The Empire Of The Rising Sun

My husband’s friend’s widow uploaded a picture of her pregnancy report. [Thank you for letting me have my own baby.] I responded with a question mark when I saw Jake Green, my husband’s name, in the husband column.

Garrett sabihin mo! Kasi tao din naman ako! Sabihin mo bakit?!" "Dahil pinatay mo ang Mama ko!" "A----ano?! Hindi ko ginawa iyon! Hindi ako kriminal!" "Ki... hindi ikaw ang pumatay! Parte ka pa rin ng pamilyang iyon and I hate You!"
