Never in Kelsey Alena Sanchez's dream did she ever imagine herself being forced into an arranged marriage. Who would've thought that Benjamin Antonio Donovan―a man she has a cat and dog relationship with―will now be her soon-to-be husband?

Song: When The Darkness Comes- Colbie Caillat
Thoughtful
Walang emosyon kong pinapanood habang tinatabunan nila ng lupa ang kabaong ni Mommy at Daddy.
The funeral ceremony just ended. No one dared to get near me as I watch the people responsible for my parents' entombment put my parents' coffns into the grave. I crossed my arms over my chest. I gulped and clenched my jaw.
The day that I lost both of my parents is still fresh inside my mind. Everything feels like yesterday. Pilit ko mang subukan na kalimutan, hindi ko magawa. Sobrang hirap. I have no idea what to do.
It was only a ten-minute difference between my mother and father's death.
Sampung minuto ang pagitan at parehong magulang ko ang nawala at tuluyan nang nilisan ang mundo.
How do I cope up with losing both of my parents in one night?
Ni hindi man lang ako nabigyan ng panahon para makausap lang sila kahit saglit. Pagkakataon na masabi ko sakanila ang lahat ng mga bagay na hindi ko masabi noong nabubuhay pa sila.
I can still clearly remember how I screamed at the doctor when he stopped putting compressions on my father's chest. I look at him in horror.
"Why did you stop?" I asked.
I am so devastated right now and the apologetic look that he's giving me is seriously not helping.
Troy tried to stop me from raging more. Hinawakan ko ang doktor sa kanyang coat at nagmakaawa na gawan niya pa ng paraan para mabuhay si Daddy. There's still a chance, right? He's still awake a while ago! There's still a chance that he'll wake up again!
I know I don't know a thing about medicine. But miracles happen, right?
"Why did you stop?" I asked in between my tears.
"Kelsey..." alu ni Troy habang sinusubukan niya akong hilahin palayo sa doktor.
"We did everything we could, Ma'am," the doctor said. "I'm sorry for your loss."
Napabitaw ako sa doktor nang dahil doon. I wanted to scream so bad. I wanted to bring my anger out of this goddamn doctor but I can't. Masyado na akong nanghihina para gawin pa iyon.
And when I saw both of my parents' cold and lifeless body inside the morgue, that's where I stopped crying. Simula rin noon ay inipon ko ang aking mga luha sa loob loob ko kahit sobrang bigat na.
Gustong-gusto kong ilabas ang lahat ng ito pero hindi ko magawa. Alam ko na mas gusto nila Mommy at Daddy na makita akong matatag sa mga bagay na ito.
I wish had more time. More time to spend with them. More time to tell them how much I love them. More time to tell them how thankful I was for them.
