Keiz Vera as Kim Sunoo
Colt Hidalgo as Nishimura Riki
Gab Dela Torre as Yang Jungwon

there was an overwhelming sadness as the sun bid it's goodbye, the colors of the sky screamed the end as the stars began to shine. Keiz hurriedly went out of his car, eyes blurry as he broke down in front of colt's house, unable to stand as his knees trembled, falling into the ground.

he struggles to breathe, he can't breathe as his chest tightened, unable to form a cry as if he went muted. "C-Colt.." he finally called, stuttering as he tried to enter the house only to be stopped by the police making him cried louder. "C-Colt!"

"I-I n-need to s-see h-him, p-please.." he begged, the only time he begged but the officer still said no, shaking its head.
"c-colt... p-please, l-let me s-see him-"

he was cut off by the sudden open of the door making him stunned as his heart beat starts beating so fast with him feeling goosebumps along with the sudden swaying of the trees. his breath hitched-he froze on his spot, unable to move as soon as his eyes dropped on the carrier being carried by the police. his hands felt cold, trembling as he hurriedly ran towards it. "w-where's c-colt?" he asked, stopping them as he had a hard time formulating a sentence. "he's okay right?" hope within his existence, hope that he never thought existed. "tell me!"

but he heard no response, gently shaking their head as they sadly gazed at the carrier. they apologetically bowed before saying various of sorrys but he heard nothing as his agony was the only one that can be heard, as his cries echoed. "n-no!" Keiz shouted, shaking his head as he kneeled, hands trembling, lips even quivering in fear as his chants were repeatedly no's inside his head. "C-colt...." he called for the nth time, bawling as his tears didn't stopped from falling.

he cried, hands softly caressing the white blanket as his heart felt numb. his heart's bleeding, mind's screaming, eyes bawling as he felt a body beneath the blanket making him more sad as he cried nonstop. "Colt!!" he called in agony, hugging the body as he shook his head, couldn't accept it. "C-Colt! Wake up!" he cried, shaking the body, hoping that colt is just sleeping. "p-please..." he breathlessly whispered, caressing its face. "y-you p-promised.... p-please w-wake up.. I-i n-need you, colt.."

he heard cries but as if he went deaf as colt's cries that repeatedly plays inside his head is the only thing he can hear. "your blanket's suffocating y-you.."

he gently took off the blanket that covers colt's face and to his horror, he screamed, scared as he he bit his lower lip. He stomped his feet, punching the ground as he didn't know what to feel. he screamed as he hugged the body once again because beneath that white blanket is a lifeless Colt.

"no, no, no! wake up please, I beg you!" he shakes the body repeatedly earning a worry from the officer which stopped him, signing the officer to take the body. "Colt!!"

"w-why d-did you all took him away f-from m-me.." he cried, still punching the ground, struggling to breathe, eyes blurry, head's hurting. "w-why.." he asked, earning silence from others as he cried uncontrollably.

"Keiz, l-let's g-go..." his friend called, worried as he cries along with Keiz too. he hugged him every so tightly as he let Keiz cry in his chest, fist punching his back.. "Keiz.."

"they t-took him... Colt's lifeless, gab... h-he w-was so p-pale, h-his eyes were shut, he's gone..."

Gab caressed Keiz's hair and hugged him again, still hearing the cries from the other as he screamed in agony again, chanting Colt's name. "h-he left me.."

"Mr. Vera..." the officer called, but Keiz remained in his position, still hugging gab as he disregard everything around him which made the officer sighed, pitying him. "We found a letter in Colt's drawer...."

Keiz stopped and silently faced the officer.. "w-what l-letter?" he asked nervously as he stood up with the help of gab. his eyes were hopeful, hands holding together. "f-for m-me?"

the officer nodded as he gently handed him the letter, bowing before walking away. "condolences."

Keiz thought that his eyes can no longer produce tears but he was wrong when he again cried upon holding the letter. he nervously gripped on it as he shook his head, cursing. he scanned the back of the envelope and once again fell.

"0227-7492-910-143." (I wanna rest, I wish I could have a better life, sorry I hurt you, I love you)
