Bonnies Time (Life and Death)


                    

It hurt I could tell. A story of a couple Bonnie and Daniel who just have been 5 years married will no longer be together ‘till they get white hairs.

After they had fought for their love story were their parents are against to it because of what they called “langit and lupa” the woman Bonnie is a daughter of a lawyer and a ranch owner. While the man  Daniel is a typical son of a peasants. But the couple proved that the status of living is not the barrier after all.

Bonnie 28 years old, had said she was not afraid of death, but she was afraid of  dying. She had a breast cancer. She was afraid it was going to be hurt. She never had fear of anything, especially not physical pain until she’d endured months of surgeries, radiation theraphy, and chemotherapy. The doctor said it was severe and after 6 months she could be dead, upon hearing  this Daniel felt the world tumble over him. How could he live without bonnie? That’s the question he couldn’t answer.  It’s painful that after everything they’ve been through it will going to end up like this.
Daniel sat by Bonnie’s bed that night . they shared old memories little and memorable things that had happened years ago. As in many long challenges there were hurts between them that they manage to live with. “do you forgive me for everything”? He asked.  “none of it matters now” she said. They exchanged words of love. The last hours there were together are some of the most intimate and precious  of their marriage.
