A Mother's Heart

Althea's POV Katulad ng mga nakaraang araw... Abala na naman ako sa trabaho. Halos hindi ko namalayang mag-aalas-dose na pala ng tanghali. Katatapos ko lamang ayusin ang isang executive suite nang biglang tumunog ang cellphone ko. Napakunot-noo ako nang makita ang pangalan ni Aling Nena sa screen. Bihira siyang tumawag habang nasa trabaho ako. Maliban na lang kung may mahalagang dahilan. Agad kong sinagot ang tawag. "Hello, Nay?" Narinig ko ang bahagya niyang nag-aalalang boses. "Thea..." Bigla akong kinabahan. "Bakit po?" "Si Kiel..." "Mukhang nilalagnat." Parang may kumabog sa dibdib ko. "Mataas po ba?" "Hindi pa naman." "Pero mainit ang noo niya." "Masakit daw ang ulo niya." Napapikit ako sandali. "Ano po ang sabi ng teacher?" "Pinauwi na sila." "Nasa bahay na kami ngayon." Huminga ako nang malalim. "Sige po." "Pakipainom muna siya ng gamot," "Susubukan kong makauwi agad." "Sige huwag kang mag-alala." "Aalagaan ko si Kiel." "Salamat po, Nay." Pagkaba

The Call

Nang huminto ang traysikel sa tapat ng emergency entrance ng ospital. Agad ako dumukot sa bulsa ng pantalon ko ng pera at iniabot iyon sa traysikel driver pagkatapos ay nagmamadali na akong bumaba at patakbo na pumasok sa ospital habang buhat-buhat ko si Kiel sa aking mga bisig. "Tulong po!" "Tulungan niyo po ang anak ko "Nilalagnat po siya!" Agad na lumapit ang dalawang nurse na may kasamang hospital attendant at isang stretcher. "Ma'am, dito po." "Anong pangalan ng bata?" "K-Kiel Villanueva po..." Pagkababa na pagkababa ko sa anak ko sa stretcher agad nila iyon itinulak papunta sa Emergency Room. Agad naman ako napasunod sa kanila habang itinutulak nila ang stretcher narinig kong nagsalita ang isang nurse. "Check the BP." "Temperature." "Prepare IV." "Call the pediatric resident." Para akong natulos sa kinatatayuan ko habang pinakikinggan ko iyon Nang nasa tapat na kami ng pintuan agad ako hinarangan ng isang nurse. "Ma'am, hanggang dito nalang

A Stranger's Blood

Zevran's POVThe hallway fell into complete silence.I watched as Althea struggled to process everything the doctor had just told her.Her eyes were already swollen from crying.Yet more tears continued to stream down her face.She clasped both of her hands together."Doc..""Please...""Please... I'm begging you. Do everything you can. Please save my son."The doctor gave her a reassuring nod."We're doing everything we can, Mrs. Villanueva.""But we need to move quickly."He glanced at the medical chart in his hands before looking back at her."Because of the severity of his condition, your son urgently needs a blood transfusion."Althea nodded frantically."Take my blood.""You can take all of it if you have to.""I'll do anything."The desperation in her voice was heartbreaking.The doctor sighed gently."I appreciate your willingness, Mrs. Villanueva.""But it isn't that simple.""We can't transfuse blood without confirming compatibility.""We'll need to determine your blood type

A Debt I Could Never Repay

Althea's POV Hindi ko alam kung gaano katagal akong nakaupo sa labas ng Emergency Room. Parang tumigil ang oras. Bawat segundo... Ay tila isang napakahabang paghihintay. Mahigpit kong hawak ang rosaryong palagi kong dala sa bulsa ng aking uniporme. Paulit-ulit akong nagdarasal. "Lord..." "Pakiusap..." "Kahit ako na lang ang mahirapan..." "Huwag lang ang anak ko." Paminsan-minsan... Napapatingin ako sa direksiyon ni Mr. Altamirano. Tahimik lamang siyang nakaupo sa kabilang hanay ng mga upuan. Nakapatong ang isang kamay niya sa bahaging pinagkuhanan ng dugo. Halatang maputla siya nang bahagya. Ngunit ni minsan... Hindi ko siya narinig na nagreklamo. Hindi ko maintindihan. Bakit niya ginawa iyon? CEO siya. Ako... Isa lamang ordinaryong housekeeping attendant. Wala siyang obligasyong tulungan kami. Ngunit naroon siya. Mula nang dumating siya... Hindi niya kami iniwan. Napayuko ako. Mas lalo akong nakaramdam ng hiya. Kung tutuusin...

A Place I Never Knew I Had

For the first time in years... I didn't know what to do next. Usually, every decision in my life had a clear purpose. Every meeting had an objective. Every action had a reason. I built my career by relying on logic. Facts. Evidence. Certainty. But standing outside the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit that night... There was one thing I couldn't explain. Why did leaving feel so difficult? I had already done what I came here to do. I donated blood. I helped an employee's son. I should have been satisfied. I should have walked away. But my feet refused to move. Because somewhere behind that door... Was a little boy who had held onto life with everything he had. A little boy whose eyes I had barely seen. A little boy who might... Possibly... Be connected to me. I closed my eyes briefly. "No." I whispered. "Not yet." I couldn't allow myself to believe something without proof. Hope could be dangerous. Especially when it involved something I had already lost once.

