Novel & Cerita Tungkulin Sa Pamilya

Silence answered me then, “s And?” The single word hit harder than shouting. I stared at the wall blankly. My chest suddenly felt too tight. “Mom…” “Tiana,” she interrupted firmly, “do you know how many families would beg for the life you have?” I closed my eyes slowly waiting for it: the guilt tripping, the obligation, the reminder that my marriage wasn’t mine. It belonged to everyone else too; my younger brother’s tuition, my father’s debts, the medical bills, the family business Genova’s connections practically saved… every sacrifice tied neatly around my throat like a leash.

My family is in trouble and I am responsible for it. ************

Thank you so much for showing me how much my trust means to you. Do you know what family means? A group of people who have each other's back and are willing to go to the ends of the earth to bring a smile to the others' faces. Call it a true family or a real family—the true family definition is the sense of loyalty, selflessness, love, and genuine care and concern for the others. Love? Who am I kidding. We- I don't know that.

we both just smiled. Sometimes I ask myself, why did I have a big family like this? Unfortunately this is what I really want, to be with my husband for life with my children. Also, family is important so I will definitely not abandon my family. But one more thing that a housewife would always remember! Don't fight with your husband when he comes home from work, especially for unknown reasons'. The husband's job is to take care of the pillar of the home and provide its happiness. My family will not have problems, you and your husband have trust in each other. I can? I will love my wife and my children very much because they are my life.

I scoff with a shake of my head. "I'm sure he can but he will, but this is arranged and he doesn't want it. Anymore delay and he'll see reasons to call it off. But it is important that we become a part of that family and you will play your part. You can no longer run away from your duty to your family." "My family?" I snort a laugh, making certain my sarcasm doesn't go unnoticed. "Why is it so important, becoming a part of the so called family you speak of?"

she pointed to herself, "I have failed you at times. But that doesn't mean that you need to keep everything to yourself." She continued, "Starting today, you can tell me anything and everything. Especially when you need help in terms of babysitting. I know you're giving your all, just to be the stronghold of your family. However, you must remember that the power to lead your household doesn't lie on you. It should be your mother's responsibility. You can't do everything all by yourself. You're too young to take on such heavy obligations. Especially when it's not yours to keep. Do I make myself clear?"

Was that wrong? Trevor's expression turned grave increasingly. "The Richards family is in a critical period now. We should join forces as the present and future generations of the Richards family to get everyone through this crisis. Our family principle teaches us not to bully others, but at the same time, not to allow others to walk all over us too. We should adhere to this, and do our best as part of the family. No one should be casting away their responsibility. We have to prepare ourselves," Trevor said.

The two family’s had always been close. Bailey Everleigh never thought too much about it until the summer that everything changed. She had been raised with her own family, and theirs was always nearby as well. They did almost everything together. She had always thought it was because both were large families. They understood the way things were done in them that people who didn’t have eight-plus kids could never.

It was about family. And I wouldn’t fail.

Maya took a deep breath and managed a light tone. "Okay." Mom accepted the explanation, but did not give up preaching, "Now that the phone is turned on, you will call him back first. If you are not feeling well, you know have to take care of yourself, but also know that your family's emotions are also your responsibility now. The same is true for your schedules. Compromising is the key to a happy family. You chose to get married, then you will live your life from the perspective of your new family. The essence of family is that you have to endure and pay for many things."
