Be Your Everything

Chapter 1: Debut

Nahanap mo na ba ang taong magbibigay sa'yo ng halaga?

Yung gagawin ang lahat para sa'yo?

Yung taong kahit mataas ang pride, magsosorry sa'yo?

Yung taong bubuo nang araw mo?

Yung taong magpapabilis kay Dearest Heart?

Yung taong na magpapafeel sa iyo ng excitement na may kaba pero masarap na feeling na parang ang saya?

Yung kahit "hi"at "hello" lang di mo pa masabi?

Yung taong magpapakatanga ka para lang sa kanya?

Hay. Kung nakitamo na siya, pwes inggit ako sa'yo. Hindi ko na kasi mararansan yun eh.

Bakit? Well, Today is the most awaited day of my family. . . except me.

Well let me tell you about myself. I'm Kheen Mayo Montero. Im a 2nd year College.

Today, something big will happen.

Wanna know what?

Ipakikilala na nila sa akin yung magiging fiance ko. Hindi ko siya kailan man nakita. Mom told me about him. Pero never akong nagkaroon ng interest sa kanya. For me he is a stranger. The stranger that will take everything away from me.

The one who will take my freedom, my happiness and my chance to find my one true love.

Bata palang ako, sabi nina mommy we are destined to be together. That guy wanted me to be his from the start. I was 7 years old ata nung sinabi ni mommy na may fiance na ako. Well ano ba ang alam ko sa mga ganyang bagay? Bata pa kaya ako that time. I had no freakin' idea about the whole fiance thing. Nagkamuwang na lamang ako nung first year high school ako noon. My friends started to date na. I asked my mom if I could date some boys, well sabi niya, hindi daw pwedi kasi I have na daw my fiance and he will be really sad if he finds out na may boyfriend ako sa school.

I was jealous of my friends. They experienced their romantic and ideal first date.

While me?

I was left behind.

Hindi rin ako makarelate sa mga topic about sa boys. I never had a crush with the boys in my school. Mahangin kasi. Mayayabang at parang kanila ang school. Maraming nagpapansin pero deadma ako parati. It's not that I'm a snob but, I just can't find myself to like them. And also I don't wanna hurt my secret fiance. Even though he's a secret. Secret siya na in a way di ko siya nakita but in our family and also with my friends, alam nila na may fiance na ako.

And today, I'm going to finally meet him.

I'm turning 18. Mr.Secret Fiancè will be my 18th roses. They will formally annouce my engagement to him.

Sino ba talaga 'tong si Mr. Secret Fiancè? Naiinis ako sa kanya! Never siya nagpakita sakin. He sends me food at home. Gifts on every special ocassions. When I say every special occasions, I mean, Birthdays, Christmas, New Year, Valentines at kung ano pang occasions that we celebrate in our family. He would always send me something. It may be food, or things na parati ko need sa school or personal ko ng kailangan. He knows what I need and what I want. Even when I'm in school, when one time I forgot to bring my umbrella because it was raining and early dismissal kami kasi signal number 3 na. He sent his body guard and driver to pick me up at school. Na surprise na lang ako parati sa mga pakulo niya.

I'm very grateful pero I don't feel anything for him. I can't even back out. Business partners kasi yung mga parents namin. And he already invested his time, effort and money on me since I was 7. I am afraid of what will happen to me. Gusto ko pang mag-aral at may mapatunayan sa buhay. I want to be an accomplished woman before settling down. But, I can't do that anymore. And its because of him.
