Elle

It's been one year since Gabrielle and I got married. But this marriage is not your typical marriage because it doesn't start with a romantic relationship or a wonderful love story, ours started in the most unexpected way.

I desperately need to find a stable job during the time I bumped into Gabrielle. Because, no one will provide my needs expect for myself. I grew up in an orphanage because both of my parents died in a car crashed when I was just 3 years old. I have no family left. So, the police and rescuers during that time had no choice but to left me under the custody of an orphanage. Well, I manage to study because of a scholarships sponsored by the orphanage and its partner companies but I left the orphanage and moved in to a small boarding house in BGC, when I graduated.

It was spiring of 2018. When I first meet Gabrielle. Couple of days later, we got married. Yes, we got married days right after we met each other.

I desperately need to stay in U.S, nung pumunta ako do'n, I only got a tourist visa because I tried to find a job there by myself. Without any employer or agency since I'm a bit afraid and paranoid that I may get scam or what. I can't afford that to happened. So, I overstayed in that country for several months since my arrival and the expiration of my visa. But, Gabrielle came in to the picture and saved me.

He holds a dual citizenship because he was born and raised here. So, he agreed to marry me. In exchange, he said that he'll be going to introduce me to his family. So, he does. While I'm fixing my problem with my green card, we continue to pretend as in love couple In front of his parents and It took one and half year of pretending, until I fixed my problem and I told Gabrielle that I'm ready to file for a divorce. But, surprisingly. He didn't agree with my decision. Before that conversation, Gabrielle and his family already got their ticket way back home IN THE PHILIPPINES.

Gabrielle told me that he still needs me. His Mom already knew about my relationship with their Son. She even told me once that she likes me as her daughter in law. Gabrielle begged me to stay for the sake of his sick mother. Kahit gaano 'ko man kagustong umayaw ay hindi 'ko na nagawa.

My plan has been ruined and now I'm stucked in this lonely situation. I agreed to go back in the Philippines with them, only if, Gabrielle, will give or at least help me find a stable job there and that's it. I'm already here, and now, I can't back out.

Pasulyap sulyap ako sa wall clock na nakasabit sa may dirty kitchen. Anong oras na kasi, 7:30 am at baka gising na si Gabrielle.

"Manang. Please, give it to Gabrielle before he go to work and please don't tell him that I was the one who prepared this, just tell him that you are the one who made all of these. Alright?" I instructed Manang Jossy. Because I know that if Gabrielle finds out that I was the one who made this breakfast and lunch for him, he wouldn't eat nor bring these snacks if he finds out. Well, I instructed Manang Jossy because she just got hired yesterday. One of our helper needs to resign because of their health issues.

I immediately run upstairs afterwards because he might see me here, I know he doesn't want to see my face early in the morning. We are sleeping in a separate room. Yes, we are married but we don't share the same bed. Hindi kami nagsasabay mag-breakfast kasi masyadong awkward for the both of us.

It's either I eat breakfast before him or after he left for work and that's what we do in a daily basis. I'm used to it but sometimes I feel deeply hurt. My career plan has been ruined and I married a man who doesn't love me either, who can't even look at me straight in to my eyes. A man who doesn't care for me. It's breaking my heart to think that I didn't get a chance to marry someone who can accept me for who am I and can love me wholeheartedly.

After this marriage will end, I honestly don't know what will gonna happen to me or what will I am going to do next.

The worst part of it was, I'm slowly falling for him even though, I know that there's no chances of him falling in love with me or getting back the love that I am giving him.

I am aware that there's no love involved in this marriage. But, just an agreement and deal. I accepted the fact that he didn't love me but why I can't stop myself from falling?

You know, what's the worst part of this situation? Nobody knows about our marriage except for his family and some of my closest friends.

Siguro dahil alam niyang balang araw. When the time is right ay maghihiwalay din kami. So, what's the point of telling his friends nga naman diba, kung hindi naman talaga 'ko 'yung forever niya.

Isa pa, Nobody in my circle of friends knew about him kasi hindi din naman kami lumalabas na magkasama. Only my best friend and one of my co-workers knew that I was married to Gabrielle.

I didn't took his surname. So, if we file for a divorce. Walang hassle sa pagpapalit ng apilyedo o sa pag-aayos ng dokumento but of course, I changed my marital status. From single to married.

After an hour I decided to go downstairs again, sigurado naman kasi akong wala na si Gabrielle doon.

Napatingin ako sa wall clock na nakasabit sa may dirty kitchen, it's already 9 am. Late na'ko sa trabaho 'ko.

I'm working for a law firm near Manila as a paralegal. Well, it's my dream to be a lawyer so I am now studying in a law school.

Pinagaasabay 'ko 'yung work at 'yung studies 'ko to support myself when it comes to my financial needs because I need to multitask in order to save up and prepare for my own future because I know this won't last forever.

This marriage won't last forever because there's no love involved. Darating 'yung araw na kahit gaano 'ko man kagustong mag-stay ay kailangan 'ko pa rin piliing umalis at bumitaw.

Hindi 'ko gustong itali si Gabrielle sa isang sitwasyong hindi naman siya masaya.

Sa kalagayan 'ko ngayon na walang kasiguraduhan.. I should train my mind to stay still and be strong.

Kasi kung hahayaan 'kong magpatuloy 'yung walang kasiguraduhang pagmamahal 'ko kay Gabrielle baka ako lang din ang maging dehado sa dulo.
