Roxanne POV

"Mom what is this all about?" I whispered.

"I want you to meet Mr. Ian De Vera."

"Hi Roxanne,your so pretty even in personal." He said,I just smile a bit.

"By the way where is your son?"Mom asked Mr. Ian.

He's on his way."Mr.Ian replied.

Habang tinitignan ko silang Dalawa,Hindi ko ma iwasan na mapakunot ng noo,at parang may Hindi sila sinasabi sakin.

"His here."

Napalingon ako ka agad sa pinto 'at nakita ko ang isang gwapong nilalang,Hindi ko siya makilala sa suot niyang glasses.

"Roxanne,meet Ice 'my son,soon to be your future husband."

I was literally surprised by what Mr. Ian said,and I looked at mom badly.

"Is t-this a j-joke?"

"No xanne,this is not."

I chuckled a bit,at tinignan mula ulo hanggang paa si Ice.Mukhang masama nga ugali nito,sa pananamit,at pag aakto niya pa,alam na alam mo na masungit talaga.

"Are you all done?"Ice coldly said.

Hinila ko naman si mom palayo sa kanila,binitawan naman ako ni mom at nag titigan kami ngayon.

"Mom,what about Lawrence?"

"Hindi kayo bagay ni Lawrence! Roxanne,listen to me.Dadating na yung dad mo,at kapag nakita niya na may boyfriend kang nasa huli ng mayaman,ipapa patay niya yun! Para naman to sayo 'at sa kanya,sa totoo lang ayaw ko din sa kanya,kasi mapapahamak lang siya.So please,listen to me."

"No,I won't listen to you,I don't want that man!love is not all about personality,the looks,the money,or where they came from." I shouted,and then I walked out.

Kahit kailan Hindi ko sinisigawan si mom,pero ngayon,na 'nalaman ko na 'Hindi niya pala gusto si Lawrence para sakin,nagawa ko na siyang sigawan.

Lawrence is my first love,my first boyfriend,my everything.If I lost him,I will end my life.

Pumasok ako sa kwarto at padabog na humiga,nagsimula na di'ng tumulo ang mga luha ko. Why is this happening to me? I'm a good child! Wala naman akong ginawang masama sa kapwa ko,pero bakit pinaparusahan ako?

"Roxanne,open the door!"Mom shouted,and knocking to my door.

I didn't respond,I ignored mom and I took the pillow and put it in my ear.Mom doesn't understand me,she always care of the money and dad also.

I just want some peaceful life with Lawrence,Lawrence is my type.he is gentle man,caring,I love him more than my life.I will just forget what happened today.and and act normal.

Siguro naman,di papapatay ni dad si Lawrence,ako talaga ang papatay sa sarili ko kapag nalaman ko na pinatay nila si Lawrence. Ok,tama yan,matutulog na lang ako at makakalimutan ko din ang mga nangyari ngayon.

my eyes widened because of the sunlight hitting my face from the window.I got up immediately and washed my face in the bathroom, I looked at myself in the mirror and started crying, I don't know why I was crying,is it because of what Mr. Ian said last night?I shook my head and took a bath, after I took a bath I wore a croptop and high ways short.

"Ma'am Roxanne,maaga po'ng umalis si Ma'am baka may gusto po kayong pagawa,nandito lang po kami."

"I don't need anything,just cook me some dinner,because I will be back at the evening."

"Yes ma'am."

manang left, and I also took my car key and left the room, I immediately got in my car and turned it on, I dedial Lawrence's number,and he answered it.

"Hubby where are you?"

"Im here at home,susunduin pa lang kita,why?"

"don't pick me up, I'm going to school, just go straight there."

"Ok,got it."

Enend call ko ka agad at pinatay yung phone ko,ng maka rating nako sa school nakikita ko na yung mga bata sa labas,matutulog at nilalamok.
Pinark ko yung kotse ko sa gilid at kinuha yung kahon na puno ng mga gamit.

"Hello mga bata,ako to si ate Roxanne,ibibigay ko Sana sa inyo to'ng mga damit ko,Sana magustohan niyo." I said then give them the box,kinuha naman nila yun at Binuksan,masaya silang pumipili ng mga damit at sinusuot yun,napangiti naman ako.

"Hello kids! I'm Lawrence,your ate Roxanne's boyfriend,May dala akong mga pagkain dito ohh"

Napatingin ako kay Lawrence at lahat ng bata pumunta sa kanya at nanghingi ng mga pagkain,ngumiti lang ako habang tinitignan silang lahat.

