Last night i was on duty when one volunteer, Ruthecks Dioquinio, came on my ward and said "Sir Xander, walay nantir ya gift ed sika (Sir Xander Someone gave you a gift). " I thought it was from my girlfriend but how could it possible, She is in Jordan. So i wondered and asked him "Sino naman?".. and then he said "ito o"..
a santan wrapped in a IVF bottle plastic, with a note saying "I love you From Babe" by Krisha Regino's hand writing.. and it made me teary-eyed, He said "Wala kasing mag bibigay ng regalo sayo ngayon diba?"..I blushed. It was really sweet of my hospital friends.
It made me delighted and made me realize that these are the people who are worth keeping. I remembered the night of the day my girlfriend flew to Jordan, My friends in the hospital went to my house at 3 am just to check if I'm ok.. I really appreciate that Jimmy, Ruthecks, Jhong, Dianne P., Marco and Michelle. I was lying when i said i was "Ok" but actually my heart really wanted to burst to tears. and when i was about to, you guys came. I never thought i was appreciated and loved by people like you. Kung sino pa ang hindi ko ineexpect na magcheck sa akin, sila pa yung pumunta. I was really really surprised!! Then the day after, I haven't seen any of my real-life friends yet, Jimmy, Jason and Ruthecks was again at my house. sabi ko "Buti pa kayo". I was really happy seeing my Hosp. friends cause simple thoughts really made me feel more comfortable. I was really used of being with my girlfriend everytime, and i thought i could make it. I am trying, and thanks to all of you..Sometimes i wonder where are my friends when i needed them, and bargained "i was with them when they needed me", but I understand my friends because i know they are busy with their lives now..so really, guys. maraming salamat!
You know, Valentines maybe for people who are in a relationship. But this Santan, is just a reminder that
valentines is also for people who really cares for others. and I want to say Thank You and happy Valentines to you too.
I maybe celebrating valentines alone here in my room in front of my computer, But i am happy cause any moment i will see my girlfriend using skype. But what really makes me glad, is that I know, that there are people i can turn to in times when the world felt like tumbling.
