"Wrap these up for me. Thank you." I commanded my assistant doctor during the surgery. Lumabas ako ng operating room at sandaling sumulyap sa wall clock. It was 4 in the morning yet I'm still doing a meningioma removal from the brain. I washed my hands down to my elbow and instantly went to the locker room to change clothes. 

Lumabas ako ng silid na iyon at nagsimulang maglakad patungong ground floor. It was quite scary since I could hear the aircon rambling outside. Para bang nasa isang horror movie ako kasi sobrang aga pa at andito na ako sa ospital. Wala naman akong magagawa dahil eto talaga ang schedule ko. I just can't keep on complaining. Di tayo aasenso nun. 

"Pssst." someone spoke and I jolted. Hindi ko ito nilingon at tuloy-tuloy lang sa paglalakad. Nasa second floor na ako kaya keri lang to! Putek. Mamaaaaa. 

"Regine!" Hindi ko pa rin nilingon kung sino mang masamang espiritu ang lumalapit at tumatawag sa'kin, leche! 

Hindi na siya nakuntento kasi hindi ko talaga ito nilingon at wala akong balak lumingon sa kanya, kinapa na ako sa balikat. I gathered courage and instantly turned back and I saw that man. "Aaaaaaaaah!" Pikit mata ko siyang pinagsususuntok sa matigas niyang dibdib but all he did was laugh.

"So nabuntis ka lang, ginagawa mo na akong punching bag?" 

I slowly opened my eyes and yes, it was merely him. 

Sinuntok ko siya ulit. "Alam mo, gago ka talaga no? You're scaring the hell out of me and for goodness sake it's only 4 AM Padilla! Magkaka-altapresyon ako ng wala sa oras dahil sa'yo e! Di na ako magtatakang makunan ako ngayon dahil sa kalokohan mo."

"Nerbyosa ka lang talaga." he clunged his arms around me and we started walking. "Ba't ang aga mo ata?"

"Wednesday ngayon. Schedule e. Out ko naman mamayang 9." Mariin kong tugon. 

Robin was just whistling himself around the corner as we saw Doc Salvador passing by at the other ward. Nagra-rounds ata. "Andyan na si President. Pasa na tayo habang maaga pa?"

Kinapa ko naman ang malalim kong bulsa. Luckily I found the request letter there. Buti nalang at naisipan kong dalhin to sa kahit na anong oras at san man ako magpunta dito sa ospital sakaling makita ko si Doc. Robin also got his in his pocket at agad naming sinundan si Sir Salvador. He turned right at the internal med ward and dun rin kami pumunta. As soon as he finished talking with a certain watcher, kami namang dalawa ang sumingit.

"U-uhm, good morning sir." I greeted him.

Napalingon naman ito sa'min and gave the both of us a genuine smile. "Good morning Dra. Velasquez. May I help you with anything?" he slightly peeked at Robin.

"Well, we came here to see you and give this to you." sabay namin inabot ang mga mahahabang sobre na bitbit naming dalawa. He was a bit chortled but still kept his disposition. "A request letter...for resignation."

Disappointment drawn in his face, he sadly recieved our letters as he put it inside his doctor's gown pockets. "Are you really sure about this? Are you leaving London for good now?"

I heaved a sigh. "Yes. I'm going back to where I really belong, I'm going back to my own country where I can be more happier. And ever since, my life really is there." maikli kong tugon. 

"For me...I want to be more than this, Doc. And I think moving out is the best stepping stone and going back to the country will make a little progress." Robin also explained himself. We glanced at each other and instantly went back to our head's attention.
