Prologue

I can feel my heartbeat getting faster for the steps I'm taking. My feet felt heavy the more I get closer to him.

"Zauthea, I l-love-" he can barely speak because of the pain he's enduring at this moment. He tried to touch my face, hands were shaking, covered with blood, he tried to smile a little but all I can see was the pain.

I can hear the shortness of his breathing, eyes were slightly opened but as time goes by, his eyes slowly closed. He failed to reach for my face as his hands fell on the ground.

Naramdaman ko na lang ang walang humpay na pag-agos ng luha mula sa mga mata ko. Parang may kung anong tumuturok sa dibdib ko sa mga oras na ito. Nanginginig ang mga paa't kamay, pakiramdam ko ay nanlalambot ang mga ito.

"No..." the only word came out from my mouth, lips were trembling as I caressed his face, bathing with his own blood.
