It was summer when you first chatted with me with a hi.
I was wondering if I should reply or not cause they say strangers bring danger. But in the end, I reply hello, since I'm bored at that time.
We became close friends then lovers.
On our 1st anniversary still the same.
We still have that same feeling when we have our first conversation. We always talked about our future, yes I know it's too early pero naghahanda lang naman kami dahil gusto namin makasama ang isa't isa habang buhay.
Everything is perfectly flowing not until you were diagnosed of having narcolepsy (a chronic sleep disorder characterized by overwhelming daytime drowsiness and sudden attacks of sleep.) Only I can make you awake so that you'll still live.
We always talked and play since that is the only way to keep you awake.
I always say to you that no matter what happens please stay awake because we'll still gonna fulfill our promises to each other.

"I'm tired," you said.
"No, please stay awake. You'll recover someday, okay?"
"Okay, and if that happens I'll marry you right away, babe. I love you."
"I love you too," I said while holding my tears from not bursting.
How many times have you asked to rest? I don't know since I already lost count. I know I'm selfish for having you not rest but I don't want to lose you.
I don't want them to take my sunshine.

It's our 2nd anniversary, we celebrated our anniversary in the hospital.
I sang our favorite song, which is you are my sunshine.
"You are my sunshine, my only sunshine
You make me happy when skies are grey."
I hold your hands tightly cause I know we will overcome your illness.
"You'll never know, dear, how much I love you
Please don't take my sunshine away~"
"Can I rest now, Love?" he said in a husky tone.
"Are you really tired? I'm sorry for not letting you rest. You can now sleep, I love you," I said
And with that, you fell asleep and never opened your eyes again.
— The Summer of Love.
