CHAPTER 28: DON’T LEAVE ME
CALLIX
I went down to the kitchen when I saw mom and dad having breakfast so I came over and sat in front of them
“ so good morning” dad greet.
“ good morning to dad, by the way, were be leaving later “ I take the bread to eat.
“ Why did you let us join you?” mom complain.
“ mom I need to do this because if I am here you and dad can make my brother” I smiled foolishly while mom blushed.
“ that’s right son now that you still don’t have a wife, I and your mom will make a brother of yours” dad laughs while mom’s race becomes redder.
“ Okay, I’m leaving so that you both can start already. I’m just going to get my things” I smiled at them but suddenly I got dizzy.
SHIT!
I closed my eyes and took a deep breathe then I opened my eyes but my vision is blurred, I could not see the stairs to my room than someone holding my hand and helping me to step.
“ sir” gab voice. We slowly entered the room and he sat me down and gradually my vision is clear.
“ gab” traces of concern to his face.
“ Sir, do you need something?” I just looked at him and didn’t say a word.
“ get the car ready because we’re leaving” I ordered and he nodded then he left, I get my medicine and drink one then I put it in my bag and walked away.

We just arrived here in Korea and we were blinded by the beauty of the place. We went straight to the hotel so that we can rest.
“ callix” lian called.
“ lian is there any problem? “ she looked annoyed.
“ Why are they here?” she pouts like a child.
“ haha don’t worry Trisha won’t slap you anymore” I teased her but she stared at me and left, I just shook my head.
We just came back from sightseeing but lian invited us to the videoke bar so we agree even though we’re tired.
“ callix you’re too slow, hurry up” lian complained.
“ yeah here it is, I’m just going to close my door” after I closed my door he pulled me away.
We found gab and Trisha, Alex sitting in the lobby, and looks like they talking seriously.
“let’s go guys,” lian said and they looked at us so they stood up.
“ ah gab do you know how to sing?” we are in the car.
“ yeah, my voice is like brad pit” lian frowned while Trisha laughed.
“ callix you rather stop me or else I’m going to kick this guy back to the Philippines” I’m just smiling while gab laughing at what lian said.
We are in a room with a full set of a videoke bar and the is spacious so even whoever wants to dance, can but why is their alcohol.
“ Okay guys thank you for coming with me CHEERS!” we were immediately given a shot of tequila. Does this woman have a problem?
“ one more! Thank calyx for your vacation! CHEERS!” we cheered and we drink again.
“ last! Don’t leave us!” I frowned and look at her, she quickly drinks a shot of tequila then we followed. What’s going on this girl.
“ Okay! Let’s sing it! Callix you first” she handed me the mic and they were looking at me so I did have a choice. I took the songbook.
“ latest song please!” lian said.
LOVE IS GONE by Dylan Matthew
Don't go tonight
Stay here one more time
Remind me what it's like, oh
And let's fall in love one more time
I need you now by my side
It tears me up when you turn me down
I'm begging please, just stick around
I'm sorry, don't leave me, I want you here with me
I know that your love is gone
I can't breathe, I'm so weak, I know this isn't easy
Don't tell me that your love is gone
That your love is gone
I'm sorry, don't leave me, I want you here with me
I know that your love is gone
I can't breathe, I'm so weak, I know this isn't easy
Don't tell me that your love is gone
That your love is gone
I love singing but I haven’t been given a chance to sing and I only sing in the bathroom, I closed my eyes when I’m singing then I’m done singing I open my eyes but lian was crying.
“ what’s wrong?” I looked at them and saw the sadness on their faces.
“ I hate you, why is your voice so beautiful and why did you sing that? It’s annoying” she complained while wiping the tears on her cheek.
“ you requested the latest song I just gave you what you want,” I said with a smile, the song is sad but I don’t expect lian to cry.
“ tsk! Don’t leave me! Don’t leave me! Don’t leave us!” she said angrily and she gulps again a shot of tequila. I think she’s drunk.
“ gab played it again, I’m going to sing that song again” I was just shaken my head to what she is doing.
“ don’t go tonight---- stay here one more---- night” she’s just starting to sing but she’s crying, why is it that I feel I want to cry too.
“ I’m—sorry don’t leave---- I want you here with me” she still crying.
“ I can’t breathe---- I’m so weak” she keeps wiping her tears on her cheeks. I felt sorry for her so I came to her and hugged her but she howled even more along with the song that seemed to be our background song.
“ don’t leave me,” she hoarse said
Why do I seem to feel sad as I hug lian especially when she hugs me like I’m dying? I stop thinking and look at lian does she know my situation? But the doctor and I only know my illness.
