Kaya siguro, oras na para tigilan ko na ang pagsubok na kumbinsihin silang karapat-dapat ako. Mas mahalaga kung ano ang tingin ko sa sarili ko. Mas mahalaga ang konsensiya kong malinis. At mas mahalaga ang mga taong nakakakita ng tunay kong halaga. Hindi ko kailangang patunayan ang sarili ko sa lahat. Ang kailangan ko lamang ay manatiling matatag. Patuloy na lumaban.

He was just not letting slide the opportunity away. Do I still know my worth? I never imagined in my life that I would be that woman that I loathe the most... the woman who gives themselves to a man who doesn't care at all about them. The woman who throw themselves at men who know nothing but to use them just for personal needs. Lastly, the woman who don't know their value and what they deserved. Even how much I wanted to enjoy this moment, I just couldn't. How can I? "Mother fucking, you taste so fucking good!" he said obscenely.

O kung mahahanap ko pa ba? But then I realized that everything happens for a reason.

We should never let other people drag us down.

I know that now, and I will apply that to protect myself... Because no one does. ***
