"The Buenavista's and the Lira's had dropped the bomb of the upcoming marriage of the first grandson, Klaus Lorenzo Buenavista and the runway model, Skylar Mia Lira..."

"He's definitely getting married."

I sadly whispered to myself as I read a newly written online article about the society's latest news. Saab knows that I'm already aware of her brother's marriage to Skylar Lira.

I'm disappointed and sad because she didn't mention it to me but I also understand her dahil she's just protecting me and my feelings. I don't know what to feel to be quite honest. At the end of the day, she'll have to prioritize her older brother which I totally understand.

Family first, right?

Maybe this is also the reason why she's pushing me to meet other people. She knew about her brother's marriage thing.

Ilang araw na akong nag kukulong sa kwarto ko. Maybe a week or so now? I don't know. I know everyone is worried especially Franki and Saab since they know the truth about what's happening but I don't feel like talking to anyone at all right now.

I asked Daddy for a short break from work dahil ako ang kasalukuyang Head of Operations niya but I am not in my right state of mind to handle such a huge responsibility while going through all of this. I rarely request for things kaya nagulat din si Daddy ng hingin ko 'to which he supported even without knowing the reason.

I heard a soft knock on my door. "I got you some food, Cheesy. I'll leave it outside your door." I heard her loud sigh. "Please eat.. pretty please? You also need to take your meds.."

Franki is super worried. Ever since the news broke out, she just stayed by my side. Alam kong busy din ito dahil sa exams niya but hindi niya pa din ako pinapabayaan. Minsan, kahit na maloko 'to, mas ate pa siya kesa sakin.

I cannot function well. OA man pakinggan but knowing that your person is going to get married soon is like a sudden death for me. I rather not have everything in this world just so I can have him.

I would choose to die than see him marry a woman who isn't me. I just can't.

I can still remember everything when I first laid my eyes on Klaus so many years ago. I was only four years old when I knew what it means to like someone that much.

"Hi! I'm Saab! What's your name?" This is the first time I'm meeting my Mommy's bestfriend's kids.

I waved at her and gave her a big smile. "Chesi and this is my baby sister Franki." I said my name and also introduced my sister that's standing beside me.

We only met today 'cos I've been in and out of the hospital. This is the first time everyone is meeting each other. My health is better now kaya natuloy din ang family vacation namin with Tita Aura's family here sa Canada to spend Christmas time.

"That's my baby brother, Karlos Enrique. It's his nap time." Saab said while pointing her finger at her Dad, Tito Migi, who's holding a sleeping little boy in his arms.

"Play barbie! Let's play puhlease!" Franki excitedly said as she clapped her small hands.

We're currently playing while listening to some music in the huge living room inside their vacation house while our parents are busy talking sa may dining area. It's also snowing outside pero mahina lang naman. It's not drizzling.

"Hmm.. I wonder where's my Kuya." Saab pouted as she looked around while brushing her doll's hair. "He's always missing whenever there are other people."
