《Remembering You》accident

I remembered the day it all happened like it had occurred just seconds ago. Every time I closed my eyes, I would remember the uneasy clench my stomach gave as I wake to my phone ringing sinfully loud in the early morning.
It was that sickening feeling that crept up your spine when you just knew something was wrong.
Mrs. Lee's voice rang through my ears, frantic and hurried, tears choking her as she tried to voice the most painful ones I'd ever heard.
"Chanwoo's been in an accident-" she started, a sob wracking through her as she sniffled silently, "he's-he's out cold." Her voice shook.
I didn't know what to say or how to react. Nobody ever thinks anything bad will happen before it does. He'd been out drinking with colleagues earlier that night. His deep, honey-like voice still echoed in my head and thrummed through my veins.
"C'mon, Ki," he'd said, "why don't you come with me? None of the guys will mind if I bring you along."
He'd tried to get me to go out with me him and some of his buddies from work. The few of his friends from work that I'd met we're perfectly nice, but I was never one to intrude. Also, pubs and drinking aren't really my thing.
The thing is, is that Lee Chanwoo is responsible. He knows his limit, and he knows when and where it's okay to cross it. I knew from the beginning that the accident wasn't due to him being intoxicated, but due to someone else.
"Where are you?" My voice was raspy with sleep, words caught thick in my throat. Anxiety bit at the skin no longer covered by my warm blankets as I sprang up from bed once I'd realized that what was happening was not a dream, not just a horrible nightmare, but reality.

If only it had been a dream. I wouldn't be here for the second week, the fourteenth day in a row, staring at his body from this uncomfortable chair next to the hospital bed.
If only he was awake and showing that gleaming, brighter than a million stars smile that he was known for.
If only his mind were free instead of trapped in this seemingly inescapable wrath of sleep.

Noli Me Tank in a Mall
Noli Me Tangere and El Filibusterismo are important cultural works that ignited the Philippine Revolution against Spain. They are novels that exposed to the populace the abuses and the injustices of their Spanish colonial rulers, the hypocrisy of their priests, and inherent cruelty of their class structure over the powerless masses. Unfortunately, they rose up in the middle of the Spanish-American War, one which saw Spain lose most of their overseas colonies and decisively end as a World Power. The war ended in the 1898 Treaty of Paris, in which Spain also sold the Philippines to the USA for the sum of twenty million dollars. The revolutionary government was then crushed by the overwhelming military might of the United States and the Philippines turned into a territory. While the Philippines stands as the USA's greatest successes in nation-building, their early occupation left almost one-fifth of the population dead from combat and disease. Jose Rizal was executed by the Spanish long before knowing what might happen to his country. The world presented within The Noli and the El Fili is therefore stuck frozen in time, forever caught in that moment before a Revolution. Now let's see what happens to this nation if we give it the Light Novel treatment and jam the entirety of the Internet into their protagonist's skull and watch him try to fix things with his unfortunate tendency to sound like a supervillain. Updates Mondays and Fridays. Note: The Noli and El Fili have been public domain since 1946. This is completely fair game.

"Приемни родители. Кое изоставено дете не би искало това? Аз го исках, преди мечтата ми да се сбъдне.Когато ме завлякоха в къща с трима мъже и две жени, крехкото щастие, което бях успяла да запазя, се разруши. Нови братя и сестри, нови родители, нови приятели, нов живот. Преди давах всичко, за да имам семейство, сега давам това всичко, за да се върна в сиропиталището и никога да не видя тези хора отново.Хубавият сън, когато ме осиновиха, се оказа кошмар, който искам да забравя."-169 стр.
