As I stood at a distance, hidden from view, my heart heavy with the weight of regret and longing, I watched Marisse, the high school crush who had once captured his heart, walk down the aisle towards a future that no longer included mine.

"sarap naman ng luto mo, Marisse. puwede ka nang magtayo ng sarili mong karinderya, tiyak magiging successful din kaagad" nakangiting usal ni Mang Jun saka uminom ng tubig. "salamat, Mang Jun! hayaan nyo po balang araw ay magtayayo po ako ng sariling karinderya" sagot ko naman. Kalahating oras, nang makatapos kami sa pagkain ay agad na bumalik sa kanya-kanyang gawain ang mga trabahador, pati na rin sina Nanay at Tatay. Nang maiwan ako ay naisip ko na naman si ate. Papaano nya nagawa ito sa amin. Bata pa rin siya, at hindi ito tama. Para makapag libang kahit saglit ay iniwan ko muna sa kubo ang mga lagayan ng pagkain, saka nagtungo papunta sa taniman. Nagpasungkit ako kay Aries ng ilang pirasong hinog at hilaw na mangga. Ang may ilan ring saging na naroon. Pinili ko na lamang na iwanan sa kubo ang mga hinog na saging para may makain sila, samantalang ang hilaw naman ay iuuwi ko sa amin mamaya. P

    Ako naman ay naiyak na lamang muli sa nangyari saka dali-daling inayos ang sarili at ang kusina. Pagkatapos kong mag ligpit ng kalat ay dali-dali akong nagkulong sa kwarto, saka muling umiyak. Dahil sa kakaiyak ay nakatulog agad ako. Malamig na dami ng hangin ang dumampi sa balat ko dahil hindi ko pala naisarado ang bintana sa aking kwarto. Agad akong tumingin sa salamin. Hindi naman ako halata na umiyak, kaya naman ay maari na akong lumabas. Gabi na, nandidito na ang aking mga magulang. Ngunit bago pa man ako makatayo mula sa kama ay napadaing na lamang ako dahil masakit ang gitna ko. "Mukhang napagod ang dalaga namin ah, sarap ng tulog mo kanina anak e" bungad sa akin ni Nanay. "Hindi na kita ginising kanina, baka maistorbo kita. Oh sya, kumain ka na" dugtong pa nito. Nginitian ko naman ito saka umupo. "Kayo po ba, 'nay, 'tay, kumain na po ba kayo?" Tanong ko sa mga ito.

    "may s-sinabi kase sa akin 'yung Adrian. A-ate, okay ka lang ba?" Nag aalalang tanong ko rito. Agad nanlaki ang kaniyang mata. Isinarado nya ang pinto ng aking kwarto saka lumapit sa akin. "Anong sinabi nya sa'yo?" Matapang na tanong niya. Kahit na ganoon pa man ay ramdam kong kinakabahan siya."A-apat daw ang umaangkin sa'yo minsan" sagot ko saka tumungo. "Ikaw bata ka, hindi ko alam na chismosa ka rin" pikon na sabi nya. "Ikaw na nga ang best bait-baitan, ngayon kinacareer mo na rin ang pagiging chismosa. You're unbelievable. At tsaka, kailan ka pa nag-alala sa akin, ha? Kailan pa kayo nag-alala sa akin?" May bahid na sama ng loob na dugtong nito. "Ate, I'm just worried about you. Kapatid kita, kaya dapat ako ang karamay mo" sabi ko. "Well, hindi ko kailangan ang ramay mo. Ito ang tatandaan mo ha, malalagot ka sa akin kapag isinumbong mo ako kina Nanay at Tatay" bilin nito bago lumabas. Ako naman ay naiwan na lamang na tulala sa nangyari.

    Vanessa's POVAs I stood at the threshold of a new chapter in my life, my heart brimming with gratitude and humility, for the past few years, noong mahigit apat na taon na nasa kamay ng mga Acosta si Marisse, doon, I reflected on the journey that had led me to this moment of redemption and reconciliation. The echoes of my past mistakes, the shadows of betrayal and regret that had once clouded my existence, now seemed like distant memories as I embraced the forgiveness and acceptance that Marisse had extended to me. Minsan, pakiramdam ko, sa dami ng pagkukulang at kasalanan ko sa kaniya, hindi ko deserve na mapatawad niya, o mapatawad ng pamilya niya. I still clearly remembered back when we were young, si Marisse palagi ang apple of the eye nina Nanay at Tatay. Inggit na inggit ako sa kaniya dahil pakiramdam ko, hindi pantay ang pagtingin nila sa amin. So, nag rebelde ako. 'yung pang tuition ko, ginagastos ko lamang sa kung ano-anong bagay, 'yung mga kaibigan ko, iniwan ko dahil kun

    As I stood inside the hallowed halls of the church, my heart beat with a rhythm that echoed the memories of a love long lost and found once more. The soft strains of music filled the air, a melody that wove a tapestry of emotions and longing around him as I watched Marisse, radiant and resplendent, walking down the aisle towards me. She's so perfect in her fitted wedding gown made out of diamonds. She's so gorgeous, everything about her is so pretty. Idagdag pa ang napaka ganda at perpektong kanta na sumasabay sa lakad niya, sa saliw ng musika at isang violin na tinutugtog ng kaibigan kong seaman.

    "Ano bakit parang nakakita ka ng multo?" Tanong ni ate Vanessa sa tatlong babae na nasa harap namin. "T-this is not true. Hindi i-ikaw si Marisse" nauutal na ani ng babae sa amin habang maluha-luhang nakatingin. "Ano! Ilabas mo ngayon ang tapang n'yo. Mga duwag" sigaw muli ni ate Vanessa sa kanila. "Sharmaine, tara na" bulong ng babaeng naka short hair sa babaeng sinampal ni ate Vanessa kanina. So, her name is Sharmaine..."P-patay ka na" naiiyak na ani nito. "Ano, kaya ka ba nawala dahil pagkaraan ng ilang taon, guguluhin mo ang pamilya namin? Kukuhanin mo sa amin ng anak ko si Anthony? Naghihiganti ka ba sa ginawa ko, sa ginawa namin?" Sunod-sunod na tanong nito habang umiiyak. "Shocks" bulong ng isang babae malapit sa amin. "Ano, takot ka girl? Kasi nagpabuntis ka sa lalaking hindi ka naman mahal, napilitan pang magpakasal sa'yo si Anthony dahil diyan sa k*landi*n mo" ani ni ate Vanessa habang nakataas pa ang kanan na kilay.

    As I woke up the next day, a wave of dizziness washed over me, sending a rushing to the bathroom in a panic. The sensation of something strange pressing against my stomach made my heart race, and before she knew it, she was doubled over, vomiting in a whirlwind of confusion and fear."What the. Wala naman akong masyadong kinain kagabi" ani ko habang nakaupo na sa loob ng bathroom ko. Amidst the chaos of my bathroom, a soft knock on the door interrupted her turmoil. "Nak, breakfast is ready. Halikana, sabayan mo na ang Mommy at Daddy mo bago sa pagkain bago sila umalis para magtrabaho" Yaya Dulce, the family maid, stood outside, her voice gentle yet concerned as she announced that breakfast was ready. My mind spun with a mix of emotions as I tried to compose herself and face the day ahead."Ayos ka lang ba diyan? Gusto mo ba pumasok ako?" Tanong ni Yaya Dulce nang hindi agad ako nakasagot.
