Julia's POV

What's going on Sweetie?-Dad

mahinahon na tanong sa akin ni Dad. Tumingin ako kay Mom and she just look at me like telling me, it's okay to tell them everything, they will understand.

There's a weird thing happened to me when I was in coma.

I started. I looked at them and they are waiting for the next words I'll say yet the expression of assurance that it would be alright, they will understand,is in their faces.

I met an alexander named Quen. An alexander is cupid's assistant in matching people to their true love.

I started to see confuse faces but no one dared to talk.

He told me that my true love needs to cry before 25 days end or else I'll die. I thought it was Tristan but when the doctor said that the prayer will probably the only way to save me, Mom burst out to tears and you brought her Dad outside. And that's the time I saw Tristan crying but nothing happened. I just then realized that he's not my true love.

They are more confuse now, but still no one dared to talk.

I ask my alexander why? what's happening but he has no answer. He went to cupid to ask what's happening to my condition, then cupid told him one sure thing. He can save me. I spent my whole 25 days with Quen. While waiting for my true love to cry. I got the chance to know him. even though he's just an alexander, there are good things I admire about him. I came to the point that I was doubting my feelings because I guess fell inlove with him. My 25th day came and still no one came to save me, my true love didn't came. I was telling Quen that I'm not hoping anymore that my true love would come. But he was just quite and asked me to go to the roof top of the hospital. In the last few minutes of the 25th day he told me, he's my true love. I was surprise that he would tell me but maybe I was not shocked because I'm inlove with him. He told me that after that day, I will live and does he, but he will become a human and he won't remember anything about me but in my side, I will. At the last 30 seconds of the 25th day he cried for me and after that I was alive na. I know it's hard to believe but that's really what happened Mom and Dad.

My tears started to roll down to my cheeks. I looked at them directly in the eyes and I saw an emotion that I don't want to see anymore. It's like a helpless emotion.

Wh-why you didn't tell us this sweetie?-Mom

Mom started to cry na rin.

It's because when I woke up from coma, I was emotionally unstable. Ayoko na mag alala pa kayo sa akin. I don't want to see you helpless with what's happening to me. Hindi ko rin alam dati kung paano ko malalampasan yun Mom, Ang sakit kasi eh, nabuhay nga ako, mawawala naman ako sa ala-ala ng isang nilalang na mahal ko.

Humihikbi na ako habang sinasabi yun kay Mom. Si Dad naman gusto nang maiyak. No please. Never ko pang nakitang umiyak ang Daddy.

Sweetie, I'm sorry-Dad

Dad?-Julia

Siguro kaya nag aalangan kang sabihin sa amin kasi hindi kami laging nandito sa bahay, kasama mo. Siguro iniisip mo baka hindi ka namin maintindihan. Anak naniniwala kami sayo. Hindi madalia ang napagdaanan mo kaya dapat nasa tabi mo kami nung mga panahong yun.-Dad

Umiyak na nga si Daddy. Ang sakit tingnan na umiiyak si Dad, never ko pa siya nakitang umiyak. At ngayon umiiyak siya dahil sa akin.

No Dad, wala kayong kasalanan ni Mommy. Lagi kong ipinapasalamat sa Diyos na kayo ang parents ko. Ang swerte ko nga sa inyo eh. Hindi ho kayo nagkulang, ako ho yun eh. Takot kasi ako sa makikita kong sakit na mararamdaman niyo pagnalaman niyo ang pinagdadaanan ko ng mga time na yun. Hindi ko yun kayang makita Dad. Ayaw ko yung makita.-Julia

Sobrang umiyak na ako. Nagpapaligsahan na ang mga luha ko sa pagbaba mula sa mga mata ko.

sshh sweetie, tahan na. -Mom

yakap yakap ako ngayon ni Mom and Dad habang umiiyak. Ilang sandali pa, iniharap nila ako sa kanila.

