Stories Friendship

Madalas sabihin ng marami na ang mga anak ang nagsisilbing angkla ng buhay ng isang ina. Para kay Catriona Lavender Carias, tumimo sa puso ang paniniwalang iyon mula sa sandaling mapag-isipan niya ito—hanggang sa subukin ng panahon ang kanyang tibay at paninindigan. Dumating ang sandaling kinailangan niya ng malaking halaga ng pera para sa operasyon ng kanyang ina. Dahil sa matinding desperasyon, napilitan siyang pasukin ang mundong hindi niya kailanman inakalang kakapitan—ang Dream Fortress, isang lihim na bahay-aliwan kung saan ang mga lalaking may matataas na pangalan sa lipunan ay nagbabayad kapalit ng panandaliang aliw. Ngunit sa isang hindi inaasahang pangyayari, ang serbisyong minsan niyang ibinigay sa isang estrangherong naging nag-iisa niyang kliyente ay nagbunga ng isang alaala na hindi mabubura ng panahon—isang anak. Pagkalipas ng isang taon, muling pinagtagpo ng tadhana ang kanilang mga landas. Si Trever de Gracia, ang dating kliyente at ang tunay na ama ng kanyang anak, ay muling pumasok sa kanyang buhay—ngunit hindi siya nakilala nito. Sa halip, inalok siya ni Trever ng isang kakaibang trabaho: magpanggap bilang kanyang kasintahan, at ang kanyang anak bilang sariling dugo, upang pagselosan ang dating kasintahan nito. Ano ang mararamdaman ni Trever kapag nalaman niyang ang batang inaakala niyang bahagi lamang ng isang palabas ay tunay niyang anak? At paano niya haharapin ang katotohanang ang babaeng inupahan niya noon ay ang inang minahal at isinakripisyo ang lahat para sa kanilang anak?

By the time I finally found them, they had already gone into the bridal suite and consummated their marriage. When I demanded answers, Sharon did not show a trace of guilt. "You live off me. You'd better behave. Make a scene, and we'll divorce." My heart went cold. I handed her the divorce papers, but she barely looked at them. "Looks like you've improved," she said lightly. "At least you know a performance should be convincing from start to finish."
