Prologue

"I called you here to announce something."


Whenever suot ni Karina ang black dress na regalo sa kanya ni Isaiah, lagi siyang may dalang masamang balita. That was almost a tradition kaya't nakakaranas ngayon ng labis na tensyon ang magkakapatid. She never failed to deliver something destructive wearing that hideous black dress.

Monika always hated that dress. Kahit maganda ang tela nito, kahit ang flowy nito, kahit maganda ang linings at design, kahit sobrang bagay ito sa kanyang Mama, hindi niya ito matanggap-tanggap dahil napakapangit ng silbi nito. Sayang.


Monika prepared for the worst as her mom was drop dead silent. Something is off. This is big.

"Mom, where's Dad?" Tanong ng bunsong si Dwight.

"About that..." At tuluyan na ngang humagulgol ang kanilang ina.

No, it can't be.

Ang ilaw ng kanilang tahanan ay napupundi na.

Dali-daling inalo ni Monika ang ina, ngunit nagmatigas ito.

"Mga anak, as much as I want to, I can't do this anymore. I'm sorry. Your dad and I..."

No, it can't be.

"We're having an annulment."

Monika was not prepared for this. She will never be prepared for this.

She prepared herself for the worst, but not this.

Siguro nga kagaya sila ng itim na damit na suot ng kanyang mama ang naging takbo ng marriage nila ng kanyang papa.

Kahit gaano pa ito kaganda, kung simula pa lang ay ayaw mo na,

Kung sa simula pa lang ay hindi na maganda ang layunin nito,

Aayawan mo ito.
