* B A C K S T O R Y * ~~ "Nay! Sorry if we only visited today. Elroy and I have been a bit busy. Don't worry, Elroy is going to graduate! We will visit you more often." Infinity's telling a story to her mom while picking up some wild weeds on her grave. It's her usual thing to do when visiting her mother's grave. "I'm fine with my job. Even though the salary is not great, it is enough to pay my bills and buy some of my needs. Also, I'm happy with what I'm doing! My next project is a children's book! I'm thinking of making the children in the orphanage an inspiration for it. They will surely be delighted when they read the book!” Infinity keeps on talking to her mother as if she's alive. Some may find it weird, but Paolo finds this dear. Love doesn't know any boundaries, even after death. He will graduate in 3 months. His name is already included in the graduation list. Next week is their first anniversary. Infinity doesn't want to celebrate. She just wanted a simple date. But Paol
* B A C K S T O R Y * ~~ "IT’S too early for a date! Lunch? Really?” Infinity is teasing her boyfriend. She was not surprised that he asked her for a date. It's their first anniversary! But she didn't think it would be this early, it was lunchtime. They are currently eating lunch in a well-known restaurant around their university. There are quite a few people even at lunch, maybe because the cost of the food here is a little bit expensive for students. "Dinner is not enough for our anniversary date! So better start in lunch." He said while laughing. He is so handsome in his white long-sleeved polo, tucked into his black pants. Defining his well-built body. Her hair is also very well done, actually, it's a little bit too formal for the occasion. She is also wearing a white dress. It was Paolo who gifted her this dress and told her to wear it today for their anniversary. Of course, she also dresses for the occasion! A light makeup she learned to put on from her officemates. Their
*** * B A C K S T O R Y * "SANTOS, Paolo Elroy O. *(1)Magna Cum Laude." The entire Plenary Hall was filled with applause. Paolo held out his diploma and medal in front of the stage, then looked back at his wife's seat. Infinity claps her hands, and her eyes are a little bit watery because of too much emotion. Paolo achieved one of his dreams, and she is so proud of him. He just stared at her while going down the stage, he also gave her a flying kiss which she jokingly caught. Everyone's happy and in congratulatory mode. After the program, she immediately went down to the graduating area, to be welcomed with his arms wide open waiting for her. She immediately ran and hugged him. "I am so proud of you." She whispered in his ear and gently kissed his cheek. They are currently sharing their happiness inside their bubble when someone interrupts them. “*(2)Kuya!” She knew who it was just by the voice. They immediately let go of the hug and looked at the place where the voice came at t

Everything's smooth sailing with their relationship, with their work, and with their family. However, his family and Infinity treat each other casually. They have a 'family' dinner every other week, his father is always too busy to mingle with them, his mom is always in the kitchen supervising, and his sister is always rolling her eyes at her. Except for Elroy and Erwan, his younger brother, and some of the house helpers are the only ones treating her nicely. It's once again another typical weekend for them. Her husband was busy talking to his siblings. She couldn't follow their conversation because if it wasn't about their passion
* B A C K S T O R Y * *** “I know nothing about this, Infinity. Don't worry, I'll talk to Manang or maybe Mom. I'll just take her back to the mansion." Her husband is very apologetic when he comes home and sees the lady in their home. He also stood still when she said that she would be staying with them. Manang Carmen will be their house help, but she has a strong feeling that her mother-in-law sent her to be her eyes. "Elroy, it doesn’t feel right at all." "I hope they asked us about it first," Elroy said irritably.
**** B A C K S T O R Y *~~ Manang Carmen has been in their house for almost a week. And as she expected, their every meeting was awkward. She knew her every move was being observed. Her every move was judged by her. But she didn't budge. Instead, she asked God for guidance so that Manang would open her heart and see that she didn’t mean any harm. She just loves Elroy so much. One day, after leaving work, she found Manang Carmen watering their plants outside the house. They have some plants there. When the lady saw her, she looked at her from head to toe, but her eyes stayed on the plastic bag she was holding. Infinity
* B A C K S T O R Y ****WHEN you are happy, everything will be fast and easy. It has been 2 years since they got married, but for Infinity and Elroy, it feels like just a few months. Her husband was true to everything he promised. Infinity didn't feel lonely anymore. She now has a home to call her own, and someone she looks forward to coming home to every day. Manang Carmen became her second mother too. She loves her more than Elroy now! The three of them are living harmoniously in their humble house. Everything was perfect, and they were contented with their lives, not until her in-laws, most specifically her mother-in-law, brought up the topic of pregnancy during one of their family gatherings.
* B A C K S T O R Y *~~ Throughout the dinner, everything's animated for Infinity. Whenever Elroy felt that she was spacing out, he squeezed her hands to get her attention. She would just smile at him. She was quiet during the whole trip back to their house. While driving, Elroy kept asking her if she was okay, and would just reply the same thing. Manang Carmen greeted them in front of their house. Infinity just greeted her and went to their room to wash up and prepare herself for bed. "What happened?" Manang Carmen asked him. "My mom happened."
