Mabilis na lumipas ang mga araw. In a snap, one week already passed since her rebirth.
At gaya ng ipinangako niya kay Calum, hindi na muling lumabas ng bahay si Serena.
She spent her time sleeping and sorting her past memories. Pinilit niyang alalahanin lahat ng nangyari sa kanyang nakaraang buhay.
She took note of all the important events and wrote them in her journal so she would not forget any of them. And instead of planning an escape, she made plans on how to counter all the traps and schemes they set up for her in her previous life.
Sa pagkakataong ito, sisiguraduhin niya na handa siya sa lahat ng pwedeng mangyari.
Nasa kalagitnaan ng pag-iisip si Serena nang biglang may kumatok sa pinto ng kanyang kwarto. Gayun pa man, hindi niya inalis ang kanyang tingin sa labas ng bintana. Mula roon, tanaw niya ang napakagandang hardin ng chateau.
In her previous life, she was always so busy trying to escape and because of that she wasn't able to appreciate this beautiful garden in the chateau.
Para sa kanya noon, isang kulungan ang lugar na ito kaya naman hindi siya kailanman nag-aksaya ng panahon na ilibot ang kanyang paningin dito.
Now that she's taking the time to look at it, she realized how beautiful it is. No wonder a lot of people dreamt to visit this place in her previous life.
Calum never failed to give her the best of everything. She never liked to admit this in the past but Calum really pamper her too much.
Hindi maiwasan ni Serena na mapangiti sa kanyang naisip.
Serena was so lost in her thoughts that she didn't notice the people standing in her door.
Nabato ang mga ito sa kanilang kinatatayuan nang makita siya. With the sun shining in her face and with that bright smile, Serena didn't know that she looked ethereal at that moment.
At dahil dito, hindi maiwasan ng mga taong nakatingin na mamangha at mabighani sa kanya ng mga oras na iyon.
Nang mabalik na ang wisyo, hindi napigilan ni Wendy na maikuyom ang kanyang mga kamay sa galit at selos dahil sa kanyang nakikita.
When did Serena become this beautiful? Wendy can't pinpoint what it is but she noticed that there is something different with Serena.
Serena had always been this beautiful but there is something so enchanting in her aura this time. Unlike before, she exudes confidence and elegance.
"Miss Serena, nandito po si Miss Wendy para bisitahin kayo." pagputol sa katahimikan nang kasambahay na naghatid kay Wendy sa kwarto ni Serena.
Serena tilted her head to look at the two people standing in her room. When she saw Wendy, she secretly sneered.
Hindi na siya nagulat nang makita si Wendy. After all she expected this.
Ganito rin ang nangyari noon sa kanyang nakaraang buhay. Wendy also visited her this exact same day then. Not with pure intentions of course but with evil schemes.
Tomorrow is her twentieth birthday. The day she will have access on all her inherited assets from her maternal family, the Montecarlo's.
Higit na mayaman ang mga Montecarlo sa mga Fajardo. Kaya naman kahit na walang pagtingin ang kanyang ama noon sa kanyang ina at kahit na may mahal na ito ng mga panahong iyon, pinakasalan parin nito ang kanyang ina.
All for the sole purpose of obtaining the riches of the Montecarlo's. Pero hindi niya inaasahan na itatakwil ng mag-asawang Montecarlo ang kanilang nag-iisang anak nang pakasalan siya nito.
Her maternal grandparents were against her mom marrying her dad. Maybe because they knew of her dad's intentions from the start so they did their best to stop the marriage but her mom was too stubborn and didn't listen.
But even though they deprive her mom of their riches, they didn't do that to Serena.
Nang mamatay ang kanyang ina, ibinuhos nila sa kanya ang kanilang buong atensyon at pagmamahal. Bago sila mamatay, tiniyak nila na magiging nasa mabuting kamay ang kanilang nag-iisang apo kapag wala na sila.
Ipinagkasundo nila si Serena upang pakasalan si Calum.
Galit na galit noon si Serena nang malaman niya iyon dahil hindi naman siya nagkulang sa pagpapahiwatig na may mahal na siyang iba ng mga panahong iyon.
Her grandparents knew that she love Marco since she was a child so she was shocked when she found out that they arranged her marriage to one of their friend's grandson.
Serena hated them then and she even rebelled but still they did everything to wed her to Calum.
Ginawa nilang isang kondisyon sa kanilang 'Last Will and Testament' na kailangan niyang pakasalan si Calum upang makuha niya ang kanyang mana mula sa kanila.
Nang malaman ng kanyang ama at stepmother ang kondisyon, ginawa nila ang lahat upang kumbinsihin si Serena na magpakasal kahit na hindi naman nila alam kung sino ang nakasaad na dapat niyang pakasalan.
And when she got all her inheritance, they tricked her and stole everything she had and gave it all to her half sister, Sabrina.
At nang makuha na nila ang lahat ng meron siya, tinapon na siya ng mga ito at kinalimutan.
Hindi maiwasang mapapikit at mapangiti ng mapait ni Serena ng maalala ang mga pangyayari sa kanyang nakaraan.
She can't help but hate herself because of how foolish she had been in her previous life. She was used thoroughly by all of them and the sad thing was, she never realized it until she was left with nothing.
Sa sobrang galit ay naikuyom niya ng napakahigpit ang kanyang mga kamay.
Sa pagkakataong ito, hindi na niya hahayaang maulit muli ang mga bagay na iyon.
This time around, I won't let you steal anything that belongs to me.