Listen sweetie, from now on, always remember this, wala ng masasakit pa sa mga magulang kung nalaman nila nanghihirap na ang kanilang anak kung tapos na ito. Mas gugustuhin ng mga magulang na samahan kayo na mga anak nila sa pagharap sa pagsubok na pinagdadaanan niyo. Kaya next time, don't hesitate to tell us if may bumabagabag sayo, okay?-Dad

yes Dad-Julia

Pero Sweetie, ano ang connection ng nangyari sayo while you are in coma sa sitwasyon mo ngayon with the Bernadilla and Lopez?-Mom

I sigh first bago ko sila sagutin.

Remember nung sinabi kung Alexander na inlove ako? Kier Bernadilla looks like him. When Kier first held my hand, it was like Quen hold my hand too. He is the perfect photocopy of Quen. I got a chance to know him and mingle with him when we cater for Liza Lopez' welcome party. That was the time when you had a vacation in LA. Siya ang inatasan for the food and Kelly gave me responsibility of it kasi may iba rin siyang inasikaso. Hindi sila magkapareho ni Quen pero hindi rin sila nagkakalayo. After the welcome party, I thought hindi na kami magkikita kasi wala na namang rason para mag-usap pa kami. But he went to our office, the next morning and ask me to go out. Yun yung magkasunod na 5 days na magkasama kami na lumalabas ni Kier. Yung sa article yun yung sa first day and last day. But that last day was also the last day na nagkita kami ni kier, not until kanina.-Julia

Sweetie, please tell me honestly, Are you inlove with Kier-DAd

napayuko ako sa tanong na yun ni Dad saka sumagot.

Ye-Yes, I guess, I'm inlove with Kier-Julia

Sweetie-Mom

halos pabulong ng sabi ni Mom.

Iniwasan ko naman po eh. Lagi kong sinasabi sa sarili ko na hindi siya si Quen, tulad ng una kong pag-aakala. At lagi ko ring ipinaalala sa sarili ko na ikakasal na siya. Bago pa lumabas ang article announcing the engagement nila ni Liza, alam ko na. nagbigay na kasi ng hint sa kasalan nilang dalawa sa welcome party ni Liza. Nung time palang na yun, sinasabi ko na sa sarili ko na dapat ko na siyang iwasan. Pero nung ayain niya akong mamasyal na nasundan pa ng ilang beses ay hindi ko nagawa. Mas nanaig yung kagustuhan ko na makasama siya kahit man lang bago siya ikasal. Ayaw ko man na aminin ko sa sarili ko that time, I know, inlove na ako sa kanya. Alam ko may mali rin naman ako sa nangyayari ngayon, but Mom, Dad, please believe me, wala po talaga akong balak na sirain ang kasal o agawin man lang si Kier kay Liza. Masaya na ako na nabigyan ako ng chance an makasama siya.-Julia

Umiiyak na naman ako.

Ssshhh, wag kanang umiyak. Naniniwala kami sayo, okay? Sa lahat ng bagay, alam namin at sure kami dito, hindi ka namin pinalaki na mang-aagaw at alam namin na hinding hindi ka sisira ng isang relasyon lalo't alam mo na may masasaktan. Hindi ka selfish, okay?-Mom

Mom, Dad.-Julia I hugged them. Ang sarap lang sa pakiramdam na ang mga importanteng tao sa buhay mo, naniniwala sayo.

don't worry sweetie. Walang makakapanakit sayo. I won't let anybody to hurt you o ipahiya ka. Ang nangyari kanina sa party ay hindi na mauulit. Okay?-Dad

okay Dad. thank you Mom and Dad. I love you po-Julia

We love you too sweetie.-Mom

Can I have a request po?-Julia

Anything sweetie.-Mom

Can I stay here po, kahit 1 week lang po.-Julia

Kailangan pa bang ipagpaalam yan? Sayo pa rin naman tong bahay ah? Kaya kahit 1 buwan o forever ka na dito ay okay lang, okay?-Dad

Opo, thank you.-Julia

Sweetie, I want you to move on from this. This is just a mess, don't stuck yourself in it. Live tomorrow as if this stuff didn't happen, okay? Live a normal life.-Dad

Yes Dad, I will.-Julia

Then I hugged them again. This is what I really need and want. The feeling of being home.
