“Your name is Angelique Elizalde. You're Twenty One; Born in Paris, France. Lanie Schulz-Elizalde and Richard Elizalde are your Parents. Ikaw ang Immediate Heir Ng Elizalde Group of Companies; A multi-billion dollar company. You also graduated with a 4.0 GPA in a prestigious Academy..”
Those words echoed inside Angelique's head. It was when a Doctor told her about herself— not an everyday occurrence for normal people, she hopes.
Malawak na Kwarto, At matatayog na gusali ang tanging nakikita n'ya mula sa Kinatatayuan. Alam n'yang sa labas ng pinto; Sa sala man, O sa hallway ay maraming taong nakapaligid upang bantayan at protektahan s'ya. Hindi s'ya nagiisa..
But why does she feel empty?
Bakit tila ba mayroong kirot sa puso n'ya? Mayroon ring bumabagabag sakan'yang isip, Ngunit hindi n'ya mahinuha kung ano..
Napapatunayan mula kay Angelique na madali mang makalimot ang isip, Ngunit mahirap linlangin ang puso.
Ang puso ng isang taong nagmahal, At nais magmahal pa ng lubos..

“Boss?” Takang pagtawag ni Rebecca kay Acher, ng mapansin n'yang tila ba lumilipad ang isip nito.
Napatigil nga si Archer. Habang pinagmamasdan n'ya ang nakatabi sa isang sulok na singsing. It was a ring with intricate and expensive band. Nagiisa lamang ito sa buong mundo.
It was his wedding ring. The one he wore when he swore, Infront of the church and infront of the people; That he will only love, cherish and protect her.
His heart throbbed for some unknown reason. It seems like it's calling out for someone desperately.
“Let the Elizalde's do whatever they want.” Muli, Ito ang katagang binitawan ni Archer. Same monotonous voice. Same bored expression. Same words; carrying dismissal, Making the people who hear it flinch.
Rebecca bows resignedly. “Yes Boss. I'll refer their request to your Lawyers.”
Archer closes the small box. He nonchalantly signs his signature in the Paper, Labelled as a; ‘DIVORCE AGREEMENT’.
Mula ngayon, Putol na ang ugnayan nila bilang Mag-asawa.
