Keep Holding On(English Transcript)

Zoe: (narrating) It was a dark, stormy afternoon. I was supposed to meet up with my friends in the hospital to see Raphael. Once I arrived, I've met them in front of the ICU entrance because I know Raphael is there. Still asleep in a coma. I really hope he's okay. Like his condition is improving and that there are no complications. Right now, me and my friends are following Sheryl to his room.

The younger kids are following Sheryl to Raphael's room.

Shion: This is the ICU? It looks scary.

Zoe: This is the ICU, I've been here before. To see Raphael with the boys.

Jamie: Wow.

Thaiyo: So, were you aware that the head teacher was going to control nearly everyone?

Tanya: Yes, and we were aware of that. Right before line up time. It was last year, Shion, Jamie and I were playing when we saw her, the head teacher. She was telling everyone on the mic that if they saw anyone who is not 100% Thai, not buddhist and not girls, they must get away from them.

*Flashback*

''Head Teacher: Students of Sacred Heart Convent School, if you see anyone who is not 100% Thai, not buddhist or any boy in class, get away from them. They want to manipulate you into disrespecting the teacher.''

Jamie: Oh no, everyone is getting away from us.

Shion: What are we going to do?

''Tanya: I just remembered that Zoe is playing with the boys, we need to tell her. She, along with most boys in her class are not 100% Thai. Also her friends are boys.''

Shion: Then let's tell them.

Shion, Jamie and Tanya went up to the older kids.

Jamie: Guys, you have to watch out, the head teacher wanted everyone to get away from you.

Zoe: What?

Raphael: Isn't that racist?

''Tanya: It is, but I need you to watch out. Do not trust any girl who is what the head teacher said. Maybe the head teacher would take control of them.''

''Ankit: Take control? Isn't that a conspiracy theory?''

''Jamie: You need to trust us. We just wanted to warn you about what will happen if the girls get us.''

''Zoe: Jamie's right. We need to trust them, for now. Just take their word, do not trust girls.''

Aidan: Sorry?

''Raphael: What Zoe's saying is right. But the only girls we can trust are those who are not 100% Thai and those who are not buddhist.''

*End of flashback*

Thaiyo: Wow, is there any chance that the head teacher is xenophobic?

Zoe: I am not sure about this conspiracy theory, but it can be possible.

Aidan: Why would the head teacher be xenophobic against us? What have we even done? Foreigners are just nice people, even teenagers wanted to look foreign.

Zoe: Like going to Korea and get double eyelids? Even if you already have one?

Tanya: Zoe has natural double eyelids and didn't get them via plastic surgery. It's genetics.

Zoe: Because I'm Eurasian.

Sheryl: We're here.

The kids finally arrived at Raphael's room in the children's ICU.

Tanya: This is his room? What's with the tubes and wires?

Sheryl: They help him keep him alive. The tube in his mouth, the ventilator, helps him breathe because his breathing is severely shallow and jagged. The multiple IVs helps him remain hydrated because he had been dehydrated ever since we rushed him here. And yes, dehydration is one of the symptoms of type 1 diabetes if left untreated. And the wires are used to help doctors monitor his vital signs.

Shion: Because he's obviously dying.

Sheryl: Unfortunately yes. He had been misdiagnosed with something else instead of being diagnosed with type 1 diabetes immedietly.

Charlie: Poor dude.

Sheryl: Well, I will give him his crystal. You guys stay here.

Sheryl entered the hospital room and gave his brother the crystal.

Sheryl: Get well soon, Raphael. Just keep holding on and survive this. Just keep fighting like you always did while playing basketball.
