Everything

May mga bagay akong napagtanto sa pamamagitan lamang ng pagpasan sakin ni Worth papalabas sa lugar ba ito.

He was making me strong, at the same time weak. He was slowly teaching me the real ambience of life, the people's life below me and his. Hindi ko nakita iyon noong una at iyon ang nagpapahina sakin.

The villagers that he showed me were the importance of trust and acceptance. I never saw that. Pinapakilala niya sakin ang lahat ng mga emosyong hindi ko pa nararamdaman sa buong buhay ko.

The days when he was away, he made me feel the longing, missing, and patience. Mga bagay na mararamdaman ko pagdating sa trabahong pinili niya. Mga bagay na paninindigan ko kung sakaling mananatili ako sa kanya.

The shots he had when he came back, those were consequences yet courage as well. Ang pananatili ko sa bahay niya ay ang paraan niya para iparamdam sakin ang iba't ibang emosyon.

Kahit ang mga maliliit na bagay. Kagaya ng pagsayaw namin kasabay sa iba pang mga tao sa labas ng salamin, ang paghahanda sa kaarawan niya. Made me see that not all things come to a good end after a hardwork. And our dance, even the smallest of things he was doing affects me so much. Kahit ang simpleng pagpasada niya lang ng kamay niya sa pisngi ko na palagi niyang ginagawa.

He was showing me everything life was all about.. in his own, simple ways. He was gentle and careful to me at every step. He's showing about the life most people had. Most people felt, most people would have to live on and it's not easy. Sometimes, being kind and good won't get me anywhere.

He knew about me all along and he was preparing me for this. Para sa mga susunod na mangyayari sakin--samin. Para sa bagay na ito.

He's trying to change me, my dream. He wants me to risk, to want me to know that I can have more, I can still ask for more because that's what I deserve.

Sa mga panahong pinagdududahan niya ang sakit ko, gusto niyang humangad pa ako. More than me and someone like him. He wants me to be healed.

Did it change now? No. After everything he showed me, no. I'm still the dream. I want him to learn something too. I hope he'll see that sooner.

Nanatili ang titig ko sa mukha niya. Bahagya nang nagkukulay puti ang salamin na nakaharang sa kanya dahil sa paghinga niya. But I can see his green eyes fixed on front.

May mga tunog ng baril na umalingawngaw sa paligid. We are no longer on hallways but in an open field.

"Come on, come on! Let's go, mate!"

I can hear the sound of a hellicopter and Stuart's voice.

Humarap ako sa unahan at hindi ako nagkamali nang makita sa Stuart na nakaluhod sa paanan ng hellicopter at nagpapaputok ng hawak niya. I don't what is it but it's much bigger than rifles.

Puno rin ng katawan niya ng nga gintong bala. Halos iyon na ang nakikita ko na nakapulupot sa katawan niya.

"Ahh!!" Malakas niyang sigaw habang nagpapaputok. May ngisi at pagkagigil sa kanyang mukha.

He's shooting right the people running behind us. I can see Worth's other teammates too, running and shooting towards us. Most of them are wearing doctor uniforms and patches. I noticed Worth and Yarah's suits too. They are all here in disguises.

"Did you find the main cure?!" sigaw ng isa nilang kasamahan nang makasabay ito sa pagtakbo samin.

Tumalikod siya pero nanatiling tumatakbo patungo sa sasakyan namin.

"Negative! Where the fuck was team Bravo and air support?!" malakas na sigaw ni Worth pabalik. The sound of the hellicopter was blocking his voice.
