Teaser: An Ex's Confession I was nineteen and he was twenty when Hajime and I fell in love with each other. We promised to be together forever. We promised not just love but respect. Nangarap kami ng sabay para sa mga sarili namin. Nangarap din kami ng para sa amin dalawa. I knew in my heart that I will love no other man but him. And we promised that we will be with each other through good times and bad. Pero nagising na lang ako isang umaga na iniwan na ako ni Hajime. He left me hanging after his Mom disapproved of our relationship. He chooses to give up on me instead of fighting for me. Sa isang iglap, gumuho ang mundo na binuo namin para sa isa't isa. We never talked ever since that day. Kahit na iisa ang grupo ng mga kaibigan namin. We treat each other as strangers. Sa halip na hayaan ko ang sarili ko na malugmok sa labis na sakit at lungkot. I focused on my studies and my career as a theatre actress and to achieve my dreams to be an international theatre actress. A year later, finally, the chance for me to finally reach for my dreams came. Isa ako sa napili ng Theatre Club namin na mag-audition para sa female lead role ng isang sikat at international stage play. That's my dream right in front of me. But few days before my audition. I started losing my voice. Sa pangalawang pagkakataon, gumuho ulit ang mundo ko. I cried and cried, and Hajime is the first person to come to me. Akala ko tapos na ang lahat, pero isa pang masakit na balita ang dumating sa akin. I was diagnosed with Muscle Tension Dysphonia. I got so depressed. I shut down all the people around me. My family, my friends, and Hajime.
