Disadvantages Of Climbing Stairs

Sabi nila, isa raw sa magagandang araw sa buhay ng isang babae ay ang maikasal sa lalakeng mahal niya. Pero hindi ako. Dahil iniwan ako ng lalakeng nangako sa akin na sasamahan ako habang buhay sa mismong seremonya ng aming kasal. Iniwan niya akong nag-iisa sa altar at mas pinili ang nakababata kong kapatid. Hindi lahat ng kasal ay masaya. Isinumpa ko ang araw  na iyon at nangako sa sariling maghihiganti. Pero paano pa ako makapaghihiganti kung namatay ako mismo sa araw na iyon?
