The 10 Year Gap synopsis
I once gave my trust and love to one person. But what happened? I was only used and hurt.
Since that day, I vowed to never trust anyone again. I vowed to never let anyone have the chance to hurt me again.
Until Paulo came.
Despite my efforts to push him away, he stayed. Bit by bit, he melted the icy chambers of my frozen heart. Just like how the sun brings warmth after a long winter. And just like that, I broke the promise I made to myself. I loved Paulo, and he loved me too.
We're going to be together and we're going to fulfill our promises to each other, and build a happy family. Everything was already planned out. But now that I'm happy, why did destiny decide to go the other way?
I am Angeline Cruzette Sy. This is the story of our love.
Read The 10 Year Gap – Chapter 1
I came from a very rich family. And because I was the only child, I could easily get what I wanted. Kapag may gusto ako, nakukuha ko agad. Hindi ko na kailangan pang magsabi nang dalawang beses. They would always give me everything my heart and eyes desired. Maybe that was the only way they knew to express their love and care for me.
My mom and dad were both busy with our business ever since I was little. Palagi silang wala sa tabi ko. I did not even remember any good memories wherein they were both by my side. Mas marami pa silang oras na ginugugol sa pag-aasikaso ng mga business namin rather than taking care of me. That was why they poured their love through material things I asked from them. They thought that the most expensive things in the world were enough to fulfill their duties as my parents.
I was aware that everybody around me hated me so much. They often called me names behind my back—spoiled brat, sutil, masamang ugali, demonyita, and so on. But I did not really care about the things they said about me. People who talk behind your back are worse than trash. Hindi ko naman sila masisisi kung gano’n ang tingin nila sa akin kung gumagawa ako ng mga paraan para mapaalis sila sa mansiyon.
Habang lumalaki ako, gumagawa ako ng mga kalokohan para isa-isang mawala ang mga katulong at guards sa mansiyon. Nandiyan iyong susunugin ko ang mga damit nila; bubuhusan ko sila ng juice sa mukha; maglalagay rin ako ng mga palaka sa maids’ quarter at magkakalat kahit kalilinis lang. I know, cruel as it may seem, pero `yon lang ang alam kong paraan para makuha ang atensiyon ng mga magulang ko.
