Xynth's POV
I'm wearing a long sleeve in Vyn's favorite color which is White. I also brought her white roses. She really loves white roses. I remember when tita used to talk about it when I was at Vyn's place saying how much Vyn loves to keep white roses everyday in her room.* F L A S H B A C K *
Vyn's Place
"Oh hijo nandito ka pala" tita greeted me with a warm hug. She said she see's me as one of her own. Kaya I feel so comfortable whenever I'm here, same with tito.
"Ah yes po, I went to see how Lexi is doing po. I bought some pizza and bucket meal nadin po on the way" nilapag ko na ang dala ko sa lamesa
"Nako nag abala kapa hijo, oh sya nandun si Lexi sa kwarto niya kaso baka tulog pa yon. Pagod ata"
Hinayaan ko nalang muna siyang matulog at di ko na ginising. Inaya ako ni tita sa sala at may ipinakita siyang childhood pictures ni Lexi, holding a piece of white rose.
"She loves white roses po talaga no, tita. I put one piece of white rose in her backpack nung hinatid ko siya for the first time here. I saw a note fell out from his notebook kasi sa school that says her favorite flower is white rose, kaya I bought one for her"
"That's so sweet of you, hindi pa kayo magkakilala non pero ganon na ang ginawa mo. Dun palang masasabi ko na sincere ka talaga sa anak ko and I'm so thankful for you, sana hindi ka magbago hijo" I won't change tita don't worry
" I just admired her the moment I met her, I never knew I'd fall deeply"
" The reason why she use to love white roses is that nung bata siya doon siya nagbakasyon sa lola niya sa probinsya. Which is sa mother ko, eh yung mom ko mahilig sa mga flowers. Pagkadating na pagkadating namin sa bahay ni Mom eh ayun agad napagtuunan niya ng pansin. Tinulungan niya magtanin and mag alaga ng mga bulaklak si Mom. Paboritong tanim din ni Mom yun. She believes that White roses symbolize loyalty and purity. Mahal na mahal din ni Vyn ang Lala niya, hanggang sa isang gabi namatay sa heart attack si Mom. Kaya bilang alaala ni Vyn lagi siyang nagkekeep ng white roses sa kwarto niya"
That's some sad and heartbreaking story. Mas lalo ko minahal si Lexi dahil sa kwento ni Tita. She deserved to be loved and she deserves everything.

Present
I'm now heading out to the place where Vyn's at.
My phone rang while I was driving so picked it up."Hello?"
"Anong oras ka pupunta don?" Tanong ni Leo sakin
" Uhm now, kayo ba?"
"Yeah, we're on the way" sagot niya tsaka binaba ang phone
Ang dami niyang bisita, hindi ko akalain na madami pa pala siyang relatives from other countries. Dumating na din sila Leo at Blake. Blake is holding a Balloon and also Leo. Pinahawak muna nila sa mga bata kasi pupuntahan din nila si Vyn. Inilapag ko din ang hawak kong roses tsaka ko pinuntahan si Vyn.
"You look so beautiful my Love" I said while looking at her. "You're always be the best woman and the best girl for me. You look so gorgeous in your dress too, sabi mo diba mag boboracay pa tayo after your birthday. Wake up kana Love. Everyone's waiting for you na oh. You didn't told me about your condition love, you're so madaya. If I only knew sana niyakap kita at di na pinakawalan sa bisig ko non. I will always remember our memories even just for a short time Love. I love you so much" di ko na napigilan ang hikbi ko na kanina ko pa pinipigilan. Pinuntahan naman ako ni Blake at Leo, tinatapik nila likod ko habang pinapatahan ako sa pag iyak.
" If i only knew Blake, I will stay by her side 24\7, If I just only knew! " Tuloy parin pag iyak ko.
Pinuntahan ako ng mama ni Vyn at niyakap habang umiiyak din
" I'm sorry. She has a Cancer and she didn't want you or anyone to know kaya she keep it to herself" umiiyak na sabi ng Mom ni Vyn
" She was suffering all this time yet she didn't bother to tell us"
" Kaya pala dati she always look pale and laging sumasakit ulo niya, she had that cancer for so long and she didn't even tell me about that" sabi ni Leo
It's time for her burial
" I love you for infinity my Love, my angel. Please come back. I hope we'll meet again soon, in another life. You've always been a great girlfriend, great friend and a great daughter to all of us. Kaya pala sabi mo nung nasa beach tayo "I wish we could stay like this forever" kasi may sakit kana non. I also wish love. I wish you were also here yy my side, at sana hindi ako nagsasalita sa gitna para magpaalam sayo habang buhay. Habang buhay kitang mamahalin mahal ko. Be our angel. I love you so much" I throw the rose at her coffin while wiping my tears.
Di ko talaga lubos akalain na ang isang masiyahin na kagaya mo ang unang kukunin sakin.I was planning a proposal for you after college eh,bakit ka naman nang iiwan Love. You didn't do anything except for caring and loving us. I'll always look at the moon, thinking that it's you. You will always be my favorite moon. My favorite girl. I love you so much Lovyndale Lexi Ramos.
