UMUULAN. At kasabay ng malakas na pagbuhos niyon ay ang unti-unting pagsara ng mga mata ni Raea. Masakit na masakit ang kanyang katawan. Pakiramdam niya ay parang nagkakalasan ang iba't ibang parte niyon. Hinang-hina siya. At alam niya, ilang segundo na lang at tuluyan na siyang magagapi ng matinding antok na nararamdaman niya. She is ready for it. Siya ang may gawa kung bakit siya nasa gan'ong sitwasyon ngayon.

If only...

She can hear a faint sound of ambulance' siren. May naririnig din siyang mga pag-uusap. Tila nagkakagulo habang papalapit sa kanya. Pilit niyang idinilat ang papikit na mga mata. In her blurred vision, she saw Apollo slowly coming towards her. Combined shock and confusion were written all over his face.

Raea can't help it but a faint smile formed from her lips.

Maybe, this is the end...she knows how much Apollo hates her right now. And she regretted every single decision she made. If only her heart wasn't clouded by anger and greediness...

"Too late for your regret, Raea..."

Napalunok siya. Hindi niya alam kung ang kanyang konsensya ba ang nagsasalita o ano. But the voice she heard was a man's voice.

Maybe, she's hallucinating...Gan'on 'ata kapag alam mong malapit ka nang mawala sa mundo. You hallucinate and all of the memories you have with the people you love come to you like a hurricane. Mabilis...halo-halo na halos hindi mo na maintindihan.

Ah...I am really dying... She whispered.

"Oh, not yet. My friend, Grim Reaper, won't take you today. You still need to face the consequence of the action you just made earlier before you will be ushered to the afterlife."

Bahagyang napailing si Raea. She thinks the words she's hearing is not coming from her hallucinations. It is full of sound and conviction.

Kahit hirap ay pilit niya muling idinilat ang kanyang mga mata. A man appeared from her sight. He was standing tall beside her while looking intensely at her.

The man looks ethereal. Like he's too handsome to be a human being.

The man has a jet black colored hair that is almost the same with his eyes, a pointed nose, a luscious rosy lips and a white skin that almost make him look shining. But what she noticed most is his left earring. It is shining so much that it almost hurt her eyes. It was a long silver earring that almost reached his shoulder. And the design is a cross with studs on each corner.

"S-sino k-ka...?" Raea doesn't know if the words she said really came out from her lips. She's too weak to say something that she felt that she just uttered those words in her mind.

The man squatted beside her. "You know me...it was you who called me..."

Hindi na kaya ni Raea. As much as she wants to question the man, she can't hold it anymore. Tuluyan na niyang ipinikit ang kanyang mga mata.

"I'll see you again, Raea. I will leave this to you because our meeting doesn't end here..."

I'm sorry...the words she can only say after she passed out.
