Asthasia's P.O.V:

I'm now sitting on the floor, feeling so down.

"Bakit ba kailangan pang magsasabay-sabay lahat ng problem ko" I ask myself, I was crying so hard. My phone rung, it was mom, I answered it

"Hello mom?" I said

"Hello baby? I know it's hard for you, but I need to go to the U.S, Xyan is in critical condition right now, tumawag sakin yung rescue team, found my number on his phone, Please take care of yourself, do you understand?" I can hear her sobs

"Please take care of yourself too mom, please tell kuya I'm waiting for him" sabi ko habang pinipigilan ang luha na pumatak sa mata ko.

"of course... I'll tell that, Goodbye baby" my mom said

"Goodbye mom" That's the last word I say when mom hangs up the call.

I tried to text my friends but I think they're too busy, Hindi pa siguro nila nababalitaan, I want to just sleep, I hope what happened today is just a dream... No a nightmare. I feel so unloved, if I can only disappear in this world, I will do that. I close my eyes but my tears kept falling and falling I just want to sleep. Tumayo ako at punta sa kwarto ni kuya, there I saw a sleeping pills, naiwan niya siguro, I took 5 pills at ininom yun, slowly nararamdaman ko na parang ang bigat ngkatawan ko, naramdaman ko ang pagbagsak ko sa sahig at unti-unting kong naipikit ang mata ko.

"Finally... I can sleep peacefully"

Shaharra's P.O.V

I'ts already 7:30 in the evening, kakatapos lang ng work, so I opened my phone and there I saw Asthasia called 7 times, so contacted her back but she did not answer. So instead I called ate Ja, she answered it

"Hello sha, come here immediately or call the ambulance please" she said panicking

"what? Anong ambulance? saan?" nahawa na rin ako sa pagpapanick niya, what is happening

"here at Asthasia's house, bilisan mo" She said. I ended the call immediately, I don't what's happening but I know it's urgent, I called the ambulance and told them the address. Pumunta na ako sa kotse ko at nagdrive

"Alam na kaya ni Simon to?" I ask myself. I contact him but his phone was off, so I just called Vincent, he answered it immediately

"Hello, Vincent? Is Simon with you?" I ask

"He's on his room, hindi ko alam kung anong ginagawa niya" he said

"nakapunta ba siya kay Asthasia kanina?" tanong

"yup, doon nga siya nanggaling kanina eh" sagot niyo

"feeling ko something happened to Asthasia, nandon kasi si ate Ja and sinabihan niya ko na tumawag ng Ambulance kaya naman tinawagan ko si Simon but his phone was off kaya ikaw nalang" Sabi ko habang nagmamadali

"what do you mean? Anong nangyari kay Asthasia" bakas sa boses nito ang kaba at pagaalala

"I don't know pa, maitatanong ko pa ba yun kung sobrang nagmamadali nako" I said

"ok, I'll tell my Kuya's na lang, just inform me, kung anong nangyari and saan hospital para makapunta kami" I just say yes and end the call.

"Please protect her God, I don't want to lose someone important" I said while driving. A few minutes later, I arrived. The ambulance was already there, I saw Asthasia laying on the bed, Yung hinihila di ko alam tawag don eh. I saw ate Janice I hugged her

"What happened ba talaga?" tanong ko

"I was a missed call, from Asthasia so I called her back, but she didn't answer so I just go straight here in her apartment akala ko wala siya kasi Kahit anong katok o pagdoorbell ko di siya sumasagot, buti naalala ko binigyan niya tayo ng duplicate keys, kaya hinanap ko sa bag ko, when I opened it, di ko siya nakita sa kwarto niya or sa sala, aalis na sana ako pero nakita kong nakabukas yung kwarto ni Kuya Xyan, so I looked at it, I Asthasia Laying on the floor, I tried to wake her up pero hindi siya nagising, then nakita yung nanagyan ng sleeping pills, inisip ko na maybe she uminom siya non kaya hindi siya magising, hindi ko na alam gagawin ko, I tried to find her phone pero hindi ko mahanap, sakto tumawag ka sakin and then sinabi ko sayo" she said while crying

"Bat hindi ka tumawag sa phone mo?" I asks

"nabablanko yung utak ko, hindi ko na alam gagawin ko kaya naman hindi ko naisip yun agad" Sabi niya at humagulgol

"stop crying na ate, She will be fine, magigising siya agad" I said, para naman tumahan siya Kahit papano. Pumasok na kami sa kotse ko at sinundan ang ambulansiya, tinext ko na rin kay Vincent yung Hospital na pupuntahan namin.

Simon's P.O.V:

I was in my room, I can't cry, ako yung may gusto nito kaya dapat maging matapang ako, Maybe if I only knew of what happened to Xyan hindi ko magagwa to, dumagdag patuloy ako sa problem niya. I was thinking deeply when some one knock on my door aggressively I opened the door and saw Vincent and kuya Sandro

"Why" I ask them both

"Si Asthasia, dinala sa Hospital, puntahan natin" Sabi ni kuya Sandro. I was so scared... What happened to her? Magbibihis na sana ako para sumama but I realize... Maybe she don't like to see me

"kayo nalang" I said forcing my tears not to fall

"what did you say? Ganyan na ba talaga katigas yang puso mo kuya? She needs you, She's your girl-" -Vincent

"We already broke up" sabi ko at napatigil siya

"Why did you do that? YOU SHOULD BE THE ONE TAKING CARE OF HER!!" Vincent said

"FOR WHAT!? Pops wanted me to go to France, He wanted me to work there together with Tita Irene, I can't take Asthasia with me, she has her own life here in the Philippines" I said

"You'll go to France? why didn't you tell us? we can talk to Pops" Kuya Sandro said

"no need, tomorrow na yung flight ko, ok na yung Visa ko, tuloy na tuloy na yung pagalis ko, matatagalan ako don so please take care of Asthasia nalang, don't tell her, baka pigilan niy lang ako" I said and closed the door
