"Doc? Nasan ang room ni Niana Yvonne Ramirez?" i said na halos mahirapan sa paghinga.

After that sweet moment with Peter at his room may tumawag sa amin and received a news that Niana was admitted to the hospital at nahihirapang huminga.

"Maam sorry wala pong Niana dito. Baka nasa emergency room pa po"

Agad naman kaming nagpunta ni Peter sa emergency room and there we saw Niana's mom, Ate Rhea, Chloe, Clark and Markus. They are both scared amd crying. Agad naman kaming lumapit sa kanila.

"Anong nangyari Tita?" Peter asked to Niana's mom

"Hindi ko alam Peter. Umuwi nalamang siyang nahihirapang huminga. Kaya sinugod ko siya agad dito sa ospital."

Agad namang lumapit si Peter kay Niana. I followed him and saw Niana crying habang nahihirapang huminga. She's very pale ang getting weaker.

"Pe-peter, yvette" she smiled as she saw us.

How come she can smile habang nasa bingit siya ng kamatayan.

"Peter make her happy huh?And Yve? do me a favor? Please dont leave him again or else ill hunt you when i became a ghost "

"No Niana kaya mo pa iyan okay? lumaban ka" I said. Hindi ko mapigilang hindi umiyak.

Kahit hindi ko siya nakasama at nakilala ng matagal. I became close and a friend of her. I witnessed how pure her heart and intentions are.

"Pagod na ako Yve. Gusto ko ng magpahinga" She whispered at tinignan si Peter. Hinawakan niya ang mukha ni Peter at hinawakan naman ni Peter ang kamay ni Niana.

"Peter, Sana kapangalan ko magiging first baby niyo ha? Peter I love you and you deserve Yve. You de-deserve each o-other"

"Niana pls wag kana magsalita nahihirapan ka ng huminga" Peter said at umiiyak din siya. I can see how worried he is and how much he dont want to lose Niana.

"Anak? Kung pagod ka na magpahinga ka na. Ayoko na nakikita kang nahihirapan oaky? Maging masaya ka anak Mahal na mahal kita" Wika ng mama ni Niana at hinalikan niya ito sa noo.

"I love you too mama, salamat" As she said those words she stops breathing.

"Nianaaa" her mom said.

"My young girl, she was born with this disease. Throughout her life wala siyang ibang ginawa kundi ang labanan ang sakit niya. As her mom i always ask myself. Why my daughter? Saan ako nagkamali? Bakit ang anak ko ang pinaparusahan ng diyos? Niana grew up with  her mind open to positivity. Sa kabila ng pagiging mahina niya pinilit namin na bigyan siya ngv normal na buhay kasi iyon din naman ang gusto niya. Anak kung nasaan ka man ngayon salamt, salamat sa pagtitiis at sana maayos na ang kalagayan mo ngayon. Sa wakas at natapos ang iyong pag hihirap anak salamat sa lahat ng ginawa mo para kay mama" Before we let go of Niana we give and delivered our speeches for her.

Nasa sementeryo kami ngayon. Nagluluksa. Malungkot dahil sa pagkawala ng isa sa napakabait na taong nakilala ko sa buong buhay ko. There are students here from SBU and teachers, nakikiramay din sila. Pati TR'S at THX andito din after all they became or should i say we became a part of Niana's jourey.

now it's my turn to give my speech for her. Hindi ko alam kung saan ko magsisimula.

"Niana is a good friend of mine. Before i knew her i tend to judge and discriminate her. But after she befriends me? i realized how pure her heart is. I realized how good she is. How beautiful she is from outside to her inner self. She is such brave, a good and amazing woman i have known in my entire life. At alam ko, alam natin na kung nasaan mn siya ngayon ang gusto niya ay masaya tayo kahit wala na siya. Hindi naman siya nawala dahil andito pa din siya hindi lang natin siya nakikita. She will stay with us as long as we belive. I love you Niana may you rest in peacefulness" i said  at tsaka umupo ulit sa upuan ko. Peter hold my hand tightly as he stand. Kasi siya na ang susunod na magbibigay ng mensahe. He let go of my hand and stared at me for a while before he proceeded.

"I was inloved at her, She became my strength when i was weak. My wings when i was not able to fly by myself. She became a very close friend, and sister to me. I fell inloved seeing her everyday fighting for her life and giving herself a normal life. Despite of all the struggles she still continue to live as if she's normal. She always makes herself and others belive that after a hurricane there comes a rainbow after it. She was my positivity. We are all sad for our friend, family and loved one, Niana has passed away. Pero walang maggagawa kung iiyak at magmumukmok lang tayo sa isang tabi. Remember that niana is a positive girl so let us stay brave and positive for her. For she don't want to see us drown ourselves in sadness. I know na kung nasaan mn siya ngayon she is happy and fine at binabantayan niya tao" peter said at tsaka siya umalis doon at tinabihan ako.

I know how he was inloved with Niana. Niana is loveable no wonder Peter had fallen for her. We can't have jer back ang kailangan namin ngayon is acceptance.

After mailibing ni Niana we visited her kinabukasan.

Peter hold my hand as he put the flowers in Niana's grave.

"Niana Happy Graduation Day in advance" i said.

"Happy graduation day sa atin mare. sayang hindi ka umabot tapos hindi mo maabutan kasal namin ni Yvette. Huwag ka mag alala. Aalagaan ko siya tulad ng pinangako ko sayo" Peter said infront of Nianas grave.

i smiled and wrapped my hands on his waist.

"Thank you Niana for clearing up my mind sa panahong naging tanga nanaman ako. Without you? our lovestory wont be together again" I said as Peter claimed my lips.

"I love you Yve 3 000 times"

"I love you too Peter"
