Months passed, after Irene's burial, the Marcos Araneta Family had never felt so lonely and devastated as they are now. Kate stayed with Imee, while the other ones gets back to Forbes, Malacañang Palace & Ilocos Norte.

Kate spend most of her time on her studies, it's her everyday routine. Greggy spends his time on his work to avoid being lonely, same with Luis & Alfonso. The other girl, Janella, decided to go back to California to continue her studies.

Today is Saturday and it's Kate's rest day, the lady decided to visit her mother because she indeed miss her so much. She walk towards her mother's grave and [smile] at it.

"Hi mommy.. It's me again, I miss you so much, how are you there?"

She put the flowers on the side and light up the candle before she sitdown, she always visits her when she's free and she doesn't forget to bring flowers with her.

"It hurts mom, hindi mo manlang nahintay na maging isang ganap na abogado na ako but I know you're always there to support me, I hope I can make you proud ma. Malapit na po yung graduation ko and I'm just waiting for the results, I want you to know na kung ano man yung mare-receive kong achievements, it's all for you mommy. Thank you for being my inspiration in everything, thank you for motivating me in your own little way. I hope you can see me walk on the stage as I receive my diploma but I'm certain that you will because you promised right? And you'll not break it naman diba?"

Kate talked to her, while tears were already streaming down on her cheeks.

"I'm living with mama Imee as of the now mommy pero binibisita ko naman po sila daddy doon sa Forbes, hindi ko po kasi kayang iwan siya lalo na ngayon, we're all devastated mommy. It feels so lonely without you and my heart keeps on breaking whenever I'm in a realization na hindi na kita makikita totally, namin. Sana pala mas niyakap kita ng mahigpit, I wish I spend much more time with you, sana I forgive you earlier than I did, sana hindi na muna ako umalis, I should've stayed by your side—I'm sorry mommy.. All those what ifs will forever be hunting me, I should've not let my pride eat me edi sana mas nagkasama at nakapag-bonding tayo diba? Pero look what happened, sorry for thinking so dumb and stupid ma.."

"I'm so sorry for making you suffer, for hurting you, for pushing you away a couple of times, for wishing na sana hindi nalang ikaw yung naging mommy ko, for the words I throw to you that hurt you so much, for—for everything. I'm so stupid for making you feel the pain I've cost you, I hope you knew how proud I am that you're my mom, how grateful and thankful I am to you, how lucky I am to have you. Thank you for always being my safest haven, my protector, my defender and my comforter. In you, I couldn't ask for more because I've found a bestfriend, a double holder in my heart because you were not just a mother to me but also my first friend, my first bestfriend. Thank you because even if I pushed you a lot of times, you didn't gave up on me, you're still in my side, you're always in my behind, you're always there when I needed help, you made me feel that your worthy to forgive, I wish I also had the chance to make you feel what you've always make me feel. I will cherish all the memories we've done ma, thank you for the love and care that I will adore forever. I love you more than words mom, be happy there with papa Macoy and baby {Vince} my lil' brother, right? I love the three of you and I miss you all so much."

She breathed-out and took her ukelele out of the bag, she'll do her usual routine whenever she's visiting her mom, sing a song for her.

Would you know my name?
If I saw you in heaven
Would it be the same?
If I saw you in heaven
