(maagang nagising si Eigh kinabukasan at hinalikan nya si Ryuu sa pisngi, dumeretso sya sa chapel at kumain ng sandwich mula sa ipinahatid nila Cha. Dumating din ang ilang bisita para sa araw na iyon, naabtan din nilang gising si Ryuu kaya sobra ang kaliagayahan nila para sa mag-asawa. Kinagabihan, habang nagkkwento si Eigh tungkol kay Ghie at Seung Ri.)
R: E..
Eigh: yup?
(lumapit si Eigh sa tabi ni Ryuu at naupo sa sofa sa gilid ng kama, hinawakan nya anga akamay ni Ryuu.)
Eigh: what is it?
R: 'o 'om... 'ake 'est... 'be 'ine...
(ngumiti si Eigh.)
Eigh: don't worry I'm not gonne be tired and stressed out... I'll stay here till you are fully recovered.
(pumatak ang ilang luha mula sa pisngi ni Ryuu.)
R: 'o 'om... 'ake 'est... 'e 'ine...
(hinawakang muli ni Eigh ang kamay ni Ryuu, at naramdam nyang ipinipisil din ni Ryuu ang mga kamay nito, kahit sobrang hina.)
R: 'est... 'e 'ine... 'o 'om...
(naluluha na si Eigh habang nararamdaman nyang nahihirapan si Ryuu, tinignan nya ito sa mata at sinasabi nito ang pangako na magiging okay lang si Ryuu at ang pagpipilit nito na pauwiin muna si Eigh. Matagal bago sya nakapagsalita.)
R: 'on 'ay...
Eigh: I'm not... I'm not...
(pinupunasan ni Eigh ang luha nya.)
Eigh: if that's what you want, I'll go home for tonight... you'll be fine, promise me you'll be fine...
R: 'ams...
(ngumti si Eigh at tumayo ito para tawagin si Shey, iniayos nya na ang kanyang mga gamit, hinalikan nyang muli si Ryuu sa noo at sinabi nyang magpahinga na rin ito. Lumabas sina Shey at Eigh sa kwarto.)
Eigh: I am leaving him to you, Shey...
Shey: you can trsut me, Eigh.. I'll do my best.
Eigh: if something happened, phone me once.
Shey: yah, yah... go home now I'm sure Ryuu will be happier once you took enough rest.
Eigh: okay, okay...
(binuksan muli ni Eigh ang pinto para magbabye kay Ryuu, nagflying kiss pa sya dito at nginitian sya ni Ryuu. Umalis na si Eigh, nagtaxi sya pauwi. Pagdating nya sa towhouse, nanunuod ang lhat ng TV, nagulat sila sa pagating ni Eigh.)
Ghie: Eigh...
(sinalaubong sya ni Jop para tulungan sa gamit.)
Eigh: hi,
Cha: how's Ryuu?
Eigh: he's fine.
Ghie: have you eaten something, yet?
Eigh: I haven't took dinner, yet.
Ghie: Seung Ri! Prepare dinner for Eigh!
Seungri: yes ma'am...
(ngumiti si Eigh.)
Arw: it;'s nice to see you smiling again...
Cha: haha, yah... and to make you feel better...
(iniabot ni Cha ang magazine kay Eigh, tinignan ni Eigh ang cover page sila ang bida dito ang mga Princess. Iniabot din ni Arwin ang isang magazine, tiningnan ito ni Eigh, top 100 bachelors ang nasa cover page at ang cover print ay si Jop,.)
Ghie: he haven't told us, about it...
Cha: they, heven't told us about it...
Eigh: Arwin is inside too?
Arw: haha, top 9...
Eigh: oooh, congratulations... I'll bring this to Ryuu tomorrow I'm sure he'll be glad...
Cha: yah, yah... but for the mean time, eat and take your rest...
Seungri: Eigh dinner is ready.
(kumain si Eigh at naligo tsaka sya naggoodnight sa mga kaibigan nya at natulog. Kianabukasan maagang umalis si Eigh, sumama ang lahat ng mga kaibigan nya dahil nag off sila sa trabaho nila bilang mga presidente. D7umating sila sa hospital at pagtapak pa lang sa pinto nanghina si Eigh, buti na lang nasalo sya ni Arwin at Jop,)
Seungri: are you alright?
Eigh: I'm fine...
(umakyat sila papunta sa kwarto ni Ryuu, pagdating nila dito nakita nila si Shey na nakatayo sa may pintuan at hawak ang phone.)
Eigh: Shey!
