Life isn't always fair.
It never was.
In a life that is not always made from bed of roses, how will they be able to withstand the ever changing circumstances without breaking each other's hearts?

GREGGY's POV:
I woke up to an empty bed. I know I slept with Irene beside me, but where is she? We have to travel from Makati to Batangas today for the wedding this weekend. But where the hell is my bride? It's safe to assume, I would say.. that she's in the dining or the kitchen. Because she needs to eat all the time! How is she maintaining her tiny frame? I have no idea. When I got to the dining, it's just my parents.She didn't leave me, right? or has she?
"Ma, Pa. Morning. Si Irene?" 'Sit down. Coffee, anak?' "Si Irene na po mag gagawa Ma. Nasan na asawa ko?"
My father is grinning like an idiot while my mother is trying her hardest to suppress her smile. What is wrong with them?
'Sa Sunday pa.' "What is it, Pa?" 'Sa Sunday mo pa asawa. Friday pa lang, Greggy.'
Yaya Inday, Marilen and Jackie bursts out laughing much to my annoyance!
"Pa.. whatever! Nasan nga si Irene?" 'Maaga umalis, nag punta sa UP. May aayusin raw para sa enrollment nya.' "What? Alam nya ba? We're leaving today?"
'She knows. Daanan nyo na lang nila Butch dun. Si Nick naman driver nyo eh. Kumain ka na.' "Bakit hindi nya ako ginising? Hindi man lang nagpa alam."
'Anak, hayaan lang raw na matulog ka ehh. Pagod ka raw kasi.' "That's not the point, Ma. Isipin mo, from here diretso na sana tayo pa Batangas, pupunta pa ng Taft dahil nandun siya."
I am not pissed because we have to reroute. I am pissed because I wanted to see her first thing in the morning! And she's not here. I checked my phone to see if she sent any messages, but there are none. Next week will be their graduation, so why does she have to go back? I bet she's all done with whatever pending school works she has.
'Kasi nga anak pagod ka raw. Ano ba ginawa mo kagabi? Bakit pagod ka?' "Pa?" 'Nakaka pagod ba matulog?'
The heck! I know what they are thinking. I would've thought the same thing myself, but truth be told? We didn't do it. At least, not yet.
*** On our way to UP Manila, Irene's been sending me messages about her whereabouts. But instead of feeling relieved, it only added fuel to my already burning patience for her!

What the actual fuck is this now? Kanina may aayusin sa school! Now nasa fast food naman! This early, gumagala siya!
"Nick, sa Wendy's raw si Irene. Alam mo na raw kung saan." 'Ahh oo, GA. Malapit lang sa PGH yun ehh.' "Palagi siya dun?" 'Hindi naman. Kuripot yun, si Doc. Dun lang yun palagi sa canteen ng ospital o kaya sa kanto kanto dun sa Ermita.'
