afternoon

My son came up to me and asks where his dad was.. I said he was in the office. He said ok and went out the bedroom na. But I knew that Tito Charlie came up our house and he was the one who was looking for Alfred that afternoon. I didnt feel it was something important since he didnt bother looking for me instead.

Around 5pm, I went down to the kitchen to fix some dinner. My maid came up to me and asked if I already knew what happened to "sir" ( thats how they call Dad). I was not thinking fast. I asked sinong sir? my maid replied: " si sir sa baba te... yung daddy nyo".
Ahh si Daddy. Kala ko kung sino. He didnt enter my mind because he was on vacation and was supposed to be back home by weekends with mom.

So I asked further...
Me: "why anong meron?" Pauwi na ba daw sila ?
Maid: di po ate. Kasi na-aksidente daw po si sir sa states."
Me: ano? kailan. sino may sabi ? bat di ko alam...
etc ... etc...

There are alot of wrong exchanges of statements about what really happened to Daddy. So Im cutting it and go straight to the real story.

Dad attended a convention in Canada and left Mom in L.A. since He'll only be there for a day or two for the said convention . Yesterday , he slipped on the stairs. Falls 6 steps and landed in the side of his face. I dunno what side. The impact made alot of pressure that.... that made his eyeball pop-out of his socket. He was rushed at the hospital ( i dunno what name ) and undergone surgery. He was said to be in ICU yesterday June 28.

I felt bad... I dunno what to feel. I 1st thought , he doesnt deserve this. He was so kind, loving , funny, basta he is the nicest person I've known for the past 10 years. He is an inspiration to me kasi ang sipag nya. Ang talino, ang bait.

I feel stupid and guilty after awhile. I already felt something will go wrong by the time they will be back home. I knew they will be delayed. I even talked to hubby about it days before this happened. I told him, I feel that they wont be back at the end of the month, Baka ma extend. HUbby listened and kept quiet as usual but he knew what Im talking about. He knew my ability to feel things good or bad.

I felt guilty because somehow I knew something will go wrong . Stupid because I cannot control the situation. I cannot do anything.

I wonder also why I wasnt told about it. Why they looked for my husband and not I? Is it because In just an in law? I dont get it... sorry but in our family this things doesnt happen. If you are part of the family - you are part of the family.
I asked hubby about it because I felt insulted. He too dont have the answers. He too felt bad about it.

oh well... lets just focus to Dad.

Please please help me pray to the lord that he'll be okay. That he can still see after the surgery, that he will not go into coma, no blood clots on the brain, no hemorrhage, no broken bones, no complications whatsoever.
I pray that he can come back home safe. That he can come back to work after he recuperate. Because I know it'll break his heart if he cannot practice his profession anymore. He loves moving, He loves working. I ask our dear lord not to take all these to him. I dont want him to get sad further. He just doesnt deserve it.. I know God knows what I am talking about.
