“May mga bagay ka bang takot kang mawala sa’yo?”

“‘Yung takot akong mawala [ay] ‘yung mama ko kasi everytime na mayroong sulatin na ‘Sino ‘yung superhero ng buhay mo?” sasabihin ko talaga ‘yung mama ko kasi hindi talaga ako makaka-survive nang wala siya. […] Kulang ‘yung day ko ‘pag hindi siya nagtetext ng ‘Anak, kumain ka na ba?'”

“Ano naman ‘yung mga bagay na natuwa kang wala na sa’yo?”

“‘Yung attitude ko na nagde-depend ako masyado sa friends ko. Kasi ‘pag high school sinasabi nila na ‘yun daw ‘yung pinakamasaya, pero hindi talaga ako naniniwala kasi ni isang naging kaibigan ko noong highschool, wala na akong balita sa kanila.”

“Do you think those things that are not with you anymore made your life easier?”

“Oo, kasi it made me a better person; it made me realize na you should be the bigger person in all aspects.”

– Jam, 19, AB Political Science
