"Hindi lahat ng iniiwan, pwede mo pang balikan."
After five years...
"Man, gumigising ka na ba? Holy shit! Raine, pumunta ka rito! Tignan mo siya dali."
"Totoo na ba 'yan? Baka mamaya joke nanaman. Lagi mo 'ko niloloko na hayop ka."
"Oo baliw. Totoo na 'to. Gumagalaw na mga mata niya oh. Twinkle, twinkle."
Is that Ryoga and Raine? Why are they so loud? And why does my back ache so much? It feels like I took a rest lying on the bed for a long time.
I fully opened my eyes and I saw Ryoga staring at me closely. Sinapak ko ang mukha niya dahil sobrang lapit nito na kulang nalang ay halikan niya na ako. Tinulak siya ni Raine and he has his stethoscope. He is checking me.
"Aray ko naman." Reklamo ni Ryoga. "Pero man! Hallelujah gising ka na talaga!"
He shouted and he hugged me. He even kissed my cheeks. "Jesus loves you! I missed you!"
"Get off of me. Are you fucking gay?"
Tinulak ko siya ulit at umupo ako sa may kama. Ang sakit talaga ng likod ko. I stretched my body and I feel so comfortable doing it.
"What the hell happened? Bakit ang sakit ng katawan ko? Why do I have this too?" Ipinakita ko ang kamay kong may dextrose at inalis ko ito.
"Man, mag pahinga ka muna. Baka mabigla ang katawan mo."
"Mabigla? Bakit?"
"Wala ka bang natatandaan?" Tanong ni Ryoga sa akin and I can see sadness in his eyes.
"What?"
"You were sleeping for five years." Raine answered at nanlaki ang mga mata ko.
Five years?! Why was I sleeping for five years??
"W-why?"
Unti unting pumasok sa isipan ko ang nangyari sa amin ni Ryoga. We went to a rest house to save my sister from Dred, Danmer and David. Ryoga helped us to find them. Tapos ang daming kalaban. I was with Evan and I was trying my best to fight with all of those men in the area para hindi siya masaktan o malagay sa peligro.
Danmer shot him on his leg and he shot him again pero humarang ako. Humarang ako dahil na aalala ko ang habilin ni Ryoga na hindi dapat mamatay si Evan sa laban na 'yon. Ako ang tinamaan ng bala. Lucia was there and she was crying so hard.
Ryoga helped me and he carried me. Tumatakbo kaming lahat but Ryoga and I fell somewhere and a bomb exploded that I lost my consciousness.
We were in another room again and there was a bomb again. I was dying and Ryoga couldn't find a way to escape. His hands were full of blood and he was so frustrated. We called Raine. We talked to him and we talked to Lancie.
"Si Lancie...n-nasaan siya? Is she here too?"
She told me to live. She told me to fight and that she would wait for me. She even said that I was already a father and she was really pregnant with our first child. If five years has been passed, our child should be four years old now. Right? Malaki na siya.
Walang sumagot sa kanilang dalawa at nagka tinginan pa ang mga ito. Para bang nag uusap sila at nag tuturuan gamit ang mga mata nila kung sino ang sasagot sa tanong ko. What's with them?
"Hey. Why can't you answer me?"
"I-ikaw na ang mag sabi, Ryoga. Huwag ako." Raine said at umiwas ito ng tingin sa akin.
"Bakit ako? Ikaw ang may alam ng lahat ah! Na coma rin ako."
"Anong na coma? Comahin kita riyan e."
