Nagtaksil sa akin ang taong pinili kong mahalin—ang aking asawa—at ang matalik kong kaibigan. Sinasabi ng lahat, ngunit nagbulag-bulagan ako. Pinili kong manahimik at maniwala sa kasinungalingan. Ang katigasan ng ulo kong iyon ang naging kapalit ng aking buhay. At sa huli, inangkin nila ang lahat ng aking pinaghirapan at iniwan. Ngunit hindi doon nagtapos ang aking kwento. Binigyan ako ng tadhana ng panibagong buhay—isang pagkakataong wala na ang dating saya, ngunit puno ng iisang layunin: paghihiganti. Sa bagong buhay na ito, mas pinili kong lapitan ang kanyang pinsan—isang ruthless businessman. Mas pinili kong danasin kung ano man ang bago kong kapalaran sa kamay ng kanyang pinsan na iniiwasan niyang maging katunggali sa anumang bagay. "What are you doing with my condoms?" "Bakit ka nandito? Akala ko ba ayaw mong makisama sa akin sa iisang kwarto? Saka pwede ba, magdamit ka!" “It’s my room, so I can do whatever I want. I’ll sleep without clothes, I’ll walk around however I like… and if you happen to look at my body, I won’t stop you. After all…I'm your husband.”

Avalin is a 22 year old who has never had sex and can not begin to know we’re to start. She has never wanted to have sex and has been content with that. Avalin works at a lingerie store and has seen the rich and famous and those scrounging for enough to buy one bra. On this particular Wednesday a women walks in with her daughter and needed two sets of lingerie. “Honey it doesn’t matter if you like the lingerie what matters is that he likes it.” The mother said. “But mom, I don’t even know Mr. Kenway.” “Shut up Eveline, you will get him to sleep with you and get pregnant. Then we can live the lives we want.” The mother said well paying the bill and turning to walk out. This was not the first time Avalin has heard of someone buying lingerie to get there daughter to try and trap Mr.Kenway. Avalin reached for the phone to call the Kenway residence. “Kenway residence.” Avalin has called multiple times to give information so that Mr.Kenway didn’t get trapped. However this was the first time she’s heard this voice. It is more gruff and sullen than the cranky man who usually answers the phone. “Eveline Perry, will try to trap Mr.Kenway on Friday. She will drug his drink at Sky Bar after his dinner meeting.” “How do you know about my dinner meeting?” Mr.Kenway said. Avalin hung up the phone as quick as possible.

"Get up, I'm hungry. Cook for me NOW!" The authoritative tone jolted me awake, not giving me a moment to freshen up or even change. We don't sleep side by side; he stays in the master bedroom while I occupy the guest room. He can't stand being near me. It hurts deeply when those words come from him, but it's a recurring pattern. I hurriedly made my way downstairs, still tying the robe around me. In the kitchen, I began preparing his breakfast. You see, I'm his secret wife. No one knows except our parents and a few friends. Since we got married, not a day goes by without him reminding me that he doesn't love me. Not a day goes by without him hurting me. But that's alright because, as I've mentioned, I love him so much that I'm willing to do anything just to earn his love in return. A single tear escaped and fell onto the clove of garlic I was chopping. I quickly wiped it away. From the corner of my eye, I noticed Manang watching me. I took a deep breath to regain my composure before turning to her with a forced smile. "I'm sorry; I got emotional over garlic." I lied.
