Half a year after our divorce, my ex-husband became a trending topic online. His current wife, who had just given birth, jumped off a building. When she jumped, she was clutching a printed, 98-page copy of the "Cloves Family Code of Conduct." The reason for her suicide? She couldn’t buy discounted groceries online. A reporter came to interview me and asked, "Excuse me, were you also given the same family rules?"

I called Zachary one final time. Yet, it was a woman who answered. "Margaret, right? Zachary's in the shower. Is there something you need?" I stared at my mother's smile on the gravestone, and an overwhelming emptiness spread through me. "It's nothing. Just wanted to talk about the divorce."

"Sa tingin mo ba na pipiliin ka ng CEO boss natin? Kagaya ng isang cheap na katulad mo... Na isang assistant lamang niya?" ani sa akin ng pinakamagandang babae sa department nung team dinner namin. Natahimik naman ako dahil sa sinabi nito sa akin at napayuko ako. Mabuti hindi pa dumadating ang asawa ko at hindi niya maririnig ang insulto na sinasabi sa akin. "Look at you. No fashion sense and also a nerd lady... So manang. Ang gusto ng boss natin ay ang mga kagaya namin na fresh at magaganda." Napakamao ako pero nananatili pa rin akong kalmado sa nangyayari ngayon. Hindi ko alam kung bakit ganito sila sa akin. Biglang natahimik ang lahat nang biglang bumukas ang pintuan at napatingin naman ako roon at nakita ko si Nando na kakarating lang. Umupo siya sa upuan niya at katabi niya ang babaeng yun na kinakunot ng noo niya. Napatingin naman siya sa babaeng nasa tabi niya. "Bakit ka nakaupo sa tabi ko?" Natigilan naman ang babae at parang namutla dahil sa malamig na sinabi ng asawa ko. Napatingin naman siya sa akin na kinagulat ko. "Come sit with your husband."
