Giit niya sa isip nito habang nakatingin siya sa litrato nilang dalawa nung araw ng kanilang kasal. “Anak, tama ba ang nais mong makipag hiwalay na sa asawa mo” mahinaong sabi ng ina habang sila’y kumakain. Ipinagtapat na ni Mateo sa ina ang tungkol sa dating asawa nito. Halos di makapaniwala ang ina sa kanyang nalaman sa anak. Gusto niya ito makita. Nasasabik siyang makita ang manugang na inakala niyang patay na ito. Walang mapagsidlan ang kanyang galak na makita itong muli.

Hindi dapat ako magreklamo; nakagawa ng kasalanan sa akin si Brody noong hindi niya pinanatag ang kalooban ko na dahilan kung bakit ako umalis sa kasal namin.

It can be emotional too—making your partner feel insecure, uncomfortable, second-guessing their place in your life because of someone else. That's precisely what happened between us.

Don’t forget that.”
