46 THANK YOU!

Dear Readers,

First, I want to thank every one of you who had been with me on this journey. To show you my appreciation, I would like to tell you a little bit about myself. Many of you already know that I'm Filipino.

So, here goes my story.

Caution: My story is a little sad, but have a happy ending.????

My family originated from two parts of the Philippines. Antique and Leyte. However, I was born and raised in Rizal Province in Manila. I have many siblings. When I say many I'm not joking, it's the truth.

My Father ????(God bless his soul) is a philanderer. Before he finally got shot-gun, wedding to my Mother,???? (God bless her soul as well) he already had Seven different (Panganay) 'Oldest child' from different mothers.

To make a very. Very. Long story short, ( You never know, I might write my story in the future) we often had to go without many things. While other children road Tricycle (Motorcycle with a sidecar) to school, I had to walk. There were times that I went to school without [Baon] Allowance and lunch to eat. That's how destitute my family were.

But you know what? It never prevented me from wanting to learn; it made me more determine to get an education to have a brighter future.

I guess due to my circumstances during that time; I started making all kinds of make-believe story in my mind and lived in that fantasy world. I did that since young and still do now. Whenever I'm struggling or unhappy about anything. I go to my fantasy world and stay there until I feel better and ready to live back in the real world.

Not lifting my own Bangko (chair) during elementary school, I always scored the highest in the test. Especially, Reading and Writing. 'Tagalog' subject only ok!

Now you all know where I get my passion for writing. When I write, I'm in my fantasy world. In this world, all of you are part of it. When you read what I write, praise or critics how bad my writing is, I feel it all. I get sad, happy, and overjoy. Lot's and lots of emotion, in which I pour into my story.

The overwhelming emotion that surged to my being is unexplainable in word nor writing when I first posted my very first draft. It felt like when I had my first puppy love, turned crush, and as I got older, it became the first love, then falling-in-love.

I was bursting with happiness when I saw that someone read what I wrote. It was a very long tiring day at work, and I needed a boost of anything to keep me going. During my lunch break, I checked my stat and: "Oh! My God! I almost choke from the pork adobo I was chewing. I got more than one thousand people reading my first chapter. I was shocked and thrilled at the same time. Unbelievable! To have these many people read what I write. I was dumbfounded

Unfortunately, I'm just like everyone else in this world. Has many responsibilities on my shoulder and have much priority over my passion for writing. I do have to make a living so I can provide for my family and they can live a better life than when I was young.

I want to write as much I can because life in this fantasy world is so beautiful. I can make it. However, I want it to be. On top of that, I am journeying with many friends along with me. "All my readers."

Now here we are together writing our story, living in our fantasy world to get out of this mundane reality. I hope and pray that when this novel become Premium that everyone will continue the journey with me. Please, keep your support! Let's live in our fantasy world where we can be whatever we want to be.

Once again, I want to thank each and everyone who had been with me on my journey from the bottom of my heart!

I sincerely hope that everyone continues this journey with me as I get better in my telling stories. Rest assured that I have many more stories to tell in the future.
