Fast forward of how things go with my life and Bryle, we are both happy enjoying travelling all the best place in Manila when mom finds out about it. And I was freaking out when she told me that I’ll be staying in the house for a month which is very absurd and nonsense.

“ Mom, you are exaggerating.” I argued.

“ Exaggerating you say? And what did you call yourself? Crazy? Blind? Hopeless romantic and stupid? I didn’t raised you just to settle for a man who is poorer than the rat.” Mom screamed at me that it almost ruined my eardrums.

“ He is not ! oh my gosh, what kind of human being are you mom. Your looking down on someone.” I become teary-eyed ,I didn’t know she could be this harsh.

“ Whatever you say! You can’t just marry a man who is -- gosh Samantha WHAT FUTURE CAN YOU GET FROM A MAN WHO DONT HAVE ANYTHING!" Mom yelled at me and I’m shock to know that my mom is more than what I imagined.

“ mommy, I love him. We’ve been together since high school ,. I knew him already he is kind and responsible.” I said while begging to let us go.

“ YOU CANT MADRY OR EVEN LIKE A MAN LIKE HIM!” mom yelled at me again.

This is really the day that I’ve been so scared to come.

“ mom, Please..”

“ No!”

“ I'M PREGNANT! “ I SCREAMED,

And I saw my mom’s priceless reaction. She turned pale and shock, she is shaking while her eyes narrowed at me. I know I shouldn’t said it, bur I did. I did lie in front of my mother’s face.

“What d-did y-you j-just said?” My mom cracked her voice ,she looks like a robot.

“ M-mom, I-I am pregnant.” I answered while avoiding her stares. She darted me a scrutinizing look. I closed my eyes and breath in and out trying to calm myself because I am not really good at lying.

“ YOU ARE NOT MY DAUGHTER ANYMORE! Get out! and go with that man ,and we'll see if you could survive." She slapped me and even want me to go away. uh-uh ,I didn’t see it coming. Does it mean? She will disown me?

Looking at my mom, I could see that she’s furious. I gulped .

“ mom?”

“ Get your things and leave this instance.” She said coldly and I felt like I will cry but I choose Bryle over her. Maybe that’s crazy but I really did. And what’s worst, Bryle is just currently studying . he finally came back to school.

I went to my room and slowly turned the doorknob and push the door, I looked at my room. Walls are painted in Lavender with a faint flower and bubble prints. My bed is huge and soft and smells good. My side table is screaming luxury and so are my wardrobes. I felt a little sad because I will miss my room. I took all my dresses in put it in my huge suitcase, and I gathered my footwear and my accessories and gems make up and my savings that I’ve been trying to hide from mom. Because she doesn’t want me to save money on hand. She only trusted banks.

Slowly I walked downstairs with a heavy feet and heart, but still I made the choice of staying with Bryle. I won’t leave him even at the worst time.
