Maraming beses ko nang binalak na ilabas ’to… pero ngayon lang talaga ako nabuo ng loob. Kasi hindi na siya nakakagaan ng pakiramdam—para na siyang pasan araw-araw. I’ve been married for three years, and I’d like to believe na I’m a good wife—I take care of our home, I support my husband, I try to be respectful to his family. Pero kahit anong effort ko, it feels like I will never be enough—especially in the eyes of his mother.
From the very beginning, parang may wall na agad between me and my mother-in-law. She was never cruel outright, but she’d say things like: “Sa amin, ganito kami,” “Yung dati niyang girlfriend, mahilig sa ganito,” “Baka hindi lang kayo bagay sa isa’t isa sa ugali.”
At first, I let it go. I told myself: Baka ako lang ’to. Baka hindi niya naman sinasadya. But as time went on, I noticed something that hurt even more than the words.
