I mourned for my love.
I mourned for his death.
I mourned for Romeo Montecillo.
Limang taon na rin ang lumipas simula nong pagsisihan ko ang araw na hindi ko nasabi sakanyang mahal ko siya.
Throughout those year, I regret choosing to keep what I truly feel for him. Maiksi nga talaga ang buhay nating mga tao. We don't know when will be the time for our death.
It's not his fault. It was mine.
Kasalanan kong hindi ko nasabi ang tunay kong nararamdaman. Kasalanan kong hinintay ko pang mahuli ang lahat at pagsisihan ang mga iyon. Andami kong pagkakataon na pwedeng sabihin sakanya pero sinayang ko ang mga oras na yun.
You're my dear Romeo. And I am your Juliet. We are in this tragic love story. We didn't even had the chance to start our happy ending.
Sa limang taon na iyon. Nagpasya akong pumunta ng America para ipagpatuloy ang pag-aaral ko sa Architecture.
Limang taon akong nagluksa bago ko nakayang ilet go ang masakit na karanasan. I know, Romeo will not be happy for me if I'll just stop here, mourning for his death. Pero hindi pa rin maiaalis na sa tuwing may naaalala ako ay nagsisimula na namang kumirot itong puso.
Romeo saved me. But I was too late to save you.
I thought we can go somewhere where we can be alone. But here I am, grieving for you have left me alone.
I keep on waiting. Waiting, that someday you and me will have the chance to reborn again and meet to continue our story.
I'm sorry if I have to let go.
Letting go of the love that once made me very special. The same love that made me live with regrets.
But I didn't know, after these years, your love made me to live happily again.

"Gosh, besh. Ito na yun! I'm very happy for you. I really thought tatanda ka ng dalaga" pangaasar ng isang Violet Guererro.
Haven't I mentioned? She's already married with my brother. Having a perfect family with two lovingly kids. I am happy that they already have their happy ending.
"Babe naman, wag mo asarin yang si Sandra. Tignan mo na ngang naiiyak na. Sisirain mo pa yung make-up niya eh"
Biglang nagpout tong kaibigan ko. Batukan ko kaya to. She's already a mom but she's acting like a child too. My brother is now a successful engineer, handle niya rin ang ibang businesses ni papa. My bestfriend? She's a chef now! Nakapagpatayo na din sila ng limang restaurant dito sa Pilipinas. Tipong isa'sanaol' ko na lang.
When I was in America. I became less communicative with them. Alam kong naiintindihan nila ang pinagdadaanan ko. I live na patuloy na sinisisi ang sarili ko. Patuloy na dala-dala ang masaya at masakit na pagmamahal ni Romeo. But throughout the years, there's someone who made me feel to be happy again. Someone who reminded me of the love of Romeo.
Alam kong kahit anong gawin ko hindi ko parin siya makakalimutan. Na hindi pa rin maaalis ang pangalan niya sa puso ni Cassandra Ramirez.
I look at myself in the mirror. Looking pretty as it is.
Wearing a white dress.
I thought this will never happen. I dream of walking on the altar, getting married to the guy who saved me from my pains. But indeed, it is tragic.
