So, the couple lived with their inherited house happily and blissful, without knowing that the mother of Justin against to Janine, because Janine was came from a poor family.

She did not like Janine to become a wife of her son because of the family background that Janine came from a very poor family, and they were so famous, they owned a bank company. Justin’s mother wanted Mekaela to be a wife of her son, because Mekaela is a daughter of a rich family. But Justin did not love anymore Mekaela, because she was unfaithful to him during their previous relationships. That’s why Justin broke it up.

Justine and Janine were very happy couple. Justin continued working with his job as a bank manager, while his wife Janine stayed at home.  One moment, Justin’s mother talked with their neighbors that she did not like Janine as a wife of her son. Without knowing that Janine heard what her mother in law talked with their neighbors, so Janine was so sad and pity     herself. Justin did not know of what his mother’s like that she did not like Janine. After office work Justin hurriedly went home. And he noticed that his wife looked so sad. And he asked his wife what happen to her why she looked sad? And Janine answered that she’s ok.

One moment in time, Justin’s family was planning to go on vacation in Boracay for one week. When Justin asked Janine if she will go with them, Janine told Justin that she will not go with them. She preferred to stay in their house. Are you not happy to go with us for an  island hoping? “Justin asked”. No, I like to be alone by this moment, never mind to me, I’m ok. “Janine replied”. So Justin did not force his wife. So, only Justin and his brother Prince accompany their parents went to the beach. There in Boracay, the families were so happy; they were singing and drinking, but Justin not really happy because his wife did not go with him.

There in their house Janine was thinking that she was not welcomed to Justin’s family, because they were only poor. Her mother in law did not like her, so she was thinking that its better maybe, she will leave her husband. She was sad and felt hurt to Justin’s mother.

After one week of island hoping, the family of Justin went home. So, Justin asked his wife if she’s ok in their house alone. And his wife answered that she’s ok. After a few months later, Janine’s mother in law talked again in their neighbor’s that she did not like Janine. And Janine again heard of their conversation. So, at that time, Janine felt very hurt with her mother in law, and she was crying alone in their room. So, Janine decided that she will go home in the province in her family. So, Janine asked permission to her husband that she will go home in her province to her family because she missed them. Honey I will go home in my place because I really missed my parents, and don’t worry about me because after one week I will come back here. “Janine said”. Ok I will allow you, but promise me after one week you will come back here ha? “Justin replied”.  Ok don’t worry honey I will. “Janine answered”. So, Janine went home in their place. Upon arriving in their place her parents, brothers, and sisters welcomed her because they missed Janine so much. After one week staying in their house Janine went to Manila because she wanted to escape her husband and wanted to leave him. She broke up her promise to her husband because she cannot bare the bitterness of what she felt.

Upon arriving in Manila, she was renting a boarding room and she used to find a job. Finally she found a job there. She was an office clerk of the company.

Two weeks later, upon Justin’s going home after his work he got confused, why his wife did not go home.  He was trying to contact his wife but he cannot contact her anymore. So Justin was very sad, he was thinking what was happening to his wife.  I don’t want to lose her, Justin talked to himself. Six months he cannot contact his wife, they were no communication at all.  Justin was so worried and lonesome almost cannot control to himself of what was happening to his wife.

One day, one of the couple’s friends saw Janine in Manila; their friend told Justin that his wife was  in Manila. So, Justin hurriedly went to Manila and finally found his wife.  At that time when Janine left her husband she was pregnant. Justin found his wife that she almost delivered her baby. Because Justin did not know that his wife was pregnant when she left, He was amazed and very happy because soon they will have a baby already. After three days Janine was finally delivered their first baby, a beautiful baby girl.  So, the couple was very happy because they have already a child. After they went home in their house, Justin still did not really know why his wife was trying to escape him.

One time he knew that why his wife was trying to escape him because his mother did not like his wife, upon knowing he got very angry to his mother. He did not mind his mother anymore.  But his wife wanted to give up their relationship she cannot accept that her mother in law did not like at her.

So, one moment in time, Janine got suicide in their room. She found dead by her husband, so her husband was shocked of what was happening. He was very sad and numb. Because of the tragedy that happened, Justin became insane. He cannot recover because he loved Janine very much. The mother of Justin regretted so much of what was happening to her son and to her daughter in law. So the family was silence full of sorrow, and only the small child of Justin and Janine will be their hope for tomorrow’s life.

THE END……!
