Red and Neri sat together, grappling with the weight of the condemnation and judgment that surrounded them. Their hearts were heavy, they found solace in each other's presence as they braced themselves for the difficult conversations that lay ahead.
Red: "I never imagined it would come to this, Neri. The way people are talking... it's like we've become pariahs overnight."
Neri's eyes glistened with unshed tears, her voice trembling with emotion.
Neri: "It's like we're living in a nightmare, Red. The looks, the whispers... it's unbearable."
Red reached out, gently wiping away a tear from Neri's cheek.
Red: "I know, Neri. But we can't let their judgment define us. Our love is stronger than their words."
Neri nodded, drawing strength from Red's words.
Neri: "You're right, Red. We can't let them tear us apart. We have to stay strong, together."
Red squeezed Neri's hand reassuringly, a silent promise of solidarity.
Red: "We'll face this together, Neri. No matter what they say, our love will prevail."
Their relatives, once pillars of support and guidance, now turned their backs on them, their faces twisted with disgust and disbelief. Tito and Titas shook their heads in disappointment, while cousins exchanged incredulous looks, unable to comprehend the gravity of the situation.
