"Semi, kain na please. Lalala yung lagnat mo."

"Ayoko nga, Ma! Busog ako, okay?"

"Anong busog? Kagabi ka pa walang kain!" But Semi just shrugged and stared at the window beside her. Walang naggawa ang ina niya kaya binaba nalang ang pagkain.

"Nasan naba kasi si Ate?" Reklamo niya kanina pa. Her sister left to buy something. Pero ilang oras na at hindi parin ito bumabalik.

Her name's Semi. She's 19 years old and she's sick. She's been in the hospital for 3 days pero kahit may lagnat siya, ang hyper niya parin.

She sneaks out everytime and walks around the hospital. Kahit pinagbawalan siyang lumabas, hindi niya hinahayaang may pipigil sakaniya. Nurses and hospital staffs got tired of stopping her so they just let her be.

She's super friendly kaya lagi siyang binibisita ng mga kaibigan at kaklase niya. She's bubbly and sometimes weird. Kahit malayo ka, maririnig mo parin ang boses niya.

Everyone adores her, especially her sister. She spoils Semi everytime. The two of them are super close. Mas close siya sa ate niya kesa sa ina niya.

"Looking for me?" The door suddenly opened. Semi's eyes twinkled as she saw her sister again.

"Finally! San ka ba galing?" Her sister chuckled and put the plastic bags on the table. Agad namang tumakbo si Semi at tiningnan ang mga dala ng ate niya.

Her name's Stellar, but Semi calls her Starr. She's the opposite one. An elegant, demure, ladylike and soft 21 year old. Unlike Semi, she's shy and fragile. Napakahinhin at parang hindi makakabasag pinggan.

But she's smart, kind and all. The epitome of beauty and brains. Semi is her everything. She'd do anything just for her sister to be by her side.

"Mogu mogu?! I love you talaga ate!" Semi screamed and immediately drank it. Napailing nalang ang ina nila. She refused to eat but when it comes to Stellar, agad siyang sumusunod.

"What's wrong?" Tanong ng ina nila. Her name's Alyss. Nakita niyang saglit na natulala si Stellar.

"Nothing mom. It's just that...on my way here, may nakasalubong ako. There's been a commotion on the emergency room. Hindi ko masyadong makita ang mukha niya but he looks like a guy around my age. Nagwawala..." Tulalang sagot ni Stellar. Semi paused drinking for a while and looked at her sister.

"Poor kid. Ayaw niya siguro dito." Alyss said and fixed Semi's bed. Kinain nalang rin niya ang pagkain na dapat ay kay Semi.

Stellar just shrugged at nilabas ang laptop niya. She sat at the couch and started doing something in it.

"Studying again? Please, ate can you just leave it for a while? I need company! Mas importante ba talaga yan kesa sakin?" Semi pouted her lips.

"It's our finals week, Sem. I need to finish this para makapag exam ako sa major subject ko. It may take a long time but I'll finish it as fast as I can." Stellar answered while focusing on the screen.
