I Fell In Love with a GUERRERO

Ch. 15 I Second Life

(unedited)

They say that our lives are borrowed from God, and we will have to return it to Him. But what if I want to return it now?

Will He accept it?

Ayaw ko na kasi... Masyado ng masakit ang buhay na ibinigay niya sakin.

In Wattpad books, fairy tales and movies, ganito ang buhay ng mga bida. I wanted to be like them, gusto ko ako ang bida... Pero ganito talaga ka sakit maging bida. Halos kaluluwa mo na ang kapalit ng happily ever after... Yung hindi pa epilogue pero ubos kana.

I am 17 years old, but I'll be turning 18 soon. Despite my youth, I feel older and weary. My heart aches, and I feel like I've experienced enough already. It's as if my heart is already full, and I can't take it any more. Sakto na...

But what if i give up, which i could easily do... Paano naman yung naiwan? It's not like iiyak sila sa burol then after kong ma libing ay ayos na sila.

I've been into that state, and it was more than not okay. Kahit one year, ten years or longer, the pain will still be there...if mawala man, may longingness eh.

So I decided to move forward and fight once again. I don't want to hurt my family...even though i already did but still... Bida ako, walang bida na namamatay.

" Fuck! Fuck! Dad! Everyone! Gising na si bunso!"

I distinctly heard a loud shout from my brother. I tried to adjust my vision but couldn't look forward. All I knew was that he was making a commotion. I recognized his voice, I was sure it was him.

I couldn't move my fingers, and I couldn't feel anything. Why was I like this...and what was happening? Why was there a doctor checking up on me?

Teka--- nasaan ako?

The doctor spoke, "Okay, Miss Cueva. Can you follow the light with your eyes? Try to move your eyes and follow the light, okay?"

I did as the doctor instructed, following the light with my eyes. It felt strange. Everything seemed odd. It was as if I had just taken a quick nap, and now I was waking up to this situation.

I turned to my father and asked, "Dad, for how long have I been asleep? Is it still since yesterday? And why am I here? What happened?"

My entire family is here, even my best friends. We're in a hospital room, I'm sure this is a VIP one, judging by its size.

They've prepared banners, with messages like 'Get Well Soon' and 'Stay Strong'. There are balloons too, it's like we're having a party in here.

Dad set aside the mini knife he used to slice the apple. "Honestly, to tell you the truth, you've been asleep for two months now, baby." He spoke in a gentle voice. "As for what happened... Don't think about it for now. You need to rest, okay?"

Two freaking months?!

"Bakit 2 months dad?" Gulat kong tanong.

"You were in a comatose state because there was a lack of oxygen, and you inhaled too much smoke. You were in critical condition, but you fought bravely, anak. Your dad is proud of you." He said to me and patted my hair.

I nodded hesitantly. So I've been asleep for that long,huh? Cool--kidding!

Lumapit si Kuya Zander sakin, "Gusto mo ng cake,bunso?" Sabi niya at ipinakita ang cake sakin.

"Sure,kuya" Masigla kong sabi. Kukunin ko na sana ang plato pero inilayo niya ito.

"Oppss!" Pigil niya. "I'll spoon-feed you, relax kalang diyan"
