*Beep beep beep*

He rubbed his eyes sleepily and glanced at his alarm clock. It's 7:30 in the morning. His first class is at 9 AM. He lazily got up and prepared himself for school. After he's finished he went down their house to greet his mom.

"Morning Ma! What's for breakfast?" He said happily then he kissed his mom on her cheeks.

"Morning my baby boy! Sit." His mom directed her to his sit and prepared his breakfast. "Heres some egg, fried rice and bacon for my growing baby." 

He laughed at his mom's comment. He's a grown man now, but sometimes he likes being babied by his mom. "Maaaa, I'm 23 years old, on my fifth year as an engineering student. You don't have to treat me like a baby anymore." He said acting annoyed.

"Naku, Gerald Randolph, I know you like it when I treat you like a baby." He hugged him tight. "Plus, you will always  be my baby.."

"Cant. Breathe." He said while trying to catch some air.

"Wushuu.. Best Actor talaga ang baby ko. Go eat your breakfast already before you get late for school."

"Yes Mam!" He saluted happily.

Contentment is shown in his face as he finish his breakfast. He has been a jolly guy who is easy going and is love by the people around him. His life may be simple, but he has a big dream of being a good Engineer someday. He wanted to give his mom what his father failed to give them. But behind all these dreams, is a one sweet dream... To finally meet the person who he can love forever.

On the other side of Quezon City........

It's already 8AM and she is on her 5th lap of her morning swim. No wonder, she has a perfectly fit body. After her swim she got up and went to the dining area where she is served breakfast by their house helps.

"Manang Eba, where's papa? Won't he join me for breakfast?" She asked their Mayor Doma.

"Naku baby girl. He left early. Mukang may business meeting na naman sya." She answered.

She sighed and looked down on my food: fresh orange, french toast and egg.

I wonder when will my father say something he'll do when it comes to spending time with me.  She thought.

Manang Eba saw the sour face of their princess, so she tried to cheer her up.

"Baby girl, don't be sad, babawi rin si papa mo." She said.

"Hay Manang. It's okay. I'm used him forgetting stuffs." She said trying to smile. "Can you ask Anna my schedule for today?" She said changing the topic.

Manang Eba called Anna and asked her to go to the dining so she could talk to the princess about her schedule for the day.

"Good morning, Ms. Geronimo." Anna, her personal assistant, greeted.

"Yuck! Anna, how many times would I tell you that you should just call me Sarah, or Asher, or Sars..."

"Or Baby girl..." interrupted by Manang Eba

"Yah that too." She giggled. "Just don't call me Ms. Geronimo. It's a big no-no." Sarah said.

"Sorry po Ms-- uh.. Sarah. I'm not used to it." her PA apologized.

"Then get used to it." Sarah said seriously then she smiled again. "So, what is my schedule today?"

"Uh, you have an inspirational talk at 11:30 AM in De La Salle University. Then you'll have a late lunch meeting at 1PM with the Sales Executive of Coca Cola Philippines. Then at 3PM you have a photoshoot for your endorsement for Nescafe. Then at 6PM you have a board meeting with your father." 

"Oh, great, another busy day." mumbled Sarah.

 She finishes her breakfast with a fake smile. She tries to joke around their house helps, but people can still notice the sadness through her eyes. She is the heir of the Geronimo clan, and as expected she should be able to perform in the business as good as her father. However, every night, she always pray to Papa God that one day, when she falls in love, she wishes that someone would make her feel loved and needed. She also prays that one day, her father would allow her to show the world her love for music.

Up in the heaven's above...

Everybody is happy. Everybody is filled with love. Everybody is contented with life.

"Senyor Billy Joe." a little angel bowed and greeted his boss.

"Oh, Zaijan. What's our schedule for today?" asked Billy Joe, the big boss of love in heaven.

Zaijan looked at his notes and recited it to his boss. "Uhm, we've got two love birds going to be wed. Two couples breaking up. And there's two future couple meeting up today."

"Hmm. That's interesting. Who are the future couple?" 

"Ah, it's Gerald Randolph Anderson and Sarah Asher Geronimo, boss." Zaijan said happily.

"Oh, finally, I've been looking forward at their meeting.They are the most awaited couple here in heaven." 

"I know, I'm excited too Boss." 

"Prepare the popcorns and the comfy chairs. We're going to have a blockbuster event today." Billy Joe instructed.

"Ayay Boss!"
