Home.. What is home? Is there any difference between a home and a house? Well, i guess there is.. For me, a house is just a structural design. Well, let's see, a house can be made of wood or brick even a simple block can . Ofcourse with its roof, floor, walls and furnitures.. but, can you really call a house a home? Well, ofcourse! NOT. You can only call a house a home when a house contains a FAMILY.. Wherein the LOVE and AFFECTION is there.. can you call a family, A FAMILY when one of the so called parents fell out of LOVE and only living in the same roof with his wife because of their child and MARRIAGE? Can it still be called LOVE when only one of them is giving LOVE?
She's Clarisse, she had been married for 25 years with her husband named Lance.. Like any other relationships, sa umpisa lang masaya.. well maybe hindi lahat.. When Clarisse married Lance, pakiramdam nya eh sya na ang pinaka masuwerteng babae sa mundo.. Well, ganun din si Lance..
"I was the luckiest guy on earth Darling. I love you so much."
"Me too. Maybe this is what they called happy ever after. I love you more Darling."
In their first five years, they were going smooth.. Clarisse got pregnant and luckily their baby is a girl.. Tuwang tuwa nun si Lance, nothing can explain his happiness. They named her Sophia, their little angel..
Years passed, well, we can't say that the next five years of their married life is flawless.. Katulad din ng ibang relasyon, nanjan ang mga awayan, tampuhan, sumbatan.. i guess nakakabit na talaga yan sa isang relasyon.. Hindi na rin nasundan pa ng isa o mas marami pang anak si Sophia..
Until, they reached their fifteenth year.. Their daughter was then 10 years old.. Kahit maayos at mukhang walang problemang humaharap sakanya ang mga magulang nya, alam nyang hindi ito ang totoo.. lagi nya kasing naririnig ang parents nya na nag-aaway, nag sisigawan at nagmumurahan..
Well she didnt know why but one day, she spotted her father with a woman.. Sophia was a teenager then, almost 20 years na ding kasal ang kanyang parents.. Back to the topic.. Well the woman seems to be the same age as her mother pero halatang mapag-ayos ito.. Well, kung titignan, mas maganda naman talaga ang mama nya pero mukhang napabayaan na nito ang kanyang sarili dahil sa pag-aasikaso sakanya at ng kanyang ama.. At that moment, she felt hatred towards her dad..
"What a very impressive bastard Daddy." She thought. She went away to that hell scene and went to a bar.
She wants to tell it to her mom pero gusto nyang yung mama nya mismo ang makaalam. Lingid sa kaalaman nya eeh habang nagpapalipas sya ng sama ng loob eh, naguusap na pala ang kanyang mga magulang tungkol sa problemang prinoproblema nya..
"Clarisse, i want a divorce." Deretsong sabi ni Lance.
Tila nagulat dun si Clarisse.. Wala syang masabi but she managed to ask why..
"Bakit ? Anong dahilan?"
"I love someone else. And we're on a relationship."
"Gano na katagal Lance? Gano mo na ako katagal na niloloko?"
"About a year ago."
Napapikit si Clarisse.. hindi nya lubos maisip na lolokohin sya ng asawa nya, sabagay, nagiging madalas na ang away nilang magasawa.. Naging losyang na din sya.. pero, naisip nya, pinagsisilbihan nya naman ito, at higit sa lahat, mahal nya ang asawa nya.. mahal na mahal.. Sakanya nya lang inialay ang puso at buong pagkatao nya.. Pero bat ganto pa ang isinukli nya? Gusto nya itong hiwalayan pero hindi nya kaya.. Masakit, Masakit na masakit.. Pagkatapos ng mahabang pagiisip ay binasag na nya ang katahimikan..
"Fine. Hahayaan kitang makipagrelasyon sa babaing yon, pero.."
"Pero?" Parang nabibiting tanong ni Lance.