(masiglang bati ni Eigh, tumingin sa kanya si Shey at bumagsak ang hawak nitong phone, umiiyak si Shey at tumakbo sya kay Eigh at niyakap nya ito. Nanlaki ang mata ni Eigh nang maramdaman nya ang kalungkutan ni Shey, naitulak nya si Shey sa tabi at nasalo ito ni Seung Ri, tumakbo si Eigh papasok sa kwarto ni Ryuu, may mga doctor sa paligid ng kama ni Ryuu, nang makita nila si Eigh, lumabas ang mga ito, lumapit si Eigh kay Ryuu na ngayo'y nakatakip na ng puting kumot. Nanghina si Eigh, napatakip sya ng bibig at napaupo sya sa sofa, tinanggal nya ang kuot sa ulo ni Ryuu at hinawakan ang noo nito... naiyak pa rin si Eigh. Pumasok ang mga naiyak nyang kaibigan sa kwarto para hawakan sa balikat si Eigh, dahil sa ngayon ito lang ang magagawa nila, lumabas sila kaagad at tumawag sa magulang ni Eigh. Umiiyak pa rin si Eigh, nang kunin na ang bangkay ni Ryuu para dalhin sa morgue. Pumasok muli sa kwarto ang mga kaibigan nya.)
Eigh: he told me he'll be fine...
(niayakap nila si Eigh.)
Shey: Eigh, I'm sorry... it was all my fault...
Eigh: don't be sorry, Shey... it is not your fault...
(maedyo malabo na ang salita ni Eigh, tumayo ito para sana pumunta sa morgue ngunit nahimatay ito nang makailang hakbang. Pagkagising nito, nasa lounge room sya.)
Eigh: where am I? Where's Ryuu? tell me everything was a dream, right?
(lalong napaiyak ang mga kaibigan nya at niyakap si Eigh, nagpupuniglas si Eigh habang umiiyak ay pilit pa rin syang niyayakap ng mg kaibigan nya, nang mapakalma na nila si Eigh, pinainom sya kaagad ng tubig at may iniabot si Shey na ilang pirasong papel.)
Eigh: what is this?
Shey: he asked me to give him a few papers and a pen, so I gave him... and I watched him while he was trying so hard writing that letter for you, Eigh.
(naluha muli si Eigh, at naglakad sya papunta sa may chapel, susundan sana sya nila Ghie at Cha nang pigilan sila ni Arwin at Jop. Pagdating ni Eigh sa may chapel, binuklat nya ang papel, magulo ang sulat ni Ryuu may ilang parte na napunit dahil sa pagsulat nito ng madiin, binasa ito ni Eigh.)
R: My only dearest Eigh,
By the time you'll be reading this, i know i'm gone, and I'm sorry that I sent you home, I just don't want you to see how hard it is for me to leave this world... to leave you, my love. I know you're crying now, through the years we've been together there was never a doubt, you're a weak girl behind that strong physique, I know about it Eigh... cry all the tears you want, but don't cry forever... be happy for me, that before I left this world, I was married to the best girl I could have, it was no one but you Eigh... my handwriting would suck more than they used to be before, but I wrote this with all heart and love, Eigh... and I know that's what you want, something made from the heart... Eigh I love you so much, and I know you feel the same way too... but I'm gone and you, you are still alive, Eigh... my darling you are young, and I'll be happy if I would see you happier with six children... I know I can't make it, I know I failed you... oops! I know what you'll say, "you never failed me Ryuu." haha, right?
Time will come and I will be forever gone in the memories of those whom I know, but I know with you... I'll stay forever, but Eigh I want you to be happy, move on and forget about me... But I don't want you to forget all those happy times we've shared together, walking on the beach... playing on the Hacienda's hidden river... remember when I first I saw it? You were so happy that you said you can match up with TOP's secret lake... when that time comes, Eigh, I want you tell the story of a man who loved someone so much that he almost ate the whole world because of his happiness... share this to your kids... to your husband... to the whole world...
I'd like to write a letter for all of you, but I can't so please tell them how much I want to thank them... I wish thet Ghie finds what she was looking for all time, I wish she could find it inside Seung Ri. I wish TOP tell the truth to Cha, now. I wish my friend Minho would be a lot better than Kim for Shey... I wish Jop would stop hanging out with sluts and find someone... I wish Arwin move on and try love again.
Most of all I wish you all the happines, what matters most is that we loved at all, right? We couldn't be together that long, though I know we could be... But I wish you all the world's happiness and sincerity, Eigh... Share your love, share mine... I love you so much that it hurts leaving this cruel world... I never thought I'd find someone like you here.
Once you feel so sad and all alone, I'll be there to hug you Eigh... I hope you won't get scared... I'll be there for your warmth...
thank you for loving me Eigh... I love you, and death can never do something about it.
I want a cremation, then head back to Tokyo and bring my ashes to the flower garden ,where both of us started.
I love you forever and ever and ever and everafter and ulitmately forever.
I don't want to see you cry again, Eigh.
This is God's will, I bet you know that when God pulled out something from your hand, it doesn't mean that he's emptying it, it only means he's preparing it for something better.
I love you, is all I want to say now.
Eigh, my words are cold and flat, as the song goes, but you know how much I do love you, right? right?
lots of Love,
Ryuu.
(patuloy ang pagiyak ni Eigh nang mtapos nya ang pagbasa dito, hirap na hirap si Ryuu s apagsusulat ngunit nakayanan nyang magsulat ng ganoon para kay Eigh.)