EPILOGUESUBJECT: To my King, My ElroyInfinity Ramos (InfinityRamosSantos@g***l.com) to Paolo Elroy Santos (PaoloElroySantos@g***l.com)Mahal,Today marks 4 years since we were together again, and 11 years as a married couple if we count the years we have been apart. Plus the 2 years we were together before the accident.Who could have thought that the decade we are together would give us a rollercoaster of emotions, trials, and frustrations? Because our relationship has been through so much. Who could have thought that we had only been married for more than a decade? If I wrote our story and turned it into a novel, 100 chapters would not be enough, and maybe my readers would lose the desire to read it!As we celebrate our 11th wedding anniversary, let me say through this email some of the things I find hard to say in person.First, I am sorry. I want to apologize for the things I've done that I know that hurt you. From my decision to leave you after the accident, and the infinite tim

Her brother went home a while ago and only the house helpers and the private nurse were with her in the condo. She is trying to lighten the mood even thoug
***ELROY is livid. He had never felt this kind of anger before. He was busy with his work when Leo called him. He is sure that Leo is angry. But hearing what happened he also felt the same. That's why, before going home, he first went to his parents' mansion. It was almost their dinner time at the mansion, so he knew that his mother was already there. And he found his entire family at the dining table while the servants brought out the food one by one. "P-Paolo, you're here! Come eat dinner with us!” His mother said happily. He can't stomach his mother! How could she
Araw-gabi nasa isip ka, napapanagip kaKahit san man magpuntaAraw-gabi nalalasing sa tuwaKapag kapiling ka, araw-gabi tayong dalawa- Araw Gabi, Regine Velasquez***A few days later, things between Infinity and Elroy patched up. The doctor had given them the go signal to be discharged from the hospital. "Are you sure you can travel to Manila?" Leo asked his sister worriedly. "You know you can stay here to heal more. Besides, Jana said you have passed the critical stage. But we can't be complacent yet. Your pregnancy is delicate.&rdquo
***“GOOD EVENING!” Leo happily greeted his sister as he entered her hospital room. But she's not alone. She's with Enzo, and he also has bruises and cuts on his face. He gave a sweet smile to his little sister and kissed her forehead. She was a little embarrassed, but he didn't mind. She looks cute blushing. "Hello! How was your day? How's the baby?” Leo asked as he was caressing her head. He could hear Enzo grunt on the other side. "Janna said that we should be careful, she had spotting earlier! That asshole stresses her out!”
Go easy on me, baby. I was still a child Didn't get the chance to feel the world around me I had no time to choose, what I chose to do So go easy on me - Easy on Me, Adele *** ELROY was rooted in his place when the man Infinity called Lorenzo told him that he was Infinity's brother. "Sir Lorenzo, Dr. Santa Cruz is asking for you inside.” Said the nurse who had just come out of his wife’s room. Lorenzo walked towards Infinity's room, that's why Elroy decided t
***ELROY did not waste any seconds and started to drive to where his wife was. It took him hours to travel, but he did not feel tired. When he arrived at the said hospital, the visiting hours were over. He decided to stay at the local motel, freshen up, and go to her first thing tomorrow. When the morning came, he bought a flower basket and went straight to the hospital. She asked the front desk where her room was, and the station nurse said it was in the suite. He was in front of her door. He had been waiting for this time for a week. But he didn't know why he was agitated. 3 minutes passed when he decided to knock and open the door. He was welcomed by sofas, which looked like the receiving area of the room. At the end of the room, there was a separate room that looked like the room of the patient itself. He peered and there, he saw his wife. She is sleeping soundly, but based on her face she looks tired. He put the flowers on the bedside table and sat in the visitor's chair
Ikaw lamang ang tangi kong minamahal, ang lagi kong dinarasal. Sana'y habang buhay tayong magkasama, ang puso ko'y ibibigay lamang sa 'yo Ito ang aking pangako mula ngayon hanggang magpakailan pa man. Ikaw lamang - Ikaw Lamang, Gary Valenciano *** ELROY immediately went to the orphanage expecting his wife to be there. But she is nowhere to be found. “Infinity hasn't been back here since you left. The last time we exchanged messages was when you returned from Manila,” Sister Mabelle said to him. Elroy's heart beat erratically. Infinity is not here. Where will he find his wife? He had no idea where she could go. "Thank you, Sister." He just said this while trying to think of where his wife could go. He wasted no time and immediately left the orphanage. It had been a long drive from Manila, but he would not hesitate to return there just to find out where his wife was. "P-Paolo! Paolo!” He heard sister Mabelle shouting his name, so he immediately stopped getting in the car.
