-----
A/N : Pasingit lang. Sa mga hindi pa nakakapagbasa, may narration ang ibang araw dito na nasa book na Goodbye Girl : Days to Forget. Baka mas maintindihan nyo yung pains ni Helga run. It will help a lot to read it. Also, some of the days in Mount Apo will be written sa Days to Forget. Keep yourselves updated, okiz? ^__^

Isa pa, some of you may think that Ash has been selfish and insensitive for leaving Helga without notice. Some of you may think na si Helga naman ay sobrang pabebe at matigas ang ulo at maarte. But in the end, they are just two people na baliw magmahal sa isa't isa, bounded by their own limitations and bad decisions. Let's be with them until the end, okay? Salamat sa lahat ng mga nagbabasa!!! Kapit lang sa rough ride. It will be worth it. ^___^
