Clay's POV 

"We need just need to observe any more further-"

"FURTHER?! ARE YOU SURE THAT YOU'RE AN LICENSED DOCTOR?!" I hissed out of frustration. 

"Ma'am I know you're upset but can you please watch your words?" One of the nurses complained. I am no longer in the right frame of my mind! I'm worried about my brother!

It's been days but they can't give any diagnosis about my brothers' condition, I know it's normal to feel this way! 

"I'M SORRY FOR WHAT I'M ACTING BUT CAN YOU PLEASE DO YOUR JOB, AND GIVE THE RIGHT DIAGNOSIS FOR MY BROTHER?! HE'S STILL UNCONSCIOUS AND YOU DON'T HAVE ANY DIAGNOSIS ABOUT HIM?!" I continued. 

I'm aware of every word coming out of my mouth. They are still silent and that's when I decided that I should transfer Maru to a hospital in Manila. The country's capital will always have the best hospitals. 

They didn't get in my way when I started transferring Maru's paper and I'm glad about that because if they even thought of stopping me. I think this hospital management will appear in every social media platform and court just a few moments from now on.

Another day passed when Maru's result came out, I stayed up for over a week now just to guard him. I didn't leave him even once, I don't want him to wake up thinking that I'm not beside him.

I'm now standing in front of the best doctor in this country as well as my brother's hospital bed. He's asleep looking so peaceful but I know that he did not. 

"Clay.." he muttered while looking at the front papers he's holding. 

The doctor in front of me was a very close person, for us think that I'm the person who knows him best that the other people around him. 

"What?! Stop staring at that damn paper Renz! Tell me what Maru's condition is!" I shout because of irritation. He slowly looked in my eyes with those sad thin lines of his. 

"I don't know how this happened to him but.." He stopped and gave me a look that I don't want to understand. Look, I don't need what the meaning is! 

My tears that I'm holding started to flow, I don't have any answer from him but I feel that I know what's going on. My breathing started to get heavy as I caught it, my limbs started to shake as I held both my hands but I want to know what it really is. 

"Please c-continue." I shuddered as I held my chest getting ready for anything he would say. 

"Maru has stage 4 Glioblastoma, the most aggressive brain cancer. " He said as the tears on my eyes are now racing down to my cheeks, I bend down my knees as I fall. 

Renz immediately caught and hugged me as I cried in his chest.  

"H-how? How did he had?!" I moaned while digging on his chest. I want to shout my lungs out! 

He was the kind of guy who loves to party, he was just a happy naugthy normal guy! He was just my fucking innocent little brother! And hell he got that?! 

"T-tell me he can be cured." I looked up at Renz's face while the tears were all over my face, I saw the sadness in his eyes. The slow movement of his head makes my world tear apart. 

"He has a year to l-live." Words that came out from his mouth, I keep moving my head as a sign of disagreement! 

No! He won't leave me! He won't leave his older sister!!! Not me! Not everyone! He' fucking stay with me! He'll live longer and have a happy family with the girl she loves! 

I immediately run to Maru's bed and hug him so tight, I don't want to let go. I want to stay by his side no matter what!

"You won't leave me!" I cried and aggressively hugging him. I don't know what to do, my mind is in black out! 

"Clayyy!!!" Renz shouted as he kept grabbing me from hugging my brother. "He won't leave you so let him go!" He hissed while holding both of my arms but I can't let my brother go. 

He's the only person who believes me when every person in our family disgrace me! 

"N-no! Get the fuck off me!" I swayed him but he was so strong causing me to suddenly let go of him with a block of tears rushing through my face.

I keep crying and crying while Renz never leaves by my side. He didn't bother to get back to his duty and neither I know that I already fell asleeps in his embrace. 

Maru's POV 

It's so bright that I need to cover the light that passes my eyes. I wait for my sight to adjust until I saw a full white view. 

I looked around but I saw the same thing in every turn that I made. It's a pitch white scene that looks like it doesn't end. I was alone in this place, I looked at myself from a drop of water reflection that I found underneath. 

I tilt my head as I noticed that I was wearing a full white outfit, a white long sleeves partnered with white long pajamas. I slowly looked up as I saw nothing but white. 

I walked to explore the place where I am, I don't feel anything in this place. I feel empty from inside, I'm not hungry, I'm not thirsty and I'm not tired from walking all the way to nowhere. 

There was no other person in here, the silence was so loud that I can't even think of such a thing. As I noticed that I've been here for a long time and I still can find the end of this place. I step, as I started walking neither I know that I was running. 

I was running in fear and loneliness, I was running because of nothing. I'm the only person in here but I'm in great fear that makes my whole body chills. I'm not afraid of anything but to think that I'm alone in this place that I don't know makes my whole body and soul tremble. 

Minutes, hours, days, weeks and months past I'm still trapped in this unknown place. I was just sitting from nowhere, I didn't feel any hunger but the fact that I don't know what to do makes me weak. 

As I turned back my eyes widened as I saw a familiar face looking at my direction. She was holding a big round lollipop in her right hand while her left hand was hugging a big butterfly stuffed toy. She was just staring at me as she looked from my head to toe and smiled out of nowhere. 

"Maru~" she whispered, making my heart pound in an unfamiliar beat. 

Who is she?! Why am I feeling this?! 

I slowly walked towards her as I looked at her innocent but goddess-like beautiful face. She's smiling in my direction until I already reach her position. I don't know what I'm feeling. My heart is beating so fast and my tears started to fall as I looked at her. 

"Wake up Maru.." She said with a smile on her face, I was smiling too but she suddenly pushed me back and out of nowhere a small pond pops up behind me. 

Everything was in slow motion as I fell down but I can clearly see how she looks. 

I opened my eyes and the unfamiliar ceiling greets my eyes. I sat up as slowly as I could, until I realized that there was something attached on my arms and also on my chest. I looked around and my eyes widened when I saw everything. 

Sealed plastic curtain is all over my bed, a kind of beeping machine is beside me and a needle is attached to my upper hand. My brows furrowed in curiosity that I have by now. 

"What happened?" I asked myself without knowing what was happening.

I slowly stood up and tried to disattach the cords that were in place of my body when a nurse came up. 

"You're awake.." She whispered and immediately came back to her senses as she called the doctors. 

There were five doctors now in front of me but one guy who caught my attention. I saw shockess in his eyes when he saw me. 

"What is happening?" I asked repeatedly but they were all shocked by seeing me. 

"Y-you've been in a coma for 3 months." A familliar doctor stated and I was dumb founded by this situation. 

"Where is my sister?!" I panicked and almost fell on the bed I'm in.

I know that 3 months isn't that long for me to have 5 doctors in front of me so what the hell is happening?!!!!! Where is Klirro?! What happens from there?! 

"Call my sister!" I shout in front of all of them. 

I want to know where my sister is in the first place, I know she's been worried about me.
