"Natatakot ako sa magiging sagot." He slowly faced me and I saw different emotions in his eyes. And fear . . . is one of them. "Natatakot akong makita kung hanggang saan ka dadalhin ng inggit at kasakiman mo." Right. Greed and envy. Mabuti na lang, hindi ako tanga sa buhay. That was the last time that I acted greedily, the last moment that I let envy rule me over.

sagot agad ni Lolo. "Ang inggit na tao ay hindi kontento sa kung ano meron siya, walang tiwala sa sarili, mas pinairal ang inggit sa katawan. Mas nakatuon pa sa blessings ng iba kaysa sa sarili niyang mga blessings. Envy is a coward's side of hate and jealousy is a disease that cannot be cured anymore! It's dangerous," komento rin ni Lola.

We can get everything we desire. But for me, material wealth is superficial. The reality is that no one can have everything. Maybe they envy me because of my money, but if only they knew how lonely I am despite all the luxury, they would understand that life is not about money and whims. It's about what you are feeling inside.

Gusto lang naman niyang mahalin din siya, gusto niya lang din namang mabigyan ng atensyon ng hindi na siya gumagawa ng kahit ano para mapansin. She became like this because of envy, masyado siyang naging mahina at palagi niyang tinitingnan ang mga naibibigay ng mga magulang niya sa kapatid niya kahit na marami rin namang naibibigay sa kaniya ang mga magulang niya. At lalong hindi niya matanggap na ang taong minahal niya simula pagkabata ay hindi na siya makilala, hindi pa siya ang minahal at iba ang pinakasalan.

She sighed and took a sip on her drink. "I kinda felt envious that time. Seeing a guy like you being like that to that girl. I was like, sana ako din merong ganong boyfriend. Then my envy became an obsession... I began to like you instead of wanting a guy like you. So ayon, napagtanto ko na nagkagusto ako sayo kaso may girlfriend ka noon eh."

She saw envy in other people's eyes when they see her new bags or new toys, but it didn't make her happy, rather, it made her pity herself more. She envies those smiles these people have when their parents are there to support them. She envies those laughs and proud moments these families have shared together. Those were priceless memories that she couldn't buy with all her saved money in her bank accounts. Her credit cards could only afford to buy her temporary happiness – things that depreciate over time. She has longed for that attention and love from other people, but instead, they paid her kindness with betrayal. It scarred her heart. It broke her trust. It changed her.

It was a scene ripped from a fairytale, a perfect family portrait that mocked my own desolate existence. A bitter taste flooded my mouth. Envy, sharp and corrosive, ate away at me. It wasn't just the wealth, the sprawling mansion, the effortless grace of their lives. It was the love, the genuine, unadulterated affection that bound them together. Something I had never known, something I craved with a ferocity that bordered on madness.
