"Baby, you do not have to do this". when Mommy visited me in my room.

"Mommy, Daddy is gone and as the eldest I am responsible for you and Tara. Let me do this." I held her hand tightly.

"But you do not love him. We can also learn to live simply. We can also get up even if you do not marry Wayne.

I want you to be happy, with the person you love ". Mommy caressed my face.

"Maybe the person I will love won't come. Because I've been waiting for so long. Maybe I will learn to love Wayne too, especially when we're married". I felt sad for what I said.

I am Tosca Aljandre, the eldest child of Rico and Tanya Aljandre.

I have another sister who is younger than me, Tara - she is in her second year of college.

Here we go again, it is about age again, go ahead, I am 29 years old. My dad just died last year so we haven't totally recovered yet. I must admit, we come from a well -to -do family. But since Daddy disappeared, we have almost lost everything as well.

So I feel sorry for my mommy and sister. They are not accustomed to hard life. I'm also not used to it but I'm gradually coming to accept that we're not as rich as before.

And little by little I am also embracing the responsibility that Daddy left me.

Asking who is Wayne? Who? Ahhh he is the son of Governor Randolf Ventura. That's where I work at the Capitol, that's where I met Wayne.

He is trying to court me. But the truth is, I don't like him. He is not the man I want to be with forever.

My other lovers have backed out. Frightened of Governor's son. There is arrogance. The height of self -esteem. But what he promised me was beautiful and acceptable.

This will help not only for mommy but also for Tara. So I thought hard! I will accept! We are bankrupt. I am the only one with a job.

So I thought that I might be right to accept his marriage offer.

Yes, marriage!

His offers are too strong. He really wants to marry me. And I also know one of the reasons - he wanted to make me a decoration and display.

He wants almost all men to be jealous of him because of he has a beautiful fiance and that's gonna be me. Haha, I'm sorry, I'm just kidding.

I don't lift my own bench but I know that's what Wayne is after.

"Cousin, are you sure about that? How's Mr. Right?" when I met my cousin who is also my bestfriend Sasha after work.

"I do not have any other choice. It's for Mommy and Tara.

Then maybe Mr. Right won't come. I have had a few years to believe in a happy ending". I sighed.

"Eh, Wayne is still super proud. He is trying to buy all of us for us to allow your marriage. I really can't bet him for you.

I hope Mr. Right comes right away so that you can believe in the happy ending again before everything is too late." Sasha seemed to be dreaming about her reaction.

"Maybe Wayne is Mr. Right, Sasha. I will help him change". I stared at the emptiness.

Who will know that our decision is right until we see the result?

So I will push for marrying Wayne. I no longer think of my happiness but of my family's happiness.

I wish the goodlife for them because my parents never neglected me when I was still in school.

I was ready to learn to love Wayne. I'm also ready to change him to be the right person for me.

For a long time I didn't have a boyfriend, I never thought I'd fall for someone I don't really love.

That is really hard to imagine.

It's making me feel sad and bad.

I have to do this --- not just for myself but for my family's sake too.
