It is about a profound, devastating defeat. They must understand the weight of their choices. They must understand their insignificance.” “But Father…”

We'll smile at each other and be one's peace and home. Now, we're strangers. Broken and suffering for the sins we're not even aware of. Tragedy doesn't need blood to be spilled. Sometimes, one word. One phrase, one wrong, and in my case, it's one freaking sin, my father's, is enough to shift the entire thing. My father does that to the whole Petrov clan? How? Why? Importante pa ba ang mga iyon ngayon? I lost the man I love and the promises of tomorrow. Matinis akong tumili.

Sinuyod niya ng tingin ang buong mukha ko. “I was twenty years old when I met Georgia, and I fell in love with her. Nagkaroon kami ng relasyon na tumagal ng dalawang taon. But when papa found out about that, he opposed my relationship with Georgia. He told me to break up with my girlfriend. But I really love her so much. That’s why I chose her over what my father wanted to happen and the wealth he gave me. He took it all from me. And...” Humugot siya ulit ng malalim na paghinga at pinakawalan iyon sa ere. “I blamed him for Georgia’s death. So I left home and tried to forget them as my family. Well, they all sided with the sin that Papa committed against me. My girlfriend died because of him.

"But then, you can correct it to my father; at least no'ng nagkausap kayo. What the hell did you tell my father anyway?" "And risk your father's health? I'm sure you're already aware that my grandma did a thorough background check on you and your family so she would know how she could offer help to you. Ang lola ko ang klase ng taong hindi matatahimik hangga't hindi nakabayad ng utang ng loob, plus of course, the guilt. It's so hard living all your life with the feeling of guilt.

Parang sinaksak ang puso ko. "I'm so sorry, I'm sorry, this is all my fault, Kasalanan ko kong bakit nangyayare to sau ngaun, forgive me" Mas lalong kumirot ang puso ko dahil sa nabasag ang boses ni daddy ng sabihin niya un. No no no dad this is not ur fault. Is not ur fault. Ginusto ko itong mangyare kaya hindi mo kasalanan. Sunod sunod umagos ang luha ko habang nasa dibdib na ako ngaun ng pinakamamahal kong ama.

Hindi ako makapag salita. "were sorry, i'm sorry, nag iisang prinsesa namin." bulong ulit ni dad, masyado akong gulat kaya hindi ako makapag salita. Humagulgul ang ina ko habang nakayakap sa akin. Naramdaman ko kaagad ang mga luha nilang tumutulo sa balikat ko. "I'm sorry hija, i'm sorry please forgive us. Patawarin mo kami ng daddy mo, nag sisisi kami sa ginawa namin, sising sisi kami, please forgive us.." humagulgul na sabe ng aking ina

“Bumasa ako ng libro ni Clara tungkol sa inyong bayan at sa lahat ng inyong nagawa. Naiintindihan ko na ngayon kung bakit hindi ka sumunod sa akin noon, Damien. Ginawa mo ang tama para sa iyong pamilya at sa mga tao. Patawarin mo ako sa lahat ng kasalanan ko sa inyo.” “Patawad na kita, Ama,” sagot ni Damien, naramdaman ang bigat sa kanyang puso na nawawala. “Ang nakaraan ay nakaraan na.

Dahan-dahan niyang ibinaba ang zipper ng kanyang suot na pantalon at saka niya dinukot mula doon ang bagay na hindi ko inaasahan na makikita ko mula sa kanya. Napalunok ako nang masilayan ko ang ari niyang ngayon ay nagngangalit sa laki at taba. Nagmistulang tape measure ang aking mga mata na hinagod iyon ng tingin at sa aking palagay ay nasa anim hanggang pitong pulgada iyon kahaba. Kinausap ko ang sarili ko. 'Forgive me father for I have sinned.' Napapikit na lang ako nang sandaling iyon.

If we can only rewrite the past. Napatingin ako sa kaniya nang hinawakan niya ang kamay ko. "Come with me then.." Kumunot ang noo ko, "Where are we going?" She smiled, "We'll meet our father together.." Matagal ko siyang tinitigan. I'm not convinced that she already forgave me just like that. But I'm dying to see our father. Tumango ako. I may have been angry with him but he's still my father. And he's just a human who made a mistake. I just realized that if we want people to forgive us, then we should also learn how to forgive.
