Pilit Kung Pilit

Having an extremely selfless partner drives you to question your blatant selfishness. Alipin sanguiguilid, I genuinely believe that he is one of the most dedicated doctors of his hospital. He passes up the chance to eat lunch just to tend to patients. Having known this, on certain occasions, I send him food, which I found out, he shares with his co-residents and the staff nurses that work with him. Mind you, I don't send him much, but he makes it a point to share the little I send him, so much so that I've made sure I send more than enough so that he gets to eat well even though he tends to share. He fits me into his schedule as best as he can, sometimes he asks me about my day, and I give him a rundown of the trivial bits of my daily engagements and routines. He listens to be babble as he walks home to his dorm, after being trapped in the hospital for more than 36 hours of work. Then he tells me that he's only had 2 hours of sleep and one decent meal during the tour of his duty.
