"You're a lesbian?" Tanong ko kay Jana dahil ilang gabi na niya akong tinatawagan para umiyak.
"I'm so sorry." Sabi nito kaya niyakap ko siya ng mahigpit. "But at least you and Stell can be together again...make things right, please."
"Wala na, Jana. Hinayaan ko siyang bumitaw kaya ayon na nga ang ginawa niya, hindi ko siya naipaglaban.
"Pablo, our marriage was illegal."
"What?" Hindi ako makapaniwala sa sinasabi ni Jana. "Jana, hindi mo kailangan sabihin iyan para lang iwan kita. Kahit hindi ikaw ang taong mahal ko, I still genuinely care about you."
"Huh? No, nagsasabi ako ng totoo. Tito made an agreement with a fake lawyer kaya hindi tayo kinasal." She explained, she sighed when I didn't believe her. "Pau, recently ko lang nalaman and galit na galit ako kay Tito...he tied us together when we could've done so much more with our lives."
"Great...when we both have given up then the world starts giving me hope." Sabi ko kaya natawa siya. "Want to have dinner for the last time as my wife? My treat."
"Sige, then tomorrow I'll start working on our papers."
Of course she'd tease me by bringing me to Stell's restaurant. Parang sira naman itong si Jana. Kapag kami ni Stell, nagharap baka maiyak lang ulit ako.
He never gotten drunk after talking to me for the last time. Hindi na niya ulit ako pinuntahan and nanibago ako doon. I recently met a lot of people who have been good to me and maybe for the better.
"That would be all, thank you." I returned to my self when Jana spoke to the waiter. "Pau, I'll be going home to Bulacan tonight. Can you drive me?"
"Of course, all I can do for my wife." Inirapan niya ako kaya natawa ako sa naging reaction niya.
"So, anong plano mo once we divorce legally?"
"Hindi ko alam. I want to do something new, maybe I'll apply for work at a bank or something."
"Okay, also...babalik ka pa bang America? I mean we did almost start a life there."
Umiling ako, America still haunts me. Lahat ng firsts ko sa America...kinasusuklaman ko until this day. I noticed Stell talking with Justin and a girl, seemed like the girl was mad at Justin.
When Stell saw me, he quickly looked back at Justin. I think he's not okay with the fact na andito ako, once me and Jana finished we already left.
I have been feeling down lately kaya naisipan kong bumisita sa local park. Jana is already in America working on our papers, she is also filing a report against my father and hers.
She is such a brave person.
"Pablo!" Napalingos ako kay Justin when he called out to me. "Kamusta? Okay ka naman diba?"
"Ahm...yes, why wouldn't I be?"
"Nabalitaan ko kasi kay Stell na hiwalay na kayo ni Jana." Sagot ni Jah.
"But I never told him anything." I said and looked at Stell when he got near us.
"Chismoso ka talaga." I commented that made him laugh.
"My blood runs, Nase."
