Kabanata 83
One month. One month has passed since I left—no, since I ran away. It’s been a month of agony, of desperate attempt to forget everything that had happened back home. But I am nowhere near that. Hindi ko magawang makalimutan ang lahat. Bawat sandali ay naaalala ko ang sakit, ang pagkadismaya, at ang labis na panghihinayang. Up until now, I am still thinking whether I made the right call or made the biggest mistake.
“Ymmärsinkö oikein (Did I get it right)?” tanong ko sa customers ng fine dining restaurant na pinagtatrabahuan ko. I have been working as a waitress for three weeks now. It’s a major downgrade from the previous job I had, but I have no rights to complain. I chose this path. I decided to be here so all I can do right now is take responsibility for my decisions.
