Meanwhile...

"Ang daming nagbago sa kaniya, Doc."

"Like what?"

"His routines for the last three years have changed drastically. He even started singing a certain song almost everyday while doing the dishes. He also seemed happier each day but I assumed it was because of his friends coming over every now and then to visit him."

"Well, have you changed the way you move around him too?"

"Yes, Doc. At least twice a week, sinasabi ko sa kaniya 'yung sakit niya. Right after he wakes up. That'll lead him to either crying out for few hours or tatahimik siya. But I think normal lang naman po 'yun, 'di ba?"

"Yes, it is. But have you told him about the accident?"

"Hindi po. As much as I can, iniiwasan ko iyon. Ayoko nang ipaalala sa kanya dahil baka lalo lang lumala 'yung kondisyon niya dahil dun."

"Good. But I suggest na mga once a week mo nalang sa kaniya sabihin ang tungkol sa sakit niya. We're still searching for some kind of cure for his mental condition and so far, iisa pa lang talaga ang naco-conclude namin."

"I-iyon po ba 'yung sinabi niyo sa'kin last month?"

"Yes, Mrs. Choi. I'm very sorry pero kung wala pa rin kaming mahanap na alternate solution for him, I'm afraid we'll have to go with that one."

". . ."

". . ."

"Kung para sa ikabubuti ng anak ko, papayag po ako."
