Sheianna Scarlett Montolla

"What are you trying to do Gigi?"

"What do you mean?"

"You're trying to ruin my image."

"Hindi ako ganun klaseng tao Shei if that's what you are thinking. Anong klase kang babae? He didn't know that you're not a med-tech? May karapatan siyang malaman ang lahat. He loves you. I can see it in his eyes. He's sincere."

"It's not yet the right time."

"When's the right time Shei? Tell me. Concerned lang ako sa iyo kasi alam ko ang nararamdaman mo."

"Anong alam mo sa nararamdaman ko?"

"I took the board exam twice. You're now aware of that right? Ganyan din ako noon kagaya mo. But I tried and work hard para makapasa ako for the second time in nursing. Because I want to help and serve people especially my parents. Para ako ang mag-aalaga at manggagamot sa kanila and I succeeded. I told to my parents about that, they still accept me. There's nothing wrong with it. It's just a part of struggle. Huwag mong hintayin na dumating ang araw na may ibang tao magsasabi sa kanya about you."

"H-hindi ko kaya baka umayaw siya."

"He can accept you like what he has said a while back. Mahal ka niya. Don't tell me na pera lang ang habol mo sa kanya?" I froze in an instant.

"H-hindi ah."

"Bahala ka basta I already gave an advice to help you. See you around." I nodded.

She then left.

Basta I'll still gonna continue my plan. This is not just for me but for my family and for my future children. Ayokong maranasan nila ang hirap sa mundo. I want them to live a decent, peaceful and comfortable life.

I hope na walang magsasabi or may makaalam sa plano ko. Wala akong pakialam sa sinasabi ng ibang tao. This is the only way I know.

I'm tried of having a poor life. Ang dami kayang problema ng mga mahihirap. Financial problem is the biggest and common problem. Without money hindi kami mabubuhay dahil pera na ang nagpapaikot sa buhay ng isang tao.

I couldn't afford to see my family suffer again kagaya noong bata pa ako. Whenever I get sick laging umuutang ang parents ko para may pambayad lang kami. But things work really well because we already paid them dahil sa pagiging janitress ko.

Sobrang hirap ng ganitong buhay but I need to for us to eat and live. Mahal na mahal ko din si Arthur. I hope when the time comes, sana mapatawad niya ako. Mapatawad ako ng pamilya niya.
