BLAIRE'S POV

Her mother looked at her and smiled, "The prince marry the princess and they live happily ever after..."

"Wow!~ is there a prince in real life, Mom?" tanong niya sa kanyang ina pagkatapos basahin ang librong palagi nitong binabasa sa kanya bago matulog.

"Yes, sweetie!" nakangiting sagot nito sa kanya.

"Yay! I'm excited to meet him, Mom!"

"He will marry me, then... we live happily ever after too!" excited na wika nito.

"Of course! you will meet him sweetie at the right time, okay!" she said while caressing Blaire's long soft hair.

Habang nagsasalita pa ang kanyang ina ay unti-unti ng pumipikit ang kanyang mga mata and when she opened her eyes again, nasa loob na siya ng kanilang sasakyan. She wondered how she got there.

"Hmmm, was it all a dream?" pagtatakang bulong niya sa sarili.

Habang nakatingin sa labas ng bintana ng kanilang kotse, "Mom, are we there yet?" tanong niya sa kanyang ina.

She looked at her and smiled, "Yes, sweetie! we're almost at your grandmother's house."

The rain started pouring down, while her parents were busy talking she was happily watching them from behind.

Maya-maya pa ay isang nakakasilaw na liwanag ang tumama sa kanila kasabay ng malakas na pagsalpok ng isang ten wheeler truck sa kanilang sasakyan.

Wasak na wasak ang unahang bahagi nito at dead on the spot ang mga nakaupo sa driver's seat. Samantala, hindi naman maigalaw ni Blaire ang kanyang katawan mula sa pagkakaipit.

"Mom... Dad..." ang huli niyang winika bago tuluyang mawalan ng malay.

(Rrrrrring ... Rrrrrring ... Rrrrrring)

As my alarm clock went off, I woke up crying in my bed. I couldn't stop the tears from falling in my eyes every time I dreamed of mom and dad.

"Blaire apo, gising ka na ba?" tanong ni lola habang kumakatok sa pinto ng kwarto ko.

"Opo, Lola!" mahinang sagot ko.

Since I became an orphan, grandma took care of me and now that she is old, I want to take care of her too, so as much as possible I don't want her to worry about me.

Mag-isa na lang din kasi siya sa buhay dahil matagal nang namaalam sa amin si Lolo dahil sa sakit nito.

"Lola... maupo na po kayo jan, ako na po ang mag-aasikaso sa sarili ko." sabi ko sa kanya habang busy siya sa paghahanda ng breakfast ko.

"Apo... malakas pa ang lola, hane! Hayaan mo na lang muna akong alagaan kita." pagpupumilit nito.

"Kumain kana jan at baka malate ka pa sa klase mo." paalala nito.

"I love you, Lola!" paglalambing ko sa kanya habang nakayakap ako sa likod niya.

"I love you too, Blaire!" magiliw nitong sagot.
