PROLOGUE

"ONCE UPON A TIME"...

Admit it. Kapag naririnig mo ang mga salitang 'yan ay nag-eexpect ka ng isang storya at syempre, mag-tatapos ito sa "AND THEY LIVED HAPPILY EVER AFTER"...

Stories always happen that way. Well, maybe sometimes not.

But to tell you honestly? I never believed in those lines nor will I ever.

Mas naniniwala pa ako sa mga salitang "THE END"...

Lahat kasi ng bagay, totoong may katapusan.

Pero ang maniwala sa pamumuhay ng masaya habam-buhay?! THAT'S INSANE!

She was once MY PRINCESS and turned out to be MY QUEEN.

I didn't realize those things until our "THE END" HAD CAME TO HAPPEN.

REALIZATION cuts me like a knife.

REGRETTION gives me suicide.

But our memories keep me going.

OUR TREASURE GIVES ME STRENGTH TO HOLD ON.

OUR ONE AND ONLY TREASURE, MY LIFE - OUR LIVES.

And it all ended there - when I told her, "I'LL CARRY YOU TO HEAVEN"

Chapter 1

*The Happy Ever After*

"And they lived happily ever after..." She closed the book as I saw Jasper already asleep.

Naka-tayo ako sa pintuan ng kwarto ni Jasper habang binabasahan siya ng Mommy niya ng isang fairytale. Ewan ko ba kung bakit kailangan pa 'yun, samantalang lalaki naman si Jasper.

Tinignan lang ako ni Jasmine na nag-sisimula nang iayos ang kumot ni Jasper.

Nang matapos siya ay lumapit siya sa akin at hinalikan ako sa pisngi.

"Shall we?" She said happily.

I just nodded.

Hindi ko talaga alam kung paano sisimulan ang kanina ko pa gustong sabihin sa kanya.

We went through our room. I went to the bed at sumandal sa headboard.

She clings to me like she wants something to happen.

Pero ayoko. Ayokong may mangyari pa dahil marami pa ring bumabagabag sa isipan ko.

"I'm tired."

"You want a massage?" She said, teasing.

"No. Pagod lang talaga ako. Gusto ko nang matulog."

Hindi na siya nag-salita. Instead, tinalikuran niya ako.

Maybe that's better. Mas makakapag-isip ako.

Nang maramdaman kong natutulog na siya, I opened the brown envelope on top of the side table.
