"Don't worry, we will keep in touch always." Ruthie embraced her and pat her in the back.
Juan also feels sad, and don't want that Jacky will go now.
"Don't worry, we will just don't know it is already time that we get married. You will be with us always." Juan said.
Jacky silent at first.
"We will finish this. "Kochira wo yarimasho"(Let's do this) Jacky said.

"Juan, today is your interview, I'll pray for you that God will guide and give you wisdom," Jacky said.
"Thanks, I will also pray that you will pass your first cadaver dissection and memorize your lessons. I trust you, you are our valedictorian remember."Juan said.
"I'm even pressured by what you said, hehe" Jacky smiling.
"Hehe you are a strong woman, just don't skip eating at the right time, you may collapse," Juan said.
"Why you remind me again of that embarrassing moment?" Jacky frowned.
"Sorry, Why be embarrassed by it, don't you know that I really tried to find out who was that girl? Juan said.
"Why?" Jacky asked.
"Well because she has the most beautiful eyes," Juan said.
Jacky blushed and smiled.
"Really?" Jacky asked.
"Yes, I can't sleep thinking about those eyes. I just wonder why I never think it was you." Juan said.
They arrived, They get the baggage and went to she checked in. Then the flight was announced to board the plane. Juan embraced her and kiss her in the forehead. She went to board the plane looked back and waved. Juan waved back and she's gone.
Juan went to the car and went directly to the University of the Philippines, College of Law.
He presented some documents and was made to wait in a room. Then a lady went out of the interview room crying. The other candidates were also nervous.
"What kind of panel interview is this? It makes me nervous" Juan said.
The phone rang.
"Hello Jacky, how's your flight?" Juan asked.
"It's fine, have you finished the interview? Jacky asked.
"Not yet, a lady came out crying, I wonder what kind of panel interview is this?" Juan said.
"We have also such kind of pressured interview and simulation of surgery and being asked with situations and scenarios to test how well we know every case and how to diagnose and treat it," Jacky said.
"I will pray now for you, don't be scared." Jacky.
"Juan Tira? It's now your turn for interview" A lady asked.
Juan went inside the room, closed the door, and tried to sit in the center chair, but before he can sit, a law professor shouted, "Who told you to sit?"
Juan embarrassed tried to stand. Then another asked question "why you an engineer who wants to be a lawyer?"
"Because I want to know the law and how to avoid making what is not legal. Juan answered.
"Come, get this books" Another commanded Juan.
Juan carried about 15 big books, he almost can't carry it. He can't walk without the books falling. He moved slowly an inch and one fell to his feet, he wants to shout in pain, but he can't. He continues slowly like a turtle with heavy house his carrying. His short movements until he can reach the other table.
"That is the volume of books you will read daily, can you do it? Juan was asked.
His shirt was wet with sweat and his face is pouring that the saltiness of the sweat is making him cry of the pain in his eyes.
"If you all have done it, why can't I? If someone can do it, then another may be able to do it also." Juan answered.
"What other talents can you do? Can you sing?" Another man asked.
"Yes I can, I can also play the guitar," Juan said.
"Sing us a song." Another professor said.
"But we have no guitar?" Juan said
"Sing without guitar, if you can't then fail!" a professor said.
At first, his voice is shaky then it gives momentum as he remembers Jacky singing this song they both love.
"Fly me to the moon
Let me play among the stars
Let me see what spring is like
On a, Jupiter and Mars
In other words, hold my hand
In other words, baby, kiss me
Fill my heart with song
And let me sing for ever more
You are all I long for
All I worship and adore
In other words, please be true
In other words, I love you
Fill my heart with song
Let me sing for ever more
You are all I long for
All I worship and adore
In other words, please be true
In other words, in other words
I love you."
"Do you have a wife or girlfriend?" A lady professor asked.
"Yes I have a fiancee," Juan said.
"Forget about her if you want to survive here. Can you do that?" The lady professor said.
"I can survive it here because she is my inspiration," Juan said.
"Okey, you can get out now."
Juan hurriedly went out.
"Did I pass or failed?" Juan thinking.
The lady outside the room facilitating them said we will call you of the result.
Juan went home, changed clothes, and prepared some food.
Jacky video called.
"Hello, how's the interview? Jacky excited.
"It's funny and scary!"
Juan again gave the story to Jacky and Ruthie who just awake from her nap.
He explained with actions and expressions what happened. They laugh and laugh listening. "I never imagine that a law entrance panel interview is an initiation."
"I wonder if I passed the interview." Juan is a bit worried.
