Vivienne's Pov:

Such a great mistake. Bakit ako tumakbo? Why did I cross the road without looking sideways. Why was I even running. Hindi eh! Mali! Bakit may truck na bumunggo?! Pwede namang umiwas eh! Bwisit! Epal. Epalinism. Epalindification.

You know what's weird? I felt pain pounding me from within, kahit hindi pa bumubunggo yung truck. It was a scary experience. Not recommended. Wag tatangatanga kapag na-tawid.
Funny I even saw a man-a handsome man to be specific, rushing towards me before everything went dark. Sayang! Dapat nakuha ko yung number nih kiyah!

And kaboom! Nandito ako sa 'di ko alam na lugar. Pero it's much more scary here. Dito ako napunta matapos ang insidente. Not gonna lie though, I feel comfortable here.

Dark.
Black.

Pitch Black.
Pitch Dark.

Brownout.
Black out.

That's all I can see. Darkness.
Madilim..
Parang singit mo lang, madilim.

Where am I? I feel weird. By weird I mean, I can't feel any pain. Can't feel it in my head, shoulders, knees, and toes.. hey! Eyes and ears and mouth and noes. You get my point.

Pero I can hear things without seeing where it came from. Parang merong third eye sa tenga, pwede ba yon? Basta! Naririnig ang mga bagay na di nakikita. Third ear!

Nasa upsidedown ba ako? Paano naman ako napunta dito?

Naputol ang pag iisip ko when I heard footsteps coming near me. A woman's voice came next, she has been visiting me. Again.. I can't see her, but I can hear her.

She started singing while gently caressing my cheeks. Not sure why I can feel it pero..

"If a picture paints a thousand words then why can't I paint you? The words will never show the you I've come to know..." If by bread, I can vaguely remember. Her voice brings sweet serenity to me. It feels.. it feels like.. home.

Who are you?

Sige maririnig ka.

"..And when my love for life is running dry, you come and pour yourself on me... Please wake up now sweetie." As she ended, her presence beside me was also gone. A tear then escaped from my eye.

I want to wake up.. but how?

Mumulat ka.

Oh. Right. I never really did try to open my eyes. Silly me!

Okay. In three we go.

One!

Two!

Three!

"Miss Lei Vivienne Martin! Can you hear me?!"
