In the middle of internship, our relationship became my fucking nightmare. Endless misunderstandings. Crazy fights in between. Our families changed from being so close to enemies in just a blinked of an eye. That one decision our parents made our life a living hell. Everyday they'll try to break us apart.


But we stood together. We both managed to finish medschool and passed the boards together. But, when the filing of candidacy happened I can longer breathe with my parents being over controlling. At kahit sya alam kong pagod na.


I remembered him asking na lumayo na lang kami. Politics is a dirty game. It made people wreck relationships and people's life.


"Celine, go to New York for your residency. We'll fix everything." Mom said nung nakahiga ako ng kama. Kakapasa lang namin ng boards last week, heto nanaman sila.


"Mom, I'll do it in SGH. Gab already had our applications sent." I answered. I never say no to them. Ngayon lang ata.


"No. You'll go. And why are you still friends with her, hindi ba nagbreak na sila ni Gino?!" Mom said almost shouting. Ang aga-aga sermon nanaman nya naririnig ko. I chose not to answer.


"Gino is in New York, sundan mo na lang sya dun." Sabi ni mommy.


"Can't I just do it here, mom?!" I asked annoyed.


"No! I told you already. Did you end your relationship with Clark? Family over anyone anak." She said.


"How can you say that easily, mom? Kilala nyo sya. Limang taon na kami. And we've been best friends since we were 6. How can you expect mo to just end it." I said almost crying.


"See?! Yan ang naturo ni Clark sayo, ang sumagot sa amin. No, you'll go to New York. And that's final." Mom said then stormed out from my room. Nagtalukbong lang ako.


Pagbaba ko ng kwarto nasa dining table na sila mommy at daddy.


"Celine, go to New York!" Dad said seriously. Bakit ba hindi nila ako pagdesisyunin mag-isa.


"Dad, can you just let me stay?" I said almost crying.


"Are you seriously disobeying us?!" Dad said shouting.


"You'll go to New York and that's final. End of discussion here." He said.


"But dad, how can I just leave him? Please give me some time. Mag-papaalam lang ako dad. I promise I'll go. Just give me two months." I said crying.


"A gave you a year to end it. Pero ang tigas na ng ulo mo. Fine, end it as early as possible or I'll end it for you." Dad said, bago umalis sa kusina. Bakit ganun, dahil sa pulitika pati kami damay. Nung iisa pa yung party nila kulang na kang ipakasal na nila kami. Ngayon parang hindi nila tinawag na anak si Clark.


"Celine, I know you think this is unfair. But don't you think you're being unfair too, to your dad?" Mom asked.


"Bakit po kami yung unfair? We are not part of that game. Okay naman po kami dati. Why do you have to include us?" I said crying.


"Because that's how family works. Last warning na 'to anak. Makinig ka naman." Sabi ni mommy tapos umalis na.


After nung breakfast ay pumasok lang ako sa kwarto ko. I don't have any concrete plan. Hindi ko rin naman sya kayang iwan, pero hindi ko din naman kayang suwayin yung mga magulang. So I decided to message Gino.

Celine: Couz, still on the rocks. Mom is forcing me already.
