Victoria's POV ( Vincent's Mom)

I'm so happy na naka uwi na ang kapatid ni Vincent. Kanina nung tinawagan ko si Vince his voice seems to be happy but I know hes just pretending.

Since they were a kid they always argue. They always fight like they are not brothers.

I understand what Vincent feels naman. He's jelous because we always care for his brother more than we care for him but his mistaken. We care for them both, we love them both. Walang nakakahigit sa kanilang dalawa. At walang kahit isa sa kanila na maiaalis ang pagmamahal namin sa kanilang magkapatid.

It all started when they were 4 years old. Its the time where we discovered that his little brother has a disease. Yes! He is older than his brother but his acting like hes younger. That time we put our attension at his brother Ashton but we never failed to care for Vince too.

When they reach grade five Ashton's disease came back that's why we need to take him to States cause thats the place where there are a lot of doctors that can help and cure his disease.

We left Vincent with his Tita here in the Philippines. His Tita is the sister of my husband. He tought we left him because we dont want him to be with us but he doest know that his brother has a disease and we need to bring him to the best doctors.

We stayed there for almost 1 1/2 year. Until one day I decided to go home. I wanted to attend Vincent's graduation. I wanted to fullfill my promise that I will be the one to accompany him going up the stage and recieve his diploma.

I was ready to go back at the Phillipines but when I arrive at the airport in States, I recieve a call from my husband. He told me that Ashton was rushes at the ICU cause his not breathing anymore. My world seems to crush when I heard what he say. I immedietly rush at the hospital without thinking that Vincent was waiting for my return.

Months have passed but I'm still here in States. Ashton's case never gets normal thats why I dont have time to go back to the Philippines and visit my other child.

He's already in high school and I'm really proud when his tita told me that he graduated as one of the best student in their school. At that moment I was happy and at the same time sad. I really expect that Vincent will be the one to call me and share to me all thoose stuff but I'm wrong, that time he hated me. He hated me for the reason that I broke my promise to him.

Starting that day he never talk to me. He always ignore my calls and messages. And also that time his tita told me that he's starting to be a rebel. He goes home late. He dont attend some of his classes. He's always with his friend. And the worst thing he doesnt care about his studies anymore.

I decided to go bact to the Philippines and left Ashton with his Dad. Ashton is unconcious the time that I left States. I know his father would explain everything. And I know that he will understand me.

Nobody fetches me when I arrive at the airport. Even if I badly wanted to be fetch by Vince, I know it would not happen cause his mad at me.

I confirm that he's really mad at me when I got home. He dont talk to me nor give me attensyon. Its ok to me but what hurts me the most is when he say this words.

'Umuwi ka pa! Dun na ka na lang sana sa ibang bansa at magpakasaya kasama yung pamilya mo at hindi iniisip na may naiwang anak dito sa Pilipinas. Buti pa si tita nandito para suportahan ako. From the day that you broke your promise, your already out of my life. Tita is now my new mom. She deserve to be my mom. Siya yung nag aalaga at umiintindi sa akin nung wala ka VICTORIA!"

I understand what he felt that time. Imagine! Being left by your parents without knowing the real reason why. Broking the only promise that he made with you. Forgetting you for about 2 years and now they are coming back.
