The susunod evening, after they returned tahanan from their jobs, Lydia and John listened to Pattie's new album. Afterwards, Lydia talked with Pattie. Pattie asked, "Have you listened to my new album yet?" Lydia said, "Yes, we just finished listening to it." Pattie asked, "How did you like it?" Lydia said, "It was really good. I think Foxy enjoyed it, too." Pattie said, "I'm glad to hear it." Just then, Lydia's cellphone rang. It was her father. She said, "I'll let you talk to John a minute. My father is calling." She went into her bedroom to talk privately. Her father explained, "Your grandmother is in the hospital, and it's not looking good. She has pneumonia in both lungs." Lydia said, "Oh, no. This is the beginning of the end, isn't it?" He said, "Yep, I'm afraid so." She said, "Elderly people usually don't survive pneumonia." He said, "They don't." She said, "Well, I'm going to go. Keep me posted." He said, "Okay." She returned to the living room, and John was still talking to Pattie. John noticed Lydia looking sad. He asked, "Is everything all right?" She said, "No." Pattie asked, "What's wrong?" Lydia said, "My paternal grandmother is in the hospital. She has pneumonia in both lungs." Pattie said, "Oh, no. I'm sorry to hear that." Lydia said, "I don't think it'll be much longer." She later told the rest of her mga kaibigan about it. Rebecca asked, "Is there anything I can do?" Lydia said, "Just keep talking to me, and I'll be just fine." Marie said, "Don't worry, Lydia. We're here for you." Catherine said, "Plan on us coming to see you." Gavin said, "Yes, please do." Lydia said, "You all don't have to do that." Gavin said, "We're your friends. It's our duty to be there for you." She said, "You're all so kind. I appreciate it." That night, Lydia snuggled with her beloved puppy, Foxy, and cried herself to sleep.

Kayla requested me to write this, so here I go. I'm really sorry for what you're going through right now. I know what it's like to be an outcast, as I am one myself. It's painful and hard, but at the same time, it enables you to empathize with other outcasts.
I just would like to remind you that no matter what people say or think about you or your preferences, those are the very things that make you special. They are just clearly missing out on what matters most, and that's unconditional love. Don't ever change, Kayla. It would be heartbreaking if you did. Always remember that I and your other mga kaibigan here pag-ibig you for who you are.
And remember that you are never, ever alone. We're here for you and you have all our support, especially during difficult times.
Peace and love,
~Kelly 🌟🌟🌟

I know you think
You're someone I forgot.
But I haven't forgotten.
I could never forget you.
I'll never forget your smile.
I never saw you without it.
I still miss you every day.
I'm sorry I took you for granted.
I hope you can forgive me.
If I could do it all again,
I wouldn't have taken you for granted.
I wouldn't have overlooked you.
I would've been a better friend.
I blamed your parents for their negligence,
But blaming them won't bring you back.
The reason I hate mga baril is your demise.
The reason I never take mga kaibigan for granted,
That's also the loss of you.
