that was until she was wedded to her 'beloved' Alfonzo, whom my parents promised he was the best for her...
The waves are too calm to feel how my heart aches and longs to not be here anymore as tomorrow is my wedding day...
As I watched the a waves roar calmly across the sea, I couldn't help but remember when my older sister, Maria and I were close. We had always dreamed of being married and living happily and free since we were young...
I cannot wait to be wedded and have a life in which I'm free to do what like and decorate how I like!!

trying to convince papa and mama was useless to be as our family had no sons, so us daughters had to socially rise...

I can't help but feel betrayed and angry as I am scared to have a marriage in which I end up like my sister; unhappy and alone.

I crawled into my bed laid there while awaiting for my wedding to finally to come....
