kakagaling ko lang kay Doc Justin. sya nag aalaga sa kin. at sabi nya, 24 hours na lang daw...
ako...
i had a severe seizure kasi kanina and i almost died. pero na-revive nya ako.
Doc justin's been taking care of me ever since i got in the hospital.
i have this sickness. ung lumiliit ang puso. he told me maaagapan pa daw sana kung na-operahan ako nung bata.
kaya lang sino naman mag aalaga sa kin. both my parents passed away when i was still a baby. car accident. we were going somewhere when a truck hit our car.
it was a miracle daw na nabuhay ako.
how do i know? it was in the papers. they, from the orphanage i came from, kept it for me. memories of my parents. sad memories...
i moved here sa hospital when i collapsed one day at school. so basically, this is my home.
i haven't introduced myself yet...
i'm Patience...Patience Gonzales.
but doc Justin prefers on calling me Pat.
so...that's my life. if you can call it a life.
nandito ako ngaun sa garden ng hospital. trying to find a beautiful view. to paint my last painting.
painting, drawing.. it has been my only hobby ever since. i can say i'm good at it.
hmmm...mukhang wala na magandang view. i guess i already painted all of them..
but something caught my attention. or someone.
there was this old couple not very far from me. the man on the wheel chair and the woman on the bench beside it. they were holding each others hands. the womans head on her husbands shoulder. they look so inlove.
i opened my drawing book and i started drawing them.

......
"wow. you're good" a voice behind me said.
"ay pusa!" shocks!
"woah.. sorry i startled you." he said. "can i sit?" he asked me.
"sure." then i continued with my drawing.
.....
"i'm Bryce by the way... Bryce Santos." he said then offering his hand for a shake.
"Patience...Patience Gonzales." then i shook his hand. "Can i get back to my drawing?"
"oh..yeah yeah. sure. sorry. go on." then he sat straight. "b-but i can watch right? can i?"
"hmmm..sure." i smirked then got back on my drawing.
.....
"do you have more drawings? do you paint too? you know you can put up your own gallery and sell them."
owkaaay..sya na madaldal.
"yeah i have more drawings. and i also paint."
"can..can i see them? if i cant ok lang. i dont mind." he said.
well hindi naman ako madamot sa paintings ko...
"sure. but can i finish this first?" i asked him.
"oh sure sure. sorry. ang daldal ko." he said then scratched his head.
