THE YEAR 2019, the results of Birshcet International School had been released, 2 months after Jane let Marian grasped her arms on the bench while she sat down on the bench. She swallowed as she wiped the handkerchief on her face while the tears were streaming down on her face. She glimpsed at the doors shut tight as she knew that her son was now inside the morgue. Marian looked at her worriedly as she pursed her lips while she glanced out of the way. She bit her lip as she looked the other way. Justin halted abruptly in his place as the doctor removed the blanket over his head. He bowed down his head completely as he glanced the other way while still huffing some air over his mouth. He saw how blue his skin now was, the white hairs were still on his hair, not moving, his feet were now parallel with one another, and his chest was not breathing up and down.

I thought you had to take a guard with both Justin and Marian."Hazi didn't answer any about it and he knew that he had to unfold what happened in the last two months after the arranged marriage plan. They don't have anything to do with the arranged marriage and Marian's mother had a knack to still push what happened on that established plan. Danny and Hazi took some time to delved into the silence in between them.

Paul huffed an air as he pocketed his cell phone on the pockets of his coat and he glanced at the building. He walked towards the porch as he stepped on the front lobby and said, "Let's go."Paul was the first one to walk ahead as he breathed out. His son was puzzled about his rush and he knew that his father was so worried about his nanny. Danny followed suit as Hazi turned his heel around also and they rushed to get through the lobby.

***THE YEAR 2019, the burial of Jordan MendozaJane was wearing a collared ivory shirt, while she was holding the marble and gray jar close to her chest, as she walked down towards the hallways. The maids from the mansion were also there, paying their condolences and wishing that the soul could rest in peace after it had been buried. The emotions were clear from her face as she walked very slowly, while Justin was holding a white rose in his hands. He was behind his mother, as he looked down and the tears trickled down once more. Marian was also there, and she had been perceived to be there when she knew that Justin wouldn't have someone to lean closer to. She looked the other way as Jane walked past ahead of her while sobbing. They stopped in front of the priest in the hallways and bowed down their heads. The chrysanthemums and orchids were lined up on the table as the priest held onto the microphone han
***THE YEAR 2019, the burial of Jordan MendozaPaul was left alone on the side of the hallway as Marian stood still and averted her eyes towards the other way. She sighed as she looked down at her feet and she doesn't know what to feel. She had never experienced being without parents or something, but for ma'am Jane, she lost them both."I never thought that the smile I will never see was with my father," Jane shook her head as she glanced the other way and she cried while Danny was looking up from his seat. He saw the name of Jane's father as he heard weeping on the other side."That was when the time I saw him smile 2 months ago... it took so fast for me to realize that it was the last smile I would ever see from his lips," Jane cried as she closed her eyes tightly and she remembered the time when she had to undergo that crisis once aga

She was looking at her bare face at the reflection, and melancholy music was playing over the speaker by the side. She was at the dressing and vacant room of the Sy's mansion, waiting for the makeup artists, who will be painting her face to make her glamorous.Marian stared back at the grieving eyes looking back at her. This was it. The time she would be marrying someone she doesn't want to be off. She just wanted a happy life, wherein she could decide what will happen to her life.

