Juno Not

That little bit of information rocked our world. The next few months were plagued with enough heart-wrenching twists and turns to fill up a full-length movie, maybe even a sequel or two. And though I'd rather prefer the dry, sardonic wit of Juno, ours was more like the telenovela that all Filipinos know and love. There were uneasy silences, dramatic confrontations, and even, yes, occasional attacks of chest pain.

I barely survived this whole episode. It was as if something inside me had died. Did I blame myself? No. Did I think myself stupid? Yes. Could I have prevented it? I really do not know.

But after death, there is life. And after many months of waiting, we have our own little angel...
