In short, hindi tayo nakukuntento kung anong meron tayo. Well,I would say that, "ganun din ako,oo ganun din ako." But its normal behavior of our youth today, but of course the good things there is that we have to overcome those instinct and used that as a stepping stone to meet our goal in life.<br /> Before I went to my work, I saw a little boy on the street asking for a help. That boy has no legs. As in no legs talaga.....then I suddenly posed for a while just to look at him. Then something remind me that, maswerte pa pala ako,even though sometimes I felt like so slow d b? </span></span><span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Maswerte pa din tayo kasenag aaral pa din tayo, at higit sa lahat, may mga taong anjan para sa'tin para mahalin tayo ta alagaan(hm...emo?)pero totoo,come to think of it.<br /> If you would going to ask me how lucky I am,well I'm a lucky person because of many blessings that I have right. That's why I always try to blog those good things so that people may read this blog to grow their faith. Faith to their Self and love one's and above all, faith to Almighty. Ikaw, gaano ka kaswerte?Share it to me.....Thanks<br /><br /></span></span>Eirnes Brianhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14835467591176704616noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8261757035065185757.post-74413760336310838302009-07-22T22:24:00.000-07:002009-07-22T22:29:19.917-07:00Girls need to realize<span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> Whew! This is my latest story. It's my favorite because... Haha! It's a secret. If you know the real me, you'll realize why I like this story so much!</span><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(102, 51, 255);">February 5, 5:20 pm</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> He has been waiting for this day. He was so excited. He finished his work early and went to the flower shop to pick up all his orders. Then he went home to arrange all the flowers. After two hours of preparation, everything is ready.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> She arrived at past eight. She went straight at the rooftop of his condominium for that's what he has told her. She was astonished with what she saw.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> The rooftop was filled with flowers, hundreds of them. At the center were two chairs and a table. It was a candlelit dinner he has prepared for them. Beef stew and champagne was the menu for the night. At the right side of the table was a piano. On the other side was a painting.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "Happy 2nd anniversary Gel!" he greeted her.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> He handed her a bouquet. It was her favorite, china pink roses. He gave her a kiss in the cheeks. Then he asked her to stand in front of the painting as he removed the cloth covering it. It was a beautiful landscape - a couple, cuddling to each other, sitting under a tree while watching the sun as it fades down into the horizon.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "Did you like it?" he asked.</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "Yeah! Thanks, Jhay."</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "Oh, wait. There's more."</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> He went to the piano and she followed him.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "This one is for you."</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> He started playing the piano. It was such a sweet melody. He composed it all by himself. He sang because he knew that it would make her happy even though he didn't have a good voice. She just smiled while listening to him.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "You're so sweet. Is that a new song?" she asked.</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "Yeah. Its title is 'Wish'. I made it for you so that whenever you're sad or lonely, just sing it and then you'll remember me and you will be happy."</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> He assisted her as she sat down. He opened the champagne and poured it on the glasses. They started eating dinner.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "Uhmmm..."</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "What is it? Speak. Don't drag." she said.</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "Yeah. Sorry."</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "What now?"</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> He held her hand. He looked at her in the eyes.</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "There's something really important that I want to tell you. But before that, I want you to know that I'm very thankful to have you. Thanks for sharing with me two years of your life. I love you Gel!"</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> She slowly pulled her hand away from his and bowed down.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "Gel? Is something wrong?"</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "I have a question..." she answered slowly.</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "What is it?"</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "The song that you played, why is it entitled 'Wish'?"</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "Huh? Why? Uhmmm, because like what the song says, I'm wishing for your happiness. I want you to be happy and hopefully I am the one who can make you happy."</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "Really? You want me to be happy?"</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "Yeah. I'm willing to do everything just to make you happy."</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> She took a deep breath.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "I wish to be happy..."</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "I know. Aren't you happy at the moment? Tell me what you want and I'll..."</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "Jhay!" she replied in a high tone.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> There was silence. All they can hear was the whisper of the cold night wind.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "I wish... I wish to be happy... My happiness is my... my freedom... I want... I want my... freedom..." she said as tears started to run through her cheeks.</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "WHAT?!"</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> He was shocked. It was something that he didn't expect to hear from her especially at this very special day.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "But Gel, why? I know we're having a hard time the past three months but I'm trying to adjust. We can fix this and everything will be fine. I know we can do this..."</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "Three months is too long. I'm sorry Jhay..."