Romans & histoires A Mother's Sacrifice

A mother will always sacrifice her personal space and safety for the goodness of her children. Ngunit sa kanyang pananaw ay hindi lahat ng ina o nanay ay ganoon ang pananaw sa buhay. Sa kanyang balintataw at pagkaalala niya sa kanyang mommy Florinda ay lumaki siyang salat sa kalinga nito. Wala siyang moments na maalala na kasama ito at inuuna ang kapakanan niya.

Kaya inisip niyang kaya siya pinagtitiisan ng kanyang ina ay dahil wala itong ibang magawa, na pareho silang biktima. Ngunit ngayon... unti-unti na niyang nakikita ang katotohanan. Her mother wasn't enduring for her sake. Sa halip, ginagamit pa nito ang kanyang mga sakripisyo upang makuha ang pabor ng kanyang ama at ng legal nitong asawa. Habang mas nagtitiwala siya sa kanyang ina, mas lalo lamang siyang nasasaktan. Mas lalo siyang nadidismaya.

"Do you think I built this empire by doing whatever I wanted? No! I made sacrifices. Your mother made sacrifices. We married to secure the foundation of what you are enjoying right now!"

Bigla akong nakaramdam ng matinding awa sa kaniya, ngunit kasabay niyon ay ang matinding takot na baka matulad ako sa kaniya—isang magandang palamuti sa isang malaking bahay, walang boses, at unti-unting namamatay sa lungkot habang kasama ang lalaking hindi niya kailanman minahal.

“You know where to find me.” Alessandro was lost in thoughts even after the woman disappeared from his sight. He balled his fists as he sucked his breath. He needs to make a decision. He knew that he can’t ask money from his brother without him demanding him to go back. He gave up everything, even his money just to see Anastacia again. He squeezed his eyes closed. Anastacia did the same thing for her father. She sold herself to him to save her father. She can sacrifice herself for the people she loves. What kind of husband would he be if he couldn’t sacrifice for her?

“I’m asking you to save them.” My chest tightened. “And what about me?” mahina kong tanong. She looked at me quietly. “Sometimes sacrifices are necessary.” Tears started forming in my eyes. “So I’m the sacrifice.” She didn’t deny it. And somehow that hurt more than if she had. I looked down at the table. Maybe Helena was right. Maybe the only way to stop this… Is to step away. But the thought of leaving them… Leaving everything… It felt like my heart was being torn apart.

"Alam n’yo po ba kung gaano kasakit makita si Mama noon? Lahat ng sakripisyo niya noong nandito siya—lahat ng pagtitiis niya sa mga masasakit na salitang galing kina Tita Carol at Mamala. Tuwing gabi... umiiyak siya nang tahimik habang pilit na tinatakpan ang bibig para lang hindi kami magising. Alam n’yo po bang madalas siyang nag-aantay sa inyo magdamag habang kayo naman... masayang kasama ang iba?" Pilit na pinahid ni Eunice ang kanyang mga luha gamit ang likod ng kamay, ngunit lalo lang bumuhos ang sakit na kinikimkim. "Kahit isang beses man lang sana, Papa... kahit isang beses man lang na mag sorry kayo sa kanya... Nakita n'yo ba kung paano siya unti-unting nawalan ng sigla? Kung paano

Mayamaya ay napagdesisyunan ko nang umupo, napahawak na naman ako sa aking tiyan na ngayo'y maumbok na. "Baby, palaki ka dyan ah. " bulong ko dito. "Five months left baby at lalabas ka na. " nakangiting sambit ko dito. "Maging malakas ka para sa amin ng daddy mo, baby. Hindi ko alam ang gagawin ko sa sarili kapag nawala ka sa amin. " I continued. Bumuga ako ng hangin at tumingala sa langit. I'm willing to sacrifice everything just for the sake of my baby. Wala akong pakialam kahit na anong mangyari sa akin.

hindi itinago ng babae ang matinding hinanakit. Devance breathed out sharply. “I’m doing this for the welfare of my kids.” “Liar! You still love her, don’t you? What about my sacrifices? Wala na lang ba ‘yon? I stayed with you in your darkest moment, Dev. And now you’re just going to drop me like trash?” Pinunas nito ang luha. “I need to make a choice.
