Santos
I woke up in a hospital bed, I feel like my whole body got hit by an 8 wheeler truck. I tried to sit but Rose caught me, she stopped me and let me lay on the bed again. she called the nurse, the nurse checks me and asks a lot of questions, that I answered honestly, they made me drink a pill to ease my pain. when the nurses left it's just me and Rose
"How long was I out?" I asked her
"4 days" she sat beside me and touch my palm "I owe you my whole life George, and I want to thank you" my heart warmed hearing how sincere she is. I smiled at her "anyway George I was trying to contact your parents but it seems that they're hard to reach, may alam ka bang way na ma contact sila, so that we can inform them what happens, I'm sure nag aalala na sila sayo." she said while peeling a piece of apple, I was silent for awhile I'm not sure if may pakealam sila.
"No need to bother, they don't need to know," I said to her, nilapit nya naman sa bibig ko ang isang hiwa ng masanas, I blushed but still opened my mouth a little.
"You need to eat George," she told me "I'll talk to your doctors later, ch-check ko kung kaylan ka pwedeng ma discharge." she keeps on feeding me
"Where are the kids and what happen to Jaxon?" I asked her
"Jaxon's in jail and the kids are with my parents, don't worry safe sila and it's all thanks to you" she placed the knife beside the table and held my hands, she's about to
"You don't have to do this Rose"
"But I want to" insist the sabi nya, napabuntong hininga ako and stared at her we were still looking at each other when Alexis burg inside my room
"Kiss already" She jokingly commented, I blushed she may saw us looking at each other. " I bought flowers and a get well soon card for you George" binaba nya sa bed side table ko ang mga bulaklak "Kamusta naman ang pakiramdam mo George?"
"Pain" I simply say, I sat up a little Rose helped me and I get the card from my bedside table, I smiled when I read the get well soon from the twins. I never really met the two but I'm guessing there as sweet as their mother, I gave a little glance to Rose
"Now let's talk about getting in touch to your parents," Alexis said while giving me a serious look
"There's nothing to talk about Alexis, I don't want to bother them," I said to her
"George magulang mo parin sila, they need to know what happens to you" I sighed
"We're still not in good terms Alexis, I bet they don't even care about what happened to me," I said in a low voice, the look in there eyes I hate it "don't look at me like that, I don't need anyone's pity," I told to both of them "Besides sanay na ako, it's already been so many years, I never heard any anything about them" I sat there silently
"Mauna na ako, may wedding pa akong kaylangan supplian ng mga bulaklak" Tumayo na ang huli while Rose is still Sitting down and looked at Alexis "Get well George Okay" hinawakan pa neto ang aking kamay, saka lumapit sa pinto at lumabas
Naiwan kami ni Rose sa kwarto ng tahimik, I just stared at the sky outside the window
"6 years old palang ako alam ko na iba ako sa ibang mga batang babae" pag babale ko ng katahimikan "I always play with toys that are for boys and I don't like being called Georgina because it's too girly" I looked at her she moved closer to me "when I was 10 years old I discovered what to call myself, I was a Lesbian and you know girls are not nice back then because the only person I trusted betray me and said bad stuff behind my back" I sigh
"Tinago ko ang tunay na sarili ko, I become distant to others, nag focus ako sa studies ko, until I met one person she's a lesbian too and we become really good friends, she encourages me to come out and be true to myself kasi un lang ang mag papasaya sakin so I did what she said, I talk to my parents and tell them everything and they dis-approved about me being gay" pag papatuloy ko
"They told me that I was just influenced by my friend that I just need therapy it's like my sakit ako na pwedeng madaan sa gamot, I never saw my friend again, I become so tired and so I did I pretend to be something that I'm not I started dating guys but I never was happy until I met this amazing woman Emily, nag date kami ng pasikreto I was not ready to face my parents but I did eventually after I graduated Law School I confess our relationship to them, my dad was furious he did not approve the relationship he wants us to break up but I love this girl too much that I just her over my family, since then I never heard anything about them ever again"
"I'm sorry about that George" Rose held my hand she looked straight into my eyes I don't know but hind lang awa ang nakikita ko sa mga mata nya, Tenderness yun ang nakikita ko sa kanya, and I can't help myself and lean closer to her and kissed her on the lips, It was just a peck but I think she did not like it.
"I'm sorry Rose I didn't mean it" sabi ko sakanya, there is panic on my voice. she stood up and went to the washroom, she was there for a little while, maybe I offended her, I don't know what to do and to say, pag labas nya ay nag ka tinginan kami
"I need to talk to your doctor will you be okay here alone?" she asks, maybe iniiwas nya. I just nodded and she quickly went out
**********
It's been 2 days since I was discharged in the Hospital, here I am in my porch sitting and drinking a cup of green tea. I was thinking about Rose and the kiss we shared, did I offend her? We never talk about it, I tried to talk to her but she been avoiding the subject. I sigh deeply I shouldn't have done it, I know that she's straight maybe I scared her.
I was deeply thinking when I heard my doorbell rang, Tumayo ako para buksan ito, to my surprise in front of me is Rose. she smiled at me and gave me a hug, I let her in. Dire-diretsyo ito sa kusina like she have been here before, I followed her and I sat to the counter table while she let out something on her bag
"I baked cookies, do you like cookies?" I just nodded "How are you, George?"
"I'm fine" simpleng sagot ko "Rose about the other day-"
"We don't have to discussed that anymore George, you said sorry and you didn't mean it so what would you want us to talk about?" she sounded a little pissed. I kept my mouth shut because that made me chill. " you don't kiss someone then regret it after" she said like a whisper but still it reaches my ears. she composed herself after and gave me a sharp look
"I'm not sorry about the kiss Rose, I just didn't know what else would say I don't want to offend you, you know that I'm not straight and I know that you are, I don't want you to feel uncomfortable towards me" I explained, she walks toward me in between my legs and touch my hands, she game me a come here gesture I lean forward close to her face and she whispered
"I don't know but I kinda like the kiss," she said I felt my face burned "makes me wanna kiss you right now" I never knew that shes so bold and she did kiss me, I was a little shock about the kiss but soon after naka recover ako sa shockness ko ay bumaba ako sa pag kaka upo ko sa counter.
I kissed her slowly but wanting, and she did the same. I felt like my head got lighter, her kiss was so good that I felt that I wanted more and more of her.
And that kiss ended in bed
