Ino-shika-cho

Hindi kamukha ng tatlong taong gulang na anak kong lalaki ang asawa ko. Naghihinala, ang father-in-law ko ay kumuha ng paternity test para sa anak ko. Ang resulta ay nagpakita na walang biological na relasyon sa pagitan nila. Galit at napahiya, ang father-in-law ko ay sumabog sa galit, nagbato ng mga insulto sa akin at pinagbantaan pa na patayin kami. Ang asawa ko, galit din, ay sinampal ako ng malakas sa mukha. “Walang hiya ka! Hinayaan mo ako na palakihin ang anak ng ibang lalaki ng tatlong taon!” Habang nakatitig sa kanilang nagaakusang mga mukha, kalmado akong gumawa ng isa pang report—paternity test sa pagitan ng asawa ko at ng kanyang ama. Kinumpirma nito na sila ay hindi din biological na magkaugnay. Ang kanilang mga ekspresyon ay napahinto sa gulat. Na may maliit na ngiti, sinabi ko, “Mukhang hindi natin alam kung sino ay hindi parte ng pamilyang ito, hindi ba?”

My husband makes me quit my job to care for his deceased friend's wife after she's given birth. Yet, she deliberately breastfeeds to his face. He can't take his eyes off her, yet he has the nerve to call me petty. He even says I'm asking for trouble. Later, I get a divorce and sell the house. I return to my hometown and make it big there. That's when he begs me to take him back.

At 4:30 in the morning, my husband answered a call from his ex-girlfriend and accidentally put it on speaker. "Jason, my daughter, Alison, has a fever—over 104. I can't get a ride..." The sudden sound of sobbing jolted me awake. Jason hurriedly turned off the speaker and lowered his voice. "Send me your location. I'll come right away." It seemed he had forgotten that today was my first prenatal checkup.

Hindi naging madali ang buhay ni Cataleya Lorenzo. Lumaki siyang walang ina at ang tanging pamilya niya ay ang ama niyang palaging abala pero kailanma’y hindi siya pinabayaan. Sa Amerika siya nagkaisip, malayo sa mundong tunay niyang pinagmulan. Pagbalik niya sa Pilipinas, isang linggo pa lang ang lumilipas nang ipakilala sa kanya ng ama ang matalik nitong kaibigan—si Santino Rosales. Matagal na niyang naririnig ang pangalang iyon, pero hindi siya handa sa kung anong klaseng presensya ang sasalubong sa kanya. Walang nabanggit ang ama niya tungkol sa lalaking may tinging kayang tumagos sa laman, tinig na malamig pero nakakakuryente, at lakas ng loob na hindi mo puwedeng bale-walain. Si Santino Rosales ay isang kilalang propesor, negosyante, at taong hindi basta nalalapitan. Pero habang tumatagal, lalong nahuhulog si Santino sa bitag ng sarili niyang damdamin. At nang biglang bawian ng buhay ang ama niya sa isang aksidente, naiwan siyang walang mapuntahan kundi ang bahay ni Santino. Sa huling hiling ng ama niya, ito na ang magiging tagapangalaga niya. Ngunit sa bawat araw na magkasama sila, sa bawat tahimik na gabing sila lang ang naroroon, mas lalong humihigpit ang tali ng damdaming hindi dapat umusbong. Anong gagawin niya kung ang nag-iisa niyang tagapagtanggol ay siya ring lalaking unti-unting bumibihag sa puso niya?

I accidentally come across a post made by my mom's smurf account on the Internet. "Is it too cheap for me to prepare just a set of gold bars as a coming-of-age gift for my daughter?" My heart skips a beat. My parents are known for being extremely stingy. To think that they are willing to spend this much on me! I'm worried that my parents might overwork themselves just to prepare such a lucrative gift, so I take a screenshot and save the link to a three-year vacation tour that's priced at 999 dollars. Then, I decide to respond to the post as an anonymous user. "Your daughter will feel very happy as long as she receives her parents' love. No materialistic gift can ever outshine that." Five minutes later, Mom responds to me, "Thank you for your suggestion, but I've already taken my darling on a graduation trip in Enora last week. She had so much fun there."
