Several years pass and there is still something bothering me. I regret all the childish act I'd done that time. I wish, I could go back the time and listen to her.
“Mom and Dad, I wish you we're here so you will see how successful I am. You will surely be proud on what I achieved now. Mom, I am so sorry and I hope you already forgive me. Dad, I know that I must not act brat when you were still alive. I wish, I could go back in time so we can have a long and beautiful bonding. I miss you both, surely heaven is a beautiful place in you. I know that we will see each other in the right time, pero wag muna ngayon ah?”
“How are you?”
“Y-you came. You're back!”
“Huh? I don't get it?”
“I wish...”
“And what is the connection of that to me?”
“I wish for you.”
“You wish for me? Why? I thought you're mad at me?”
“Rami mo namang tanong!”
“What?”
“I said, I'm sorry. I'm sorry for not listening to you before. If I listened to you then my parents were still alive.”
“No, it's okay. I know that it will happened.”
“You k-knew?”
“I didn't tell you because it's a top secret, AND I will disturb the future if I possibly told that...”
“H-how will you disturb the future if you'll just save your parents? My parents.”
“That's it! I should not tamper events that will cause the future to change...”
“But what's with to secure my future all along?”
“I just want you to realize your mistakes and cherish your moment with your parents.”
“Ah, so now why are you here?”
“I'm here to help you prepare.”
“Prepare? For what?”
“Something big will happen in you life.”
