ANDIE’S POV
Kinakabahan kong tinawagan si Yumi, halos hindi na ako makapagsalita ng maayos nang kausap ko si Yumi sa phone...
After my call, dali-dali naman silang lumabas ni Kevin...
I saw Yumi running towards us “What happened?” gulat na tanong ni Yumi at napatakip siya sa kanyang bibig.
“Stay here, I’ll call an ambulance” natataranta na ring sabi ni Kevin nang makita niya si Keith na walang malay at duguan.
“there are five goons... that are chasing after me... then Keith saw it... he fought back... then someone stabbed him from behind...” umiiyak na sagot ko.
“gosh!” napatakip naman ng bibig nasabi ni Yumi...
After a few moments dumating na rin sawakas ang ambulansyang tinawagan ni Kevin.
“Keith! Hold on!” sabi ko kay Keith na wala nang malay pero patuloy pa rin sa pag-agos ng dugo mula sa ulo niya..
‘God... please... please. Save him from danger... I don’t know what to do when I loose him...’ I prayed in silence.
Sinakay na nila si Keith sa ambulansya, sumakay na rin ako doon...
While Kevin and Yumi followed us..
‘Keith! Hold on!’ I said in my mind... I can’t speak... It seems like all my strength was gone.
‘Lord, please.. i-save niyo po siya... parang awa niyo na po..’ I prayed again in silence while holding Keith’s hands tight.

Dali-dali nilang pinasok sa operating room si Keith...
“hanggang dito na lang po kayo miss” sabi nung nurse sa akin then sinara na ang pinto ng OR...
I sat on the bench and prayed in silence.
Dumating na rin sina Kevin and Yumi...
“besie!” sabi ni Yumi na tumatakbo na papalapit sa akin.. “where is he?” tinuro ko na lang kung saan siya dinala.. I can’t really speak...
If I try I will only cry...
I can’t be weak right now... Keith needs me.. I have to be strong even if I want to cry out loud right now..
“he will be fine...I know him.. he’s a strong man...” pagpapalakas naman ng loob na sabi ni Kevin sa akin.
“God will save him... he’s a good man...” sabi pa ni Yumi while gently patting my back.
“I don’t know what to do if i loose him” I said while fighting my tears from coming out.
“You won’t loose him... he will be fine... everything will be fine” sabi naman ni Yumi.
“What if his Mom will be mad at me?” sabi ko habang pilit na pilit pa rin sa pagpigil sa mga luhang kanina pa gustong bumagsak..
“His Mom will understand... wala kang dapat na ikatakot... Keith just saved you from danger... she should be proud that his son was a fighter...” pagpapalakas ng loob ni Yumi.
“Yeah... Tita Kate will understand..” sabi pa ni Kevin.
“I hope so..” the tears that I am trying to control came out.