</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "Gel, don't do this..."</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "Jhay, please understand..."</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "Gel, we have been together for two years, two years of good times and hardships. We can make it. Please..."</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "This time, it is different..."</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> She stood up. She can't stop her tears. She knew that her decision will be too hard for them, for him. She tried to walk away but his right hand grabbed hers while the other one grasped his chest.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "It hurts, it hurts so much..."</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "I know. It hurts me too but I have to do this..."</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> He slowly released her hand. She ran away while wiping her tears. He fell down into his knees while still holding his chest. Tears started to come out from his eyes. He was stunned. He can't move. His vision became blurry. Suddenly, everything became dark for him...</span><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(102, 51, 255);">February 6, 11:29 am</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> She has been awake all night, wondering if she really did the right thing. Tears didn't stop from flowing. It was morning when she fell asleep.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> RING!!! RING!!! RING!!!</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> She didn't answer the call. She looked at her cellphone. It says 15 missed calls. She just dropped it and went back to bed.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> RING!!! RING!!! RING!!!</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "Hello?"</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> A familiar voice was speaking at the other end of the line.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "WHAT?!"</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> She took a cab. It took her half an hour to reach the hospital. She went straight in the intensive care unit. His mom was there, standing, crying. She gave her a hug.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "How's he?" she asked.</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "He's... he's on a... standstill..."</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "I never knew that he has this kind of sickness..."</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "He didn't tell you?"</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "No."</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "He went to me yesterday morning and he told me he will finally tell it to you."</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> She had a flashback and remembered his words, his words that there was something important that he wanted to say.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "Ever since he was a kid, he has a weak heart. My husband and I used to bring him to the doctor. But my husband passed away five years ago. After that, he stopped his treatment. He went at school in the morning and worked at night. He wanted to help me. He wanted to work so that he can send his siblings to school. From that moment, I haven't seen his smile..." his mom narrated.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> She looked at him through the glass. Tears started to come out.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "That's until he met you. I remembered that day. He went home happily and said to me 'Guess what mom? I met a girl. She was so beautiful and kind. She is really nice.' That was his first smile since his father died. He will always tell me every date that you two had. He became jolly again. I said to myself that finally, someone has injected a new life at him..."</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> She wiped her tears. His mom was also in teary eyes.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "But he had chest pains recently. Last week he went to the doctor and he had a test. And the results came out and the doctor said that the next attack will be fatal and might be his last. I didn't expect it to come so sudden..."</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "I'm... I'm... I'm so sorry..." she whispered.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> Tears continued to burst out of her eyes. His mom gave her a tap in the back.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "Go inside and see him. He needs you."</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> She walked slowly going inside his room. She tried to hold her tears. She sat beside him and held his hand.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "I'm ... I'm... sorry... Jhay. I... didn't mean... I didn't mean to do it. I... love you... so much that I want... to let go... of you... I want you... to be happy... because it feels... it feels like I'm just... I'm just taking you... taking you for granted... that's why..."</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> She kept on crying. She couldn't stop it.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "I'm so sorry... I love you Jhay..."</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> She gave him a kiss on the cheeks.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> Tears started to flow out of his eyes.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> She was shocked with what she saw. She held his hand tightly.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP!</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> Flat line.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> And a loud cry was heard from his room...</span><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(102, 51, 255);">February 13, 9:30 am</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> She didn't go to school. Instead, she went to his grave. She brought with her a piece of paper. It was a song lyrics. The song lyrics which he has composed for her. She read it on her mind. Then, she started to sing. Tears fell. She stopped.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "I'm sorry... I'm sorry Jhay..." she uttered.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> She sat beside his grave all day. It was dark when she decided to go home.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> From a distance, someone was watching.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255); font-weight: bold;">February 15, 10:08 am</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "Good morning Jhay! Look, I have something for you."</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> She placed a bouquet on top of his grave. It was a bouquet of china pink roses.