Then I saw my 6 year old sister on the couch. I heard her praying out loud.

"L-Lord God, do I have to louder my voice to make you hear me?" she's crying now while staring at a cross over my body's head.

"I lost my parents and I don't want to lose my Kuya. He's the only one I have. Please let him stay with me. Please! I'm begging you." She's pleaded.

As I was staring at her, I felt the great weight over my chest. I was so dismayed with what I've done. I feel pity for my sister. She's just 6 years old but she already felt this burden.

"You feel pity of your sister?" Jelsha asked.

"Yes, I regret what I've done." I replied.

"She's so brave, even though she's just 6 years old she does not forget that in times of hardship God is one to be called. See you wanted to die, but she's praying for you to be alive. Now are you ready to come back again to your body and to live your life?" she continued.

"Yes, I am." I answered.

"Go on, live your life." Jelsha said and smiled.

I walked towards my body and laid myself to it. I opened my eyes and saw the white painted room, my body is aching. I tried hard to move my fingers a bit.

"Kuya! You're awake." Angela said gloriously.

She hugged me so tight and said while crying. "Kuya, please never do that again. Please I don't want to be alone."

 "Yes, Kuya will never do that again." I said as I tried my best to hug her back.

On that day onwards, I realized that life is worth living. It may be full of difficulties but the important is, you survive those twist and turns.

Life is the most precious gift that God gave us. We are so lucky to have it free. We are so blessed that even though we don't plead, it was given to us. We should value it because not everyone has it. 

Life is worth living because we are so in need of everyone who depends on us. Life is worth living because the real happiness is to be a blessing to someone who's been so frustrated and you'll be the one to make him/her enlightened. We may struggle in this world but in God's goodness we can conquer all fears because we should believe the scripture in Romans 10:11 "Whoever believes on him will never be disappointed." So never waste life.

Few days after, my sister and I walk on the park. I hold her wrist as we were sharing stories about her classmates and experiences in her school. We are so happy and delighted.

A sudden thought came to my mind,

"Did Jelsha survive her operation? I hope she does."

 My thought was abruptly cut off when Angela ran towards the balloon vendor.

"Kuya, I want that SpongeBob balloon. Please buy me one." She pleads and pouts.

"Okay, you're so addicted to SpongeBob." 

Then I bought the balloon. She holds it so tight and kisses it. She really loves Spongebob.

Suddenly her handkerchief fell down on the ground, as I reached for it, I saw a girl reaching for it too. A face that was so familiar. The girl that I have seen gloomy on that unreal day was now so blooming on this unexpected day. She was so beautiful. She smiled at me cheerfully. She was Jelsha.

The End?
