ALMIRA'S POV:
I went to the beach with my nurse. I sat at the sand and watch the sea. But Tita Irene called my nurse.
Nurse: Ma'am Almira, Can I excuse Po? Ms Irene is calling me Po kasi
Almira: Sure
Nurse: Ma'am please stay here Po
Almira: ok
A minute after the nurse left, my eyes went black again but this time, it was not only for a minute. I tried to find my nurse or anyone. But I can't recognize anyone or anything. I was just shocked when suddenly a big thing hit me at the back. It was so strong that I fell to the ground. My head banged on the floor and I fell asleep.
