"Oh anak, gising ka na pala. Are you okay na? Do you feel any pain? Should I call Doc?" sunod-sunod na tanong sa akin ni Mommy noong dumating na sila ni Dad.
"I'm okay po mom. Don't worry about me, okay?" I said while caressing her hand to calm her down.
"How can I not worry about you huh? You look so weak."
"Mom, I know there is no cure to cancer but gumagaling pa rin naman yung ibang tao dun a."
The shock was visible on her eyes. "Did you hear us?"
"Yes mom. You don't have to hide it. Sakit ko to kaya dapat kong malaman. Diba?"
Naiyak nanaman si mom noong nalaman nya na alam ko na. She doesn't need to worry about me because I know naman na matagal pa buhay ko. Diba sabi nga nila na ang masamang damo di agad namamatay. I know na isa akong pasaway na anak at nakakagulat lang talaga na biglang may pake na sa akin sila mom and dad. Well maybe narealize na nila na hindi nila ako naalagaan ng maayos dahil sa may sakit na ako ngayon.
