I AM A H.E.R.O.

My name is Jake Gibs, a half American half Asian. I'm 185 cm tall, my hair is black along with black eyes and fair white skin. My face is just average that can be seen anywhere.

For the rest of my life since birth, I've always stayed in the hospital. Never have I taken a step outside the hospital for my body is so fragile. A simple flu can become fatal to me.

Thanks for my parents fortune, I have reach this age with my disease. My father owns an Electronic company while my mom is a CEO in a Pharmaceutical company. My parents visits me one a week to check my condition. Though it make you think that they are cold but my parents loved me so much. There was a time when I got sick with fever and the hospital contacted my parents, my dad cancelled all his appointments including the biggest deal he would have get just to get to the hospital. While mom rushes to the hospital even though she haven't gotten some rest after finishing the plan for expansion in the business. I've always love and thankful to them. Though I sometimes blame myself for having such weak body and let my parents worry and suffer.

Life in the hospital is so boring and so I asked my parents to buy stuffs like tv, laptop and etc.... I first watched an Anime and got hooked up to it. Thanks to Anime, Manga and Light novel my time in this prison called hospital isn't boring. My yearning for the outside world diminished as Anime keeping company everyday. I'm satisfied with this daily life.

As the months passes, my body slowly weakens to the point that I can no longer walk. Even though I can't walk anymore I didn't mind as long as I can watch anime its already enough. Little by little my senses slowly weakening that my eyes needs glasses for me to see. My ears can't clearly hear, my sense of touch becomes numb and taste becomes bland. Realizing that I'm almost done, I asked my parents to make a foundation to help orphans. Thinking to myself 'What's the point of being son of a rich family when you can't even enjoy it. Its better to help someone at the very least my existence wasn't pointless.'

My parent agreed to my request as they thought that it might be my last request. As the foundation starts to take shape, my body continued to deteriorates. As for now, all I can do is lie down on the bed while waiting for my end. Looking in the ceiling, all I can do is think. Thinking about my life, being held in the hospital for the rest of my life and the regrets. I promised myself, if ever I would be reborn, I'll definitely stay healthy and do the things I wouldn't regret. Waiting for the doctor for my daily checkup, my eyelids felt heavier and I felt so sleepy. Before my eyes closed, I saw a human shaped light extending its hands towards me. And suddenly everything becomes dark.