"Good Morning, Mr. Ramos!" One teacher greeted Justin as he paved the way towards the faculty. He nodded and saluted to him. The elementary students rummaged their way towards the classroom as the bell started to ring. The wind breezed through the surface of Jacob's Elementary School, and Justin felt the cold air. He opened the faculty office's door and walked straight towards his table. "Mr. Ramos, do you hear the news?" Ms. Santiago asked him. He looked towards her while putting his backpack on his chair and organizing his lesson plans for the first class. "What news?" Justin asked her while scanning the papers. "We are holding a valentine's event on February 13, this Saturday, on the Biñan Town Plaza. And you will be the host," Ms. Santiago said to him, giddy about it. Justin halted and looked at her. "What? Why me?" Justin asked her, surprised. "You are the love expert here. You know, you are the only Values Education subject teacher here that is praised by the children. They
"Oh no, Justin and his mother, it's heartbreaking!" "No, why did his father do that?" "Bad person, bad!" The comments of the children erupted as soon as Justin said the introduction of the story. "I know, class. But, everybody has a reason for anything that they do. Even if it is wrong for someone's eye, some perspective might say that they are walking the right path. Class, let me remind you this: do not judge the person who is wronged and walking the unethical path. Because, at some point, the end of that road, is the judge of our life."***THE YEAR 1999A baby is crying in his rib. The white clothes ruffled across his body, and his cry erupted through the pediatric ward of the hospital. His mother, Jane Ramos, struggled to get up in her hospital bed as she heard the weeping of the baby. His father almost jumped out of the couch as soon as he heard the loud cry. Jane sighed and looked at the crib. Stan stood up from the couch and soothed Jane's back."I will deal with it. Just
***THE YEAR 2001“Happy Birthday, Justin! Happy Birthday, Justin! Happy Birthday, happy birthday! Happy Birthday, Justin!” Everyone is clapping and singing happily to a birthday song. Justin smiled as he saw his mother on his right side and his father on his left side. He observed the whole kitchen and saw the birthday party hats on his uncles’ and aunts’ heads. His cousins are also wearing one, even though they are playing in the living room, and don't want to disturb a celebration that is happening in the kitchen.Justin, a 2-year-old boy now, blew the candle on his square-shaped cake designed with a logo of Superman completed with red and blue icings. He grinned as his relatives clapped.“We can now eat! Enjoy!” Jane exclaimed and passed the plates onto the table. They started to scoop some rice from the large bowl, rolled chicken meat seasoned with minced carrots wrapped around in a wonton, meaty spaghetti, cordon bleu with mayonnaise sauce, and vegetable glazed with butter.

Jane sobbed as the doors finally opened and someone came out from there. He was wearing a surgical mask and a blue uniform. He wore off the mask from his mouth and glanced at the people outside. Danny whispered to his nanny that the doctor finally came out and Jane quickly stood up from her seat. Justin also did the same thing as Hazi and Marian followed suit. Jane glanced at the doctor as she placed her hands on her chest while asking, “Can I see my father now?” The forensic doctor nodded as he instructed something while Jane was nodding her head. Only one can come in inside the morgue as the doctor said that they should wait for minutes. Jane hurried inside while the tears we
***THE YEAR 2019, the results of Birschet International School had been released, 2 months afterJustin was surprised by her touch that Hazi looked away suddenly. Justin grabbed a hold of her wrists and smiled at her. He put it down on her sides while Marian’s inner brows were raised. She swallowed as Justin turned his heel around and didn’t have the time to speak any more words towards Marian. Hazi was left alone with Marian as she smiled at him. “Let’s go,” Hazi said simply as he followed Justin inside. Marian pursed her lips and followed Hazi behind. Meanwhile, Danny was sitting down beside Jane now on the outside doors of the morgue, still waiting for them to be summoned and enter the room as soon as possible. Danny sighed as Jane was still weeping beside him. Danny turned his head towards her while he swallowed and said, “Everythin
***THE YEAR 2019, the results of Birschet International School had been released, 2 months afterJustin was left alone at the swing while remembering that scene. He placed his fists on the sand while he punched it over and over again but the pain won't go aside from his heart. He shook his head as he finally sat down in a curling position while he howled in the center."Grandpa... why?" Justin asked himself in a crying voice while he propped up his arms wrapped around his knees while he cuckooed his head in between. He was surprised with what he did but he knew that he couldn't know what he will do. The thunder cracked together with the lightning on the clouds while he was still sitting down on that sandbox. He doesn't care if he will be soaked with sweat or rain now, he just knew that he was in pain, and he couldn't move. He felt numb, resentment over the one that was ru
