Lala Meldy's POV

The whole family is still at awe. looking at Irene now she looks complete, she look genuinely happy and i am grateful to the Lord for that, cause ever since that tragedy happened to her  it felt like i had lost my daughter too, that sweet caring, and affectionate daughter i had raise. i know it wasn't only me who felt that way but as a mother it hurts me seeing my daughter like that, because at that time she felt helpless and she hated herself for everything, with just one snap the daughter i had known suddenly disappeared. 

I am super grateful for tin, cause she is the reason for irene's happiness not only her's of course but for the whole family. 

As i was preparing to get ready for the day this morning i had thought of something wonderful... A party to celebrate Tin, and also to announce that after 12 years we hve finally found her. i decided to tell Irene about it. she was at the garden so i went there and talked to her 

"good morning anak" i greeted her as i was walking towards her 

"oh hi mommy, good morning" she said and met me half way  and assisted me on the chair 

"asan si Celestine?" tanong ko 

"nasa room niya po ma, she's getting ready for the day" she then answered me 

"oh i see" i answered 

" so i was wondering, what if we throw a party for Celestine, a welcome back party" i added

"oh... mommy about that we have to ask tin if okay sakaniya yun" irene answered

"ask me what po?" singit naman ni tin na nasa likod pala namin

"good morning lala, morning mommy" she greeted us and gave us a kiss

"good morning apo" 

"good morning my baby" yakap naman ni irene sakaniya

"anyways ano po yung itatanong saakin?" she asked 

"ah anak, your lala meldy kasi wants to throw a big party for you, and i wanted t ask you first before we go on and plan kasi baka naman hindi ka pa comfortable sa ganun" irene explained

"it's fine with me po, as long as it's not a big party" Celestine replied

nagkatinginan lang kami ni irene and i said 

"well it's just family and friends apo" 

"well then it's fine with me' she said innocently, as she didn't know how much friends we had 

"anak are you sure? sa lala meldy mo palang isang buong barangay na ang friends" irene asked again

"ah ganun po ba hahahaha... sige po it's fine with me if yun po yung gusto niyo. im okay with it" sagot naman ni tin

"uhm excuse me po lala and mommy, hanapin ko lang sila kuya" she excused herself and left the garden 

Irene's POV

nag dadalawang isip ako sa sagot ni tin kanina, ayoko naman na gawin niya yung party na yun dahil lang napipilitan siya. to be hinet ayaw ko pa talaga i-announce sa lahat about her eh, not because kinakahiya ko siya, of course not! pero natatakot ako na baka pag piyestahan siya ng media and as much as possible i want her to have a private life a life na hindi sia natataot lumabas kasi baka pagkaguluhan siya, i dont want her to experience all that fuss, imossible pero hangga't kayang iwasan, iiwasan namin

Celestine's POV

nagulat Ako Ng malaman ko na gusto ni lala na mag throw ng party to announce things about me. Syempre nasiyhin din ako hindi nila ako kinakahiya, pero at the same time may kaba mask hindi naman Ako sanay sa lime light, nakakahiya lang tumanggi kasi kitang kita sa mga mata ni lala na excited siya
