I remember someone asking me, bakit sobrang yabang ko raw when it comes to my married life? Then I simply point my husband out to them. Bakit naman hindi ko ipagyayabang? When I’m being treated right in every imaginable way, ng lalaking lubos ko’ng mahal, at lubos din naman akong mahal. Sobra pa sa sobra. Ganoon nya sa’kin iparamdam.
But if someone ask me the same question today? Malayong-malayo ang magiging sagot ko. Because right now, I only wish to have a second chance in life, so I could save myself from him.
Dahil buong akala ko, swerte na ko sa buhay. Yun pala, hindi ko lang alam lahat ng nangyayari behind my back. I’ve given him my heart, my trust, and all of me, for all these years na magkasama kami. I didn’t know, behind all the good things, he’s cheating on me.
When did I find out?
On the very same day I died.
I died, just because his mistress decided she can’t share the man that was never hers to begin with.
So, in my next life, I am saving myself. I won’t let the same mistake get the best of me. Hindi ko na hahayaang maubos ako sakanya. In my next life, I am saving us.
