Battle For Happiness Novels & Stories

naiirita kong tanong. "Mahirap bang gawin na... sana... pakawalan mo na kami? Palayain mo na kami ng anak mo. We're just starting our life living in a fairytale-like world. We're just about to unlock our happiness, and... you're blocking the door now?" Hinila ko pabalik ang kamay kong kanina ay hinihimas niya pa. "The key to unlocking our happiness is cutting my... our connection with you. So, p'wede ba? Leave us alone!"

Hindi ko napigilan ang sarili ko at sinuntok ko siya ng sobrang lakas para mabawasan ang galit sa loob ko. "F*ck you!" Tumawa siya ng sarkastiko. "I'm happy because Maxine left," he said before punching me back. Yes, he's right. I must be happy because I'm single. I am not f*cking married. My grandfather deceived me. I am not married. I can marry whoever I want now. Wala na akong problema. I am alone in my house. Yes, I should be happy. I should be f*cking happy and make a lot of money. I clenched my fist in the idea that I won't see her again.

“Yes. Para alam niyang, hello, hindi ako kaaway. I’m for whatever will make you happy.” “And do you know what will make me happy?” anitong naupo sa couch at hinila siya sa kandungan nito. Isinampay niya ang dalawang braso sa balikat nito. “Me?” “Yes. You.” Humawak si Adam sa baywang niya. “Being with you, marrying you, making you happy too . . .” “I doubt na magugustuhan ni Mama Violet kung ako ang magsasabi niyan.”
