Some people are just meant to be despised. Someone has to play that part. At nakakalungkot mang tanggapin, baka isa ako sa mga iyon. Matagal ko nang inihanda ang sarili na tanggapin iyon. Sa mundong ito, ang pagmamahal at pagtanggap ay para lamang sa iilang maswerte. Hindi para sa mga katulad ko. Di ko na kailangan pang pangarapin ang pag-ibig at pagyakap dahil bata pa lamang ako ay alam ko nang hindi 'yon para sakin. It was already dictated from the very beginning. It was written in my palms, and inscribed in my fate. It is like a curse people throw at me. Like a prayer they utter to the heavens and they write on the stars. That's just how the current goes, that's how the river flows. Who am I to dare go against it?
