Only Fools: The Final Stretch (Completed)

3

After Bea's presentation, bumalik na sya sa usual pwesto nya sa garden. A few seconds after, andun na din si Thirdy. Nagusap sila ng maayos.

"So, nakapagdecide ka na ba if you're staying or leaving?" Bea asked him.

"Ahh actually, I decided to stay, although temporarily. I will not leave until I talk to you about everything."

"Fine, kung gusto mo magusap, sige, magusap tayo." Bea agreed.

"Dinner?"

"Okay and we'll talk like adults."

"Same number?"

"Isusulat ko sa papel, wait."

"Nagpalit ka pa ng number para hindi kita matawagan." Thirdy complained.

"Don't think highly of yourself." Bea said as she handed the paper with her number on it.

"Message ko sayo kung saan." He said as he looked at what's on the paper.

She was still using her old name, napangiti si Thirdy, thinking it was a sign that she's not yet married.

And he left.

Jules and Cait helped Bea with her dress and gave her things to remember

Anton helped Thirdy with his, he gave the same advice.

When Bea arrived, Thirdy was already there. She can't help but remember how she took care of him while he was receiving medication for this tumor.

"Please konti na lang." Bea pleaded.

"Pagod na ako sa mga iniinom kong gamot, Bea, pagod na din ako."

"Sige, humiga ka na muna and I'll tell you about the movie."

Thirdy rested on her legs. She was crying seeing Thirdy having a hard time with his sickness."

The following morning, she brought soup for him.

"Bea, ilang beses ko na sinabi, hindi ako makakain, I feel so, so sick. Please huwag mo na ako gawan ng pagkain."

"Thirdy, kailangan mo kumain. Paano ka lalakas? Pupunta tayo sa hospital bukas. Kumain ka naman, hindi lang for yourself but for those people who loves you. Mabuti pa, isarado na muna natin itong laptop mo so you can rest."

"Bea, bakit ba hindi mo maintindihan, may sakit ako, hindi ako bata. Stop acting like my mom!"

"You need to eat, you need to rest -"

"Ayoko nga!" He said as he threw the soup Bea cooked for him. "Pag sinabi kong ayoko, ayoko. Leave me alone! I want some peace of mind!"

Bea stood frozen as Thirdy exits. Naiyak na lang sya.

Pagbalik ni Thirdy, Bea was already seated at the couch. Umupo si Thirdy sa harap nya. He took her hand.

"Ayokong mawala ka, ayokong iwan ka. Bea, I don't want to die, natatakot ako." He told her, he was crying hard.

"Huwag ka matakot, hindi ka mamamatay, mabubuhay ka pa ng matagal, para sa akin, sa atin, please."

"I love you, Bea. Sobrang mahal kita."
