Nagpanic sila kagad ng sumigaw si Cloe na gumalawsi Cas. They called a doctor to assist Cas....

While doctors are doing some tests to Cas, nasa labas naman ng kwarto nya sila Cloe at naghihintay. Cloe was walking repeatedly side by side along the hallway. She just stopped when the doctor came out of Cas' room....

"How is she?" – Cloe asked quickly as soon as she saw the doctor.

"Patients in limbo does move, but it's an involuntary movement but in your friend's case, Cas is still there, lumalaban pa sya and this movement can be a good sign. Sooner or later pwede syang magising, but I don't want you guys to expect a lot. I can't give you a specific time kung kelan sya magigising. But she's fine, that I can assure you." – the doctor explained to them. Pumasok naman kagad si Cloe to see Cas....

"Tsk! Pabitin ka pa bes! Hindi ako natutuwa bes!" – Cloe said with a teary eye, kung kanina umiiyak sya because of a sad situation, ngayon, umiiyak sya because she just proved na nakikinig sa kanya at sa mga sinasabi nya si Cas....

They stayed for a few more hourse but Alex decided to go home kaya nagyaya na sya....

Paglabas palang ng kwarto ni Cas, naunang naglakad si Cloe. Hindi nya pinapansin ang mga kaibigan lalo na si Bel, di parin kasi nya akalain na magi-give up sila kay Cas. "They gave up so easily." She said in her mind. Feeling nya sya nalang ang kumakapit sa pag-asa na magigising pa si Cas....

"Cloe. Sorry for what I've said earlier." – Bel

"Forget it. Say sorry to Cas wag saken. You gave up so easily." –

"Kung si Cas mapapatawad kayo ng ganun kadali, don't expect me to do that too, I can't forgive you so easily like you did to Cas, kilala nyo naman siguro ako."

"Cas just proved na kakayain nya and I will assure her that I'll be there with her all the way to her recovery. After you said those words, Cas simply replied that DON'T. It's your decision what should you do." – Cloe uttered habang nakatalikod kay Bel. Seryoso naman nakikinig ang mga kaibigan nya sa kanya, para syang ate na nanenermon sa mga kapatid nya.

She left while her friends are stuck on their position. Sumakay kagad sya ng kotse nya and drove home.

"She's right." – Ellie

Next day....

Umuwi si Cloe mag-isa. Hindi na nya hinintay sila Bel and went home right away. She then decided to take a nap so she'll be in the hospital early....

"Cloe! Talk to Bel! Ano ba?!"

She was awaken by the sound she heard. She roamed her eyes para hanapin kung saan galing ang tuno at boses na narinig nya. Nagising na sya ng tuluyan at narealize na....

"Just a dream." – She said

Time check. 4:39pm....

Nagbibihis na si Cloe toget ready to visit Cas. Naalala nya padin ang panaginip nya. Her dream was Cas saying na pansinin si Bel.

Nagpunta sya sa ospital and found Bel sitting beside Cas while Alex, Ellie and Ellisse are sleeping peacefully. She heard na kinakausap ni Bel si Cas. Lumapit sya ng dahan dahan to listen what Bel is saying....

"Cas. Sorry for saying those words to you yesterday. Sobrang nahihirapan lang ako sa sitwasyon naten. I didn't mean to hurt you in a way and I really don't intend to give up. Nakita ko kasi na nahihirapan na din ang mama mo."
