ROVI unconsciously stand in that spot in the rooftop. The same spot where he first saw the surgeon who drive him nuts. Ramdam pa niya ang kakaibang saya na naramdaman niya the first time they meet right there. That was truly ecstatic and life-changing. Those are the few moments that he felt he was alive. But now he gazes there like a can of sadness.

Mapakla siyang natawa ng makita sa kanyang bulsa ang scalpel na nagdala sa kanya kay Renzo. His one and only scalpel which engraved his initials. R.V. and a heart sign.

It's the same scalpel he bought back in college days that he swears will only fulfill its duty once she was healed. Pero ngayon, it is his palms that bleeds from the cuts of this medical tool. He lacks tears to shed now, all he has is blood to ease the pain he is feeling right now.

Isa-isa niyang inalala ang masasakit na salitang narinig niya kay Max

"He loves you so much Doc. But you just played him like a stress ball. You know bakit kami magkasama? He is dying. He wants to tell you that he has Hypertropic Cardiomyopathy. There's no definite cure for it that's why he asked his cousin to conduct tests on him. He said he has an estimated 9 months to live. Sinamahan ko siya to find a heart donor for a transplant."

How does he become that ignorant for tim to not notice the illness he has been keeping for a very long time?

"He is crying to me for days, begging me to stay away. But I can't. He is crying to have you by his side Doc. Ganon ka niya kamahal"

"Walang nangyari sa amin. I just made it look like that to make you get rid of him. I should've succeed rather than made him suffer this way because of you. You are a shit head dumbass you know. He's probably happier kung di ka na dumating."

He is right. Mas masaya nga siguro si Renzo kung di na siya dumating sa buhay nito. But he's been just following his heart and he can't rebel against it. There's something in him that makes every edge and every corners in his body protest against his highly logical mind.

He can't handle the pain anymore. Iniayos niya ang kanyang braso at matiim na minasdan ang kanyang pulso. Can this be the answer to all the problems he have? By cutting that vessel, all his pain will disappear with him and all the toubles he caused hopefull might do the same.

Akmang hahalikan na ng matatalim na ngipin ng scalpel ang kanyang pulso ng dumating si Kristan. The man who once helped him build his broken self

"That won't solve anything you know. Sige cut your self. You will just lose a chance to save one of them Rovi" matiim nitong babala sa kanya

"how can I save them, if I can't save myself in the first place?"

"You have saved yourself a lot of times Rovi. Nung nasa Russia ka pa, you know I see your struggles but you never give up. This Is the time you should never give up. Lalo na you have a much worse thing to do"

"What do you mean?" kaagad na nagtaas ng kilay ang naguguluhang si Rovi

"You have to do something vital in order for one of them to be alive" bigkas ni Kristan sabay abot ng isang folder sa kanya

"There are two patients, but there's only one heart that matches with them. There's no space for drama now Rovi. You have to be logical because their lives is now in your hands"

"Fuck..." mahinan g napamura si Rovi ng mabasa iyon. Parang nawala ang lahat ng kanyang lakas sa kanyang nabasa. How is that even possible? Akala niya he's on the worst situation already. Akala niya nasa gitna na siya ng dalawang nag-uumpugang mga bato na dumudurog sa kanyang pagkatao, per ngayon parang napiisak na siya ng mga ito dahil sa bigat ng desisyong kanyang gagawin

He has to give up someone's life in order to save the other's.

Whom will he choose? The girl who's the reason behind who and what he became over the years or the guy who has taught him that he is someone more than just a cardiologist?
