A Substitute Mother's Confession
Five years ago, I was only seventeen years old who suddenly became a substitute Mother to a cute and beautiful baby. Pakiramdam ko ay responsibilidad ko ang bata dahil sa pagtalikod ng bestfriend ko na siyang tunay na ina ni Hani. At sa ama ng baby, si Aven, ang kababata ko, whom I also felt responsible for his broken heart. Ngunit ng kalaunan, napamahal sa akin si Hani. Inalagaan ko siya na parang tunay kong anak. Tinulungan ko si Aven na makatayo muli at maka-move on. I stayed beside them and never left.
Ngunit dahil doon ay iniwan ako ni Brent, ang boyfriend ko. And during my darkest times. Aven stayed beside me. This time, he took care of me, like how a husband takes care of his wife. Simula noon ay mas naging mas malalim ang pagkakaibigan namin. We both attended Hani's needs as if we are real husband and wife.
Hanggang isang araw, makalipas ang mahigit isang taon, bumalik si Brent sa buhay ko. Aven then, started to treat me differently. Until one night, he kissed me. Everything between us, on how we treat each other became different. Na-realize ko na lang na mahal ko na pala si Aven. Pero ang lahat ng meron ako ay pansamantala lang pala. Dumating ang araw na kailangan ko ng tapusin ang pagpapanggap ko bilang "substitute mother" kay Hani at "substitute wife" kay Aven. I have to leave and let go.