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "These are my favorites, remember? Hmmm. Guess what? I'm going to stay here with you again!"</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> She brought out a picture. It was their picture, their last picture. He was sitting on a chair while she was on his back and hugging him tightly.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> And there were droplets. She looked up. Then the rain suddenly fell. She hugged their picture and dropped on her knees. A guy stood beside her. He was holding an umbrella.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "Are you okay?" he said.</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "No, but thanks anyway."</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "I've been watching you for three days. You always visit this grave. It seems he's very important to you. Who is he, if you don't mind?"</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "My ex-boy... No. My boyfriend..."</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "Oh..."</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "He died a week ago."</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "I'm sorry."</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> The rain poured hard. He stayed there with her until the rain stopped.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(102, 51, 255);">February 17, 5:16 pm</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "She's here again." he said to himself.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> He went near her. She didn't notice him.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "Hi." he said.</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "Oh. It's you again."</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "Yeah. By the way, I forgot to introduce myself before. I'm Art. And you are?" he offered his hand.</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "Gel." she shook his hand.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> He sat beside her.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "Thanks." she uttered.</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "For what?"</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "For staying with me the other day."</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "Oh. It's nothing."</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "Can I ask you something?"</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "What is it?"</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "Why did you stay?"</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "Why?"</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "Yeah."</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "Hmmm. Because... I just want to." he answered.</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "You just want to? Stay with me?"</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "Yeah."</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "But you don't know me..."</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> There was silence. He just looked up in the sky. She stared at him.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "Let us just say that I hate seeing a crying girl, whether I know her or not..." he said.</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "You... You remind me of him..."</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "Who?"</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "Him." she pointed at his tombstone.</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "Really?"</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> She started talking about her ex-boyfriend: how she met him, how he courted her, how they celebrated every anniversary that they had, how they passed all the problems that came, and how she lose him. They just sat there and talked to each other.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(102, 51, 255);">February 20, 4:12 pm</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> They agreed to have a picnic beside her ex-boyfriend's grave. He brought a lot of snacks for her. They began to eat.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "Have you ever lost someone so important to you?" she asked.</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "Like a girlfriend?"</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "Uhmmm... Yeah..."</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "Yeah. Just a few weeks ago."</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "Oh. I'm sorry. What happened?"</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "She felt that she doesn't have her own freedom with me."</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "Own freedom?"</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "I always wanted to be with her, but she felt like I'm being too possessive with her. It's like I'm choking her and because of that, we always argue. I tried my best to fix the problem, to adjust to her demands, but I guess it was too late..."</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "Oh." she sighed.</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "Why?"</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "I also felt that way with him before..."</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "Ah. Did you ask him why he is like that?"</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "No."</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "You should have..."</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "Why?"</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "So that maybe, you will be able to understand him."</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> She bowed down.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "That was my problem with her. She never asked. She just assumes that everything is fine whenever she sees me smile. She just thought that I'm being selfish and that I'm preventing her from being happy."</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> He took a sip from his juice.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "It's not like he is preventing me to be happy or he is choking me, but you know, because he is always too close, it feels like I'm just taking him for granted..." she said.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "Oh..."</span><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(102, 51, 255);">February 24, 10:17 am</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> He accompanied her going to the church.

They had been on the telephone for six straight hours. It was morning when they decided to hang up.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(102, 51, 255);">March 10, 7:31 pm</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> It was her finals week. He helped her in studying all of her lessons. They stayed at a coffee shop. She even fell asleep while reading her notes.