The Weight She Carries

I never thought a hospital hallway could feel so familiar. Two days ago... I had barely known this place existed. Now... I found myself returning every evening. Not because I had business here. Not because I had an obligation. But because every time I thought about leaving... A strange feeling stopped me. Concern. That was the only word I could use. Concern for Kiel. Concern for Kian. And somehow... Concern for Althea. I still didn't understand it. I had known her for only a short time. Yet watching her carry everything alone made something inside me uncomfortable. She smiled even when she was exhausted. She thanked people even when she was the one struggling. She worried about everyone else before herself. And I couldn't help wondering... How long had she been doing that? How long had she been carrying the weight of the world without anyone asking if she was okay? That evening... I arrived at the hospital carrying several containers o

The First Step

I used to believe that every important relationship in life began with a reason. Business partnerships had contracts. Friendships were built through years of trust. Connections were created through mutual benefit. Everything had an explanation. Everything had a beginning that made sense. But with Althea and her children... I couldn't find one. There was no business agreement. No obligation. No reason for me to keep returning. Yet every morning... I found myself thinking about them. About whether Kiel was feeling better. About whether Kian was eating properly. About whether Althea had rested at all. And that bothered me. Because I wasn't someone who allowed distractions. Especially personal ones. But somehow... A family I barely knew had become the first thing I thought about when I woke up Three days after Kiel's hospitalization... I returned to the hospital. This time... I wasn't carrying documents. I wasn't meeting investors. I wasn't there as the CEO of Al

The Man Who Stayed

Althea's POV Mabilis lumipas ang mga araw. At maging ang mga linggo. Parang kailan lamang... Nasa ospital ako, nakaupo sa labas ng emergency room habang nanginginig sa takot at hindi alam kung ano ang mangyayari sa anak ko. Parang kailan lamang... Pakiramdam ko ay mag-isa kong hinaharap ang pinakamalaking pagsubok sa buhay ko. Ngunit ngayon... Unti-unti nang bumalik sa dati ang lahat. Si Kiel ay tuluyan nang gumaling. Bumalik na ang sigla niya. Bumalik na rin ang pagiging makulit niya na madalas kong pagsabihan. "Mama, pwede na po ba akong tumakbo?" Napatingin ako sa kanya habang nakakunot-noo. "Sige anak, pero kailangan mo pa ring mag-ingat okay?." "Opo Mama. Napangiti ako habang pinagmamasdan sila. Ito ang bagay na lagi kong ipinagpapasalamat. Ang makita silang masaya. Ang makita silang ligtas. Ngunit may isa pang bagay na hindi ko inaasahan. At iyon ay... ang boss kong si Zevran. Noong una... Hindi ko alam kung paano ako magiging komp

The First Touch

Hindi agad siya sumagot Nanatili lamang siyang nakatingin sa akin na parang may gusto siyang sabihin... Ngunit hindi niya alam kung paano iyon sisimulan Tahimik ang maliit naming sala. Tanging mahinang ugong lamang ng electric fan at ang banayad na paghinga ng kambal mula sa silid ang maririnig. Ilang segundo ang lumipas humakbang siyang palapit sa akin at marahan niyang inabot ang isa kong kamay. Bahagya akong napasinghap ng maramdaman ko ang mainit niyang palad. Napatingin ako sa magkahawak naming kamay. Pagkatapos... Unti-unti akong tumingala. At doon nagtagpo ang aming mga mata. Hindi ko mabasa ang nais ipahiwatig ng kanyang mga mata ngunit malinaw kong nakita doon ang pag-aalinlangan niya... At ang damdaming na tila matagal na niyang pilit itinatago. "Althea..." Mahina niyang tawag sa pangalan ko na halos pabulong. Napalunok ako. "Sir...?" Hindi siya agad nagsalita sa halip... Marahan niyang hinaplos ng hinlalaki ang likod ng kamay ko na para

The Home I Never Expected

Zevran's POV Tme has a strange way of changing people. Days became weeks. Weeks quietly turned into months. And before I realized it... That small apartment at Villa Esperanza had become as familiar to me as my own home. Every evening after work... Without even thinking about it... I found myself driving to the same place. Not because I had promised anyone. Not because I was expected to. But because my day somehow felt incomplete if I didn't see them. If I didn't hear Kian excitedly tell me about something he learned in school. If I didn't listen to Kiel proudly, explain another impossible invention he had imagined. And... If I didn't see Althea smile. It was strange. For years... My life revolved around meetings. Contracts. Business expansions. Numbers. Success. Everything had a schedule. Everything had a purpose. Yet somewhere along the way... My happiest moments became the ones that could never be written on a calendar. A simple
