"The sound of the clock ticking,
The sound of the ECG monitor,
And the blowing of the wind outside the window is all I can hear in this hospital room, where we are both stuck. The silence here is too loud I can tell. But, it's 21not the silence itself that is bugging me right now.
It's you. It was always you from the very beginning.
Why can't you take care of yourself properly? I told you to be happy even if I'm gone but why did this happen?"
*Sigh*
"I would do anything just to see your eyes wide open again. I would do anything just to see your smile again. I would do anything just to be with you again until our hair turned grey. Anything, I would do."
"But, would I be able to do those things with you while you're here? Lying down, unconsciously, with an impending death. "
"If only I was there for you. I'm sorry. I wish you could hear me right now and know how sorry I am. "
"I don't know if you'll still wake up or not."
"But I will never stop hoping. Because I still believe there is a hope for us in the future."
"So please, I hope you wake up soon"
"But after everything I did to you..."
"Will there be a hope for us?"

Yamato's POV
My name is Yamato Uchida. I'm half Japanese and half Filipino. But my Japanese blood is stronger than my Filipino blood. I was born in Manila. My hairstyle is the same as Jin's messy curtain hair with a brunette color. I am currently living in Batangas City. My classmates always ask me if I know any Japanese words and if I can teach them but, I don't know anything. I got my Japanese blood from my father, Hinote Uchida. And my Filipino blood from my mother, Esme' Cruz. My mom is currently in a coma. It's been 2 years since she experienced this kind of disease that led her into oblivion.
And then there's my father, not even caring about her. He just sent us money for the hospital bill. He has a new family already. A new child and a new wife. But at least he still sends us money.
I wonder how will my mom react to this....
Anyway, right now I'm 6 years old. I come to the hospital every after my classes with the help of my grandmother. She's the one taking care of me right now.
Maxine's POV
Hi, my name is Kaia Maxine Guilia Abbruzzese. I'm half-American and half-Italian. But right now, I'm in the Philippines. I had a father. He was a famous racer. But he died from a car crash when he came from the afterparty, they said he was drunk.
His name was Alessandro Abbruzzese. He was good at racing. I watched all of his races and he always wins. I wish I could do that until now. He died because there was a blind turn in the race track, so he didn't see the staff trying to fix the cones. But gladly that staff didn't die. However, they fired that staff after that incident.
We didn't have enough money to pay for my hospital bills and the expenses in America are higher that's why we transferred here.
Well, I don't mind because the people here are nice. It's just that I don't know how to speak Tagalog.
My mom is American. Her name is Venetia Abbruzzese. She owns a small business near the hospital. She sells sweets like cake, ice cream, bread, chocolates, etc. But our customers are not that many though.
We pay for my hospital bills with the help of my aunt the leftover money of my father.
I am suffering from coronary atherosclerosis disease. I was born with it. My grandfather had one too and he died already. My father had some heart infections too but not as severe as my grandfather's. However, I inherited it. I just hope that it doesn't happen to me too.
I am currently 8 years old. I stay here in the hospital because my mom is busy and she doesn't have time to look after me. My illness is severe which can lead to unconsciousness and shortness of breath that's why the doctors and nurses have to look after me.
It's kind of confusing since my mom just stays at her shop but she looks really busy. She leaves her shop every night.
I wonder how she's doing right now.
But anyway, I just read books as my hobby or maybe sometimes play games and watch TV.
It's my dream to be an actress
But in my condition can I achieve that?
I hope so...
~~~~~~Hope for us~~~~~~~
