The sun was still up and the air was humid again when Jade and I landed on the busy airport of NAIA Terminal 3. We're welcomed by our friends all eager to see us and to know every detail of our trip especially when Jade raises her left hand with pride. 

I felt proud of it too, not that I can soon finally wed her but because she looks genuinely happy and it showed in her eyes, those dazzling brown orbs. Which sent my heart warmth and butterflies in my stomach. It's her just being her, which makes me fall for her more each passing moment.

We agreed for a catching up dinner courtesy of my Jade at their restaurant in Quezon City. We were along Shaw Boulevard when David's car slowed down and pulled into a full stop. There's a buildup of cars and people ahead so I decided to check it out with David, hoping we could just take the right turn on Shang.

People were swarming like bees from their cars and they're talking about some white van or something. When David and I reached the designated right turn there was a sudden commotion, the low buzz of people suddenly roared into screams and some even ran away from where we were.

Then I heard the first gunshot, my heart raised when everything went slow-motion my head darted to where the white van was coming from followed by a few police cars and along with the quick movement was the dawn of realization, there I saw him, gun aimed out of nowhere and anywhere but me.

I tried to move out of the spot but I can't move a muscle. I felt the sudden impact of a small piercing object on the left portion of my torso and just before I could react on the hot red liquid gushing from the wound I felt another one hit me on my head, and I was suddenly numbed by it. I felt something shutdown on my head and I turned for help.

"David..." I half shouted and I saw him turned my way horror in his eyes. I passed out.

Have you ever experience lucid dreaming? Where you feel your spirit awake and functional but your body is immobile; that's how being in a coma felt like, it was like being trapped in your own body. I can hear them talking all of them. Uncle Lucky, Batchi, David, Wila, Sally, Cess, Tito Oscar and Tita Amanda and Love love. I can hear their every prayer and I answered to all of them but my body won't do it.

I was helpless; I can't feel anything but I know I've cried with Jade when she was losing all hopes on me. I wanted to hug her and hold her tight. I wanted to just snap out of it and be alive again but I can't, it's like was chained or there's a magic force field around me where time stops. Like a black hole.

I heard Uncle Lucky and Jade's conversation that night, I was scared and I regretted keeping the truth from her. That night Jade didn't come back after Uncle Lucky told her about me, about us; I expected that though along with the fact that maybe she would never return at all.

But I was wrong, because the next morning I heard her talking to me again, her voice came to me like a whisper I can't hear it clearly but she suddenly held my hand and put it against her cheek and I didn't stopped myself from communicating to her in the only way possible on that moment. I let her enter my mind, I showed her every moment we're together in the past 500 years until the day I asked her to marry me.

And that was it.

"Uhmmmm..." I hummed my head was violently throbbing it was like my heart replaced my brain and it's malfunctioning and my hearing was ringing, I can taste dehydration on the back of my throat like poison, my senses slowly surges back when I was able to open my eyes.
