Everday without fail, Joanna would peel an apple.
As if waiting for Jacky to wake up from his long lazy slumber and snatch that almost fully peeled apple from her like how he always do.
But everyday,the apple was left untouched...
She would always peel the apple slowly,hoping that Jacky could at least do something about 'it'.
But everyday,the apple was left untouched...
And so the apple stays there...and as night came.it turns brown;awful and rejected.Just like how Joanna must have felt.Often she cried herself to sleep..often she felt so near to Jacky,but yet so far...
But she didn't give up.Hope was still in the midst and being renewed each time Joanna peeled another apple the next day.
But again...everyday,the apple was left untouched..
Two painful weeks past like that.
It was time for Joanna to get discharged.Of cause she was reluctant to go.She even thought of reasons to stay longer.
"Oh,i think i'm in pain...can i stay for further check-up"
"Oh,my head hurts...i needa stay a few more days.."
Mum knew what she was up to and insisted she get discharged.
Well.No choice.
A few moments later,"Landy" the ever beautiful nurse came in.
"Getting discharged ya?! Take good care k?!"she giggled.
Joanna smiled and gave a restless nod.
And so there in the ward,lay 2 persons...
Him refusing to wake up from his deep long sleep.
Her refusing to give up on Him.
Two persons.
One miracle.
Will it happen?
i dare not look into that small blue eyes of his...i knew that if i did.,i'll cry.
I'll cry.I don't know why.
But i'll just cry.
"Look Joanna,i have to go now.I won't be coming back."
His voice was deep and clam.
**What the??!!What was he talking about??!!**
Then my head got light,so light that the room was swirling left and right.
In front of me,images of Jacky started to become blury.
He was vanishing.Like how those Hong Kong chinese immortal-mortal love story always end.A great cloud of mist began forming up.
"Joanna...are you alright??Joanna??"His voice became "echo-ish".
the room got darker and darker...
I was pretty sure he was vanishing.If it wasn't him vanishing,then it must be me..
By this time,i was already being swept into a whirlpool of confusion.My head was spinning like crazy.I mumbled something but couldn't remembered what.I just hoped i didn't cruse Jacky.If i did,i'ld have killed myself.
"Joanna..are you alright??Joanna??"
I opened up my eyes and was greeted by a nurse.Next to me was Jacky's bed.
"Joanna?Gald that you're awake!You've been on bed for three days!"The nurse said softly in her sweet voice.
**why are all the nurses so sweet and beautiful.**
That bright round eyes...that sweet rosy cheek,that healing smile that would melt even a girl's heart.
For a moment....
i thought she was Landy...
**OH SHIT I'M GOING MAD....OH SHIT.....**
"Landy" wrote something down on the clipboard and off she went.A while later,Jacky's mum came..It was only then that i came to know that Jacky never woke up..but it seemed so real..i could almost feel and touched him breathing...
Guess i was really going mad..
"U poor girl....if Jacky knew what u were going through...he would have felt bad.."
The name "Jacky" pierced into my heart.
Her mum then told mi i fainted in the ward three days ago.
**Hmm...well now with me in the hospital too... at least i could save my bus fare!!**

"Hello.Where's my peeled apple?"
The images had just been a dream,but voices were reality.
Or at least i thought so.
"H-E-L-L-O,where's my sweet sweet peeled apple??"
Again that familiar voice came up,i was smiling this time.
**It's gotta be him.....it's gotta be him!!!**
I don't know how it happened,but the bus slowly took form of the hospital ward.
**I really hope it's not a dream!!!**
I opened up my eyes softly.
There he was,sitted upright on that crumpled white bedsheet.
He looked pale.But as always he was beaming with that sun-shine energy litted on his cheeky face.
There was an awful silence.It lasted for the next five mintues.Then ten,then fifteen.I didn't know what to say,i have a lot to say.But i was lost for words.It's like i had a fur ball in my throat.
Trying to break the silence,I whipped out a knife from the drawer and took an apple from the basket that her mother bought.
Her mum wasn't going through the ordeal that well either.Who would understand and feel the pain of losing a child.As if losing a loving husband wasn't enuff,and now God wanted to take away her only son now.It must have been hard on her.The last time i saw her was yesterday,the day she bought in the basket of fruits.Her face was white and restless.She looked at least ten years older.In her tiny eyes, there was emptiness.A terrifying emptiness.Not the horrifying terrifying kind,but more like the lonely and cold terrifying kind.
Too much worries on mind...
I peeled the apple like how i always do it and placed it on the table.
"There u go."
**Gosh,first few words in fifteen mintues and all u could say is "there u go"?!?! well done Joanna!!!well done!!!**
Jacky looked up,smiled and happily chewed on the peeled apple.He looked so happy.
I just love to see the way he eats the apple.....In fact,i just love to see whatever he has got to do..i love the way he walks..i love the way he talks...i love the way he tries to find an excuse to sneak out of class to grab a bite...i juz love him!!
As i was indulging in my fantasies in my lalaland...Jacky dropped that lifted cheek and came to a strict,stern face.It was scary.The only time he did that was when we were in West Coast Park and he asked mi to believe him..something was wrong..really wrong..
**oh shit...what now...**
"There's something i have to tell u Joanna..."First few words from Jacky finally..
The words drifted into my ears..then my heart...then my stomach...i was feeling weird...
