It was a typical busy day, where I was the only one who had back-to-back classes the whole morning because I had to give my 4 classes their last long test for the year. I was going around, doing the same things I usually do in class, like hollering out last-minute reminders and keeping them settled. I guess for a moment I forgot I was pregnant until I saw that I bled. Tears were welling up my eyes as I read instructions during my third class, waiting for my doctor's reply. Teacher Jei was kind enough to continue reading the long test for me, and I am also grateful for Teacher Lea who volunteered to buy medicine for me at that moment. The rest of the teachers were checking up on me when I stayed at the clinic waiting for my parents. They were equally worried and asked me to take the rest, however long it took.
I was prescribed to take the week off to rest and continue my medicines. I was told by my doctor I made myself get agitated (perhaps from running around and hollering to make sure the students finish the test on time) but my cervix was closed and there was no more bleeding. I just had to observe any changes from then on.
Some children saw me in the clinic, but most of them heard the news about me through their advisers. Most of them thought it was all their fault that they even apologized through Facebook. But the biggest surprise was the bunch of letters from Grade 2-Archimedes that greeted me the day I came back. It was funny and at the same time touching that these children thought of the well-being of me and my baby. I never thought they would be as excited for her arrival as me. I guess they do really think of me as someone important. Check out some of the unforgettable notes below. I'm going to miss them all! Sniff.
