Montenegro is one of the most popular families in Lucban City not-only because of their wealth but-also because of their kindness and generosity. Zandra is a fourteen-year-old lass and the only daughter of Mr and Mrs. Montenegro. She’s very kind and bright student at their school and studying as a first year high school student. Within the families of Montenegro, Zandra is the only girl that’s why everybody calls her an angel. Everything that she wanted was given by her parents to the extent that she was being spoiled but that not made her to become a hard-headed daughter. They never let their angel feel anything especially in emotional aspect. Her parents are very proud of her because of traits and approaches she had with other people. She’s keeping her feet on the ground despite of her being rich and intelligent.
One Sunday Morning, Montenegro family went to the church to worship God. Aside from being kind and generous, Zandra is also a God-fearing and faithful person. She never misses the worship every now and then. Upon entering the church, she felt uneasy and that made her cry. Her tears were wiped immediately so that it will not be noticed by her parents. They sat on the chairs and begin to worship God. Zandra closed her eyes—a sign that she will begin praying. She prayed with so much humility and sacred that leads her to cry.
Zandra is a cancer patient for almost two years. She undergone lot of treatments and able to be confined at a hospital for several months. Her mom requested the doctor to pull her daughter out to the hospital because she pities her daughter’s condition. Couple of days surpassed and Zandra was pulled out to the hospital. Her doctor told them that her cancer is at the severe stage that’s why it’s hard to kill the cancer cells because it doubles in a second. It’s only her mother who knows that her life will last only for a short period of time. Zandra continued her medications at the house. Even though her mom keeps silent about her condition, she knew already that there’ll be a time that God will capture her borrowed life.
After several minutes in praying, Zandra opened her eyes, holding her mom and dad’s hands because she’s between them. She closed her eyes again and began to pray.
“God,please take good care of them. I love them and I know you love them too as you loved me. I’m now about to lose my breath, ready to serve you at the heaven. May my love for them will remain in their hearts even in my absence,” she prayed solemnly and cried much. Her mom and dad hugged and kissed her.
Zandra opened her eyes, smiling and saying, “ Mom,dad, let’s go,my party is indeed waiting for us.”
That day was Zandra’s fifteenth birthday and at the same time, her last day here on earth. When they reached the house, everybody was sobbing seeing Mr. Montenegro, lifting his daughter, sobbing and says, “Our angel was gotten by our Almighty Father.”
The whole family were in grief that time and continue to grief upon seeing their angel rest in peace at the house for almost two weeks. The burial day came and it’s time to lose their angel totally. Her mom and dad cried and grieved so much as she about to pull out at the house. A black umbrella parade was held showing that Zandra touched so many hearts when she’s still alive. The angel of the family was been an angel of the people---being remembered and loved.
