Chapter 50.1

Thankful

I wasn't a strong believer in second chances. I always thought that once something is broken, it will never be the same again. Once your trust is broken, it's so hard to restore it back whole. It's not an overnight fix. Some take years and some just never get fixed. That's how crucial second opportunities are for me. But Austin changed my belief.

When I went home, I was so certain I'd never look back. Kasi ano pa ba ang point? Everything is done. Bakit ko pa babalikan? Bakit ko pa pagtutuonan ng pansin? I lived my life differently for almost two years. I forced myself to forget and bury all the pain. To heal... But I was so wrong. It turns out I was healing for the wrong reason. I thought I got cheated on and quite honestly, that destroyed me. Pero mali pala ako. Had I learned the truth early on, I would've saved myself some trouble even just a bit.