"Kuya,ang swerte niyo po kay ate Roxanne,napaka bait na nga maganda pa." Sabi ng isang bata,napatingin naman si Lawrence sakin at ngumiti,nginitian ko din siya at lumapit sa kanya.

I hugged him tight and he kiss me in my forehead,he never kiss me in my lips,because he said he will do they when we will get married.He is so sweet always.

"Ayiee."

"Oh,ito pa,zest'o,kumuha kayo dito,marami pa."

"Ito para sayo."Lawrence said,and he give me an engagement ring.My eyes suddenly wide,at napatakip naman ako ng bibig ko,I'm crying.
Pina suot niya naman sakin yun at niyakap ko siya ka agad,pinunasan niya naman yung luha ko,napa iyak nako sa sorry saya.

"Don't cry Roxanne."

"I can't stop crying,is this true? We will get married?"

"Yes,I want you to be my queen,my life,my everything."

Hinigpitan ko yung pag kaka yakap sa kanya sa sobrang saya ng nadarama ko,ngayon 'Hindi na kami mag hihiwalay at Hindi na matutuloy yung plano ni mom.I will follow my heart,this is my love 'Lawrence,my fiance.

"This ring is expensive,you afford it?"

"Oo naman,para sayo."

I smiled and kiss he's chick,we are here in the restaurant,dito kami mag cecelebrate,and I already told manang na Hindi ako makakauwi ng maaga.

"Ma'am,sir ano po yung oorderin niyo?"

"Roxanne,anong gusto mo?"
Tumingin ako sa menu at nakita ko yung favorite na pagkain ko.

"Mine is,steak."

"And you sir?"

"Steak din."

Umalis na yung waiter at tinitignan ko parin yung sing sing ko,ang ganda niya talaga,yung bato niya ang laki,kaya malalaman mo na mamahalin yun.Nanggaling din ako sa mayayamang pamilya.kaya alam ko yung 'mga mamahalin at hindi.nasa second kami ng mga mayayaman,nangunguna naman ang De vera family.kaya gusto ni Mom na magpakasal ako sa Ice na yun.para mas lalo na makapang yarihan.si Lawrence naman nasa top 10 siya sa mayayaman,pero Hindi parin siya gusto ni mom.

"Nagustohan mo at a yung sing sing mo at Hindi mo na ako pinapansin."
Napabalik ako sa realidad ng magsalita si Lawrence.

"Hindi naman sa ganun,may na alala lang ako."

"So anong plano? Kailan tayo e kakasal?"

"I think mga February 14,gusto ko sa araw ng mga puso."Tumango naman siya at kinuha yung kamay ko at hinalikan.

"Pwede naman." He said then he smile.I smiled at him too.

Nagulat kaming lahat ng may mga lalaking dumating na naka sakay sa motor,at yung motor niya alam na alam ko,it's limited edition,that cost a 100 billion.I think mga mayayaman to,at kasali sila sa top 10 na mga mayayaman.
I cry when I saw Lawrence chest is bleeding,I just realized that he was the target,before they're leaving that guy who killed Lawrence look at me.When they're gone I hold Lawrence hands and started crying harder.

"Lawrence stay with me! I don't want to lose you!" I said with painfully.

"Someone help me!" I shouted then look at Lawrence face.

"R-Roxanne I'm okay"." He said and hold my hand.I shook my head and hugged him.

"No,no you're not okay!I will bring you to the hospital."

"It's alright,I love you more than my life,so please,made our dream come true,I will gonna miss--."I cut him.

"No! No! You'll never die!"

"Somebody help us!"I shouted again.

"Roxanne listen to me."I stopped shouting and look at Lawrence.

"Don't cry,when I'm gone,don't cry if you remember me,don't cry if anyone bullies you,because I don't want to see you cry anymore,I want you to be happy,This is my fate,my life will end here,I was happy to meet you,thank you for the 4 years of your love.I will gonna miss you,good bye."

My life,my love,my everything.He is now gone,just for my one mistake,my love dies,I wish I could bring back time,and saved Lawrence,but it was just all a fantasy,I couldn't bring back time and save his life.This is all my fault! I wish I'd listen to mom,mom was right,if I just listened to him,this will not happen. Napahawak ako sa ulo ko at yung paningin ko nawawala,kapag titingin ako sa paligid nag blu-blur lahat ng nakikita ko,tapos yung puso ko sumisikip.I think I will die here,I wish 'so I will see Lawrence in heaven.