Thanks."</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> He hugged her tightly. She felt something different. It reminded her of him, her ex-boyfriend.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> They had a celebration afterwards.</span><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(102, 51, 255);">April 7, 9:15 pm</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> They went to the mall to watch a movie.

They also had some shopping for themselves.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> She was comfortable being with him. She felt like she has known him for a long time. She really enjoyed his company.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> After shopping, they dropped by in a restaurant. It was located near the edge of the mountain. It has a perfect view. They can see the volcano in the middle of the lake though it is foggy. The wind was cold. They had their dinner. Then, they went to the terrace to view the scenery.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "Why are you doing all these things to me?" she asked.</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "Huh?"</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "Ever since the day I met you, you just stayed by my side. You always accompany me. Why are you like that?"</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "Why? I told you before. I just want to."</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "You just want to? Again?"</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "Yeah. I know you've been depressed ever since he left. I just want to make you feel that you're not alone, that I'm always here for you.

I'll still stay here for you."</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "But, you know I can't repay all of your efforts and your feelings..."</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "I understand. You know, if there is one important thing that I must tell you, it would be 'I love you', not 'Please love me too'."</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "Oh... But what if I'm just using you to forget him...?"</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "It's okay. If it is you, I won't be hurt..."</span><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(102, 51, 255);">May 6, 10:18 pm</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> He invited her to have a cup of coffee. She went to the coffee shop and saw him sitting in a corner. She sat down in front of him. He looked at her and smiled.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> She felt something. She felt that she's starting to like him. No, what she really felt was that she loved him for such a long time. But she kept on denying it. She wanted to keep all of her feelings for him, her ex-boyfriend.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "You said you wanted to tell me something, what is it?"</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "Uhmmm... you still don't recognize me?</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "Recognize you?"</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> "Uhmmm. Just a question, what if Jhay is still alive?"</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> She was shocked.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> “Where is he?”</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> “Wait!”</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> “Where is he?! Come on! Tell me!” she said on a high tone.</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> “He is… still alive. And he is here… right in… front of you…”</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> “WHAT?!”</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> “It is me Jhay, don’t you recognize me?”</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> “Stop it Art!”</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> “But it is the truth!”</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> “I said stop it! Shut up! Stop making fun of me! And stop making fun of Jhay!”</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> She stood up and gave him a hard slap on the cheeks. He was stunned with what she did. Everyone was looking at them.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> She walked away as she wiped her eyes.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(102, 51, 255);">May 15, 11:13 pm</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> She was still wondering why he did it to her. She thought that she found someone who will stay by her side, but…</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> It was late when she arrived home. In her doorsteps, there was a note. She opened it.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(102, 51, 255);">Gel,</span><br /><br /><span style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> I want to talk to you tomorrow. Remember the rooftop? I’ll see you there. Please come.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> Art</span><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(102, 51, 255);">May 16, 11:28 pm</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> It was late. He was wondering if she will ever come to see him.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> She gave it a thought the whole day. She kept on thinking whether she will see him or not. Finally, she made a decision. She went straight at the rooftop. She was astonished with what she saw.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> “Is this a dream?”</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> The rooftop was filled with flowers, hundreds of them. At the center were two chairs and a table. It was a candlelit dinner he has prepared for them. At the right side of the table was a piano. On the other side was a painting.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> “Hi Gel.”</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> “Why… why do keep on doing this to me?”</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> “Gel, please listen first. I’ll explain everything.”</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> He asked her to stand in front of the painting as he removed the cloth covering it.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> “That painting, why do you have it?”</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> “When I was a kid, I had a weak heart. I’m not from a rich family that’s why my parents worked so hard. They wanted to free me from this sickness. They kept on working and thinking on how they can earn a lot of money so that they can pay my operations and therapies. They forgot that I have other needs. They were so focused on earning money that they forgot that I needed them by my side. From that day, I tried to live on my own. I stopped myself from being close to other people. I detached myself from them.