Javier stared at her for a few more moments as she stared at the city lights.
She sighed tiredly. "Look at all those lights. Are there that many people in Manila? Do you know what the population is? It's over 2 million. How many men and women?" She asked.
"I don't know…" Javier whispered. She kept her gaze on the city lights.
"Those lights, those men and women, there will be my future husband and your future wife, right?"
The more she loved it, the more she feared that she might not be able to get up again. That she might be even weaker and let it take over her whole world. That if she allowed herself to love him more, she would not be able to get up once she found out how he really felt about her. So, while it's still early… she wants to end it.
