That was the longest 15 minutes I've ever felt in my entire life.

I mean, have you ever wished something to fast forward so it would be finished and your sufferings will end at that time? Because I do.

The excruciating pain dug all over my body... my bone, and the feelings? It feels as if my bone is breaking into pieces and it's not just that. It also felt like my body's scorching as if it's toasting every flesh I have within me, that after is done, I couldn't help but feel how really weak and drained I am.

Isang malalim na hininga ang aking pinakawalan nang maramdaman kong mawala ang sakit at mapalitan ng pamamanhid sa aking katawan. I know that my face is full of tears- Mr. and Mrs. Rodriguez even averted their gaze to me as if they couldn't contain themselves seeing me begging for them to stop the pain, even though they know that they can't do something about it.

Kaya't nang mayari ang labinlimang minutong puno ng sakit ay ang pagginhawa rin ng itsura noong mag asawang nasa harapan ko.

At dahil walang nurse dito, si Mrs. Rodriguez mismo ang tumayo at nagsimulang punasan ang aking mukha at katawan gamit ang kinuha nitong bimpo na may maligamgam na tubig. I'm shivering from the intense pain I've felt and that's when I've noticed that I'm sweating despite how my body's feeling so cold and numb from the pain.

Marahan ang pagkakahawa niya sa akin at para bang takot na mas lalo akong masaktan. Indeed, I'm a little scared that my bones might turn into pieces once being gripped even just a normal grip because of how painful it is. Ngunit pakidamdam ko'y dahil lamang iyon sa sakit- because it seemed as if the cure really seek through every bit of my body just to find the viruses and kill it.

"How are you feeling?" Mrs. Rodriguez asked as she chuckles looking at my weak face. Nanlalambot ako na tumingin sa kanya kahit pakiramdam ko'y gustong bumagsak ng mata ko sa pagod.

"Freaking hell," I told the truth and didn't hesitate to use that word to express what I'm feeling right now because truth to be told, I'm really feeling so hell right now.

Natawa ito bago bumaling sa akin.

"Tignan mo ang sugat mo," she told me that I looked at my wound as my eyes widened a little despite feeling weak because it turned back to normal! No more ugly and disgusting view because my finger... it's back!

"But that's not the only thing that the cure can do. Kaya rin nitong isara ang sugat mo na mula sa kalmot o kahit anong may kinalaman sa zombies dahil tulad ng sinabi ko, it's an anti-virus. It'll seek for every virus left in your body and kill them,"

"And I don't know how Francisco created such unique one because this one also triggers your cells in your body, making them restore in its original looks just fifteen minutes," My eyes really look so big, I think, right now after hearing what she said. Natawa ito sa aking ekspresyon at tumango kahit hindi pa ako nagsasalita.

"Unbelievably unbelievable, right? But that's what happened to my husband," She said as she looks at the back of Mr. Rodriguez who resumed their works before we proceed in their place.

I turned back my attention to Mrs. Rodriguez as I heard her sighed heavily and when I look at her, I saw her hands forming into a tight fist that is resting in her thighs.

"I should be mad from what our head scientist did for the world... but I can't deny that without this, evil people would only continue to corrupt this land until we will be left into pieces, with no food at all," She said with so hatred... from both parties as I couldn't help but think about the news I've always heard before this apocalypse happened.

Yeah... the corruption was all over the news. This generation reached the peak of overpopulation yet no one wants to give a solution with this- the government actually abusing this generation to their evil greed and personal needs that they're using those people who are unfortunate, to cover up the wrong deeds they are doing.