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> He held the painting.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> “Years passed and dad died. I saw how mom grief over his death. She was so depressed. I pitied her. I made a promise to myself that if ever I will fall in love, I will never make her cry and I will always stay by her side.”</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> He took a deep breath.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> “After that I decided to stop my treatment to lighten up her burden. I worked so hard so that I can send my siblings to school and help her with our bills. I really forgot how to smile. That’s until I met you. You’re the one who brought back my smile, my life.”</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> “No… It’s not true…” she mumbled.</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> “I was so scared of being alone again that’s why I always try to be with you. I knew that there were times it seems I’m too possessive or overprotective. It is just I’m too scared too lose you. I don’t want to see you go. I just want to be with you. I don’t want to leave your side, but this sickness put me away from you.”</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> “It’s not true. You’re not Jhay. You’re Art, right?” she was trembling.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(102, 51, 255);">11:47 pm</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> He went to the piano and sat down.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> “I’m sorry if I didn’t explain everything to you before. I was waiting for you to ask me about those things, but you didn’t. When I have finally decided to tell it to you, it was too late. I hope you understand.”</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> He started playing the piano. It was such a sweet melody. It was Jhay’s composition. He sang because he knew that it would make her happy even though he didn't have a good voice.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> She was shocked. Tears started to fall from her eyes.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> “It is… you…, Jhay… It… is really… you…”</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> He stopped.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> “You recognize me now?”</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> “Yeah.”</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> She ran to him and tried to hug him. He was off-balanced and they fell on the floor. She kissed him on the lips.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> “Why? Why are you still alive?”</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> Tears continue to run through her eyes. It was tears of joy. He hugged her so tight.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> “The day I died, I saw St. Peter. He asked me if there is one final wish that I want before I go to heaven. I gave it a thought. I asked him how you were doing. He gave me a basin of water. I saw you there. You were crying. He told me that you were having so much pain because of my death. I told him that my final wish is I want to be with you again.”</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> He wiped her tears.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> “He said that it is impossible. I begged him to grant that wish. He felt my sincerity and my love for you. He agreed but there were two conditions. First is that no one will recognize that I am Jhay. Everyone will think that I’m a new person and Jhay is already dead. That’s why I used the name Art.”</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> They both sat down on the floor.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> “Ever since the day I lived again, I tried to be with. Giving my best effort, hoping that you will recognize me. But no matter what I do, still, you didn’t realize that it was all me from the start. But, thanks to that song, you finally see me. You realized that I’m still alive.”</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> “Jhay…”</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> “The second condition…”</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> He tried to stop his tears.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> “The second condition… I can only live… I can only live for… for one hundred days… After that, I will vanish…”</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> “What? When is the 100th day?”</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> “Today. At twelve midnight.”</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> </span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> She looked at her watch. It says 11:57 pm.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> “Jhay, why? This is so unfair. Why just now? Why do I have to realize it only until now?”</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> “Look Gel, I know we don’t have enough time. I want you to know that I love you so much. I came back to love you even more but now my time has come. Remember, I will always be there for you, by your side, even though you can’t see me. I will be always here. Always…”</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> She hugged him as tears run down through her cheeks.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> “I’m so… sorry… Jhay if I… hurt you… I’m so sorry… I love you… too… I love… you so much… Jhay… Please stay… Don’t leave me… Please… Do… something…”</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> They hugged each other so tight as if they wouldn’t let go of each other.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> “Jhay…” it was a whisper from above.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> “He’s here. He’s calling me Gel…”</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> “Please… Stay… Don’t go…” she begged.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> “Jhay… it is time to go…” and there was another whisper.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> His body flew up. He was vanishing slowly.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> “Jhay! Please stay!” she shouted.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> They tried to reach each other.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> “I love you Gel. I love you so much! Always remember I will always be there by your side…”</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> “Jhay…I LOVE YOU!”</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> It was twelve midnight.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"> And there was silence.
