"A letter from an ex-girlfriend to the new girlfriend." Jaye murmured. Hindi niya alam kung ilang oras na siyang nakatunganga sa harap ng laptop niya basta ang alam niya sa sandaling iyon ang laptop niya lang ang tanging kaibigan na kailangan niya. "Hi. I don't know what to call you to be exact but I know this time you made my dearest Chester happier than I did. It hurts so much to me that he choose you instead of me. He choose to love you more than me." She began to read the first sentence.

"But for him I have to make a choice in order for him to be truly happy with your side. I love him so much more than you ever imagine and more than you love him. I did everything to make our relationship goes well but I guess I wasn't enough for him. I have to set him free and be happy. For this moment, I'm in the moment of crying and crying all over again but one day I'll be fine. I hope you won't leave him. I hope you will stay at his side always. I hope you will love him just as much as you can. I hope you can take care of him every time. I hope you understand too that this time I really hate you and I know you are really aware why. I think this is all."

She sighed. Inabot niya ang tissue na nasa gilid niya. "Bwisit talaga yung mga taong nang-iiwan dahil lang sa nakatagpo ng bago." Suminghot siya. "Shit! Naiiyak na ulit ako!"

She couldn't stopped the tears flowing in her cheeks. "Kailangan ko iiyak lahat ito. Kailangan!" pang aalo niya sa sarili niya habang pilit na ngumingiti. She turned around and found her reflection on the mirror. "Hay. Ang ganda ko kahit umiiyak ako. Bakit di nakita ni Hans ito mukha ko na mala-dyosa?" Aaktong iiyak na ulit siya dahil nabanggit niya ang pangalan ng ex niya ng biglang may kumatok sa pinto ng kwarto niya. "Ano ba! Nag-eemote ako dito" sigaw niya. "Wag nga kayong disturbo. Please lang."

"Open the door Jaye." The voice ordered. She was stunned. . Paano niya kaya nalaman na heartbroken ako? Awtomatikong sumimangot siya kasi naputol ang pag-eemote niya pero alam niya sa kalooban niya na kailangan niya buksan ang pinto. She had no choice but to open it. Di na siya nabigla kung sino ang nasa harapan niya ngayon. Knowing her brother's voice in her entire life could only made her knees shivered.

"Bakit Master?" nakayukong sabi niya. Sigurado siya na sermon na naman ang aabutin niya sa isang nilalang na mulo ulo hanggang paa ginagalang at nirerespeto niya. Century Villamor is her only brother in this entire Earth and her best friend since birth. 'Master' ang tawag niya. Iyon ang nakaugalian na itawag nito sa kanya simula noon bata pa sila.

"Di po ba may training ka na sinasalihan sa bundok Master? Bakit po kayo nandito? At saka restricted po ngayon ang kwarto ko kaya if you mind Master," she sighed. "Makakaalis ka na ho."

"Don't you dare to sweep me away" her brother said. Century walked towards her room and shut down her laptop. "Please don't do this to yourself Jaye, ako kasi una nasasaktan eh. Nasasaktan ako pag alam ko na umiiyak ka. Mas nasasaktan ako kapag wala akong magagawa para lang maging okay ang feeling ng nag-iisang prinsesa ng buhay ko. Alam ko na protective ako sayo pero alam ko din na hindi ako yung tipong kapatid na lalaki na emotionally attached sayo pero ang alam ko lang ngayon nasasaktan ang kapatid ko. Umiiyak. Kung gusto mo ng karamay, nandito ako." Her brother spread his arms wide to give her a hug.

Umiiyak siyang lumalapit sa kapatid niya. "Kuya!' she cried. "Magiging okay naman ako eh pero sa ngayon gusto ko lang talaga umiyak." She hugged her brother so tight.

"I know." Century tapped her back. "I know."

Inangat niya ang ulo niya. "Thank you Master ha?"

Her brother just gave her tired smile. "Tahan na. Ipinagluto ka ni Mama ng paborito mo. I'm sure matutuwa sila Mama at Papa kung sabay tayong kakain di ba?"

She just nodded. "Okay Master."
