Love After Marriage

After four years with Killian, I got pregnant. I took the pregnancy test and my ID to a private hospital to set up a file, but when entering insurance information, I was stopped by the blonde administrative specialist. "Mrs. Smith, the system shows there is a problem with your marital status." She looked at me awkwardly. "Your marriage to Mr. Killian is not legally effective." I was stunned and instinctively retorted, "That's impossible. We registered in Las Vegas, all the procedures were..." "There is only an application record, no final signed effective document." The specialist turned the screen around and tapped the keyboard a few times. "Moreover, Mr. Killian's legal wife... shows another lady's name." That name was like a thorn, piercing fiercely into my retina. Elena. Killian's personal secretary, and also publicly recognized as the benefactor who saved his life in the Alps avalanche five years ago. I felt all the blood in my body flowing backward. How could it be her?

Si Kristine ay masunuring anak at hindi mahilig makipagtalo sa kahit na sino. Maraming pumupuri sa kanya dahil sa kanyang magaling na pakikisama, kaya malaking tanong para sa kanya kung bakit hinayaan ng Diyos na mangyari sa kanya ang kanyang mga pinagdaanan? Ang second year anniversary nila ng two years boyfriend at planong pagbibigay ng sarili rito dahil sigurado na siyang ito ang lalaking gusto niyang maging asawa ay nauwi sa isang malaking eskandalo. Ang lalaking namulatan niya sa kama ay isang guwapong C.E.O. ng isang steel fabrication at inaakala naman nitong isa siyang prostitute na inarkila nito. Mabilis ding kumalat ang scandal nila na hindi rin niya alam kung paano nangyari at sino ang may gawa. Dahil doon, pilit siyang pinahihiwalay ng ina ng kanyang boyfriend sa anak nito at pinagbantaan. Maging ang kanyang ama ay galit na galit sa kanya at sinabing hinding-hindi na siya makakatungtong sa pamamahay nila hangga't hindi niya dinadala ang lalaking kasama niya sa scandal at nang araw din na iyon, nakipaghiwalay sa kanya ang kanyang boyfriend. Nagpakalayo-layo siya dahil sa kahihiyan pero maliit ang mundo dahil ang boss niya pala sa bagong trabaho ay ang mismong nakatabi niya sa kama, at ito rin ang unang nakaalam na buntis siya at ito ang ama. Pinipilit din ng lola nito na panagutan siya o aalisin ito sa kompanya. Kung magiging asawa niya ito matutuwa ang kanyang ama na isang investment ang tingin sa kanya. Magpapakasal lang sila dahil pareho nila iyong kailangan. Para kay Kristine, ang magulang na lamang niya ang mayroon siya, kahit para na lamang sa katuwaan ng mga ito ay magpapatali siya sa lalaking kasama niya sa naganap na bangungot ng buhay niya.

Masayang namumuhay mag-isa si Daphne bilang Doctor. Hanggang sa nalaman niya mula sa kaniyang Ina na siya pala ay naka-arranged marriage sa isang lalaking hindi niya kilala. Sobrang hirap para kay Daphne na tanggapin na lang basta ang mangyayaring kasal. Kaya naman may isang desisyon siyang hindi niya lubos na pinag-isipan at pinaghandaan. Isang gabi na puno ng pagnanasa at kapusukan. Mas pinili niyang Ibigay ang kaniyang pagkabirhen sa isang estranghero. At sadya namang mapaglaro ang tadhana, dahil ang lalaking kaniyang nakasama nang gabing iyon ay si Treyton Louis Fuentevalle, ang lalaking kaniya pa lang pakakasalan. Ngunit, ang nakapagtataka ay hindi siya naaalala ng lalaki, at ang mas masakit ay ang kapatid niya ang naaalala nito nang gabing sila ang magkasalo. Matutuloy pa ba ang kasal? Makakayanan ba ni Daphne na makasama ang lalaki habang kahati niya ang kaniyang kapatid na higit niyang kinaiinisan? Paano kung malaman niya ang tunay na motibo ni Treyton? Kakayanin pa kaya niya?
