Rika and Hitomi walked into the clinic. The nurse on the receptionist’s desk and the other older looking patients smirked at seeing the two young people enter the clinic.
Hay, nako… mga bata nanaman… pustahan, nagkabuntisan lang ‘to… pag positive, abort yan (*sigh* … kids again… I bet he just got her pregnant… if she is pregnant, they’ll have it aborted) They started whispering among themselves.
Rika partially heard them and wanted to cry because she understood what they were saying. They were talking about how young the two looked and that they’re probably have the child aborted. Hitomi held her hand tight. Even though Hitomi did not understand a word, she read through Rika’s discomfort.
Hitomi went straight to the desk. “We have an appointement with the doctor… and we’re requesting for a pregnancy test…”
The nurse, still smirking took out a form.
Sabi ko na nga ba, e… (I knew it) “Paki-fill up na lang, ‘to” (Please fill this up) She handed them a medical information form. The smirk she had on was wiped away at the sight of the rings on their fingers.
Mag-asawa na pala… ang bata naman nilang nagpakasa… pero parang bigatin (Oh, they’re married… they married so young… but they look rich) The nurse thought to herself.
Hitomi took the form and started filling up the blanks in Rika’s behalf:
Name: (last name, first name, m.i.) Yoshizawa Rika I.
Age: 23
Date of birth: 19 January 1985
Sex: Female
Address: (confidential)
Contact numbers: (confidential)
Civil Status: Married
Name of Spouse: Yoshizawa Tomi
Address: (confidential)
Contact numbers: (confidential)
While Hitomi filled up the forms, the nurse handed Rika a small cup and led her to a rest room. “Umihi ka na ba, iha?” (Have you urinated, dear?)
“Hindi pa po. Kailangan po yung una, di ba?” (Not yet. The first in the morning is necessary, right?)
“Oo, mabuti naman at alam mo… Sige, iha, maiwanan na kita dyan.” (It’s good that you know… All right… I’ll go on ahead now)
“Opo. Salamat po.” (Okay, thank you)
The nurse returned to the desk where Hitomi was waiting. “Hapon ka pala, iho…” (So, you’re Japanese…)
Hitomi had no idea of what the nurse just said. “Sorry… but I don’t understand Filipino yet…”
The nurse was flabbergasted. “Oh… I’m sorry… I said you are Japanese… Is your wife Filipino?”
“…Oh… yes, I am Japanese… My wife, she’s Japanese too, but she’s been here longer than me… She can speak Filipino… I just moved here so that I can be with her…” She spoke loudly so everyone in the reception room could hear her speak.
“You’re married for how long?”
“We just celebrated our second anniversary two weeks ago…”
“Really? Belated happy anniversary… You and your wife look very young…”
“Yes,… Thank you… We’re both twenty three now… … We really want to have a baby soon… It’s been two years and my father’s becoming impatient…”
Stepping outside the bathroom, Rika smiled at hearing Hitomi lying to the nurse and making sure everyone heard. Rika walked back to the reception room and handed the small cup to the nurse who brought it immediately to the lab. She winked at Hitomi who pulled at her. Hitomi had Rika sit on her lap. “Why did you take long? I missed you, Mrs. Yoshizawa…”
“To-chan!” The two laughed together and kissed right in front of the other patients who finally noticed their rings. Most of those who saw the rings knew the rings were expensive just from how they look.
The nurse emerged from the lab. “Mr. and Mrs. Yoshizawa, the doctor may see you now…”
“Thank you.” The two held hands as they entered the room.
