Well! Thank you big Sis!”
I immediately hugged her. When I realized what I was doing. Okay... I'm getting weirder.
“Would you mind if I ask, where is the father of your baby?”
I lost my smile and avoided looking. I forgot about it. How can I tell her about this if thst person has a current girlfriend? Surely I will look like a mistress
“If you’re not ready to share, don’t force yourself okay? Don't be stressed of my question. Get along with the baby. You should fill with positivity not the other way around.”
I held my stomach. Be with Mommy okay? Don't follow your daddy. I'll take care of you...
I suddenly turned to the door when it opened. “I’m home.”
“Here comes the devil...” I joked. He's cute when he's annoyed.
I stood up and approached my brother. He really smells. I covered my nose and quickly approached his side.
“You cook me lasagna, brother. I love you,!”I said to him and looked at him.
I grinned to come and stay with big sis.
“What did you say to him and he looks like he's shocked?”whispered by big sis as she watched my older brother.
“Something that first time he heard from me.”I laughed when he smiled. He seems to understand what I said.
Bro shook his head “You really played well. Tsk. I'm really going to get Cole here. Bratinella!”
“I know you can do that, CE. Shoo! Cook there.”I drove him away by throwing a pillow. I have a plan for him. If it fails then I will really scold him for sure.
“I think it’s him.”
I looked at big Sis. She is holding a photo album. My eyes widened when I saw that she was holding our album she was looking. This can't be.
