On Monday, like i said, My KJF will have his eye surgery and he's nervous 'coz of it so i need to be awake that time, give him my support and make him strong, be relax somehow, in short, palalakasin ko ang loob niya at maghihintay at magbabantay sa kanya habang inooperahan siya tulad ng dati, 'coz he's afraid in that kind of thing, lol, he's like a baby.
