"How is everything going in here?" I asked to the engineer while looking at the under construction building.


"Everything is going well, Ms.CEO. I can tell that this will the most successful and useful hospital in the future." He casually said. I simply smile at that thought from him.

"You think so?"

"Oo naman, ma'am. Hindi lahat ng mga bilyonarya sa mundo ay katulad mo. Using your wealth for good is very a commonsensical move." He looked at me with a proud smile. "Live long and I wish you all the best, Ms.CEO. Sana ay marami ka pang matulongan sa mga susunod na mga panahon. Oh siya, maiwan na muna kita rito, I'll advice you not to walk around near the construction area, it's dangerous."

I nodded. "Work hard, Engineer." Nginitian niya na lamang ako at pagkatapos ay tinalikoran na ako para bumalik sa trabaho.

I placed my hands inside the pocket of my coat at wala sa sariling napangiti. Is it impossible to meet God without even knowing it? If yes, then I've just maybe met Him. Nagpagawa ako ng Hospital at orphanage hindi dahil sa wala akong magawa sa pera ko, kundi dahil sa gusto kong mabawasan ang kasalanan ko at gagawin ko palang na kasalanan. The gods in underworld made me live again just to seek revenge in a sinful way but I don't wanna live just like this. I might be evil and mischievous but I won't hesitate to do nice things just like this.

Sa mundong ito minsan ka lang makakakilala ng isang tao na marunong pahalagahan ang mga mabubuting bagay na nagawa mo. It's sad to have the fact that most of these people nowadays are foolishly blind, not just by the wrong but also by the truth. Pero sino ba naman ako para maghangad ng pagpapahalaga? I kill a person and put another one in unconscious situation and about to kill another two person probably tomorrow. And it's all because of this bullshit thing called vengeance. They made me a vengeful person and it sucks.

Napabuntong hininga ako at muling sinulyapan ang construction building bago ako tuloyang tumalikod. The weather is great today so I decided to take a walk a bit. It's sunny but windy. I casually walked along the sidewalk, some of these people are walking the same direction with mine and some are in opposite. Every person has a different mood and kind of a day, some are stress, carefree and just. Sana pwede ko silang isa-isa sabihan na kailangan nilang sulitin at pahalagahan ang mga buhay nila ngayon kasi hindi nila malalaman kung hanggang kailan sila malayang makakahinga sa mundong ito.


"10 years ago we were just carelessly walking along this sidewalk as a couple but now look at us. I walked after him and he walked before me with a painful distance." I laughingly whisper to myself as I stopped walking. I heave a deep sigh before turning around to see him. Bahagya pa siyang nagulat sa biglaan kong pagharap sa direksyon niya. "Why are you following me?"


"I've decided to just follow you because you won't let me stop you," He paused just to gave me a plain yet painful smile. "from walking away from me." He continued. My lips parted and was about to utter a word but I end up pursing it because I realized I have nothing left to say to him. And I admit that what he said made me speechless.


A strong wind approached which made his hair messily flew with it. People passing by around us seems to be going fast forward as we maintained our eye contact in this quite long distance that we have. Just by looking at his brown orbs I know he already gave on me which is painfully good. I gathered all my strength and started walking past through his position without even breaking our devastating eye contact. Nang malapit ko na siyang lagpasan ay kusa ko nang iniwas ang paningin sa kaniya at tuloyan siyang iniwan roon. Bumalik ako sa construction site at dumeretso sa kung saan nakagarahe ang kotse ko. I went inside my car and left the site. Napahikbi na lamang ako nang makita kong hindi parin siya umaalis, nakatayo sa kung saan ko ito iniwan kanina.
