TDOMC 03

I organized myself and looked for a job so that I would have more supplies in each day that will come. I have to live for the child in my womb.

I tried to stand on my own two feet again without any help from others. Even though I was tired, I worked hard so that I could have a good home for my child. Now because of my hard work we have money to rent an apartment so that we can have shelter every time it rains. A home that could protect us even if it's just in in rains.

Even though I moved away from the place that hurt me, the nightmares that visited me night after night did not stop.

I worked hard to make sure I had money to support me and my child in the future. I have money to buy her food whenever she is hungry. I have money to buy clothes that she can wear whenever she gets cold. I have money to buy her medicine when she gets sick. I have money to buy her a toy. I had to work to meet her needs.

As soon as I give birth to her I will make her feel the care and the love she deserves. I will endure everything for her. I will say that she was a star who gave light to my dark world.

I will protect and take care of her to the best that I can. When she cries out and asked for help I would always come to let her know she was safe as long as I was here beside her.

I will never let her know the nightmare that happened to her mother. I will do everything so that she will not experience what I have experienced.

A few more months passed and it was already the month of my labor. It is only a matter of time and I will give birth to this child in this world. When that day comes I no longer know how I will protect her in the world that will only hurt her when the time comes.

The justice that she deserved was never given to her.

The people he expected to believe in her did not believe even though they knew she was telling the truth.

The people she once leaned on are deaf to the help she is asking from them. The people she expected to listen to her just turned their backs on her.

But what she did not know was that there was a witness who until now was consumed by conscience because he did not even help the woman he loved. He couldn't even help the only person who listened to him. He could not help Maria Clara who once defended him to those who judged him. The woman who stood beside him when he thought everyone had turned their backs on him.

It was never your fault what had happened to you, Maria Clara.

It was the people around you who are at fault because they didn’t listen to you. It is their fault that they did not help you when you asked for help. It is their fault that they have become cowards. It was wrong of them to watch be broken into pieces. That wouldn’t have happened if they had just been brave. They should have protected and save you but they didn't.

Sorry, Maria Clara.
