"You realized now?" I look at him, confuse. Realize what? We're here at our house. It's been a week had passed. I still don't know the real reason why Zed left me 'cause I don't understand what he said that night.
Leaved me is the only way to protect me? What was that?
"What do you mean?"
"Did you realize now that it's still him? Don't deny it." I stilled. I don't know what to say. It's Bryce who's asking, my husband and I don't know if it's right to tell him. I knew he won't mind but still it's not good to tell your husband about the other guy in your life.
"Why are you asking that?" He look at me seriously.
"To know that you're finally happy."
"I'm happy."
"Your true happiness is to be with him. And I want that for you." Kumunot ang noo ko.
"Bryce, yung mga nangyayari sa'kin nitong mga nakaraan, may kinalaman kaba dun?" He smiled.
"What do you think?"
Umawang ang labi ko. Natulala.
"What the hell, Bryce? Why did you do that?" I ask. I don't understamd him. Why is he doing those? He's the only one crazy husband I know.
"I just want you to realize."
"You shouldn't do that. You're crazy."
"Hon, I want you to be happy."
"I'm happy."
"Not with me."
Huminga ako ng malalim. God, why is he being like this? Naiiyak ako.
"I'm happy with you."
"Not so happy being with him."
"Why are you saying that?!"
"Because it's true."
"How did you know?!"
"You're my best friend. The woman I've been dreaming. The woman I love the most. My everthing... My wife."
My tears fell. He loves me so much. And I'm a bitch to hurt him. He's hurt I know. Behind those smiles, laughter, he's hurt.
"I'm sorry..."
"Don't say sorry. Before we got married I already know that." Niyakap ko siya at dun umiyak sa balikat niya. Hinagud-hagod niya naman ang likod ko. "Shh... don't cry. Kakasabi ko lang na maging masaya ka pero umiyak ka."
"Ikaw kasi!" Natawa siya tapos kumalas. Pinunasan ko ang luha ko at sinundan siya ng tingin.
Lumakad siya papunta sa may lamesa at may kunuhang black folder. Kumunot ang noo ko. What the hell? I know that folder. Is he want me to do it again?
No! Hindi ako papayag!
"Come on, Hon. Sign this."
"No."
"Why?"
"Bryce, baliw ka na talaga. Bakit gustong-gusto mo 'kong pirmahan yan?"
"Just sign this."
"Ayoko."
Hindi ko pipirmahan yun. Pinakasalan ko siya. Yes, it's just an arranged marriage, but it's still my choice. I choose to marry him and I won't sign that annulment. One year na ang papel na yun, at may pirma na siya dun. Pirma ko nalang ang kulang at tuluyan na mapapawalang bisa ang kasal namin. Alam 'kong marami pa dapat at mahaba ang proseso nun pero magaling ang abogado niya kaya kapag pinirmahan ko yun ay wala na. Wala nang bisa ang kasal namin.
