Jare's pov:
The plane landed smooth like butter. I already bought Mia a private Condo. I can't keep her around. Meeting her in secret would already be a big trouble....But.....Jay.
She didn't utter a word since she got on the plane till now. All she did was stare at the window. Everytime I ask her, try, speak to her. She shrugs with a smile.
But still her gaze lands on the window. They really meant a lot huh?
So much she even lost her appetite.
Our brother...he was good for nothing. Couldn't even protect her. It was the only thing I asked him. Yet, he showed disappointment and miserably failed us.
Mia and interlocked our hands. Percy randomly blabbering about stuff that both Mia and I were not listening to because our gaze was only fixed on her...
Jay.

Jay's pov:
The plane landed. I physically landed perfect. My mind was not here it was with him. I lost my appetite. Every food either felt tasteless or bland even after adding too much salt. Maybe, salt wasn't the problem my mind was.
I tried listening to music, trying to sleep but,
EVERY!
SINGLE!
GOD DAMN!
THING!
Went to him. Went to them like it belonged. Which annoyed me.
I really want to trust he used me. But....his way of showing care said otherwise. Even if I'm this far why does my mind replay him.
Does he still...love ella?
Or freya...?
Why does it feel like he do.
Jare...and percy. These two annoying kuyas of mine kept bickering. One self-obsessed. Another.....chaos just like me.
The moment I landed in philippines I thought I wouldn't have any friends...But them. They were truly one of a kind. And the person I loved....Both Jason and Keifer...their the same leaving me. Why do I always end up loving jerks?
Is my taste that in men bad or something?
One disappeared the other used me.
Wow. Feels so good to be used as a pawn.
Every moment that we all shared. Shared with him. It all was fake. Love didn't hurt but friendship did. ci-n and felix's silence did.
ci-n a child that I cared just like Dane. When he said his family didn't care I did. I became his friend. We were ST. Were....Past tense. He said I was like his...sister.
Was it all a lie?
Then Felix, my step-brother because of Percy somehow. I knew he was my brother. Got him into basketball like he deserved, he had potential. Took him as my own brother. yet his silence and betrayal still hurts.
Finally keifer, The man I loved. Too much. Gave my soul only to be used as a pawn for revenge against my own brother who I had been suggesting my entire life.....
A flirt huh?
coming from you hurted the most keifer....
Percy and Jare tried to distract but all they got was a nod from me constantly. eventually, they gave up.
We arrived at the Mariano mansion.
Well now at least I had one reason to be happy. To see mama, papa and Dane.
Perfect time to make it up for his birthday.
The maids greeted us to through our way, the mansion as always was buzz with frequent work. I heard laughing, chattering. Not the voices of 3 but voices of.....eight all at once.
And the person who I saw was unexpected....
Seems he arrived before I did...
how?
