Brayan is dead.

I could not believe it. Maybe because i looked up to people I know as eternal beings. He died watching a movie. Or he died sleeping while inside the movie house.

They found his breathless body at Oriente (Colon) last Sunday night (09.16.07). He must have died the previous night. I wonder if what was he thinking when he went inside the movie house. Did her ever thought that what if he could no longer get out alive?

His life could probably be spared if he happened to meet a friend outside. Someone could have awaken him in the middle of the night when he struggled for breath. But I wonder if it is OBVIOUS that one is dying in his sleep.

It has been 3 years since the last time I saw him when he checked for my sister and I did not expect that I would hear such news of him. We were all strucked most especially Mama.

Brayan was my sister’s ex-boyfriend. I know him way back in high school. For years, he had been our frequent visitor at home and had treated him as a real brother.

I have read the news at SUPERBALITA today (second page, top news). And I remembered during those times when he would drive us to the church. I remembered the birthday cards he gave me, the novels that he gave us, his smile, his laughter.

Wherever he is right now… I pray for his soul’s eternal rest.

P.S. I would always remember you Kuya Bray!
