In many Filipino families, inheritance is rarely discussed directly.

It exists instead in hints, assumptions, and remembered conversations repeated over many years. A parent casually mentions who should eventually take care of the ancestral home. A sibling quietly assumes the vacant lot beside the house was already intended for them. Someone recalls a promise made years ago and repeats it so often that, over time, it begins to feel less like memory and more like fact.
